I gotta go with the Bucs closing down the old Vet with an unexpected beatdown of the Eagles followed up by opening of the new stadium with a shutout.

Dawkins is better off on a team with championship lineage anyway. Besides he’s going to retire as a Bronco so it’s a moot point. I can’t really imagine what Philly has ever done right. They’ve been a beacon of futility in the sports world. The Dallas Mavericks of the NFL. Your team has problems so deep they’ll never be resolved. It doesn’t matter how much talent you have on this team because they always find new and interesting ways to fall on their faces.

Never winning a Super Bowl
Reggie White going to GB
The loss of Jerome Brown
Vick gets the Ed Block courage award.
Dawkins walks and that was just wrong.

Hey Jeffro…..

Listen sport, you might want to get your facts straight before commenting…..It was Mcnabb’s dad who accused TO of black on black crime..Not TO…..TO was right about McNabb all along……

easy choice, 2010 season, January 2011 when Reid, Vick and the Eagles were getting to ride their awesome talents to their 1st SB win ever….. they run into and lose on their home field 16-21 to the GB Packers in the wild-card game and crush the hopes and dreams of their devoted fans ONE MORE TIME!!!

T.O doing calisthenics on his front yard surrounded by media, a week after accusing McNabb of a black-on-black crime….

Ugly.

The Ray Rhodes “don’t let em rape” your family inspirational speech, while talkin about a game..

Rick Kotite beginning the season 7-2,talking contract,…and ending up 7-9

The guy who got a free standing room only ticket to the NFC Champ. Game versus Atlanta, for helping shovel 20 some odd inches of snow in the seats, and lost a hand to frostbite cause the team didn’t provide them with gloves….And the team blaming him.

Randall Cunningham’s gold tipped shoelaces…

The fact they let someone wear Reggie White’s # 92 the training camp following his departure…

15 years of….”Having to do a better job there”

The 14-3 loss to Carolina, yes again….Damn that was the most pathetic showing by a group of men ever…..

The Kelly Green Jersey’s departure…

And Finally, Letting Dawk walk, And then telling everyone he will always be an Eagle……Then why isn’t he still?

losing to tampa and carolina in the 2002 and 2003 was tough to deal with. along with the 1998 season before mcnabb was drafted when we went 2-14 or whatever it was.

but not resigning reggie white was the biggest disappointment, hands down. not resigning dawkins is close but most fans were resigned to that fact he would be moving on since he was on a lame duck contract.

It’s been said, but I have to go with McNabb to Barber. And, just because it was so obvious, Mamula over Sapp.

They Hoagie ban was a joke, but forgotten in the uproar of the Hoagie ban, was the fact they built a stadium worth hundreds of millions of dollars, and forgot, (except for the VIP section of course) to put in water fountains,or as they called it an “oversight”. What Design firm builds a public building and forgets water fountains? But they did have water for 5 bucks a bottle…

Other worst moments….
The 14-3 Loss to Carolina in the NFC Champ Game…
The fact Bob Kraft bought the Pats, as that was team Jeffy wanted to buy with borrowed money from Mommy…
Signing Jevon Kearse, a huge waste of money…
Braman making the players buy their own socks and jocks during training camp…
Bobby Hoying….
Kevin Allen testing positive for coke after arriving at training camp, and then spending 3 years in prison for sexual assault. Banned from the league…9th pick in the draft
Freddie Mitchell…..
Joe Banner trying to convice himself and Eagles fans that the Eagles are on par with the Steelers…
The Flare fired from the Flare gun at the Vet…
My Uncle missing Jimmy Johnson with a snowball at the Vet from the 700 level, inches away…..
I could go on All day….

I’d second McNabb puking on the field during the Super Bowl

…but I’ll try to be kind as despite their 6 Super Bowl appearances and 3 Championships, the Patriots have as long a list of worst moments as any team out there

Not re-signing Reggie White was a huge disappointment….

