PHILADELPHIA — It’s nice that the Eagles and Cowboys typically play on Sundays. That way, if I want to light a votive candle and pray that Miles Austin develops scurvy, I don’t have to make a special trip to church.

Wish I understood my Cowboys aversion. All I know is that as a real Philadelphian, they inspire the same kind of animus as Super Pretzels. And for exactly the same reason: They’re both tasteless.

People often ask me why I dislike the Cowboys so. As Elizabeth Barrett Browning, a Dallas cheerleader until pantaloons above the ankle prompted her resignation, once wrote, let me count the ways:

Stay classy, Philadelphia.

You can take shots at Romo and Jerry; most of us are used to that by now, but taking a shot at Coach Landry, a man who defined class and greatness, is disgusting and unwarranted.

This was the most pointless article I've read in a very long time. I was all set to enjoy some good smack talk from the other side but this is just idiotic.

[roughneck266]

Hard to believe this person gets paid to write such drivel.

[67CowboysFan]

We found someone in the media that is actually worse than Steve Dennis. :D

[ThreeSportStar80]

I'm not even from Dallas and I'm mad I read that garbage...


All I can say is:

This shouldn't surprise anyone. This is typical, moronic, stupid, Philly crap.

This is just another reason, in a LONG list of reasons, why that franchise and it's city are complete garbage.

Which apparently they're all very happy to be the part of a garbage image who doesn't win squat. So let them be happy with being garbage.

[LeonDixson]

Ah, the City of Brotherly Shove. This guy fits right in with the sewer rats that are typically known as Eagles fans.

[mldardy]

This is why I hate Eagle fan because they are so jealous and hate on the Cowboys every chance they get. Here is to continued lack of Super Bowl trophies Eagle Fan. I love it how they brag about how much 'success' they had in the McNabb era like it was a benchmark for success. They had some embarrassing collapses during that little run they had and made it to 1 Super Bowl out of all that. I will always be rooting against them.

[casmith07]

This kind of stuff doesn't even resonate with our players. You know why?

They're too busy getting ready to C R U S H these bums on Sunday night.

I hope Mike Vick is ready to whine to the media about getting hit. Because he's going to get hit. Hard. And a lot.

**** the :eagles: !!!

[RXP]

I just wasted 2 minutes of my life reading that. Pure crap. Every word of it. Typical though.

[Hoofbite]

What does the name of the city the stadium is located in have to do with anything?

I realize this is just a writer looking to fill space and generate some buzz but does this guy really feel this way? Surely there is no way that he honestly believes this stuff.

Irving? I love the way he emasculates the name. As if there has never been an Eagle player with the name Irving..........paging, Mr. Fryar.

I'm 100% convinced this guy doesn't actually believe that crap.

There's no way anyone with a functioning brain stem would point out the off-field shortcomings of say..............Michael Irvin.......when Michael Vick's multiple convictions and vacation in Leavenworth piss on anything Irvin ever did.

And Landry with the hat? Yes, he used it to cover a bald spot. Similar to the way Andy Reid uses those layers of fat to cover his disgusting parasitic twin.

By halftime Vick will think he is a tackling dummy instead of a qb. :)

You know what would stoke fan and player interest? Take little ball of hate and Gallaway in a tag team match against a pair of Philadelphia media crap tossers.

[Bullflop]

I'll betcha the Philthy fans ate this up, which is exactly why it was conceived to begin with. It's classless trash written by a classless writer to pleasure and amuse a classless public. It's a little taste of Philly through and through.

Evidently, Washington isn't the only place with a Dallas Cowboys OCD affliction. They're sick. Gotta love it.

Of course, he wouldn't be allowed to actually touch it though. Bad Karma doesn't wash off easily.
