Sly Stallone was at the game wearing an Eagles jacket. In Philadelphia, he is still beloved because of the first "Rocky" movie, which remains one of the best sports movies of all time. Stallone, unbelievably, fights again in "Rocky Balboa," which will open this month at a movie theater near you.
In reality he is 60, but Monday night Stallone looked no older than 591/2.
Does everything in sports have to be sponsored? Before the game, the Eagles ran onto the field through the Levitra inflatable tunnel.
Did you hear Keyshawn Johnson introduce the Panthers offense on the telecast? It wasn't quite Pat Summerall. Keyshawn said the starting receivers were "me and the other guy.
" Keyshawn should be thankful for "Other Guy" Steve Smith, who set up Johnson's 1-yard touchdown just before halftime by making one amazing catch-and-run and then drawing a pass interference penalty in the end zone.
The replay screens at Lincoln Financial Field are 100 percent better than the ones the Panthers have at Bank of America Stadium. Carolina's next big stadium upgrade must include huge screens like that.
In fact, the Panthers should put some money down on a couple with all that "Just In Case We Have Home Playoff Games" money they are collecting from PSL holders.
Eagles fans are relentless. They booed their offense 54 seconds into the game after Philadelphia's first three-and-out.
If I hear Joe Theismann talk about "the rhythm of the quarterback" one more time, I'm going to scream.
