Top 10 Reasons To Hate The Philadelphia Eagles
I wasn’t planning today to write the top-10 reasons to hate the Philadelphia Eagles, but this post really got on my nerves. According to InsidetheIggles blogger Ian, Eagles fans are good people.
He argues that because a Bears fan went to an Eagles game and he was not killed, this is proof that Eagles fans are not the nasty pigs a majority of the world knows they are. Yeah, mind-boggling, I know. The post is so biased and ugly that I just fell on the floor in shock.
Folks, the post is bull shit. So, I present to you the top-10 reasons the Philadelphia Eagles suck and should be hated:
10. “Nest of Death” is a nickname the scummy Eagles fans actually give themselves. They think they are scary and bad. It is Section 700 at Veterans Stadium in Philadelphia, a haven for rabid Eagles fans. Really, they are just a cesspool of drug addicts and drunks with absolutely no morals.
9. Snowballs. The FBI should have arrested the entire Eagles organization and the fans for the snowball throwing havoc they leveled on the Dallas Cowboys. These were dangerous flying objects that could have seriously injured someone. This is also a form of terrorism.
8. Midgets. Seriously, watch this video. Are all Eagles fans midgets? That’s reason to hate the entire organization, not because we dislike midgets, but because these midgets think they are tough and cool. Man I hate the Eagles.
7. Donovan McNabb. Not only is he overrated, he’s a little girl. One of the biggest cry babies in the NFL, McNabb is treated as a martyr when he plays well and satan when he plays poorly. He’s just a guy we can easily hate because of his stupid Chunky Soup commercials, his ugly mother commercials and his homosexual photo shoots.
6. The Eagles mistreated Terrell Owens. Here is a guy who just told it how it is, and the Eagles organization ganged up on him. And when he was suspended from the team, and left, the organization sued him to get his signing bonus back. Unbelievable. Who would like a team that does crap like that? It’s just wrong and petty.
5. Load Left. It was a bread-and-butter play in which Emmit Smith would run behind Nate Newton. On Dec. 10, 1995, Cowboys coach Barry Switzer called the play twice in a row. Instead of punting the football on a fourth-and-1 at the Cowboys’ 29-yard line with two minutes to play and the score tied at 17-17, Switzer called the play for the second time in a row. The Eagles stuffed it again. Three plays later, Eagles kicker Gary Anderson scored a 42-yard field goal to give Philadelphia the 20-17 victory. Whatever. It is what it is. But this is a good reason to hate the Eagles. It is also a reason to hate Barry Switzer, but oh well.
4. The Interception. On Nov. 3, 1996, Eagles scumbacker James Willis intercepted a Troy Aikman pass in the endzone and returned it 14 yards before he lateraled the ball to corner Troy Vincent who returned it for the 104 yard touchdown that put the game away for the Eagles when the Cowboys had momentum to take the lead.
3. The Bounty Bowl: During the Thanksgiving game in 1989, Eagles Coach Buddy Ryan had taken out a “bounty” on Cowboys players placekicker Luis Zendejas and quarterback Troy Aikman. This is typical play of the Eagles and purely disgusting. It rubs off on their fans.
2. On October 25, 1987, the Eagles and head coach Buddy Ryan disgraced the NFL and Hall of Fame legend Tom Landry. Scummy Ryan called a time-out on the last play of a game against the Cowboys to score another touchdown when the Eagles already had the game won. How is this respectful? This kind of disrespect rubs off on the fans.
1. October 10, 1999, is a date that lives in infamy for the NFL. On this day, the Eagles organization and Eagles fans really showed their true colors when Hall of Fame wide receiver Michael Irvin fell with a serious neck injury. The injury ended his career. Yet, the Eagles players and fans found this hilarious. They cheered. This display was so disgusting that the home town paper Philadelphia Daily News proclaimed in a headline “Unspeakable, even for us.”
Ian’s quote on his site: “I still celebrate the day Michael Irvin left Veterans stadium on a stretcher. It cut a major jerkoff’s career short, and symbolizes the end of an era(90s Cowboys). To me Michael Irvin is a piece of shit, and I am a disappointed that he didn’t die that day.”
Now, I’m not exactly the biggest Michael Irvin fan in the world. Hell, I actively dislike him and I hated the Cowboys of the 90’s. But I’ve been having a feud with Ian about this sort of behavior for a few weeks now. It’s disgusting and the more he talks the more he’s showing us that he’s severely doing his fanbase a disservice and representing the worst elements of the eagles fans.
July 2nd, 2008 at 7:16 pmWow. I missed that comment. Jesus. Was he serious? He’s dead meat.
July 2nd, 2008 at 7:29 pmHe was serious. It’s in the comments section of the Swoop versus Zee mascot article. Towards the end of the comments section. That was only the worst of many quotes he made there.
