We wrote a couple days ago about the possibility of the NFL forcing Chip Kelly and the Eagles to be the subject of HBO’s Hard Knocks show. The entire premise was the Eagles fit each category that a team needs to fit in order to either volunteer or be selected by the NFL to appear on the show.
With Chip Kelly’s firing last night, the Eagles no longer are eligible to be featured on the show, which is too bad. I was looking forward to the possibility of seeing that high school drama inside the NovaCare Complex play out on national television.
Whatever team is chosen for the show, or volunteers for the show, godspeed.
