The last guest prognosticator of 2011 is @scrappled of Black Shoe Diaries<\/a>, a Philly sports fan. He’s been here before<\/a>. Let’s get it on!<\/p>\n

WFY: If Michael Vick fought and executed your puppies would you favor irrevocable…Okay, that’s OLD news since Vick went to the Pro Bowl last year and signed a big contract so he’s a good person again, right? How has he done this season, a 7-8 season?<\/strong><\/p>\n

@scrappled:<\/strong> Okay, I suppose. The Eagles massively screwed up by not bolstering their offensive line, which leads to the evasive but undersized Vick taking too many shots. Not to mention, Vick has no idea how to slide. Bambi on ice is more graceful than a Michael Vick hook slide.
\n
\nWFY: 7-8? D.C. was into falling flat after being OFFSEASON CHAMPIONS way before Philly. Is the clock running out on head coach Andy Reid? Does he still run a worse two minute drill than Penn State and its
\n3-tiered play calling (of the past, I guess)?<\/strong><\/p>\n

@scrappled: <\/strong> I’d be shocked if Reid didn’t return. For as much as we love to hate our head coaches, Reid is one of the best in the NFL when it comes to weekly preparation. Game management? Ugh. Nightmare.
\n
\nWFY: Where do the Redskins\/D.C. fall in terms of Eagles\/Philly rivalries?<\/strong><\/p>\n

@scrappled: <\/strong> I’ve always viewed them as interchangeable, although I suspect thousands of Philly fans would disagree. To me, the level of hate corresponds with the success of rivals at that particular time. If the Redskins were a constant playoff presence, they’d be higher on the list.<\/p>\n

WFY: Do you watch Eagles games with the sound turned down and the radio turned up?<\/strong><\/p>\n

@scrappled: <\/strong> Oh, how I wish. I don’t get the Merrill Reese radio broadcast in my house, so I’m usually stuck with whatever garbage announcing crew Fox forces upon me.<\/p>\n

WFY: Who are the standouts for Eagles media coverage?<\/strong><\/p>\n

@scrappled: <\/strong> Bleeding Green Nation<\/a> and Iggles Blog<\/a> are both excellent, and the traditional Inquirer\/Daily News guys on Philly.com<\/a> have always been good. We’re lucky in the sense that our beat writers and columnists are generally of high quality. The local sports radio? Yeah, not so much. Idiots leading idiots.<\/p>\n

WFY: Of the 4 major Philly teams, which one winning a championship would mean more to you? To the city\/region?<\/strong><\/p>\n

@scrappled: <\/strong> Oh, it has to be the Eagles, especially with the Phillies breaking the urse a few years ago. Only with the Phillies’ recent success has baseball crept into a virtual tie with football in the region’s heart. But over the course of time? It’s a football city.<\/p>\n

WFY: I’ve heard that an upstart, the roast pork sandwich, is challenging the cheesesteak for gastronomical supremacy in the city of brotherly love. I finally had the latter at a Tony Luke’s in Sea Isle City<\/a> and enjoyed it, but not as much as the former. Which side are you on?<\/strong><\/p>\n

@scrappled: <\/strong> I’m with you, cheesesteaks now and forever. And you know what? I don’t even care who makes it. I try to avoid Pat’s and Geno’s as a matter of convenience, but I’m not a cheesesteak elitist.<\/p>\n

WFY: Based on all the time I’ve been around Philly fans, I know you guys want to be told by a Washingtonian how the Eagles uniforms should look<\/a>. That crushes the current kit every day of the week and twice on Sunday, doesn’t it?
\n<\/strong>
\n@scrappled: <\/strong> Totally. Love the old Kelly Green. I don’t hate the newer look quite
\nas much as you, but it’s hard to beat that classic kit.<\/p>\n

WFY: Since the Skins and Iggles always split and the road team usually wins how sad are you going to be when the inevitable happens?<\/strong><\/p>\n

@scrappled: <\/strong> Over it. Don’t care. The difference between 7-9 and 8-8 means
\nnothing to me with our longshot chances of a division title being dashed by the inept Jets, so let’s get the higher draft pick. Die, Eagles, Die!<\/p>\n

WFY: On the wings of mediocrity? I-G-G-L-E-S!<\/p>\n

I’m going with the burgundy and gold here, they always split the series. Let’s say 23-14<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
