Bart said:Was listening to the radio broadcast and the announcers said the game is getting chippy. Seems the brothers are showing their typical lack of discipline and resorting to cheap shots. A sideline reporter said an Eagles player named Clemons punched a Cowbaoy named Kosier in the face right in front of an official - who did nothing. That's the way it is in the NFL.
I thought he was back. He would make a major difference if healthy. Edited by: FightingtowinWestside said:Curtis is still IR and the affeletic team is being schooled thus far.

If you told me two years ago that I would have been rooting against my hometown, childhood team because they have only two white starters, I would have pulled a Bobby Bowden and laughed in your face. As my username is evidence to, I even came to CF as an "Eagles fan".
The mere notion of slightly pulling for Dallas would have sickened me two years ago. Now everything about this Philadelphia team sickens me instead. The scrub sumo o-line. The past-his-prime black quarterback with the "bright smile". The coal black defense with more holes than Swiss cheese. From time to time, the knowledge of this Caste system brings me pain. Pain for the white athletes that are ignored and abused, and pain for my friends and family that still share in this nonsense as if it was their religion.
The knowledge of the Caste system is a burden, but it is a banner I am proud to carry. No one I know can even begin to understand why the racial makeup of the NFL could bother me so, and sometimes it hurts to not be able to convince them of the truth before their eyes.
Sorry for the rant, but this was a particularly poignant time to reflect on my ideological journey and evolution here at CF. Thanks for everything.
...go Packers.
