An Important Eagles Fan Service Announcement


Okay so the train has been off the rails for the past couple of days. We had a signal problem that if untended would’ve led to a catastrophic wreck. Thankfully our top notch maintenance staff solved the problem.

Enjoying our break was not possible due to the fact that there is work to be done. In Tuesday’s edition of The D-train Daily, we proposed that a campaign needs to be undertaken to garner attention to a problem that affects us all. This campaign is not one to raise public awareness, but rather particular awareness. The “particular”, in this case is Eagles Head Coach Andy Reid.

The “awareness” that we are attempting to raise in Coach Reid is an affliction that he has suffered for years now and had been on display for all to see. And it should be said that his affliction has caused the Eagles and thus Eagles fans to also suffer. What is Big Red’s affliction? It is evident that he suffers from steadfast refusal to run the ball with any consistency over the course of a season.

How do we intend to raise Coach Reid’s awareness you might ask? Simple, we will run the ball… from Lincoln Financial Field to the beginning of training camp in Bethlehem, PA. It seems to us that extreme action must be taken to combat Reid’s extreme stubbornness. We can no longer just bitch, whine, moan, and complain about Reid’s unbalanced approach to offense. We must act. And as Bayard Rustin once said, “you must act and you must do so with your body.”


This event, The D-train Run to Run the Ball (benefiting those unaware of the power of balanced offense) is the beginning of a movement. You see, if balance on offense doesn’t happen, then neither will the Eagles bring a Lombardi Trophy to the area as long as Big Red is here. So with a healthy contract extension in place, our only course of action is to change, or alter, the Mad-bombing Mormon. It is the only way to get that Super Bowl victory we all so desperately crave.

So as you all are watching the conference title games this Sunday, think of us. We will be training, making the sacrifice, doing our part to bring Super Bowl glory to Philadelphia.

Enjoy your weekend, and may the Awesomeness be with you.
