So You Think You're a Philadelphia Eagles Fan?: Stars, Stats, Records, and Memories for True Diehards

by Skip Clayton, Merrill Reese (Foreword by)

Overview

Fly Eagles Fly! Test and expand your knowledge of The Birds. Rather than merely posing questions and providing answers, you’ll get details behind each—stories that bring to life players and coaches, games and seasons.

This book is divided into four parts, with progressively more difficult questions in each new section. The Rookie section contains the most basic questions. Next come the Starter and All-Pro sections, followed by the biggest challenge: the Hall of Fame.

Also, you’ll learn more about the great Eagles players and coaches of the past and present, including Norm Van Brocklin, Steve Van Buren, Chuck Bednarik, Pete Retzlaff, Harold Carmichael, Dick Vermeil, Mike Quick, Randall Cunningham, Reggie White, Andy Reid, and Carson Wentz.. Some of the many questions that this book answers include:

• Who scored the winning touchdown in the 1960 NFL Championship Game?
• When Donovan McNabb became the starting quarterback during the 1999 season, who did he replace?
• Who threw the longest touchdown pass in Eagles history?
• Who are the only three Eagles players to lead the league in scoring?

This book makes the perfect gift for any fan of Philadelphia football!
