Philadelphia Eagles Report Card: End of the Andy Reid Era?

I thought it was Father’s Day again on Sunday with that ugly Bengals tie. That may have been the worst game of the entire Andy Reid era. It definitely was Donovan McNabb’s worst day ever. I think we can officially kiss this season goodbye after that game. Will we also be [...]

It’s A Wonderful Life: Go Back In Time

If you don’t see It’s A Wonderful Life every single holiday season then you must be some kind of commie pinko. You probably hate your mom, baseball, apple pie, and hot dogs too, don’t ya?

With the Bubonic Plague well under control for more than 600 years, it’s safe once again to welcome the holiday season with a traditional outdoor German Christmas Market.
