Dog owner/Eagles fan still unsure whether he should root for Michael Vick

November 21, 2010 By Leave a Comment

PHILADELPHIA – David Haskins, a long time eagles fan has seen the ups and downs of his beloved franchise. Having been a season ticket holder for the past 10 years, he thanks his dog sitting business for allowing him to spend his fortunes on watching his favorite team take the field every Sunday. “I love what i do, I’ve been doing it all my life and I have no intention of retiring from my passion” said Haskins of his dog sitting business.

Haskins has been dog sitting ever since he was 10 years old. People say he has this special bond with all canines that would make Cesar Milan jealous. When Haskins turned this hobby into his career, it had become the turning point of his life financially. Now making up to $600 k a year, Haskins has more time to focus on enjoying the sport of football. However, things took a horrible twist when Vick was added to the team and eventually was named starter. “I missed the first Eagles game of my life when Vick took over for Kevin Kolb” commented Haskins. “After what Vick did, I can never forgive him. I will never root for him and I hope he gets injured.” Haskins also added.

Needless to say, Haskins was very excited when Vick went down with the rib injury but after the loss to Tennessee, he wasn’t so high on Kolb. “I wanted McNabb back” said Haskins. After Vick’s performance against McNabb of all people last week, Haskins admits he has never been more confused in his life as to whether to root for his team or boo for Vick. Fans sitting by him in the stadium said they thought he was an unadmitted schizophrenic patient. He would cheer for the Eagles defense but boo whenever the ball was passed on offense. After the 40th point, Haskins ran out of breath from his constant boos and passed out on the stadium field.

After being revived at the end of the game, he was told the final score was 59 – 28, and the Eagles won. Haskins still expressed displeasure despite his team winning. Haskins today is now being closely monitored as so he doesn’t kill himself from the confusion that occurs. Some fellow fans have encouraged him to forget the past and root for his franchise as this may be his best chance to see them win a championship but Haskins’ response is the usual cold blank stare.

Eagles play against the Giants this Sunday evening.

Team doctors worried Andy Reid is suffering from concussion illness after naming Vick starter

September 22, 2010 By Leave a Comment

PHILADELPHIA – Andy Reid had given a press conference early Monday regarding his quarterbacks situation. As many know already, Eagles QB had suffered a concussion already this season which paved the way for Michael Vick to be the signal caller for the Philadelphia Eagles. After his winning performance, this left many fans of the game guessing if Vick would get another shot at starting despite Kevin Kolb being cleared to play again. However no one was expecting for Reid to make his decision so early and quick.

Reid had declared Vick his starter on Tuesday morning, and while this comes as a surprise to many, including Vick, Reid said he felt he deserved another shot at leading his team. As soon as the cameras went off, team doctors rushed on site and yanked Andy away from the reporters in order diagnose Reid. It was a somewhat scary situation as media members and staff members of the team looked at Reid and the doctors with a sense of worry and fear on their faces, hoping he was alright.

After a few minutes of holding up fingers for Reid to count and flashing a small flashlight in his eyes to check for dilation, Reid was carried away from the press room in a stretcher. The crowd of people clapped as he stuck his hands up letting everyone know he will be OK. We will let you know if any more news on this develops.

Cujo a possible suspect in shooting incident at Michael Vick’s party

June 27, 2010 By 1 Comment

yes.. cujo.. i know..

VIRGINIA BEACH – According to an ESPN report, there was a shooting incident outside a nightclub in Virginia Beach on Thursday the 24th. The victim, Quanis Phillips, is known as a friend of Vick’s but has been ordered to not have any association with the Eagles QB since he was released from prison on the dog fighting charges.

According to police, the victim of the violent scuffle was very uncooperative but he did receive medical attention. No one that remained in the club after the shooting claimed to be eyewitnesses but they did mention seeing a dog jet out of the general area where the shooting occured. No one thought much of it to identify the dog, but the police said they have a policy of treating everyone as a suspect.

Police reports were filed and almost every description fit a certain breed of dog which in turn fits a popular dog named Cujo. Cujo’s name came into the picture after authorities learned that he was one of the B list celebrities invited to Vick’s birthday party at the club. The bouncer noticed Cujo and he appeared to be in a calm and playful manner. “He even made jokes about dog-fighting and he didn’t appear to be armed or anything.” Cujo’s friends said he left with them before the shooting occurred and by no means should he be a suspect in this. They also said they will sue if Cujo is even questioned by authorities because they feel this is driven by him being a dog and nothing more.

We tried to reach Cujo for his take on the issue but he just barked at us.

After McNabb trade, Philly fans aspire to finally win a superbowl

April 5, 2010 By Leave a Comment

donovanmcnabbPHILADELPHIA- Lots of happy faces filled the streets on Sunday, after the news broke out that McNabb had been traded to Washington. The general mood out there was that the Eagles have turned over a new leaf and have had a nice breath of fresh air. “Hopefully we can go the extra mile this time” said a local Eagles fanatic.

Eagles fans have been highly critical of their team being a perennial powerhouse but not being able to win a championship. The team was like a tease everytime according to alot of fans alike. Last season did look promising but was cut short after their early playoff exit.

“Now you know why we boo’ed McNabb during the draft..” said longtime eagles fan, Justin McRowan. He also added, “time for us to play a real quarterback!.” For the Quarterback position now, the eagles have a lowly experienced starter in Kevin Kolb and an ex convict in Michael Vick. Another fan added, “I mean, seriously, what kind of team doesn’t win a championship?”. Philly fans are excited because this is the beginning of bulding their championship dream team.

McNabb, on the other hand, wasn’t the least bit slighted by the statements. He said, “Those fans are so crazy, you don’t know whether you won or lost a game. They boo you no matter what.. Maybe they’re really cheering but because of their accent, it sounds like boos!”
Mcnabb seems to be happy about the trade to Redskins, under a new staff and team, we are all eager to see how McNabb performs.
