Published:
How many folks cover the Eagles these days?
50? 60? 70? One hundred?!
It’s a large group. Good group, too. Lots of folks who do good work. Only a handful of frauds.
We’ve got positive news on a Wednesday afternoon, as the NFL and players union agreed to new COVID guidelines, which includes:
Major developments for media: Fully vaccinated media will be permitted to conduct in-person interviews with players for the first time since early 2020. Unvaccinated media not allowed in press box, field, sidelines, locker room, etc. pic.twitter.com/IX3MFqmwuX

See ya Zoom! FOH. We’re getting this thing back to normal down at the NovaCare Complex. We need fist fights and press box ejections. We need “Food and Drink Warz” between Howard Eskin and Jimmy Kempski. We need Jeff McLane asking Doug Pederson if “The King” is leaking stories on behalf of the team.
It’s time to make the Eagles beat great again. MEBGA!
