It is incredible the deals he has made. I think history will go back and look at this last Eagles team as one of the greats. "Belts to asses" pretty much week after round 4. Dominant on both sides of the ball. Wild. I loved our defence but loved our attack just as much. It was surreal to support such a dominant team. His ability to draft, sign and trade is mental especially as a 76ers fan. Get him to the shire.

I became an Eagles fan in 2001 because of Dawkins and how mental he was so it has been some ride.
Yes - have you seen the ‘A Football Life’ episode on Brian Dawkins? Amazing player!!!

Just found out Fizman supports Aston Villa in the EPL like myself and I already new RoboShark supports the LA Dodgers in the MLB like myself. Just curious at what other teams people here support other than the Sharks?

Doesn’t have to be just the leagues I have an interest in. For example if you follow the Ice Hockey put the team you follow in that.

For me I support the following teams;

EPL - Aston Villa

MLB - LA Dodgers

NFL - Miami Dolphins

NBA - Miami Heat
Same NFL and NBA teams as you …. Unfortunately

Have to share this, classic sharks shit the bed story from Seattle Mariners yesterday. MLB fans will get this.

Leading 4-0 after the first innings, pretty much can shut it down from this point, it’s like leading 12-0 at half time.

Our gun pitcher pitches well into the 7th innings (means all is going well), our replacement pitcher comes in and he hasn’t conceded a run all year. Our catcher has hit 2 home runs and we lead 6-3 in the top of the 9th. That’s equivalent to leading by 13 with 3 mins left in NRL.

Enter the bed shitting… we concede 3 runs by walking 2 batters to lock it up 6-6, off to extra inning for the 2nd night in a row noting last night we conceded 7 runs in the extra innings (yes 7!!).

Tonight though, we are better than conceding 7, that’s right. Just 6!!! Lose 12-6 after leading by 3 only 2 innings ago, we needed a single out in the 9th to win 6-5, Cronullafied.

I've seen that so many times this year in the MLB. Not sure if the bullpens are weaker or whether it's just coincidence. But the amount of games going extra innings and the amount of walk offs is amazing

That loss would hurt because they have the Astros right up their arse

Edit again. Just saw they walked it off against the twins in 11 lol

They did! I was just about to say they went to extra innings 3 games in a row.

I love baseball, but never make an effort to watch it.

About 4 months or so ago I started a new job for a Company based out of Silicon Valley. I'm hoping for a trip over there at some point or, fingers crossed, relocation.
If and when it happens a trip out to watch a MLB game is high on the list of priorities.

When I was younger and really enjoyed it.
I'm pretty sure the character Rick Vaughn from Major League was loosely based on me haha.

Today’s game… you got it more drama. 1-0 heading into the 9th, oh yeah they scored to level it up but we jagged a run in the bottom, 2-1 win. Avoiding. 4th straight extra innings game.

Well they do have some blue in them so says a lot. They have the Orioles next so surely they sweep them
