Eagles start the party

So Rangers couldn't do it on Saturday, but the Eagles sure did last night. It was one of those great sporting occasions where all the cards had to fall into place, and they did.

Chicago or Minnesota had to lose, and Chicago did (thanks Pazen & Andrew); Tampa Bay had to lose, and they did; leaving the Eagles needing to beat hated rivals Dallas Cowboys for a place in the Playoffs.

They didn't beat the Cowboys - they destroyed them 44-6 at the Linc. So it's off to Minnesota next Sunday for the first - and hopefully not the last - playoff game.

Isn't sport wonderful.