How the eagles just let him walk away is beyond me

By: tbpdog

tbpdog — Tue, 07 Jun 2011 12:53:08 +0000

really though, you could also list the 1. Eagles refusing to pay 8 million dollars they owe the city of Philly (which is broke as it is), 2. firing a mentally handicapped stadium worker for complaining on facebook about Brian Dawkins getting released, 3 Joe Banner telling a 40+ year fan on the radio to find another team if he didn’t like what the Eagles were doing, and Jeff Lurie calling the Eagles the gold standard of the NFL….you know, without winning 1 SB……………….class organization

Hands down, no-brainer worst moment-

Making Bad Newz Ron Mexico our starting QB.

2nd worst- Signing the no-character bum in the first place!

BOTH are worse than losing Super Bowls, losing Reggie White to FA, losing Brian Dawkins etc.

——————————————–

Agree 100% Kev!! Nothing tops signing that sadistic, evil, no character POS.

5) Jerome Brown dying before ’92
4)Randall Cunningham blowing out his knee wk one of 1991 season
3) losing Reggie White after ’92
2) Worst 2-minute drive ever in S.B. / McNabb puking
1) NFC Champ loss to TB – this one hurt more then the other four combined

Honorable mention: NFC champ loss to Carolina, NFC champ loss to AZ, back to back losses to Cowboys at end of ’09, drafting freddie mitchell, the whole 2005 season (TO suspended, McNabb, Westbrook, Dawkins, Sheppard all injured). the Fog Bowl, 1995 divisional playoff game when Peete got injured and Cunningham came in and sucked because he hadn’t practiced all week b/c his kid was born etc.

Vermeil melting down then leaving the team empty of talent.
I’ll never forgive him for that.

you should do a feature on the Eagles greatest moments………LOL other than some stuff in the 1950′s and a couple SB loses it will be a very short list

@derekjetersmansion that story is very true. they tried to keep fans from bringing their own food to the game. and they did blame it on terrorism. absolutely true. just scandalous.

This should be good. I’m sure the entire thing will be about booing, and nothing to do with what happened on the field of play.

I have been to every eagles game in the last 10 years and lets be honest I am only 22 and boy have I seen some bad games. the AZ loss where they return the kick to the 3 after we kicked a game leading field goal with like 10 seconds left. we blew a 24 7 lead to the giants in the fourth qtr. the 3 picks to ricky manning jr, the superbowl disaster, the TO driveway act. Rush Limbaugh. How about the dallas loss where mcnabb threw a pick with 1 minute left and got knocked out for the rest of the year on the same play. We got fourth and 9 against the saints on divisional weekend only to have it called back on a false start and then punted and the saints ran out the clock. blown out back to back weekends to end the season against Dallas. the loss to open the linc wasn’t fun, nor was the night we retired reggie white’s #92 only to lose 42-0 to the worst NFC champion in the past 20 years the Seattle Seahawks. the hole sean mcdermott era when the guy couldn’t call a good game to save his life. we drafted mike mamula for god sakes, that might be the worst of them all.

My personal favorite:

Losing to the Skins, 20-6, in the 1990 playoffs, at the Vet. Earnest Byner fumbled deep in Philly territory near the end of the first half, with the Eagles returning it for a touchdown, only to have it called back because Byner was down. Then, Buddy Ryan benched Randall Cunningham in favor of Jim McMahon. After a three-and-out, Cunningham was put back in, but he was furious about being benched. That win avenged that season’s Monday night “bodybag game.”

The absolute worst moment for the Eagles had to be losing the NFC Championship game to Tampa Bay after the 2002 season. This was the game everyone expected the Eagles to win and advance to the Super Bowl. They had dominated Tampa Bay the past few years and had beaten them easily during the regular season. After Duce Staley scored a touchdown literally within seconds on the opening kickoff there was no doubt that the Eagles would soon be celebrating the victory. It went all downhill from there. Its certainly the most deflating loss that I’ve ever witnessed by the Eagles.

There have been so many and they’ve all been so wonderful….

Rich Kotite was great

Pelting relentlessly a couple of 49ers fans with snow balls was awesome too

beating up and booing Santa Claus

Sit-ups in the driveway…

my personal favorite was the 10 minute long 2 minute drill in Super Bowl XXXIX. McNabb pukes, Patriots win 3 Super Bowls in 4 years. Couldn’t be a more perfect day!!!
