I wanted to take the time to acknowledge the Philadelphia Phillies. They had a great season and have done great thus far in the playoffs. They are about to take part in their second straight World Series - no
easy task - and face the New York Yankees.

I have a few friends on the Phillies and hope that they can make it two Championships in a row.

While focusing on the football field, it's not always easy to appreciate the support that we - the Eagles - get from our fans. Don't
get me wrong, we feel it and appreciate it but sometimes you have to go outside your own experience to really see it. That's why I enjoy watching the Phillies. This city has come alive over the past few seasons in regards to baseball. The Phillies have given Philadelphia something special and its exciting to witness the togetherness between the team and its fans. It really is something special.

I hope I can reward our fans the same way.

Go Phillies!
