 Story and Art by: Gail Nobles

The Super Bowl has come and gone, and here we are, left with the aftermath. The Philadelphia Eagles are the champions. It’s like every Eagles fan has suddenly become a sneaker designer overnight. Custom-made sneakers with big eagle logos are all the rage now. Have you seen them? They’re everywhere!

I can’t help but marvel at the creativity of these fans. There’s something about a sneaker that screams “I’m part of the team!” It’s like walking around in your very own walking billboard. But, let’s be honest, when did footwear become the ultimate expression of team spirit?

You’ve got your Nikes, your Jordans, and yet here they are, sporting a big eagle right on the side. Is it a Nike or an Air Jordan? Who cares? You could be wearing an old pair of sneakers you found at the back of your closet, but if you slap an eagle logo on it, suddenly it becomes a status symbol. Maybe even a collector's item!

Do the Eagles need their own shoe? I mean, if you wear a pair of sneakers celebrating the team, does that make you feel closer to the players? Are you somehow more of an Eagles fan if you’re sporting the latest eagle footwear? Or is it just another excuse for companies to sell you something you didn’t realize you needed?

But then again, that’s America for you. You win a championship and suddenly everybody’s got a piece of it. I just hope between the hoopla and the sales, we don’t forget the game itself. After all, the glory of the win shouldn’t just be about what you wear on your feet; it should be about the memories made on the field. But for now, let them have their eagle sneakers. At least it gives them a reason to strut around town, and we need more of that kind of enthusiasm!
