That was cheering you heard from the Philly Fans. I will say that there was a lot less of them than usual though.

It ain't RFK, but I think I'll stop calling, "Fed Ex", "Fed Hex" seeing as we're 4-0 at home this year....

Speaking of which, anyone who went, I'd LOVE to hear some stories about Eagles fans...

I only saw one fight - and it was between two Philly fans! They were arguing over what the eagles should do on offense. They started throwing punches and both got thrown out. All the Skins fans were loving it; we were falling over ourselves laughing. The other Philly fans nearby just hung their heads.

I had a blast with the Philly fans:
- Sang the T.O. song incessantly. Great fun.

Fun taunts for which they had nothing to say. Told them:
- It was okay that they lost - at least they weren't in last place... Oh wait, YOU ARE!!!

- It's okay, just go home and count up your Superbowl trophies. Shouldn't take long!

- What's that sound I hear?? The window of opportunity closing??? Well, it's a good thing you won all those Superbowls while you had the chance.


On the bus, had some more fun ribbing a Philly fan wearing a Donovan jersey. Our dialogue (which the whole bus heard):

ME: Hey, Donovan this is important [I start making choking sounds].
PHILLY FAN: You must have gotten a bad chicken wing [commenting on the choking sounds].
ME: Nope, Just some bad chunky soup.

After years of taking crap from these guys, last night was such a relief. All in all, just a hell of a good time.

I agree. I was like, "DAMN! That's a lot of Eagles fans cheering."

Philly gets their ass handed to them a couple of times, they'll find a rock to crawl back under

Also (not mine, but I heard it, loved it and repeated it often):

"You can't spell TOOL without T.O."

I was at home and I definately heard the "Philly sucks" chants. It sounded loud as hell.

Welcome to the board

[firstdown]

At one point after Philly challenged a call it sounded like Philly fans where chanting "replay sucks" and I said something to my buddy about how you could here all the Philly fans. I guess I heard it wrong and it was the skins fans chanting Philly or TO sucks.

[dblanch66]

The "Eagles Suck" chant was very clear. Good job to all that were there. We need our home to be a nightmare for opposing teams, like the good ole RFK days.

[TheMalcolmConnection]

Yeah, I got so pumped hearing EAGLES SUCK.

[Warpath]

I was at the game and yea it was definitely loud. I got up monday morning and rewatched the eintire game as I put it on dvd. You can definitely make out the Philly sucks chant. It was also said that we were 90.928 deep! Thats amazing! Undefeated at home! Thats so great![/IMG]

This is my 2nd year as a season ticket holder and I’m amazed at the difference a year makes at the stadium. I was up in the 422 section and then over in 404 for the 2nd half and was amazed at how rowdy the crowd was. There must have been at least 4 bona fide fights to the point where we had security guards in every aisle. Beer was being thrown, fights were breaking out all over, I even saw a fan grab an Eagles jacket from the back of a seat and throw it over the back wall. I almost felt bad for the Eagles fans there, but was happy to see FedEx starting to creep towards resembling RFK. The walk down the stairwells after the game was out of control also, it was definitely not a friendly environment for the Eagles fans and FedEx is definitely starting to get a little street cred, but I wont be satisfied until after the Dallas game. The “we want Dallas” chants for the past 7 years have been WEAK. We’ll see…

"WE WANT A LARGER FONT" "WE WANT A LARGER FONT"

Jacket over the wall... That's great!

I hope we dont start becoming known as somewhere thats not a "friendly atmosphere". The last thing I want to be on the same level as, is Eagle fan.
That being said, we FINALLY have a home feild advantage, people have been crazy ever since Chicago opened the season this year. You could even make the argumetn that the fans won that game. Chicago in FG range, three false starts later, 3rd and 33.
