Daily News | The best Philly sports stories of the week
There’s nothing quite like waking up on the first day of a three-day weekend — except for maybe waking up at the start of a four-day weekend, but we’ll take what we can get. You’ve made it through the week and now have some time to slow down a bit.
This week, we’ll start with a story from Isabella DiAmore, who caught up with Eagles legend Brian Dawkins. The Pro Football Hall of Fame safety is also known by another name, Weapon X, one he shares with his comic book inspiration, Wolverine. “There’s the inner depths of the Wolverine people don’t know,” said Dawkins, 48. “You just think he’s a cartoon character, but it lets you see an individual that has a lot of flaws to it. [An] Individual that sometimes has trouble controlling his temper, his anger, and I had those issues at times, so there’s a lot of parallels between the character and myself.
