THEY’RE MAKING NOISE IN PHILADELPHIA
Eagles Win!

Philadelphia Eagles 20
Green Bay 17

Donovan McNabb, Duce Staley, David Akers, Brian Dawkins, Andy Reid and so many others!

Sure, that was a strange ending, but who cares? It was a great game, and I’m glad it’s noisy in Philadelphia tonight.

A good kind of noisy.

Post-publication addendum (January 12): Coverage of the Eagles in today’s daily newspapers.
