In that spirit, we have up to date our “Superior Tremendous Bowl Playlist” with tons of Philly G.O.A.T.s: Jill Scott, Corridor & Oates, Boyz II Males, The Roots, The Warfare on Medication, The Delfonics, Alex G, and plenty of extra. Tune in because the candy odor of an Eagles victory begins to waft by means of the air (or is that grease being smeared on the lamp posts down Broad Avenue?)
Both means, a win is imminent. We’re positive of it. As positive as we’re that Jason Kelce is the cooler brother. Or, that West Studying-born Taylor Swift secretly wears silver and midnight inexperienced below all that Chiefs pink. Or, that it is spelled E-A-G-L-E-S. And, as positive as I’m that World Cafe govt producer Bruce Warren (aka, my boss) will give all of us the next Monday off if — no, when — the Eagles declare their victory this Sunday.
Benefit from the tunes, and go Birds.
