I know that Meek Mill is close with Bob Kraft, and the pair are involved with a new criminal justice reform group, but what the hell is this? –

Pretty bad.
Rams by a million.
If you’re like me, you probably don’t give a shit about the Super Bowl. My interest level is maybe a 0.3 out of 10, because it’s the Patriots versus the Rams.
I know some people are cheering for the Patriots because they want the Eagles’ 2018 victory to stand out a little bit more. It’s the idea of, “well, the Eagles did what the Falcons, Seahawks, and Rams couldn’t do.” People believe that Super Bowl 52 means more if the Birds’ win isn’t diluted by other teams accomplishing the same feat.
Personally, I’d like to see the Pats get annihilated, because they’re disgusting cheaters. That’s the other way to approach this game from a neutral standpoint. And if the Rams win, Eagles fans can say their team beat the Super Bowl champions in their home stadium.
Here’s your brief Super Bowl 53 rooting guide.
Looks like the Bud Light statue outside of Lincoln Financial Field does indeed appear to be Doug Pederson and Nick Foles deciding on the “Philly Special” play call during Super Bowl 52.
We did a short post a few minutes ago featuring a picture of the statue with a cover draped over it, but here’s an image of the statue sans veil below:

Looks like Pederson holding a play sheet. The crane is moving crusher Doug into position on the pedestal next to Foles.
Pretty gnarly, yeah? I assume this will only be up for Thursday night before eventually being moved, but I say we replace the Rocky statue at the Art Museum with this masterpiece instead.
Hey, guess what?
We’ve arrived at the regular season.
The Eagles open with the Falcons at home next Thursday and the NFL Network is highlighting your Super Bowl champions with a pair of specials on the eve of the big game.
The first one is called “Philly Special: Doug Pederson and the 2017 Eagles” and premieres at 8 p.m. next Wednesday.
The second is called “America’s Game: 2017 Eagles” and will air immediately after the first one at 9 p.m, so if you were looking for the right time to sit on your ass and relive the Super Bowl season, this is your opportunity.
Here’s a blurb from the press release:
Philly Special: Doug Pederson and the 2017 Eagles airs on NFL Network, providing a behind-the-scenes look at some of the biggest moments and decisions that led to the Eagles’ first Super Bowl championship in franchise history. Building off of the success of 2015’s Do Your Job: Bill Belichick and the 2014 Patriots, 2016’s Worth the Wait: Gary Kubiak and the 2015 Denver Broncos and 2017’s Do Your Job Part II, this year’s edition features sitdown interviews with Eagles head coach Doug Pederson, owner Jeffrey Lurie, general manager Howie Roseman and others.
The program will be narrated by Philly native and Tony Award winner Leslie Odom Jr. of Hamilton fame.
Another former Eagle got a ring. This time, it was everybody’s favorite long snapper Jon Dorenbos.
No disrespect to Rick Lovato who did a hell of a job last season, but Dorenbos should have arguably been on this team. He was due about $1 million last year before being traded to the Saints. That’s when team doctors made a lifesaving discovery that he had an aortic aneurysm.
He never played football again, but remained close to the Eagles organization during their playoff run. He and his wife traveled to Minnesota with the Eagles and got a picture with the Lombardi Trophy after the win.
Owner Jeffrey Lurie promised Dorenbos he’d get a ring. He finally got his today. Video after the jump. Continue Reading
Oh yeah, the Eagles practiced today.
Apparently Brandon Graham is even more of a beast than originally thought:
Brandon Graham said in addition to playing through a high ankle sprain that eventually needed surgery, he also pulled his hamstring during Super Bowl LII.
So he made the most important plays in #Eagles history with a high ankle sprain and a pulled hammy.

Not sure if you saw the play, but Graham’s strip sack of Tom Brady basically won the Super Bowl for the Eagles.
Here’s the play, just in case you didn’t see it:
EAGLES WIN THE SUPER BOWL IN AN EPIC GAME!!!!

Time’s yours.
Kyle wrote this morning about the Fox News clip that misrepresented Eagles players as taking a knee during the national anthem when they were praying instead.
Fox apologized a few minutes ago:
There you have it.
Time’s yours.
Pretty rad:
Every player received their Super Bowl LII Game Ball today!! By far the game ball I’m most proud of in my career. pic.twitter.com/feWpH21DzL

Get that bad boy in a glass display case and put it front and center on the mantle.
