Now You Can Be A Sideline Reporter For The Philadelphia Eagles

I saw this last night and at the time, this was going to be my only post either last night or this morning, depending on how I felt after the game. Of course, the Vick signing happened, Macchione apologized, and Fox announced their announcing line-up changes, things that I was not expecting on happening when I was watching commercials during the Eagles game at 8:00 PM ET last night. But as the title says, you can now live out the dream that you always wanted and be a sideline reporter for the Eagles final pre-season game against the New York Jets. And boy oh boy, did last night's happenings ever add some excitement to the young fellow/lady who wins this! From The Eagles Official Website.

Have you ever watched the preseason games on Eagles Television Network and dreamed about being on the sidelines interviewing the players? Well, you don't have to dream anymore because time's yours. Yes, in our new contest, Time's Yours presented by Pepsi, the winner will get the chance to be a sideline reporter for the preseason finale against the New York Jets. Grab a camera and film yourself talking about any subject you like. Let your personality show! Tell us why we should pick you. Once you're done, all you have to do is fill out the contest form and upload your video. Have fun and maybe we'll see you score a one-on-one interview with your favorite player when the Eagles take on the Jets.

That sounds like a sweet idea! Although it would be even better and cooler (at least for me), if the Eagles made gave the winner an opportunity to do PbP in the booth for a half or a drive or what not. I mean, not only did we apparently lose Gus Johnson, but Kevin Reilly stunk last night next to Hugh Douglas and Herm Edwards. In all seriousness, though, I would fill out the form (age cut off is 18) if it were not for the fact that I will be back up in Bloomsburg during that game and it would be way too much of a pain in the ass to go to New York for a pre-season game, drive back, sleep a few hours, and attend my Friday classes from 9:00 AM - 12:50 PM.

But if you are interested, all you have to do is click on the above link, follow the instructions on the screen and fill out the necessary information, make the video, and before you know it, you could be sideline reporting for the Eagles on September 3 at Giants Stadium!