July 2nd, 2008 at 7:36 pmThe Eagles are Al Qaeda’s favorite team for sure. All they do is perpetuate the stereotype
July 2nd, 2008 at 7:45 pmJeez, even their own players were disgusted. What does that say?

July 2nd, 2008 at 7:47 pmLike we have said before, simply the trash of the nfl, better yet the trash of america…maybe the heart and soul of that team brian dawkins will end is career the way irvin did and then I would love to look at the faces of eagle fans if that happened…B-E-A-G-L-E-S BEAGLES!!!!
July 2nd, 2008 at 8:08 pmI wouldn’t wish that on anybody. Do you guys believe in kharma? I do. Just because Ian is an insensitive, lifeless, excuse of a human being doesn’t give us the right to stoop to his level. Obviously he needs help. I think he’s on the crack. Maybe we should notify the authorities? NAW!!! He’s just STUPID. I think?
July 2nd, 2008 at 8:41 pmHe’s gotta be a dumb kid. He really doesn’t know what he’s saying. That’s the only thing I can think of. When you’re young you don’t really understand the concept of a serious injury or death so it’s easy to hurl those statements around. Because, you know, you’re invulnerable, right?
Either that or he’s intentionally provoking people. It’s easy to talk big on the internet when you don’t have to face anyone you’re mouthing off to.
July 2nd, 2008 at 9:50 pmI’m with Steam though. Don’t stoop to his level. Don’t prove him right by becoming him and wishing injuries on his team. Even Cowboys fans are better than that.
July 2nd, 2008 at 9:52 pm<—have a new found respect for two-lipp…u actually do have some moral backbone in your stem…sr78 take note its just somethings u shouldnt say about ppl especially if the person u are talking about is more respectable than u ..learn to take the high road…the coke machine IS my fav player from 90s DC that display is worse than when haynesworth stepped on Gurode or whatever…and ya’ll 4got to mention McDonno pulling the racecard about being a black qb and making excuses… im tired of honkiefied black dudes using that only to their convenience u never heard that when he had his better years thats just crying just learn to not upchuck when u’re nervous
July 2nd, 2008 at 10:17 pmThe Football gods would never allow those shitty eagles to win a superbowl
July 3rd, 2008 at 6:24 amExcuse the irrelevancy of this comment, but I thought your readers might enjoy the post Grubes made over at http://thelebsports.com/technology-in-sports/how-the-ticket-does-drops/160
July 3rd, 2008 at 7:20 amThe worse the Eagle ever did to the Jags was have their quarterback puke on our field.
Cleveland, on the other hand… screw those guys. They throw batteries at people.
July 3rd, 2008 at 9:59 am1310 TheTicket is the best sports station that covers the Cowboys, and these guys are funny as hell too on some of those shows. Ya’ll should send the good one’s(drops) to Ebaum’s World. Like the Josh Howard one. “It’s crazy man” If you guys haven’t heard of 1310, they have frequent interviews with Mickey Spagnola and if you are also a Rangers fan like myself, they talk with Nolan almost weekly and replay the interviews. I highly reccommend 1310 TheTicket, and I often listen online as I am browsing and blogging. If you do go there and listen, take my advice and not theirs on going to watch twogirlsonecup.com, Gordo loves all the e-mails he gets cussing him after they go watch this video. DO NOT GO THERE!!! It is the sickest crap you will ever see. Even sicker than Ian’s site!
July 3rd, 2008 at 10:25 amHey Steam I was that crap a while back…I could only take first 20 secs before I started to gag.
July 3rd, 2008 at 11:20 amNo jeanne, The Eagles fans throw batteries. Check into that more.
July 3rd, 2008 at 11:31 amRG, I am with you. I mean even the Eagles players were embarrased by their fans. NFL players are just doing their job. If you want to wish an injury on anyone make it the fans themselves, not the players. Better to wish people to get thier humanity back instead anyway
July 3rd, 2008 at 1:04 pmSorry, I should have clarified. Cleveland threw batteries at US.
July 3rd, 2008 at 2:16 pmYea Number9, definately the sickest of the sick. If you really want to get someone, that’ll do it.
As far as this wishing an injury on someone discussion, I don’t get it at all. I think that if you think that way, that seriously you should seek a good shrink. Stupid and his one or two henchmen that hope TO goes out with a broken neck are sending the wrong message to their fellow fans YES, but as AGAIN,… Ron White says… “You Can’t Fix Stupid.” I have made the assessment that Stupid is what Stupid is, or as Forest’s momma says “Stupid is as Stupid does.” We can’t change him.
Since the football scene is dead until training camp starts, someone should start a joke forum. I am sick of Stupid and his Stupid mascot Swoop and all this other crap. We all could use a good laugh.
