I took the dog for a walk early today.* Well, earlier than usual– around 8:45 a.m. I figured that if Jeffrey Lurie decides to fire Andy Reid , an announcement will likely come around late morning so the Eagles have enough time to craft a statement but not enough time to trot Reid out there for one final press conference. 

But, early signs are that things will remain status quo and Reid will, once again, have to figure out a way to do a better job. Tim McManus, of Philly Mag:

Indications are that Andy Reid will continue to coach this week.

Stay tuned. And while you wait, I’m taking suggestions for celebratory YouTube clips for whenever Andy gets fired. Though my money is 100% on New Year’s Eve, the day after the Eagles’ last game at a time when media coverage will be light and bloggers will be forced to take their heads out of tubs of beer to write snark about how it should have been done months ago. But I’m not proactively bitter. No, not at all.

UPDATE: Sources tell Jeff McLane and Matt Lombardo that Reid will, in fact, coach against the Cowboys next week.

*Her first snowfall and she’s completely unfazed by it other than the fact that SHE CAN’T FUCKING FIND A PLACE TO PISS. I knew girls in college who were more willing to spritz in the snow. I felt like a Zamboni, clearing a path with my foot (for the dog, not my slore friends in college). Also, I can't feel my right thumb. It's frozen.
