Starting point is 00:00:00 All right, let's see here. So the Eagles are still looking for an offensive coordinator at last I checked. And they're struggling to find one. And they're kind of in a spot now where the fan base doesn't know how to feel because on one hand, they're like, why the hell can't we get an offensive coordinator? But on the same hand or at a different hand, I guess, they sit back and they're like, there's nothing wrong with us. If you don't want this job, you're the piece of shit.
Starting point is 00:00:24 And it's like, Philly people are fun because they don't have the ability to look in the mirror. And to a degree, that's kind of commendable, right? Like, they cannot acknowledge that they could be part of the problem, that Philly could be part of the problem, that maybe some reason why people don't want to be in Philadelphia could have to do with the media, the fans, the drama within the organization, I mean, the weather, the city. Like, they cannot accept that. In the minds of Philly people, the only way anybody could look at the Eagles and not take the job is because they're too big of a pussy to be. be in Philadelphia. That is the only reason. And that is the only reason people in Philly will ever give you. Like if they want someone, but that person doesn't want them, it is a that person problem,
Starting point is 00:01:09 not a Philly problem. And to a degree, I find that commendable. Philly is like the embodiment of like a really heavy set woman who thinks she's just too much man for all the dudes that don't want to fuck her. Like, that's how I view Philadelphia. Like Philadelphia is the fat, bingo-winged woman who wears clothes that are way too small, fat hanging over the side, thong just getting swallowed into her ass, you can't see her underwear. Norbert's wife, like Raspusia Latimore. Like that is essentially what Philly people are. Like, now, granted, Philly is a better looking place than those people, but I'm talking about,
Starting point is 00:01:46 like, the confidence that these people have. The people in Philadelphia possess a confidence that is that of a heavyset woman of Raspusia Latimore, Norb... Everybody know Raspusia Latimer. I'm all fine. Like, it's always somebody else's fault. It's the fault of the people that don't want to fuck you, and it's not the fault of you for being unfuckable. And I admire that about Philadelphia people.
Starting point is 00:02:10 If we're being completely honest, I find that whole thing to be admirable because they are able to convince themselves that even the prettiest person in the world that doesn't want them, it is on them and not on the Philadelphia people. All right. So let's play a few commercials. I'm curious to see what the WIP Morning Show has to say about the. the offensive coordinator search, because at least by the headline, it seems they think that maybe egging Kevin Petulow's house.
Starting point is 00:02:34 Like, this is the new thing that Philly people are doing. Again, they don't want to look at the bigger picture issues with the city, with the fan base, nothing. They just want to look at isolated incidents and say, yep, that's why we can't get an offensive coordinator. So let's play a few commercials and then play this audio. At Desjardin Insurance, we know that when you own a cleaning company, things need to be tidy and organized at every step.

All right, so this is Judd Camera talking about the people who egged Kevin Petulow's house and the impact this must be happening. on their quest to find an offensive coordinator. The intensity around here led fools to egg the last guy's house. And the shame of it is that, I don't even know if they ever found those guys.
Starting point is 00:03:43 That might have been two people, that might have been ten people. I don't know what it was. But I do know this. We all get tagged with it. That's Philadelphia sports fans. Aged Kevin Petulow's house. Okay. Now, again, this is what Philly people struggle with.
Starting point is 00:03:59 They like to find isolated examples of people do. doing asshole things and say, oh, we all get lumped into this. And yeah, not everybody's egging the fucking coach's house. But like the media people can't see that they're part of the problem. Like this is 2026. If you're a coach, and look, it's an NFL job. So like if you have a chance to coach in Philly, Philly's not a bad job. Although it seems like there's some drama surrounding it that's kind of turned some people off.
Starting point is 00:04:26 Whatever. Okay. But Philly is a, as I've said, Philly is the most passionate sports town for better or worse in America. it is that the people in Philadelphia have the mindset of a nine-year-old kid. These people have never grown up sports-wise past nine years of age. That's just how Philadelphia people are. And there's a weird bravado. There's like a self-loathing as well as a bravado, the likes of which I've never seen. Like on one hand, Kevin, I don't know, Mike McDaniel doesn't want the job. Well, fuck him. He's a piece of shit and he's not tough enough for Philly, but in the same breath,
Starting point is 00:04:58 like, what doesn't Mike McDaniel want us? Like, that's Philly. There's this weird combination of brash, bravado, and self-loathing. It's a fascinating place. But if you think the only reason why, and they don't believe this, none of these people actually believe this, nobody can believe that the one reason why, there's just one isolated reason as to why you're not getting the offensive coordinator you want, and it's because some slap dicks egged a guy's house.
