Did you see what happened in Manhattan last night? The Empire State Building, located in the heart of New York City, lit up green in order to show support for the Philadelphia Eagles after they won the NFC Championship and earned a place in the Super Bowl.

Um, what?! Do people at the Empire State Building not know that New York is home to the GIANTS and JETS?! Who's ridiculous idea was this?! I'm no Philly hater...quite the opposite...but they can light up the Liberty Bell or Philadelphia Museum if they choose! What does NYC have to do with the Eagles?!

As you can imagine...the fallout online was not positive amongst New York fans!
What's next?! Lighting up the Statue Of Liberty in a blue color to honor the 76'ers?! Screw it! I say we trade the Empire State Building to Philly for two draft picks and the Ben Franklin Bridge!! I'm Davey Mac! And that's my Two Cents On Sports!

Eagles Dominate San Francisco
First, the Eagles crushed the 49’ers in the NFC Championship…31 to 7. Philly knocked 49’er rookie sensation out of the game with an elbow injury and it was all downhill for San Francisco from there. The Eagles turned the Niner offense over three times and never looked back. The 49’ers just had no answer for the Eagles defense. So Jalen Hurts and company are off to the big game!

Chiefs Beat Bengals
Then, in the AFC Championship, Patrick Mahomes led the Chiefs down the field with 41 seconds left for a last-second field goal as the Chiefs beat the Bengals…23 to 20. Mahomes threw for 326 yards, two touchdowns, and no interceptions. Meanwhile, the Kansas City defense picked off Joe Burrow twice…as the Chiefs are headed to back to the Super Bowl! Should be a great game!
