On the Eagles losing (again)

So the Eagles blew another chance to go to the Super Bowl last weekend (that's four NFC championship games losses under Andy Reid...not that I'm counting or anything). Aside from the game against that Rams team (also led by Kurt Warner), the birds were favored in every match-up. Once again, as in the other three losses, the Eagles came out flat; they seemed shocked by everything the other team ran. I guess I'm supposed to say that this loss hurts the most.... but to be honest, it really doesn't. The Eagles losing a meaningful game? Yeah, and the sun also rose today. Sad to say it, but I think I'm numb to the Eagles now. They're like going back to an abusive, cheating girlfriend. You'll have some fun and there'll be good memories, but in the end, like allllll the times before, you'll just end up in pain and with a broken heart. Eventually you kinda just say 'fuck it' and expect her to berate you and sleep around. That's the Philadelphia Eagles. They crush your living soul and you don't bat an eye. Thank god for the Phillies...
