My brother is on the left of Dawk, his buddy is on the right. I sat down and ate with Dawk that day. It was just me and him at the table. It was at Jeffrey Lurie's house(the current owner of the team). My mom was a high ranking human resource employee for years. I didn't bother him like some crazed fan, even though I was enamored to sit at the same table eating, just me and him there. We did BS for a few minutes though, just non-football related. My daughter had her diaper changed that same day...on Jeffrey Lurie's living room table! No lie. His wife, now ex-wife(Christina Lurie), told my child's mother to do so. What awesome times they were. My mom worked for the team over 23 years, but does so no longer. I used to get tickets to the old eagles owner's box(Norman Braman)to watch the Phillies games. They stunk at the time, he never used them, and gave them out in the office lot's of times. It was right next to the press box where they were announcing the games. Not many people have had the opportunity to sit inside the owners suite to watch a game. I did on several occasions. Life-long memories that I'll never forget.

I LITERALLY grew up with the Eagles organization as my family. It started since Ron Jaworski's last season, and Cunningham was a rookie on the bench. That's when my mom started working for the team. I was about 8 years old at that time. I've met almost all of the players and coaches that came through here from 1986-2009. My brother became a ball-boy, and got to play Madden & Billiards with McNabb and the crew very often. He was a "popular" figure among the players, no doubt about it.
Let me just tell you one thing....when I say that I bleed green...I SURELY mean it. No and's, if's, or but's about it.

Born Philly, lived on Locust st between 22nd and 23rd (southwest philly)until I was 3. My dad and Grandfather grewup in Philly. My dad got a job with an Electric company in Southern Texas, lived there in McAllen until I left for Oregon State on a Baseball scholarship(we were not that good in the early 2000's). Now me and my wife and 2 daughters live Corvallis, she works for OSU and I'm a general Foreman for Columbia Bridge and Iron & Local 29 Ironworkers. I tried like hell to convince my wife to let me go and help put the new Iron for the Linc's new expansion this off season...but she wanted me home. Some day. Where you from?

I was born in South Philly. Stayed there until the age of 7, when we moved to Southwest Philly. Stayed there til' I was 18. Moved to South Jersey at 18 years old, and been here ever since...few stints in between at other locations, but ultimately ended up back here in Washington TWP, Sewell NJ.
