"I think the 'Dream Team' -- that word is dead now....We're one of the teams that has to scratch and kick from the bottom now and try to figure out how we're going to get ourselves back to a position where we can compete with the best teams in this league."
-Mike Vick, Philadelphia Eagles quarterback
Well that was quick! Backing off the Dream Team label just four games in? I mean yea, the team is 1-3 and they just blew the Niners at home and swallowed a huge mouthful of defeat, but still. When you open the year billing yourselves as the greatest team to ever step on the field, you have to hold on to that swagger like Gollum held onto the Ring, or like Al Davis grips control of the Raiders.
So don't back down, Mike. Tell everyone you're losing on purpose to give the rest of the league hope and that the team is going 12-0 from here on out. Basically the Eagles are pulling a junk-punch on the rest of league.
