Philly's...Quack Attack

It's official...the Philadelphia Eagles have their man!   None other than the former coach of the college team known as the Oregon Ducks.

Chip Kelly and his famed fast-break offense will test the waters of the NFL.

Questions?  Will he keep Michael Vick?  Will that Oregon offense succeed in ..."Big Boy" football?

 Who knows.....just speculation.   

 

DUCK.. DUCK.. EAGLE!

Eagles Land Chip Kelly.. Oregon Coach Changes Mind

These "Birds" are Self Destructing

Things are going from bad to worse  for the Atlanta Hawks.  In the midst of a very serious slump....what do the Hawks do?

They suspend their best player....Josh Smith.   Supposedly " J-Smooth" was thrown out of practice the other day.

Coach Larry Drew has definitely lost control of this team.  Don't know all the details...but...

This ain't good.

From the AJC:

Smith suspended for Hawks
Dave Martin

Smith suspended for tonight's game

Hawks suspend forward for tonight's game against Brooklyn for conduct detrimental to the team.

Getting no Love....in the ATL

There is a championship game to be played on Sunday...between the Atlanta Falcons and the San Francisco Giants.   

The talking heads of the world wide leader (ESPN) cannot control themselves gawking uncontrollably over the 49ners.   According to most everyone....the Falcons don't stand a chance.  San Fran has better players....a better coach...a better QB....a better defense.

This is the same 49ner team that went into New York and got destroyed by the Giants.  Oh...by the way...the Falcons beat these same Giants,   34-0.   This is the same 49ner team the Seattle Sea Hawks humiliated a few weeks ago.   (See last week)  The Falcons shut out Seattle 20-0 in the first half  on the way to....yes a win.

Atlanta is went 13-3 this season...best in the NFL.   Home field advantage is theirs.  

Let San Fran get the headlines.....the magazine covers.   Come Sunday,  Falcons....hit 'em in the mouth.....repeatedly!   Then....hit 'em again.   Then step on their neck until they puke!

I have a feeling the "Dirty Birds" will play with so much intensity ......so much energy....

The Dome will be rocking!

Let them have their SI cover.....The ATL will have the last laugh.

 

Jinxes? Kaepernick, Harbaugh this week’s SI cover boys

SICOVER
A year after two painful punt returns and a missed field goal prevented a bro’-bowl Super Bowl, the 49ers are on Sports Illustrated’s national cover and the Ravens are on the regional cover this week. More »

 

A New Low!

Last night the Atlanta Hawks played a basketball game.   Well sort of.  The Hawks were on a basketball court, but it is debatable that they actually participated in the game.

This was quite an embarrassment.

Record-setting night for Bulls in 97-58 thrashing of Hawks

Forget the dry board and the hours of watching film, it was time for Tom Thibodeau to unleash a new coaching tactic on his team Monday morning. Call it scared straight. “In the walk-through, his face, the tension in his eyes, the way he was …Read More

5....five!  as in 5 points scored in the second quarter!  A month ago this team looked to challenge the best in the east.  Now...it is quite possible they will never win a game again!

What a joke!

It Is....What it Is!

Fact....The SEC has now won the last 7....yes seven BCS Championships.   The National media totally dismisses this as a Southern Myth.  

Really?   Really?     The real National Championship game  this year ....was the first week of December.

Remember?  In Atlanta.   Georgia and Alabama?  Two SEC powerhouses. Georgia fell five yards short.

And last night?

Last night?
