I first became interesed in the Eagles around 1995 or so I think. For some reason I was a huge fan of Ricky Watters when I was a little kid and he signed with them that year. Can't say I was a big fan because I was really only a casual NFL fan at the time. I still really liked the CFL back then.
In the summer of 2001 I was in Philadelphia doing some charity work and the Eagles organization was awesome to me. They put me up in the mayor's box for a preseason game against the Jets and I got to go down to the sidelines and meet Donovan McNabb, Corey Simon and Harold Carmichael. Been a hardcore fan ever since.
