I mean, this time, the Cardinals had to make the late-game comeback. This time, Larry Fitzgerald made the huge touchdown catch that likely had people across the country thinking the Cards were gonna win this game. This time, it was Kurt Warner who had to watch on the sidelines as the other team drove down [...]

The Pundit begrudgingly offers his Super Bowl prediction
Listen – either way, I’m pretty screwed here. I’ve been picking against the Cardinals for three straight weeks. And for three straight weeks, I’ve lost.
So I guess I should pick the Cardinals.

Were we judging the Eagles with “Cheer Goggles” on? The Pundit wonders…
By now, I’m sure you know what beer goggles are. If not, I guess you’ve been living under a rock for quite some time or something. (Editor’s note: Kudos for surviving that predicament, by the way). Anyway, the fine folks over at Urban Dictionary do a wonderful job of defining this occurrence.
1. Beer Goggles
Phenomenon in [...]

Shave them playoff beards – The Pundit finds five reasons for the Eagles’ defeat
I’ve gotta say, I’m still a bit shell shocked. Sure, this game had potential disaster written all over it; after all, it seemed as though this team was destined for a title. Got a little bit ahead of ourselves, didn’t we? Tomorrow morning, I’ll put out a post arguing that we had misinterpreted this team [...]

Could this season have ended in a more painful fashion? The Pundit offers some postgame thoughts
Wow. I haven’t felt this sinking-in-my-gut pain in a while. I haven’t missed it, that’s for sure. And as has been their fashion all season long, the Eagles appeared to be finished, and managed to come back once again. For the briefest of moments, they took control of the game, and had the lead. But [...]

Seriously, the national media hates Philly – The Pundit takes The Sports Guy to task
Sigh. I swear, the national media just loves trashing Philly teams and fans. Loves it. Partly, I’m sure, because we respond so passionately to it. We’re like that friend you have who, anytime you burn him, gets all worked up about it, and you find yourself saying, “Yo, I’m just messing with you, man.” Like, [...]

A game for the Birds – The Pundit projects an Eagles win in his NFC Championship Preview
While pondering how the Eagles vs. Cardinals game will go down, I hit a few bumps on the objective road I attempt to navigate. (Editor’s note: Oh, right, Objective Road…that intersects with Corny Cliche Lane, right?) Number one: I really want the Eagles to win. Number two: I really can’t imagine the Cardinals making the [...]

So what if Anquan Boldin is playing? The Eagles don’t want no stinkin’ handout wins anyway
Handout playoff berths are acceptable, however.
So Boldin is going to play, according to an article over at ESPN. Whatever. Sure, the task would be less daunting without him playing; still, it’s far more honorable to beat a team with all of their weapons.
Though, speaking of weapons, not having to deal with Plaxico Burress sure was [...]

Still riding the high – The Pundit gives his final thoughts from Sunday, and looks ahead to the Cardinals…
You know, I really hate Mondays. Hate ‘em. I never get enough sleep because my body has adjusted to my weekend schedule – you know, go to bed in the morning, and wake around noon. So right off the bat, I’m walking into work groggy. Today was no exception, of course – I couldn’t fall [...]

Why can’t us? E-A-G-L-E-S EAGLES WIN, BABY!!! The Pundit has some quick hits from the game
Ohhhhhhhhh, baby. The Eagles knocked off the Giants, 23-11, and are headed to the NFC Championship game to take on the Cardinals.
Holy friggin’ crap, man.
I’m still having a hard time believing we made the playoffs, and now we’re one win away from the Super Bowl. The SUPER BOWL! Damn I’m hyped.
Some quick hits here, because [...]