Starting point is 00:05:23 I assure you worse things have happened to coaches and players by people in Philadelphia than a guy's house getting egged. Now, does that play a factor? probably. That just adds to the mystique and the lore and the, uh, and everything about Philadelphia. But for a media person to go on the radio and just basically say, look, we're all lumped into this category because the guy threw the eggs at the house, you're also part of the problem. Do you think if a guy has the option to go down to South Beach or Tampa or wherever a nice LA, nice warm weather place where the media is a little bit softer and doesn't have to deal with your fake contrived
Starting point is 00:05:58 bullshit on a regular basis and not have to deal with getting his house egged, potentially, which by the way, that kind of shit does happen in other places. I'm not trying to, you know, stump for Philly here. But it does. Like I, like, what was it at Houston where someone left a, like someone was outside of Aryan Foster's house? Look, people have done dumb shit everywhere. Okay. That happens everywhere. So it's not just exclusive to Philly. But Philadelphia people like to find one example because that makes it easier than having to look at the big picture, which in 2026, when people have options and people have options as to where they want to live and you don't hold the world hostage, like, you're not a very appealing place to live. You're not a very
Starting point is 00:06:37 appealing place to work. And it's not just people egging the offensive coordinator's house. Like, that's the easy, lazy take on it. But like, Mike McDaniel went to L.A. Real talk. It's fucking middle of December, January. Where would you rather be? Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, having to deal with meathead dipshits on a regular basis. And I'm talking media people. People that don't really give a shit about telling the people what is real or giving their honest opinions. The media people whose sole purpose it is is to drum up bullshit. There is not a city, like, for as passionate as the sports fans are in Philadelphia, there is not a city across the country where more bullshit is drummed up by the media
Starting point is 00:07:19 than Philadelphia. There's big media. New York's got big media. L.A. has got big media. Chicago's got big media. Philadelphia is designed media-wise to produce. phone calls to carry radio shows. That's it.
Starting point is 00:07:34 It is designed to produce drama to sell papers and subscriptions, more so than any city in the country. So if you're a coach and you have options, mind you, and it's to be an offensive coordinator and your choice saying I'll be an offensive coordinator in Philadelphia and get shit on by the media constantly and live in miserable weather and have to hear made up contrive shit from media people all day. or I can go out to L.A., which, by the way, he may very well view Justin Herbert as a better quarterback than the option you have in Philadelphia. Oh, but he's up into the two Super Bowls? No, he hasn't, but maybe he thinks he's a more talented guy who can get him to those Super Bowls. You think of that?
Starting point is 00:08:14 L.A. is a better place to live. Like, I wouldn't want to live in L.A., but weather-wise, everything else, and your option is to live in Philadelphia, L.A.? The media is softer in L.A.? That make you a pussy, by the way. Like, I get that Philly people are able to convince themselves that only pussies want to go places where the media is not tough and the fans aren't tough. No, you can be a tough guy, but maybe you just don't want to deal with the bullshit. You know, that could be part of it. Like, Philly is a tough place, it is.
Starting point is 00:08:38 But a lot of it's contrived toughness. And it's contrived and generated by the media and it's driven by bullshit. And you get a lot of that there. So to hear media people, like, that's rich. Oh, the rest of us look bad because the guy got his hair sagged. Do you think that it makes you look good that every day you're on the air shitting on everything about the teams and the town? and making shit. Do you think people want to deal with that?
Starting point is 00:09:02 Like, you have to look in the mirror past. Oh, some guys got their houses egged. Three coordinator and football knows it. Everyone. And you know who also knows it? The wives of the candidates. Because when the wives talk to the candidates, the men that are their husband,
Starting point is 00:09:19 about, all right, let's, we got seven openings. Maybe there's four of them are really interested in. Honey, let's put together pros and cons. Let's put the ledger on a piece of, of paper. There's pros here. I mean, there's three guys in the last four years, or three years that have gotten a head coaching job from here. Three. This is true. That's not wrong. But you're also, again, is it possible that two, three years ago, Sequan Barclay wasn't washed? Two, three years ago, A.J. Brown, I mean, he's always been a mental case, but he's a mental case now.
