Your Monday Morning Roundup
HOW MANY DAYS, MR. MACNOW?
Fly, Eagles, fly, on the road to victory,
Fight, Eagles, fight, score a touchdown one-two-three,
Hit ’em low,
Hit ’em high,
And watch our Eagles fly,
Fly, Eagles, fly, on the road to victory!
E-A-G-L-E-S, Eagles!
They are going to destroy the Falcons tonight. That three-point line AIN’T EVEN MAKE NO SENSE. I’m not an investment guru, but if I was, I’d tell you to take your money – all of it – find someone with whom to place your wager of chance, and put it on the Eagles.
Let’s hit it!

The roundup:
He. Never. Takes. Off. This. Hat. Though he does seem sad that the Eagles went with Brian Dawkins instead of him in their promo video this year:
This guy also predicts the Eagles to win:
Black Adam Schefter has a nice collection of Odell Beckham hair memes.
How is New York reacting to the Giants’ bone-flub last night?
Not well.
But even better is the insinuation that the Giants let Odell Beckham play with a concussion after getting blown up on this hit.
Beckham was leveled by Cowboys safety J.J. Wilcox on a throw over the middle with 2:42 left in the first quarter of the Giants’ 27-26 loss, held his arms out in disoriented fashion and then stumbled groggily to the Giants’ bench. Beckham was looked at by Giants trainers and doctors after he tried to wave off their attempt to make him undergo the NFL’s mandatory concussion protocol. They cleared him in surprisingly quick fashion, not even making Beckham go in the locker room for a more in-depth look.
Meanwhile, Dez Bryant broke his foot and will miss 4-6 weeks.
This is just a crab, walking around North Philly, smoking:
I bet you that crab is dead now.
Congratulations to the hilarious Nationals, who dropped five in a row and lost Drew Storen for the season after Storen slammed his thumb in a locker and broke it.
Jake Voracek sighting at Luke Bryan concert:
Aaron Rodgers is so good, at everything.
The Rutgers football program is an absolute disgrace. Star Leonte Carroo suspended:
Authorities are investigating an altercation that happened outside the Rutgers football team’s headquarters on Saturday evening involving a female acquaintance of Leonte Carroo and another female, two people familiar with the situation told New Jersey Advance Media.
The level of Carroo’s involvement in the incident is unclear. A person close to the program told New Jersey Advance Media that head coach Kyle Flood, who suspended Carroo indefinitely on Sunday, is taking the matter seriously in light of the recent string of off-field transgressions within the program.
Sam Bradford sat down for a one-on-one with Ray Lewis which will air before the game tonight:
I can only imagine that the extent of the interview will be Lewis seething at a trembling Bradford.
Dan Bailey, looking good:
Miss Georgia with that flaming take:

That bag of rocks will have no trouble competing for real estate in that head.
Reader Andrew sends along this picture of Donovan McNabb at an event for drug and alcohol addiction:
Yep, I’m going to be the guy to make the joke: Finally, someone who can catch McNabb’s low throws!
Reader Flyers sends this in:
Good read from the Wall Street Journal about how the future of the NFL may be the up-tempo offense.
But Apple has already peaked?!
That’s in one fewer days of preorders, too.
Chuck Klosterman beautifully eulogized Moses Malone over at Grantland.

Someone is having fun at the expense of the Browns:
The big league Phillies are boring, but at least J.P. Crawford is pulling off highlight plays in the minors.
Here’s a Falcons broadcaster’s cheat sheet for the Eagles tonight:
The final nail in the DeflateGate coffin:
Already posted this but why not post butt-hurt McCoy again:
Breer: Shady McCoy smiling and joking — “Get a picture. The Chip Kelly rejects.”
