on a sad night that we lose a filled off the legend and Kwame Brown. I will try to cheer

you up through the evening. I'm Spike Eskin.

However, I know we all like to spend the evening talking about Kwame, but I think there

are more important things to do. By the way, Sixers lose again. And if you're worried about

the winning too many games, you need worry no more. Do not worry. Get ready to complain

that the Eagles were in previously, the mock, the middle, that everybody's in Indianapolis,

Chicago, Oakland, Cincinnati, Arizona. These teams could all win or lose to each other every single

Then there's the bottom of the NFL. They're the horrible teams, Jacksonville, Atlanta. The Eagles

before were in that third level. Now the difference between the middle and the good, the main

difference, and this is what Andy Reed was an expert at actually, is beating the teams that you're
