Just thinking back to the superbowl. Many people were frantic about what time the game thread was started and it made me think about this thread I started before our first SB win. A few things stuck with me that I think about now.
1. When we've won the AFC championship game and everyone is on stage talking, Travis usually yells out that famous rallying cry!!.."You've gotta fight!!..for your right!!..to paaaaaaarrrtttyy!!". I remember watching him talking and waiting for that same cry we've heard so many times but for some reason he didn't do it. And maybe that was a reflection of how the guys were feeling going into the game. No hype at all.
2. There was something going around twitter saying the team who arrives at the superbowl first had won the previous SIX games? Well Philly arrived first.
3. Before playoff games I always look at the oppositions injury reports and tendencies. The last few years I wasn't as active. But the two times I put a lot work into were Tampa and this Philly game smh.
4. Lastly there was a picture going around twitter the Friday before the game of the big screen in the Saints stadium and it said "Eagles superbowl champions". Perhaps they were testing out stuff but when I saw that it did make me pause and wonder if this game was just not gonna be our night.
