Blade Posted April 24, 2002 Share Posted April 24, 2002 Excellent find TCO! That would be perfect for a polite, well-contributing Philly fan in the same vein as Tom or Dale. Too bad we've never seen one here.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RySkins Posted April 24, 2002 Share Posted April 24, 2002 I still think we would have won that game if Gardner didn't get caught from behind on that play.:hammer: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zen-like Todd Posted April 24, 2002 Author Share Posted April 24, 2002 Fer real ryskins. I think that pissed me off more than any other single play last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cskin Posted April 24, 2002 Share Posted April 24, 2002 But...if you look at that play again, it's not necessarily Gardner's speed that is the issue. It's physics! Gardner caught the ball at near a dead stop, than had to go up through the gears to reach the endzone. The Eagle defender already had a head of steam by trailing the play so he easily closed the gap and was able to drag Gardner down. Had that been a slant, with Gardner catching the ball in stride, I doubt anyone would have caught him. I'm still weary of his speed, but I'm not about to stone him until I see him this year after a year of NFL conditioning and speed work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eagles_Legendz Posted February 6, 2003 Share Posted February 6, 2003 I was revisiting last years draft talks for a moment, and I stumbled upon this. Blade, is there a way I can have that pic, or any other Eagles one as my new icon? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goldenster95 Posted February 6, 2003 Share Posted February 6, 2003 Gardener got caught because he was admiring himself on the Jumbotron instead of looking to the end zone. The icon unfortunately doesn't show that he did avert his eyes to the big screen. A better picture clearly shows the rook's mistake. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is as congenial and respectful as Tom or Big Easy (the good one, not the obnoxious BigEasy) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Henry Posted February 6, 2003 Share Posted February 6, 2003 EL, TexasEagle and Blazers21 are all pretty decent Eagle-fan regulars. I wouldn't mind seeing any of them get a 'toasted visitor' icon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eagles_Legendz Posted February 6, 2003 Share Posted February 6, 2003 Thanks guys. Don't know how much trouble it would be, but if Blade or Die Hard or Art could do it, I'd be much appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EagleSteve Posted February 6, 2003 Share Posted February 6, 2003 Originally posted by Henry EL, TexasEagle and Blazers21 are all pretty decent Eagle-fan regulars. I wouldn't mind seeing any of them get a 'toasted visitor' icon. Thanks, Henry. What I find interesting is that this board does have its share of what you would all consider "typical" Eagles fans, but there are more of us normal ones than any other team. In fact, Tom seems to be the only Giant fan here. Cowboy fans contribute mostly smack, but disappear quickly. Most of the other team's fans, if any, only pop up when they play the Redskins that week or their team does something good. EL, TexasEagle, EagleRob, and I try to bring a different perspective. Phantom and Phanatic appear occasionally, but don't often talk smack, as does the extremely hostile Richard M. Nixon. Only Stinky keeps the Eagles smack going around here, along with any pre-game "visitors." As EL indicated in another thread, Eagles MB's are bad. So much smack from Eagles (and other) fans that very little football gets discussed, even on well-moderated boards. Here, thanks to Blade, Die Hard, Art, Om, Buddha, et. al. the discussion is usually civil and intelligent. That's one reason why we all stay here and pester you 'Skins fans. Most of you know football and don't mind talking about college, NFC East, NFL, etc. in addition to the Redskins. In fact, Blade, if you're listening I'm almost ready to buy a t-shirt set. I wouldn't be caught dead in one, of course, but my wife will enjoy them. That Avatar wouldn't be bad - at least I'd know that the end result of the play was not a TD.
