Eagles Pic Of The Week




This is an attempt at a regular weekly post here on NTG!

Let's hope this doesn't go the way of the G-Stop Graffiti Watch and the Karate Belt Status Update posts. In defense of the KBSU, I didn't realize at posting time that it would take months upon months to advance belts. So it still could technically qualify as a regular post, once I make orange and Issue 2 hits the page.

Ahhh, those were the old days of blogging... So innocent and fay...

But now onto the real shit. This real shit will last because it's the Eagles, man. If you don't get siked by that, you must not have the capacity to feel anything. You wouldn't even cry at your mother's funeral.

Each week, I will post a fantastic Eagles pic from the week. This week's (top of post) is from the instant right after hamstring-injury-stricken kicker David Akers narrowly made a game-winning 23-yard field goal, after which he collapsed in a heap on the field, smiling and laughing in agony.

That's just the thing about Akers. He's one of those athletes who just won't ever quit when it matters. Like Chase Utley*, only with a shaved head.

[READER: Uh, Akers is sitting next week, JMP...]

JMP: And he deserves it, damn it! Brava, Akers.

And just for good measure, I'm posting this one. Those of you who know me know the whole story behind it.

First and foremost, I love the picture of "Chompers," (uh, I mean B-Dawk). Any picture of Dawk popping some guy is a good picture. Hopefully next week you can post a picture of Dawk laying out First Down Freddie Mitchell and his big mouth. Oh yeah, he doesn't get on the field for Kansas City, either. Sucks to be you, FredEx.

As for Akers, dude is frickin' nails. There aren't many football players (let alone kickers) that would have done what he did. I think the Eagles pic of the week is here to stay. If you start to slack on it, I shall task MLB.com to fuck up another t-shirt order for you.

Fair enough...Not having to deal with MLB.com anymore is enough incentive to keep the posts up.
