  • 2010 Eagles UniDictions – Week 4 – Redskins

    Sorry I was a little slow getting this posted, and it ends up being more of a past tense prediction, but here it is was. As always, this was cross-posted on crossingbroad.com. Look for the Week 5 Unidiction on Sunday.  This has been a bad week for the uniform department of Crossingbroad.com.  First, the Eagles […]

  • 2010 Eagles UniDictions – Week 3 – Jaguars

    OK.  Let me first apologize for all of you saw  my successful week 1 Unidiction and took the week 2 numbers to Vegas.  I told you my system only went to 28 — and was based on nothing other than uniforms.  If anything would be the sign that you have a problem, betting based solely […]

  • 2010 Eagles UniDictions (uniform + predictions) – Week 2 – Lions

      A lot of stories coming out of last week’s season opener against the Packers.  Injuries, a quarterback conundrum (don’t call it a controversy!), and what turned out to be a pretty good uniform match-up.  The 1960 throwbacks, which I publicly gave a “meh” opinion, actually worked quite well on the field.  And oh yeah…my […]

  • 2010 Eagles UniDictions (uniform + predictions) – Week 1 – Packers

    This has been cross-posted on crossingbroad.com, a great destination for Philadelphia sports news. Being that all predictions for the NFL season thus far are based on a combination of  last year’s results and four pre-season games (The NFL Pre-Season — The four weeks when your friends with season tickets slightly regret their purchase!), we might as […]

  • Eagles 2010 Uniform Round-Up – The 1960 Throwback

    This has been cross-posted on Crossing Broad, an up-and-coming Philadelphia Sports destination — heck, they’re the ones who broke the story that Dorney Park was the first rehab assignment for Ryan Howard… Lil’ Shebaz: Patriot, Martyr, Wide Receiver. It’s that time of year – the notable roster additions and subtractions have been discussed, the expected […]

  • The 2008 Phillies Alternate Uniforms

    The Phillies have been one of the few teams to not have alternate uniforms in the last 15 years; the White Sox have their solid black jerseys, the Diamondbacks have their solid red and solid black, and on and on throughout the league. The Phillies have had an alternate hat the last few years, but […]

  • Navel Gazing Part 2: Sneakers as Temporal Landmarks

    Now that is a triple-word-score $5 title!(all ridiculousness aside, stick with me, I’ll explain what I mean by that later. I really couldn’t think of a more condensed name for the concept.) Those that know me and read the website (I’d wager the two are almost mutually exclusive — except for the ragtag bunch of […]

  • Oakley Twitch

    Plenty of pictures here Here’s a bit of a different topic for review: sneakers. I’m not sure if it’s a bit of a vain topic (what are we going to review next, Seersucker Suits?!), but I’m pretty enthusiastic about this particular pair of footal (it’s a word as far as I’m concerned) accessories. I’m sure […]
