Today was my two year wedding anniversary and my wife surprised me with tickets to Eagles vs Colts this year at the Linc. I’m super excited as I’ve never been to an eagles game or Philadelphia before. I didn’t think I’d ever make it up there due to being from VA and just life and general. That being said, any advice is appreciated. Good hotels to stay that aren’t super expensive (they don’t have to be 5 stars, just clean and in a nice part of town)best places to eat, places to visit, etc. She wants to visit the Christmas village while we are there so I’d like to be around that area if possible. Any advice is appreciated!

The Reading terminal is walkable from the Christmas village. Interesting place to visit and Dinics roast pork sandwich is fantastic. Chinatown is walkable from there too if you want some good dim sum instead.

If they're doing winter fest still over on the Delaware riverfront that's worth checking out too. Kinda like a winter themed pop up garden. Fire pits, ice skating, boozy hot chocolate (and regular drinks too) etc.

She also was also recommended Hampton Inn Philadelphia Center City-Convention Center. Know anything about that place? Pretty good or no?

Same area, but lower budget

Dont stray north around there

I was one of the first people there at Mongos tailgate. It was right around Halloween so I dressed up as Freddie Mitchell, champion belt and all

It was a cold, rainy, miserable day. Many find memories except for the game being over by halftime.

Reminds me of how several Eagles players believe the Earth is flat, Goedert is one of them. Jason Kelce once said how there was a big discussion at a practice about it and he was surprised the number of guys who believed it.

Not that I put any faith in the media department’s depth chart or even their position designations but it is interesting that they show Robinson as Davis’ back up when last year Young was the backup at NT

Them listing Dalton and McKee as co backups was the most predictable thing in the world. They are going to keep up this charade for as long as they to do just to try to squeeze like a 6th rounder out of the situation.

Being an conspiracy idiot is almost a prerequisite to being a wide receiver I think. Nacua thinks CTE isn't real. Antonio Brown was certifiable. Sammy Watkins once called himself and advanced reptilian space being or something like that (my person favorite).

I really don’t like baseball but it shows up in my sports, including my Eagles Twitter. I understand that Milwaukee has a damn good pitcher and Ohtani is impressive (though injured). So how is it when a sports prognosticator tweets about post season awards, how is it that Luzardo is not mentioned for the Cy Young. His ERA is phenomenal.

Gonna be in for the weekend. Fri-Sun

I'd say if you're sticking to the City Hall/Reading Terminal area, you should get a beer at McGillins or Fergies.

Lemon listed as the punt returner 👀

I had a dream last night or I guess you could call it a nightmare that through the first 3 weeks the Eagles scored 0 points in each game and the entire city was having a meltdown. And in week 4 against the Rams when the Eagles took the field they came out to boos at the Linc because the fans were so pissed.

Are we even sure he isn't actually talking about the Arctic but got the name confused with the Antarctica?

He really means it this time

Have always been aware of the flat-earth theory but what’s the response of someone who believes in it when you ask "Then where is the edge of the world that if you go beyond you fall off into the depths of space?”

Right now my guess regarding the six Week One inactives is

Dalton

Moore

Stowers

Greenard

Robinson

Jones

Mondon is a possibility, especially if a Practice Squad player is elevated

Interesting. Last week I took a stab at the likely Inactives and had Robinson as one of them. I wonder if I need to reconsider that.

They think the government has ships that stop anyone from getting to the edge so they can't prove it. I don't know. There's a whole topic in CVON about it.

Because he’s on the same roster as Sanchez and wheeler.

Probably says something about Greenard as well.
