Just wanted to say I'm proud as an Eagles fan for how, we the base, handled the Reid situation.

I have always felt that booing your own team and trash talking them is perfectly legit but this was a case where we should have kept our mouths shut and we did.  We respected AR for everything he has done for us and for everything he went through this year with his son Garrett.  The media will obviously NEVER EVER report our good behavior but don't fret, any head coach who was considering coming here DID take notice.

Adios Andy, thanks for the good times.

What exactly were you expecting them to do, rush the field and attack him?  Way to go Philly, you didn't become a violent mob!

Are you that delousional that you think the "mob" was not booing andy out of a show of respect?  It doersn't work like that kid.  They had no time to boo andy as it was a close game.  They would not have shown the kind of respect you think they did if it was 30-13 late in the 4th qt.  The mdia reprtin good behavior of a fan base is like saying you're a good parent for not letting your toddler drink your beer when they pick it up.  You people on this message board and sports talk radio really are delousional.

I wouldn't condone it, but I've often expected it.

It was mentioned previously, but I'll reiterate: The game was close enough that boo-ing wasn't an actual thought; need I mention half the stadium was filled with maroon and gold?

Had it been a blow out, you would've heard it.

Kind of reminded me of how things were at FedEx Field in the past. Eagles fans would come out in full force.

Sad times ahead. :(
