i used love going to Long Beach State Park and its neighbor Seaside Heights for Boardwalk. Today there is NO SeaSide Heights and Long Island Beach with catastrophic damage. In March 1962 the worst storm ever to hit New Jersey before Sandy was a NorEaster--the entire Atlantic City Boardwlk was annihilated, Ocean City NJ lost its boardwalk and its entire beach(it took years and many many millions of dollars to dredge and pump in new sand--it took the New Jersey Shore many years to recover, and now this--the entire state flooded, Seaside Heights and Bayhead/Matoloking(The private playground of The Old Money of the U.S.A, with naught but multidollar homes) are gone--every home in Seaside Heights now be structurally unhabitable. But LUCY! (where i worked as a Beach Boy(in Margate,N.J.) survived 1962 and Sandy! She is now One Hundred and 30 years old(now a national historic site. O yes, the apartment building where me and buddies lived that was about 100 yards from Lucy, in 1962, it literally vanished--it was a just sand in 1962. And now this--this picture has become iconic to get message across what happened to New Jersey. O yes Hampton Beach(with Neat Boardwalk!), N.H(yes, New Hampshire!)., where my parents would spend one night twice a year on trips to Maine, has been annihilated. This Photo says it all: The Famous Roller Coaster at SeaSide Heights--and that is now 100 feet out to sea from where it once was---last picture stands for over a million people that had the unthinkable happen--captures how it felt. The man in photo at his back is what is left of his home. Photo taken in brick,N.J. Another picture SeaSide Heights

i am making my official pick for NFC Championship Game, given condition Giants and Bears don't play earlier in the playoffs, i a picking NFC-Championship Game to be Bears against Giants. i pick Giants to win and return to Super Bowl. also one the greatest disappointment of Eagles fan don years was the inexplicable inferior play of the defense. i see rest of season as bad as teams realizes Reid and company are finished--teams do very poorly when being coached by a lame-duck coaching staff.

Posted this to Dale, Mike(have quit watching the game) Maybe Eagles will outbid for Peyton? i guarantee Lurie tonight has decided The Reid 12 years term is over done finished. He as lost the team. When a a caching staff loses a team it becomes in ugly unravel--like with Phillips and Dallas two years ago. Injuries to OL no excuse as he dumped a center/guard and a right tackle that are now starters for Colts and replaced them with non-NFL Offensive llinemen( meaning they are Over Their head/Overmatched--in other words horrendous evaluation by Reid--those players are now starters because Reid has nothing else and the OL of Eagles the worst OL in the NFL. Now he has got to replace Vick with Foles, and Foles will be 6'7" rookie with NO PROTECTION. The defense fell into a catastrophe under Castillo's lead---any old footballers know if a team becomes unhappy with the coaching staff, they bring that to field--why? Because you have to have the fire inside alive, players can NOT fake the fire has dimmed. Dallas will embarrass Eagles next week. i don't fear for Eagles having a strong reound next year EXCEPT for can Foles recover from having to play behind a pathetic OL---well Aikman did his rookie year as Dallas Cowboy line Aikman's first year possibly as bad as Eagles OL now(Eagles sacked Aikman 12 times!!!! in one game his first year) The new coaching staff for Eagles have got to be first rate---i favor there signing Bill O'Brien from PennState--he has done an incredible job there(6-3, for a team that had 7 of their best leave the team). Bill O'Brien was Belichek's offensive co-ordinator and i see as perfect fit for Eagles. i would favor O'brien over Peyton. for Eagles. Max p.s. Dale, if Cowboys can't beat Eagles next week, Cowboy season is over as the Eagles are a BROKEN TEAM.
