The Grateful Dead are making a goal line stand against time this weekend in Chicago. While I'm not as impressed with the results as many fans seem to be, you have to say they're showing surprising resilience despite their aging front line and the loss of their first two quarterbacks to (fatal) injuries.
Now Pete Carroll is more of a Deadhead than anyone connected with the Eagles, but as an organization the band has shared two important strategies that also build Chip Kelly's success.
1) Practice, Practice, Practice.
Preparing for this last home stand, the band spent literally months practicing despite not having played in 20 years.
