Fire Up Those DVRs

Or "Why Andy Reid Can't Be All That Mad At Leonard Weaver."

Yesterday's version of the weekly-obvious-uncalled-personal-foul-committed-against-an-Eagles-player (hereafter WOUPFCAAEP, still working on the acronym) came in the fourth quarter after a DeSean Jackson end around that -- not coincidentally -- ended up being the weapon's last touch of the day.

At the end of the play, one of the regular commenters noticed this:

am I imagining things when I say Andy intentionally bumped that 49er defender on the sideline after the late hit on Jackson?

This morning I got an email along the same lines:

During yesterday's game, D-Jax got slung out of bounds on the Eagles sideline (second half sometime, maybe). It was a borderline late hit, with him being tackled past the white markers. As the players were getting back up and running back onto the field, the 49er who tackled D-Jax ran by Andy Reid. And, I swear to God, it looked like Andy gave him one of those "step-into-you" shoulder bumps. You know the kind, when somebody wants to start something as you're walking by, and they smash their shoulder into yours as pass? It totally looked like he did that. Stepped into it and all.

Unfortunately, I watched the game online yesterday because I still don't have my DirecTV set up here, which means I can't go back and dig up the video.  Anyone want to do a project?  I'll throw up the YouTube here if you post it.  The play happened with about eight minutes left in the final quarter.

Wonder what McD would think of that one, from a coaching standpoint ...
