What is a Packer anyway and where the hell is Green Bay?

GO PACKERS!!!!!!!!!!!!

GO BILLS!

Now THIS is trash-talking. wink

1) A Packer: the Iggles' worst nightmare

2) Where the hell is Green Bay? Not hospitable terrain / tundra for Philadelphia next Monday -- hell is for Iggles fans!

THE PACK IS BACK!

21-7.. eagles road record the last 5 years.

Right back at you: 5-0 ... Packers' Monday Night record since 2001

(of course, two of those were against Da Bears ... do those count? )

Fat Man in Prime time 11-1.

Packers 2-2 at home after going 8-0 last year. This doesn't seem like a typical Packer team, even though the home team in the series has gone 6-0, dating back to 1994. Favre with a bad thumb was awesome in the temperature controlled dome in a must-win, revenge game. How will the thumb be in the cold of Lambeau? Can Ahman Green hold onto the ball in the cold?

Philly is 3-1 away from the Linc, building momentum, getting healthier, entering into the second half. This is their first game on grass all year though.

At this point I'll lean slightly towards the Eagles.

The only thing we can accurately predict about this game is that Madden will be drooling all over Brett Favre like he always does. Sickening.

I presume you mean the first road game on grass. They didn't transfer the turf from the Vet when they moved. wink

I thought they played on field turf in the Linc???

Apologize for the misstatement.

Pretty much blows my credibility...

You smokin' some of that same stuff that your former Mayor was smokin??

FELLOW EAGLE BROTHERS!

I think it's time for some good IGGLE MOJO and turn this into the EAGLES RALLY THREAD!

No Doubt this is a huge game in the standings and a tie breaker game come wild-card time...

So I think what we need is some good Iggle MOJO going and some positive thoughts (even i'll have them)

Just to kick things off, here's the link to the eagles fight song!

http://trumbore.com/eagles/movies/fight.html

E-A-G-L-E-S EAGLES!

You're gay, and you ask what a Packer is? wink

Actually, it refers to meatpacking, a major industry in the local economy at one time (or at least profitable enough to help the team get started). All them dairy cows gotta go somewhere eventually.

I'd tell you where it is, but I'd rather dig up a film clip of the Ice Bowl and play it ... though I don't know if it would have the same effect it does on people from Texas.

Hmmm and all this time all I could think of was fudge, glad you set us str8.


Here is to mucho mojo for the iggles! I'll drink to that.

Coincidentally, I am going to be in Milwaukee on Monday night -- any suggestions of a bar where I can watch the game without getting killed by Meatpacker fans?

You're probably safer in Milwaukee than you would be in Philly!!

Folks in M'waukee are pretty friendly -- well ... as long as the Pack wins! Of course every corner tavern will have the game on. I like The Nomad on Brady Street (the East Side on town near downtown).

Major Goulsby's and Club 1225 are good sports bars right downtown.

This site lists Eagle bars across the country -- only one listed for Wisconsin though -- in the small city of Grafton -- about a half hour north of Milwaukee.

Thanks DCBucky.

AH MD... takin the good fight to Wisc... very nice...

You are a True Eagle Superstar TES for short...

Representing in Mil is nuttun but good MOJO..

My Glass is raised to MD-TES...

What about me? I was in NYC when the Eagles beat the Jets--that's Noo Yawk, not some la-di-da Midwestern town. Where's the love?? Where are my props?? eek!

It's all about the MOJO JIP... post some Eagle MOJO.. EAGLE RALLY THREAD...

AH see, more MOJO from Phillyrunner-TES, i'll drink to that.

GO PACK GO!!!!

When I came out a few years ago my straight guy friends were like "Oh so now we know why you've liked the Packers all these years." I did have to laugh at that one.

Sorry Eagles fans, you will have the same record as us after Monday night. Good luck though =)

Grafton's more of a suburb now -- just off I-43, about a half-hour from downtown. If mdphl will have wheels in Brewtown, it may be worth the drive (but then go easy on the brew, of course).

Tangent: My high school is in Grafton's conference (they were realigned after I graduated), and Grafton dominates the conference in football, having more of a blue-collar history than the fancy-schmancy burb I came from (at least, that was the excuse we used when they beat us).

PhillyFan -- here is some mojo --

E-A-G-L-E-S

Oh and, BTW, the Bucs fans have been awfully quiet now that the Eagles are the only NFC playoff team from last year with a winning record!!

Danimal - thanks for the tip.

Any Meatpacker fans want to make a friendly wager with the loser to pay the bet at the Outsports Convention in Philly this summer. I was thinking something like this:

If the Eagles win -- Danimal will have to wear a cheesehead hat at the Phils game and if the Meatpackers win JIP will have to wear his Charlie Brown costume.

