I first posted here around 1995 or 1996 but it wasn't a lack of interest
in the Eagles that pushed me away, it was a lack of educated posters. I
don't mean that as a knock to those few good posters that did post there,
but the activity was very low. I also had my hands full with the Flyers
NG which was getting around 300 a day at it's peak and that was during
the off season. As far as where was I..geographically I was/am in the
heart of Redskin's which has become Redskins/Panthers territory getting
mocked on a daily basis for my Eagles Jerseys, sweaters, T-shirts, caps,
Golf shirts, and jackets. Sometimes even hints. I wore the colors proud
and refused to jump when it would've been easy to do so. I still do so
even in this season because it's who I am. Someday, our day will come.
I'm not sure what I'll do, probably not much more than I do now, but at
least at some point (hopefully before I die of old age) I'll be able to
savor the moment and take it all in and remember back over the years when
it was only a dream.

Obviously though, if you're posting here, then you're not one of the
people that I was talking about.
