It's game time!

[RightWinger]

Rush will be play it cool like he always does...

Yeeehhhaaawww!!!

My Panthers are going to the big game...YeeHaaawwwwwww!!!!

I've been tellin' the guys at work all week that Delhomme has better stats than McNabb...and we should win it by the stats.

Yeeehhhaaawww!!!

Glad we can show that Rush was right...YeeeHawww!!!!

[VRWC For Truth]

Have to root for my Pats though if the Cats win I won't be too disappointed. Hoping for a good game.

[ambrose]

I only do well when I don't have money on the line. LOL.

[alancarp]

he did enough to win.

Exactly. As for McNabb, I can't really tell if he was trying too hard to make plays (his weakness) or if the Panthers forced his hand. Likely the latter.

I don't know how serious his injury was so I'm willing to give McNabb the benefit of the doubt. For anyone to say that he lacks courage is to discount everything he's done prior to this. And I'm not an Eagles fan. They beat my Packers. So my viewpoint is merely a typical observer's opinion...

[L.N. Smithee]

Heck, I watched [the XFL]. While the talent was a little short, I did like what they did with the camera work. Some of those ideas have been used by the networks.

I watched it for two reasons: Demons QB Mike Pawlawski, who led the U. of California Golden Bears to their only Top Ten ranking in my lifetime (#7 in 1991), and the cool on-the-field camera work. True, the guys with the Steadicams running down field trying to keep up with the players looked kinda silly, but there's nothing like being in the huddle with the offense seconds before the play takes place. Even if you didn't care who was playing and/or winning, it was great to see whether or not their plays were going to work out.

Tom Jackson: "McNabb was so damaged by the racism of Limbaugh that no one could have expected him to play well today. The Palm Beach county prosecutor should investigate Limbaugh for this."

[shiva]

Collinsworth is deeply saddened!

[jaugust]

"Men need a female Mel Gibson to look (lust) up to..LOL"

I already do! She's my lady...;-}

[ambrose]

They had to do the trophy presentation in the locker room... guess they were afraid of the reception by the Philly fans.

[Recovering_Democrat]

It was eerie, when it was clear McNabb wasn't coming back, his name wasn't mentioned once by Joe Buck or Chris Collingsworth for the rest of the game.

I noticed that, too, and the cameras kept showing McNabb. Joe Buck even got a shot in at Rush saying something about how McNabb faced "adversity" or something like that because of comments on ESPN. FOR GOD'S SAKES....now, in the biggest game of his life, McNubb throws THREE interceptions, NO TDs and only 100 yards: I can tell you, IF IT HAD BEEN ANY OTHER QUARTERBACK, WE'D BE HEARING HOW HE JUST 'DIDN'T DO THE JOB TODAY'!

[Brimack34]

Qb rating has McNabb ranked about 15. But that's his receiver's fault.

[wylenetheconservative]

I'm sure John Street's supporters are out vandalizing the cars in the parking lot with North Carolina liscense plates.

[LisaMalia]

Oh, that is so sweet. God bless both of you.

[FreeAtlanta]

That patriot isn't John Kerry, is he? I know the guy was in Nam, but he isn't a patriot.

[over3Owithabrain]

McRibb got spanked!

Collinsworth's season of jock-sniffing is over - now he can turn his attention to choosing one of the 8 Democrats to carry water for. Ha!

[Mad_Tom_Rackham]

I will be rooting for Carolina and I think they can win. My bet would be Panthers -3.

[golas1964]

Obviously he didn't eat his Chunky Soup!

You may be right but don't count the Panthers out, too many other teams have been doing the same thing and look where that's got 'em!

I look for a close game...the team with the fewer mistakes will win...just like tonight!
