One poor life choice was not getting vaccinated. 

Maybe, maybe not.  Doesn't discount my statement.

That green collar is bothering me right now. Maybe it will grow on me

I love it along with the trim at the edge of the sleeves.  Fits really well with the jersey and makes it pop more.

Where did you find this?  Interesting that they would have home and away available.  Trying to not get my hopes up for a full overhaul to KG in 2024.

It's an interesting concept.  The 90s uniforms didn't have any color or sleeve trim.

I like it. The green may be a tad darker than I was expecting but it's a lot better than the others so far

Wow Seltzer sucks. He talked so much crap about this and how good he is at chugging yet he barely was able to chug that. What a joke

He didn't even finish it and he spilled a ton in the process.

At this point, I don't believe the Kelly green jerseys are happening at all.  Those are nice though.

When my daughter (adult) got the initial booster (Pfizer) she felt miserable for almost a week and pretty much stayed in bed. For me, the symptoms of covid weren't nearly that severe. Do the math.

Despite the annual deaths worldwide, nobody seems to be stigmatizing the people that opt out of getting an annual flu shot. Strange ...

Some people have a significant degree of trypanophobia.

Some people will be allergic to certain covid vaccines. 

Even after all this time, and after so many people worldwide have had some type of covid vaccine or another and we're told everything is so great and all the risks are so minimal, why is virtually everything still EUA instead of FDA approved? 

 

 

I mean ... if you're waiting for me to say it's a political decision or something, that's just silly. Vaccinations aren't "political." There are no major party stances on getting a vaccination or not. Religion? While I'm sure there are plenty of religions I know little about, I doubt most are against getting vaccinated. Those that are are more likely cults than anything else. But there are people that decided to not get the shots. Who are you to tell them their reason isn't good?

 

Historically, if we look at vaccines, rather than the reactions to the Covid vaccines, a major focus was not just protecting oneself but also on protecting others. Take for example, smallpox, polio, mumps, measles and meningitis.  Requiring those has long been pretty universal because of the impact it can have on children.  I recall those vaccines not being available (except smallpox) when I was young. I recall the impact on children in school.  I recall lining up for the polio vaccine, our parents were thrilled having grown up with a President and friends impacted by the disease.  I was thrilled my kids had the meningitis vaccine available having seen the impact that disease can have on people. While one can shed virus if vaccinated, all suggestions are that because of reduced symptoms that such spread is highly diminished and when combined with masking, self quarantining pretty much eliminated from the vaccinated.  The major issue I have with the false narratives on the Covid vaccine is that it created a political divide that misplaced our concerns and understanding for others and somehow created a huge misunderstanding on how science evolves.  Of course there were missteps along the way.  That happens as scientific knowledge is gained.  It’s not like Edison and his staff solved the lightbulb at the first try. 

In the interest of full disclosure, I have taken the older person vaccines (shingles, pneumonia) that really offer more benefit to me than to others. If the good folks at Walter Reed succeed in their work on an overall coronavirus vaccine (there are lots of coronaviruses not just the one that caused Covid) and thus cure the common cold, I am interested.  I suspect that one thing the Covid vaccine exemplified is how well the virus evolves.  

As teams announce open training camp dates and we see one "practice” from afar at the Linc, I pine for the Lehigh days.

What's more frustrating about it, is that the Eagles seem to think they are offering this great service by allowing the fans to buy tickets for 1 practice.

It's really just when they stopped doing Eagles Live around the time Doug came in. I used to watch that religiously

I would also like them to add silver back into the uniform.  

I am ready to move on to religion today.  There is no express prohibition against talking about it.  Here's my take:

 

Jesus does not have positional utility.  He is pretty much limited to playing OLB/Edge rusher.

I know it harp on this regularly, but the Eagles have one of, if the not worst website and team access anymore. We get little to no content, terrible multimedia and seem to have zero access to the team anymore. What's so strange about the whole thing is that the Eagles used to be heads and shoulders above the rest of the leave when it came to team accessibility and having fan content for the fans. It really gave the Eagles fans a sense of being one with the team. 

I'll call them the Eagles Digest/Lehigh/pre-social media years because that's what I associate that time with. What made it better were the personalities on those teams. Ricky Watters, Hugh Douglas, Donovan McNabb, TO, Brian Dawkins, Jon Runyan etc. The Runyan/Douglas 1-on-1 battles were something I looked forward to every TC. Seeing your favorite players up close, getting autographs and having actual conversations is something you just don't get anymore. 

I have a lot of friends that are Steelers fans and as much as I don't want to feel envy, I do because of how they still get to go to camp.

The Jesus I know is far too lean to be an edge rusher. Plus, given the region he's from, I'm guessing he's more prone to being a kicker. There's a reason the goalposts are shaped the way they are.

Look he has functional strength. I think you are missing his ability to bend around the edge.
