* More Eagle Notes..
- The Eagles are 3-0 all-time in the playoffs against the Vikings.
- Who will deal with the emotional letdown of a last-second win form last weekend- the Eagles or Vikings?
- Ironic that the Eagles beat the same two teams in 2004 to reach the Super Bowl, the Vikings and Falcons.
- If the Eagles make it to the Super Bowl in two weeks, will owner Jeffrey Lurie ask permission from the NFL to allow Philly fans to watch the big game at Lincoln Financial Field?
- Will the Eagles play the song "Who Let The Dogs Out?" as the players are being introduced on Sunday night?
- Amazon completely sold-out their stock of dog masks. The few sites still selling the masks have more than quadrupled the price since Eagles Lane Johnson and Chris Long donned dog masks after the team's upset victory over Atlanta on Saturday night.
- The Eagles have given the OK for fans to wear underdog masks at the game on Sunday. Think of it- 70,000 Poodles, German Shepards and Border Collies growling at the Vikings for three hours.
- Angelo Cataldi suggested the Eagles bring back the ultimate underdog this week for the NFC Championship Game- Rocky Balboa himself, Sylvester Stallone. I think it's a great idea. although the last time Stallone was at the Linc - for the opening game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers- the Birds lost 17-0. Stallone would be a treat for the already frenzied fans to see in person. Go for it, Eagles!

* The Sixers won their annual Martin Luther King Jr. Day afternoon home game against the Toronto Raptors, 117-111. Center Joel Embiid scored a double-double, with 34 points and 11 rebounds. The 76'ers almost blew another big lead, as their 21-point lead melted to one with a few minutes left in the game. The Sixers held on to win.