Sound like a deal?

MD-TES no buc stuff, bad mojo... bad mojo

I'd have some bet ideas but thats bad luck for me.

Here's some more MOJO...

GREEEEEEEEEEEEN AKERS IS THE PLACE TO BE!

Not even sure if I'm going to the convention , but if I do ... sure, why not?

Now we need to hear from JoeInPhilly??

wink

this is JIP's chance for GOOD EAGLES MOJO...

What does Charlie Brown have to do with the Eagles, though? It ought to be something Eagles-related.

Here's some mojo--just imagine, as I'm doing, Merrill Reese doing the play-by-play for a David Akers field goal attempt with 2 seconds left and the Packers ahead by a point......"The ball is spotted, the kick is away......IT'S GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOD!!!!!!!! And the Eagles win!"

post a charlie brown pic, these things happen man.

I agree with this being the bet, but betting on the Eggs is bad luck for this kid... so i wont be involved.

Those outside the Broadcast zone dont get the iggle radio network, boooo, Sorry thats bad mojo..

I think everyone should raise a beer this evening and give the E-A-G-L-E-S EAGLES cheer in a celebratory toast for good MOJO.

PS, this happyness had BETTER work or the mean PF comes back next week... do you hear that football gods?

Ya, sure, ya betcha okey-dokey (as they say up there in 'sconsin) ... Akers will do just fine -- but a last minute field goal -- please. By the late 4th Q, GB will be up by 10-14 points. Bucky may even be able to go to bed before midnight.

danimal -- don't tell me you're a homesteader!! (Grafton was in my h.s. conference a realignment or two ago).

Where was that "MOJO" when they visited Texas Stadium?

It's so sad when people cry themselves to sleep.

[QUOTE]Originally posted by DCBucky:
[qb] Bucky may even be able to go to bed before midnight.

ummm we just call him Buck. As in number 28 and i dont think Andy would let him leave in the 4th qtr.

Those would be tears of joy Joe!

btw -- how 'bout we get together and watch the game? Last season when you were down in DC and we caught some football, I seem to recall the Pack won their game ... and the Eagles lost theirs. I like that mojo!!

sorry but the pack mojo has been offset by that of True Eagle Superstars.. and true american patriots

phillyfan -- I got your true American patriot right here!

Packers 35 - Eagles 21.

Sorry, Eagles fans, within this very thread I think you've just un-mojo-ed (de-mojo-ed?) yourselves!

When I do an Insta-Mojo-Search for "Eagles +Charlie Brown +field goal," all I get is:

No Last Minutes Heroics

Pack by 3.

SORRY BUCKy the Iggle MOJO can not be stopped!

You're lucky i'm trying something new to pump the troops or by now i woulda called you a few curse words, but that didnt seem to work...

The Green Wave of Eagle MOJO has started and is about to wash up in the land of GB. When the Eagle faithful band together, WE CAN NOT BE STOPPED!

E-A-G-L-E-S EAGLES!

EVERYONE TIP THEIR GLASSES IN A TOAST.. A TOAST TO ALL THAT IS GOOD, ALL THAT IS RIGHT, ALL THAT IS IGGLE FOOTBALL!

TRUE EAGLES SUPERSTARS UNITE! HEH

...against the lowly Lions...

...against the much-less-lowly Colts.

I think it's time for JIP to lead the Faithful in a nice eagles cheer.... cheers.

I'll be invading enemy territory in Milwaukee on Monday night -- leading the EAGLES cheer there; PF will be doing the same in Phoenix; JIP,Phillyrunner and Scottie will be holding down the Fort in Philly -- we got National Mojo going here!!!

I think PF started drinking early today.
Did the twins drop by?

Cheers!

Ill be doing a special "cheer" for the eaglets here in Dallas. Have fun mdphl!

Everybody sing along!

Fly Eagles fly, on the road to victory.
Fight Eagles fight, score a touchdown 1-2-3.
Hit 'em low,
Hit 'em high,
And watch our Eagles fly.
Fly Eagles fly on the road to victory!
E-A-G-L-E-S EAGLES!!!!

All we need now is MIB in Chicago; William in DC and we'll have a geographical and political cheering (cross)section for the Birds.

Thanks for thinking of us Raze. See, you're finally getting over that battery throwing obsession

Oh no, trust me, that will return!

No, don't bring that back. We like the new, nice Razorback better. The one who pays compliments to PhillyFan! wink

Since I'm now off work until Wednesday, I actually am available if anyone wants to watch the game at a bar. wink
