Eagles Beat Giants - McNabb Gets Taunting Penalty for Picking up Phone on Giants Sidelines
Midwest Sports Fans — Thanks to our friend Robert Littal over at Black Sports Online for the tip on this one. During today’s NFC Divisional Round playoff game between the Eagles and Giants, which the Eagles won 23-11 to advance to the NFC Championship game next weekend, Donovan McNabb was flagged for a taunting penalty late in the game after picking up the telephone on the Giants’ sidelines. I actually missed this play when it happened, but heard Joe Buck and Troy Aikman talking about it afterwards. Luckily for McNabb and the Eagles, the game had already been iced away and the penalty did not have any adverse effect on the outcome. ...

Donovan McNabb Picks Up A Telephone On The Giants Bench
FanIQ Blog — Donovan McNabb got flagged for unsportsmanlike conduct, for dialing long distance on someone else's phone during the Philadelphia Eagles 23-11 win over the New York Giants. McNabb ran for 8 yards on a second down play, and ran out of bounds into the Giants bench area. He picked up the phone, and pretended to talk to someone, and was promptly flagged for a 15 yard penalty, pushing the Eagles back from a 3rd and 1 to a 3rd and 16. After the game, he immediately said that he regretted his actions after that play. Anyone have any idea who he was calling? I have a ...

New Year, Same Run
Pleats 'n Cleats — I heard you can only say happy new year for a week, but I think it's allowed whenever you haven't spoken to someone since last year. So, HAPPY NEW YEAR!!! Thanks to all who have sent me stories and said they missed me. I missed you, too. Without further ado, let's jump into the first run of the new year: 1. Donovan McNabb can really be a beast sometimes. And sometimes he can really be a fool. I've said before that winning covers up a multitude of sins. For those who didn't see it, near the end of the Philadelphia Eagles win over the New York Giants, a game in which Eli Manning ...

Donovan McNabb Needs To Use The Phone
Intentional Foul — Apparently, McNabb needed to tell the world the Giants reign as Super Bowl Champions is now over. Naturally, because of their complete offensive inefficiency, the New York Football Giants want Plaxico Burress to return to the team–proving once again that winning trumps everything and punishment-related talk is just that: lip service–unless your name is Pacman Jones. Next up for the Eagles, a trip to Phoenix to play the Arizona Cardinals for the right to go the Super Bowl. It feels incredibly weird just typing that previous sentence. However, the fact ...
