Try to imagine how you'd be feeling if your team had just doubled its total playoff victories in history with this two-game run. :) As for the game, I hope it turns out as you predict. Most pundits are picking the Eagles to win. So they're facing an underdog, on the road -- not a good combination. There have been lots of stories in this year's playoffs. The least-winningest NFC championship game in history (two nine-win teams). The uselessness of the bye. The prevalence of birds. I'm just happy to have the first two Cards home playoff games (last week and next) in sixty years. :) Yes, but you Eagles fans are used to playoff ups and downs.

I’m having real fun watching these playoffs upset. More importantly I’m watching with my cousins from Australia here in Malaysia, guess what??? It’s back to back punting victory to see both Graham and Rocca, facing off in next weeks Championship game. I will admit that I have no regrets skipping a day from work just watch the match. It was worthwhile. Aussie!!! Aussie!!! John http://mundoalbiceleste.blogspot.com Way to go Eagles!!! I’m having real fun watching these playoffs upset.

Especially in a season when an Eagles playoff run seemed improbable as little as a month ago, my mood has definitely been better (and has not declined) since the Birds' win this afternoon. Additionally, I find myself cautiously optimistic about next week's game, although that could easily be considered irrational in this town! I agree.