Starting point is 00:09:51 Like, there's a lot more that goes into this. Like, if your whole selling point is, they egg the guy's house, and now anybody want to call him play with us, like if that, if that's, you know, That's like your whole thing, bro. Like, you know you're full of shit and you don't have the ability to look in the mirror, but you don't care to look in the mirror because that's the whole act of the Philly media guy and the whole job is to get people to call. That is why Philly Sports Radio exists to get dipshits to call. You know, I mean, two on offense, one on defense.
Starting point is 00:10:16 Like, there's a lot of success here. There's a lot on the pro side of the ledger. There's a lot on the pro side. But, like, don't kid yourself. Those kids that egg the house. That is a freaking setback in hiring a coordinator. I mean, dude, you make it sound like nothing bad has ever happened in Philly before some jagoffs through some eggs at a guy's house. You have, you lack the ability to look in the mirror and there's no accountability and the fans don't have any accountability and the media people don't have any accountability.
Starting point is 00:10:51 They all refuse to look in the mirror. That's the problem with Philadelphia people in this. Is that part of it? sure. But like, what if, like, the fact that the guys had the job for one year and the team went to the playoffs and the guy got fired? Do you think that doesn't play a factor that after one year the guy got whacked? That could play a factor. The fact that every time you walked into the stadium and your offense wasn't humming, you were booed incessantly. Look, and I'm not going to rip fans, boo whatever the fuck you want to, you know, boo. That's your life and you pay for the tickets. But, like, do you think that doesn't play a factor? Do you think the fact that the coach seemingly is always on the hot seat, despite the fact that he's been to the Super Bowl twice and won one of them? Do you think that's not a factor? Like, like, like, the way people are spinning this is like the Eagles would have whoever they wanted,
Starting point is 00:11:42 if not for the fact these guys got their houses. This guy got his house egg. And it's not true. It's bullshit. Anybody with a brain knows that. But again, Philly media, Philly people in general do not have the ability to look in the mirror and take any accountability for anything. in the same way that somebody doesn't want the job, he must be a pussy,
Starting point is 00:11:59 or somebody doesn't want the job, it must be the fault of this one isolated incident, people have the inability to look at themselves in the mirror and say, hey, maybe the way we've done shit forever is maybe not the greatest way to do it as a fan or whatever, but they'll never do that. Because the wives know that the last guy's house got egged. And that's tough, man. That's tough for the dude that's going to be the O.C. That's tough for the one.
Starting point is 00:12:22 Yeah, sure. Let's saddle up there. I don't buy that at all. Like, I guess to an extent, but like to me, that is a far. Do you think these guys don't deal with shit everywhere they go? Do you think that Mike McDaniel didn't take shit in Miami from people? Like, do you think, like, like, if that makes you sleep better at night, if that, if that's, you know, just throwing the blame on those dudes that threw eggs at the guy's house.
Starting point is 00:12:43 If that helps you get through the night, then rock on. If that makes you feel better about your situation, rock on. Cool beans, brother, cool beans. But, like, it is a far, far less of an issue than you're letting on. It's because you refuse to look at yourself and say, hey, we're shitheads in the media. We just make shit up as we go because we have four hours to fill. And we need calls because somehow calls are the lifeblood of radio in Philadelphia. So our job is to go bait dipshits into calling and arguing with us.
Starting point is 00:13:11 But you won't do that. You'll never look at that. And I understand you won't look at that. And the fans will never look at themselves. But there's a lot more to it than just, I got his house egged. Now this house got egged. Now the wives don't want to come here and play. and now we can't find offense coordinator.
Starting point is 00:13:26 There's a lot of praise here. How about you look at the issues with the fucking team? That could be a problem. Do you think Sequin Barclay is going to be the guy he was two years ago? Do you think Jalen Hertz is the guy he was two years ago? Do you think the offensive line is the line it was two years ago? Do you think that A.J. Brown is going to just stop being a mental case or even that A.J. Brown will be around.
Starting point is 00:13:50 But instead of looking at things to go, wow, an NFL former NFL head coach who's considered an offensive genius decided to go, you know what, I'm going to go coach Justin Herbert over Jalen Hertz. Now, he's the fucking idiot. Like he's a moron. Like so he's the dumb one now. Right, great. He's the moron.
Starting point is 00:14:07 But you refuse to look at any of that. You just say, guy, guy, got his house egg. What are we going to do? Guy got his house egg. Can't get a guy because there's morons. And I don't mean, use your brains.
