What’s in those files must be so much worse than we already suspect.
Lovely story. Great writing. Thank you.

Sad to hear of Bernie Parent’s passing at age 80. One of my first sports heroes. There was no one bigger here in those Stanley Cup years.

One Snowy Egret, four Great Egrets. My first time at Bombay Hook NWR, but it won’t be my last.

Well done, USA. Way to show up. Satisfying morning scrolling through pics of the big crowds. Great turnout in Phila, and West Chester rocked!
Let’s keep it going.

Horrifying.
I’m sure there will be swift condemnations from across the political spectrum, and a full investigation from the DOJ.
There will be…right?

Game day! My goal is to make it to 6:30 without reading, seeing, or hearing anything about the game. I don’t need multiple hours of hype. I’ll keep busy, then sit down at gametime and live or die with my boys.
C’mon Eagles! 🦅

My blood pressure is about back to normal.
Saquon is a monster, and the turnovers were key. Also, I love snow games! ❄️

Tough physical game. Nice to see them gut it out. Forcing turnovers was huge.
Saquon sliding down when he could have taken it to the house…wow.
On to the Divisional Round.

A good morning to stay inside. Too cold and windy out.

Dammit Eagles. Painful game to watch. So sloppy…dropped passes, so many penalties. Credit to the Commanders, they made the plays when they had to. But yikes…
Big question now is how long will Hurts be out?
