About Ron »

Born, raised and currently residing in Philadelphia. My life as a sportsfan has been the motivation for my writing. Looking at the current state of sports makes me long for the days of my youth. From time to time I'll give you a blast of nostalgia which is always good and then maybe a cold, hard look at the world we live in today. Whatever I give you - just know that it'll be straight - no chaser.

And yes, I still long for the day when Broad St. will rain Championship confetti and flow with champagne.

As not just an Eagle fan but an NFL fan, I think McNabb will carry the team on his shoulders.

I'm scared of it too, because no Westbrook=trouble.