No more Kissing Susan Kolber bits I know Hat, but man this Chiefs, Jags, and now the Eagles Cowboy bash has just gotten so lame man. Octopus, your a funny guy, make it happen. I know your out there.
July 3rd, 2008 at 2:58 pmTo hear the Ron White skit I am talking about, go in about 8 minutes into that clip.
While Ron’s explanation of “can’t fix Stupid” is pretty funny, it is the truth. You can NOT fix Stupid!
July 3rd, 2008 at 3:06 pmJust as a warning, don’t be fooled by Ian’s “Apology.” It sounds sincere but then if you click on the full article there’s a picture of the Irvin injury with a “Gotcha!” note on it. Just wanted to brace you guys before you stumbled onto it.
July 3rd, 2008 at 9:19 pmMaybe Ian got his “CRACK” from Michael Irvin?!?! Wow what a great site, like 3 losers from yardbarker who are obsessed with Eagles and their fans….What a life you people have. Hope you all go to hell and a hurricane wipes out both the new stadium and the team….
July 4th, 2008 at 3:41 pmand the fans…
July 4th, 2008 at 3:45 pmUmmm…o.k. seriously? ANYONE who wishes an ENTIRE fanbase something horrible because of what some IDIOTS did at a game once is seriously in need of counseling…that or you just need to plain GET A LIFE Cowboy fans!!!
July 4th, 2008 at 8:02 pmActually “Lovemesome”, I think CowboysBLOW is talking about the Cowboys fans being wiped out, we’re here to bash the fleagals but i don’t think anyone has wished something horrible to happen to them.
July 5th, 2008 at 4:55 amSad that Eagles fans cannot even comprehend their own destruction. We are seeing it right before our eyes. Time to move on. I am making some pork ribs right now.
July 5th, 2008 at 9:34 amare u fucking serious right now… midgets? interceptions? are u seriously that low of a life that u have to come up with this fake list of dumbass excuses of why the eagles are better then the dumbass cowgirls with tony homo and t.o king of broke back mountain 2…and u talk about mcnabb having gay photoshoots? look at some of t.o’s..get a life fagg the eagles are the better team between the two…t.o is gonna have alottta fun against asante samuel…make sure romo doesnt bring a girlfriend to the game if u actully wanna come close to winning the game…the division is ours this year…GO EAGLES
July 6th, 2008 at 3:25 pmWow Brent, that was intimidating and powerful. I am so sorry to disappoint you.

July 7th, 2008 at 9:07 pmBrent,
If your so succesful then why do you talk like all the rest of the morons in here that are Cowboy haters. You want to hate the Boys thats fine but at least do it in an intelligent manner. And I sure would like to know what your version of succesful is…I bet we would differ in opinion on that.
July 8th, 2008 at 7:14 amOh and Brent I thought you work at Mcdonalds because you talk like the idiots that work there…Its why I do not take my kids there except on rare occasions….
July 8th, 2008 at 7:16 amI am a assistant maneger at Dick’s Sporting goods..i just got pissed that you dallas fans have to post this bullshit and over half of the reasons arent even real reasons at all…
July 8th, 2008 at 8:12 pmoh yeah Brent… WELL I DRIVE A DODGE STRATUS!!!
July 9th, 2008 at 8:47 amBrent its a simple problem to resolve. Stop coming to this site if you do not like what we have to say. Im sure your whatever team has its own site that you can go bash the Cowboys on. And I wont even comment on your job…
July 9th, 2008 at 2:41 pmHry blow, hope you Eagle droppings are all used for taliban practice, you “fick sucks”
July 9th, 2008 at 2:55 pmIan isn’t the only blogger who wishes death on the Cowboys evidently. Check out some of the words from this piece of crap. And Hat, this is the same douch who supposedly brought to light the stupid mistake the Dallas coaches made in “Showing the Entire Draft Board !” We all know better now, but he is laughing and encouraging the same behavior. Listen to this:
There is an epic blogstravaganza underway between Iggles Blog & Bounty Bowl. Imagine the Lincoln Douglas debates only funny and with more compliments back and forth. (Iggles Blog & Bounty Bowl)
July 10th, 2008 at 10:11 pmAND THEN
Comment #38 on Ian’s “Apology” Post BleedinGreen Says:
Brilliant.I just imagine the cowfolk double take across monitors everywhere in the US. I salute you sir. I salute you.
Yea, BleedingGreenNation, You guys really know how to represent! Unbelievable! And to think, it all started over Chief Zee and the Eagles mascot Swoop! Of coarse, BleedingGreen probobly didn’t even read that part. Either way, he’s still just as Wrong as Stupid. I think I’ll change that to Dumb and Dumber. When BleedingGreen met Ian.
I retract that, I WAS WRONG
But still not as wrong as Ian.
These are two different blogs. Hopefully this crap is over. Sorry guys, false call by me.
