Philadelphia Eagles fan for life. earliest game I remember watching was fog bowl. kind of falling out of sports fandom.....too many commercials..... ridiculous salaries....I'm older than all the players. Will still watch but don't allow it to dictate my emotions. Superbowl victory was incredible....never thought it would happen....what does one do after getting to the top of the mountain?


Ah yes, the fog bowl. Remember watching just because it was on TV and I never seen anything like it myself.

when i was a kid i wasnt aware of all the build up to the fog bowl, makes it all seem like a supernatural event

buddy ryan was the man. he had the bus driver circle soldier field three times while honking the horn. during pregame he stood on bears logo in center of field

long story short

i grew up in lancaster, pa and was an eagle fan early. cunningham was so fun to watch. i thought ray rhodes was great. then around 2002 i moved away for a while. i watched most of the andy reid eagles from other time zones

chip kelly was promising, but went to turdville real fast. his firing was a celebratory occasion, so i purchased a bottle of champagne

in late 2017 i moved back to lancaster. then, about three months later, i was in philadelphia watching a super bowl parade. we tried to make it to the museum starting from the stadium complex but only got to logan square. so many beautiful people. the vibe was amazing.

and that was the top of the mountain. all i wanted out of football was a lombardi in philadelphia. it doesnt really matter much to me if they win another. not greedy here, just wanted one. nothing else to conquer in that arena

now im trying to focus on things that actually matter in my life - like running a new food business.................and managing simulated football teams with randomly generated players along with strangers on the internet

i also enjoy spending time with my lady and playing with my digital audio workstation

visit philadelphia if you ever have a chance. travel tip - if you are into music and sounds, dont miss out on hearing the worlds largest organ in the wannamaker building right in the center of it all

hope you all enjoy this league

Pernbronze, that might not be true. the organ is huge and has a lot of vibration. also, it is beautiful to look at...lots of polished bronze. the architecture of downtown philadelphia is awesome

I was being a bit of a smartass. I am deaf but use vibration regularly even to understand normal hearing people talking. I can't be in the same building as an organ for that reason. But I'm not much of a traveler. I don't care much for architecture or such aspects unless it's mentally stimulating such as treehouses and the like. I've lived all over and really just prefer forests and coastal regions.

And pernbronze is in reference to bronze dragons from dragonriders of pern.
