The Philadelphia Eagles have steamrolled through free agency, adding marquee acquisition after marquee acquisition. Not one, but two pro bowl corners. Throw in a pro bowl defensive end and back up qb that's been a pro bowler himself, and you have the making of the nfl's version of the Miami Heat. Mark my words, the Eagles will be hated this season.
It is only human to root for David. If we're just watching a game that we have no rooting interest in, we generally root for the underdog. So you can imagine how we feel when you tell us that you're going to win it all. The Eagles have all but said "Hey...y'all know we bout to win it all right?" Yes I know that Rex Ryan put people off with his bold predictions last year but this will be worse, much worse. Every hated team needs a lightning rod, a controversial figure if you will. The Heat had LeBron James. The Eagles have that in Michael Vick. Desean Jackson and newly acquired Vince Young have been no stranger to negative press either. The Eagles have put themselves in the super bowl or bust category, and there will be millions of fans outside of Pennsylvania that hope they bust.
