Philadelphia Eagles Night – Friday on ESPN
ESPN will host a Philadelphia Eagles-themed night on Friday, May 8, starting at 8 p.m. ET with Invincible, the latest installment in ESPN’s Friday night Disney sports films series. Starring Mark Wahlberg, Invincible chronicles the inspirational story of Vince Papale, the 30-year-old bartender who played for the Eagles in the late 1970s after new coach Dick Vermeil’s call for an open tryout. Following the film, ESPN will air a pair of NFL’s Greatest Games featuring the Eagles – Super Bowl LII (Eagles def. Patriots 41-33) at 10 p.m. and 2018 NFC Wild Card Round (Eagles def. Bears 16-15) at 10:30 p.m.
Invincible, followed by the Super Bowl, followed by the Double Doink. Not a bad night at all.
