Your Monday Morning Roundup
Yet another Monday morning where Sunday feels like it was just a waste. At least you didn’t have to stay up late to feel that way.
Let’s hit it!
But first, a word from our sponsors:
Wars. Well these shirts, available in grey, green… and a paler green. Get one.
More. Already have all of our shirts? Check out Philly Phaithful’s great selection.
Amazon. You probably shop there. If so, click our link as we get a small commission for referring the sale.
Tickets. I can’t stress enough how you can easily shop for the best deals on Eagles tickets at Crossing Broad Tickets.
Home. My thanks to LC Homes and Darley Green for sponsoring the site this month:
Own this for $0 down and $1,400 per month, 25 minutes from Center City. DarleyGreen.com.
Rent. Of course, if you’re not in the market to buy, but are looking for all the same thrills, you can also rent at Darley Green.
The roundup:
The #Philly hasthtag has been blocked from showing recent uploads on Instagram. Someone must’ve been uploading extremely violent and/or depressing pictures of the Eagles game.
Since a safety doesn’t technically count, the Eagles defense finished without a takeaway for the first time this season.
College basketball is back and Bill Walton’s ramblings are still the best.
The Harvard Band played the “Penis” game and won.
Gregg Popovich couldn’t do what Brett Brown does: “I’d last about a month [coaching the Sixers]. And he, honest to God, loves coaching that team.”
The Redskins are making “you like that” their thing now, and it’s incredibly annoying.
Chip Kelly’s modified S8 playcard featured the Peace for Paris symbol on it, and that may have been the smartest decision he made all day:
2011 AL Rookie of the Year Jeremy Ellickson is now a Phillie, and the Phils sent their 27th ranked prospect away in return.
Aaron Rodgers is still the best, rips a fan who yelled something prejudiced during the pre-game moment of silence:

In other pre-game ceremonies honoring France, the Giants found the smallest flag they could, and then oriented it like the Dutch flag:

The Philly Police actually had the tweet of the day about returning wild animals to their weird circus prison home:
Zebras in custody. They are already sporting old-timey prisoner getup ahead of trial and sentencing. Have faith, fellas.

Let’s play the blame game:
Amazes me how quickly people point out any missed throw by Bradford when he's 19-25 for 9.6 y/a and Cooper/Austin are wasting roster spots

Should be a lot less blame on Chip the coach today. Chip the GM needs to sit a in a hot bath with some sliced vegetables and chicken stock

The #Eagles play against #Dolphins was insulting and an embarrassment. A team is far from playoff team w all those mistakes. Blame many

Undermanned #Eagles' OL takes large share of blame in run game deficiencies, writes @bobfordsports: https://t.co/NI8gnSAd7v

Philly Jesus wants to bring the gospel to the “big screen,” and is trying to raise a measly $70 million for it. He’d also like a helicopter and a stadium.
In reaction to the Paris attacks this weekend, NFL stadiums had increased security all day Sunday, even though no threats were known.
