I thought that was because of dubya-dubya-too and too many of their players getting drafted to fight the Nazis over in the Pacific.
You know, there could be something to your version of events.




But I like mine better.

Correct. Manpower shortage during WWII forced teams to merge. In '43 the Steelers merged with the Eagles and in '44 they merged with the Chicago Cardinals.

BTW Card-Pitt was the worst team in the league that year going 0-10. Earning them the nickname 'the Carpets'.

They don't all die before that one starts though.


There should be a Steegles movie. A lot of people don't even know the state of a Pennsylvania was so broke ass it had to join its teams.
A lot of people are ignorant of the fact that Philadelphia's wealth, or lack thereof, had nothing to do with that extremely dark period in our history. A lot of people don't realize that a little thing called World War II caused it.

A lot of people also like to post incorrect fantasy tales about the Eagles and the City of Philadelphia, call the best QB in the NFL (circa Week 11) a scrub, and also claim that I am a bandwagon fan despite posting every week on the Eagles' board during the 2013 and 2015-2017 seasons (I wasn't on the hoop during the 2014 season).

Actually, a lot of people don't do any of that. Mainly, it's just you:scratch:

Your obsession 'aint healthy, hoss. Reconfiguring your own reality of events and imagining Philly is anything short of the beautiful, booming city full of winners that it is- well, it's just as bad as all those threads @AlaskaGuy starts about 5 year olds being allowed to choose their own race and gender. It's not real.

Though considering the Detroit angle, we may be seeing a classic case of the projections taking place.

Let's get a third opinion on this @Rock Strongo

I GOTZ U GUIZ GUD. FOLES DA GR8EST. E-A-G-L-E-S

Pretty much what I am hearing in this thread so far. Gonna have to do a lot better than that, Eagles fans.
Nobody said anything even approaching that, so nice straw man. It's the Philadelphia Eagles that are Super Bowl Champions, not just Nick Foles.

UHZ OHZ GUIZ, THE SUPER BOWL CHAMPIONS ARE ASSERTING THEIR DOMINENZ. QUIK, EVERY1, ON MY COUNT, 1, 2, 3- FOLEZ SUCKZ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
