Look after the Phillies this year, anything is possible, but I still was going there with the Eagles...
I was so disgusted after last week's loss at Washington that I didn't allow myself to entertain even for a moment, the Eagles playoff chance...
And yet, somehow, by the one o'clock games, I knew who had to do what for the Eagles to have a game that counted at 4:15.
I refused to watch, but at 2:30 I caught the scores and couldn't believe that Tampa, the Vikings, and the Bears were losing.
Then Tampa went ahead -- and my head dropped.
But I kept an eye on the score, ended up catching the final six minutes of the game, and couldn't believe it -- when the Vikings won, and the Bears started to make it interesting -- I was sweating...
By the time the Eagles game started, I was excited -- I couldn't believe it -- it was such a miracle --and yet -- we still had Dallas to beat --
once we scored a touchdown, I breathed easier -- but even after the last second field goal to end the half didn't make me think we had it in the bag -- but I will admit, I couldn't believe how that half ended --
But after the first defensive TD of the third quarter, it was obvious --
I hadn't even run any play-off permutations -- but a quick scan of the competition -- okay the Vikings are good -- but Jeez, we should be able to beat those guys pretty easily ....
Unreal...
