Beat The Clock

Captain Awesome - a blogger posted some place in Afghanistan or Pennsylvania - writes by e-mail:

"Watched Andy's wonderful clock management skills on Saturday and Jack Bauer's improbable time traveling on Sunday, it got me thinking about what would happen if they switched places."

Without further ado ...

If the Eagles coach were a character on 24.

An excerpt from the On Base at Fort Awesome blog:

AGENT JOHNSON: I think I found something -- the timer is solar powered. If we move this out of the shade, we can buy more time. Let's get it over on the sideline.

ANDY: Nah, we better keep it in the middle of the field.

AGENT JOHNSON: Are you insane? Why wouldn't we use the sideline to our advantage?

ANDY: Nah, stick with the middle. There's more room to work with in the middle of the field.

I can't believe you just wrote about this!

I am the Andy Reid impersonator from the Forman Mills commercials, at the games, on all the news programs.  I work with a Philly sports website where we parody Andy Reid press conferences (Www.phillypurge.com) and this is an idea we have been talking about doing (Andy Reid on 24.....with players and coaches yelling at him, "Damn it, Andy!  There's not enough time"....Reid responding, "We're not gonna' get into that right now".

We should talk about this idea and turn it into a short 2-minute skit about late in the Super Bowl!
