Why am I always carrying on about Billy Penn? Why have I put up photos of the bloated dick Quaker in my back yard? Why do I have a fucking statue of the insatiable douchebag in my house? Why have friends of mine covered up photos of their own children with [...]

This is my last free weekend. On the 9th the worm turns. It is upon me again; yet another football season. And I say “upon” as in “on top of”. Such is the curse of an Eagles fan. It falls on us like a ton of bricks each fall [...]

From NYT:
Olbermann on NBC
“Countdown With Keith Olbermann” the highly rated cable news program, will be shown on network television on Sunday before a preseason NBC football game between the Philadelphia Eagles and the Pittsburgh Steelers. Since Mr. Olbermann will have a regular role in NBC’s football coverage once the season begins — appearing as [...]

I’ve been avoided reading, thinking or writing about the Philadelphia Eagles and the upcoming football season. Mostly because I don’t want to face that faded photograph of Bill Penn in my back yard.
See previous Billy Penn Project posts, such as this one, for an explanation.
It can all wait till September- the [...]

It’s over folks. I gave it everything I had, we all did. But the two photographs of Billy Penn I placed, facing eastward, in Flagstaff, Arizona were not enough to win over the Fat Angry Quaker.
I’ve already got plans for next year. More Billy, more places. Because that’s what Philly fans do, they plan for [...]

Tomorrow is the second round of the Eagles playoffs dreams against the New Orleans Saints. The Saints are hot right now, and I’m a bit scared of them. The Giants are punks, and they lost like the dogs that they are. But the Saint’s have one of the greatest stories in sports [...]

This is the first round of the NFC playoffs. This is huge.
We’ve got the double bad mojo of Billy Penn’s curse and Sports Illustrated. What the hell did we ever do to Sports Illustrated?
This is go time. Billy Penn will now grace one of Flagstaffs premier football viewing establishments, Brinky’s famed Garage Mahal.
Desperate times call [...]

The Eagles split their regular season games with the Giants with an overtime loss in September and a convincing win in December. Is Garcia the difference? Or is it Billy Penn?
I got an interesting letter from my father today:
From: Dad
Subject: Curses
Now that you have or are solving the curse of Billy Penn, what about the [...]

The Birds tuned up the Falcon’s in a meaningless New Years game and took the NFC East title. Again.
The game was meaningless only because the Cowboys lost to the Lions earlier in the day. And how good did that feel?
That’s right, it felt great.
We’re going to the playoffs!
And, what is this? A curse you say? [...]

My man Brinky is coming over to pick me up in a matter of minutes for the last game of the regular season. We’re going to join the boys at Fratelli’s on the east side. The Eagles have made the playoffs and a win today gives them the NFC East Title.
Pretty cool.
Last week we saw [...]
