Daily News | The best Philly sports stories of the week
JOSE F. MORENO / Staff PhotographerYou’ve made it through another week, and it’s time to kick back and enjoy the much-deserved weekend. But first, you need to catch up on all the sports news you missed this week.
But for now, we’ll keep our focus in the rearview rather than looking too far into the future as we recap some of the biggest and best local sports stories from the past week, including more than a few you probably missed the first time around. ...if you are of a certain age, you remember well the last offseason that [the Eagles] signed an elite, pass-rushing defensive end and traded for a game-changing wide receiver and created great expectations for themselves. That was a hell of a one-two punch back in March 2004. The news that the Eagles had agreed to an eight-year contract with Jevon Kearse wasn’t two weeks old, had barely begun to sink in, when they completed the unusual three-team deal to acquire Terrell Owens.
