Good. Fuck trump. Fuck Russia, including the republican traitor filth.
What, not hungry for cold mcdonalds?
For this reason I’m glad they won.
- You sound like a fan of another team in the nfc east
  
  I'm with OhStopYellingAtMe and I'm an NFC South boy. I don't think the Eagles are as reviled as the Chiefs or Cowboys, but that stock has been climbing for decades
  
  Oh no. I’m also glad they won because fuck the Chiefs. So there are 2 reasons.
As a cowboys fan, first off, fuck the Eagles.

As a human being, fuck yeah, go Eagles.
- As a Jets fan, fuck my team, fuck ~~America's team~~ the cowboys, and sure whatever go birds
  
  Oh under my breath I'm always saying fuck the cowboys. I grew up in the early 90s and the Aikmen, Smith, Irvin era and got spoiled. Now I just get to hear every year is our year and secretly put a paper bag over my head as I watch as each season goes to shit.
I don't give a shit about football, and Philadelphia is one of my least favorite cities, but I am now an Eagles fan.
- We're all, now Eagles fans.
- "and Philadelphia is one of my least favorite cities"
  
  ..and I took that personally.
  
  Hey at least they're not Detroit.
I love Megyn Kelly’s all caps vitriol beside the admission that she barely cares about football. What a life. The smoke signal goes up and you jump online to shit-stir—transparently so.
- She’s just lack-of-virtue signaling
- She's got to course-correct after having the unmitigated gall(!) to suggest women might want to consider having their finances and careers in order before getting married and having kids.
Wait, a team largely made up of black and brown men didn’t want to visit the old racist guy?
Go birds!
I hate myself a little for typing this, but, Fly Eagles, Fly!
- ???
  
  Could you explain the problem with saying that/Why say that
  
  Guessing they're a Cowboys fan.
based
Gonna miss out on those sweet hamberders
Been a rough week for the White House when it comes to sports. Little victories should be celebrated.
Fucking go Birds. Best team in football!
Go birds!
When I saw Josh Hawley was rooting for the Chiefs I became a lifelong Eagles fan. This just makes me happier about my lifelong fandom.
- He is a senator of Missouri so it makes the most sense for him to be a fan.
Good for the Eagles.
The *Whitey house
I'm starting to think those people in the White House are Not Like Us ...
They can buy McDonald's whenever they want.
Hell yeah
How embarrassing it must be to be a journalist who quotes "social media users" in their article.
- If everyone is a journalist no one is a journalist.
