The Eagles sure look good against the San Francisco 49ers, leading 24-3 at halftime. What a way to start the game with a 50-yard flea flicker. Their offense is dominating, with 338-yards of offense, including a 71-yard TD run by Brian Westbrook. And all of this without their top receiver, Donte Stallworth, who is out with a hamstring injury.
But there is a bigger game in town today. The Phillies finally moved into the wild-card lead yesterday after Los Angeles lost to the Arizona Diamondbacks.
One week left in the regular season and the Phillies could actually be playing playoff baseball for the first time since 1993.
They lead Florida 10-5 right now in the bottom of the 8th. I thought Florida would give the Phillies more of a headache. LA is tied 1-1 with Arizona.
We were in Hocking Hills this weekend and I caught myself, even away from my normal life, really wanting to check the scores and see how the Phils were doing.
Only time will tell but I sure hope to be watching them in the postseason.
In other news in the NFL, boy is it great to see the New York Giants losing 35-0 to Seattle. Imagine what could have been had the Eagles beaten them last week. New York would be 0-3. I definitely believe the Eagles are the far superior team.
It's a big day in Philadelphia. And so far, it's been a heck of a day.
