Not For Laundry

Whether you’re into it or not, there’s something magical about football season. Maybe it’s the combination of perfectly breezy weather, a sea of jerseys painting the streets green, and the collective screams of frustration or whoops of joy echoing across neighborhoods. There’s just such an inspirational sense of camaraderie uniting us all through the power of Eagles’ Nation.

That is, until someone throws the remote at the TV. And they will. Oh, they will.
