Ed Rendell dons bag over head during post-game show after Eagles loss
By Paulo Acoba
Ed Rendell, embarrassed with the Philidelphia Eagles latest loss, wore a bag over his head during the post-game show.
Former Pennsylvania Governor Ed Rendell serves as one of four presenters on the Comcast SportsNet’s Postgame Live crew whose job is to represent the voice of the fans, a job he apparently takes very seriously. During his latest broadcast after the Eagles took a disappointing 45-17 loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Ed Rendell took a seat at the table with one trashy looking and tattered plastic bag over his head.
Take a look at the video below courtesy of Comcast SportsNet below.
"“Michael, 17 years ago I got a call saying we want you to come on representing the voice of the fans. Well, this is the voice of the fans after this game. We are fed up, we are disgusted, we’ve had it, we won’t’ change…we are pissed off.”"
The Philidelphia Eagles loss on Saturday puts them down 4-6 in the season after losing by 28 points (45-17) against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The first half of the game saw the Eagles put together an 86-yard drive over seven plays that saw Josh Huff catch and run a touchdown into the end zone. Shortly after, the Buccaneers scored 21 points of their own which the Eagles had no answer for.
The second half wasn’t much better with the Buccaneers taking their sweet time eating up most of the third quarter before the Eagles could take the offensive. Overall it looked like the Eagles defense couldn’t muster up enough of its early season magic, which was seriously lacking against the Buccaneers.
Fans and analysts for the Eagles are upset and we can’t entirely blame them. The Eagles face off against the Lions Thanksgiving day.
