WHEN I STARTED doing Eagles "Post Game Live" on Comcast SportsNet, some sports journalists said I had no business talking about sports because I wasn't an "expert" and never played football beyond high school.
Of course, their complaints were off base because I never held myself out to be an expert - just a longtime fan and I was clear that I would try to present the fans' perspective on TV - and that's also been my goal with this column.
Having said that, let me crow a little bit. Last year in this column, I predicted the Eagles would be 9-3 going into the last quarter of the season.
