  • Mayor Parker playfully addresses botched Eagles chant: ‘We don’t promise perfection’


    It’s a cardinal sin among Eagles fans!

    Philadelphia Mayor Cherelle Parker is catching heat for fumbling the spelling of “Eagles” after she started the popular chant at a press conference over the weekend.

    The gaffe happened on Sunday, when Parker and city leaders gathered to discuss winter storm preparations in Philadelphia ahead of the Eagles-Rams playoff game.

    Parker began the ill-fated chant at the end of the press conference and encouraged others to join in as she spelled out “E-L-G-S-E-S! Eagles!” 

    What we know:

    Parker and other city leaders gathered outside in the bitter cold and wet conditions on Sunday to discuss how the city was preparing for an incoming winter storm.

    The first-term mayor called heading to the Eagles playoff game essential travel, and encouraged fans to use caution while heading to Lincoln Financial Field.

    “Making it to our Philadelphia Eagles game on today is essential,” Parker said.

    Before the press conference wrapped up, Parker implored those gathered around her to participate in an Eagles chant. 

    “We’ve gotta do this, let me hear you all say: E-L-G-L-E-S! Eagles!” Parker exclaimed. “Go Birds!”

    What they’re saying:

    Parker poked fun at her blunder on Tuesday during a press conference about the Kensington Wellness Court.

    “We don’t promise perfection, I’m so happy I never have,” Parker said. “Especially after I couldn’t spell Eagles right.”

    The self-deprecating moment elicited a laugh from those in attendance.

    In a recent press conference, Mayor Parker addressed the botched Eagles chant that took place during a recent event in the city. With a smile on her face, Mayor Parker playfully stated, “We don’t promise perfection, but we do promise passion and dedication from our fans.”

    The Mayor’s lighthearted response to the mistake showed her understanding and support for the passionate fans of the Eagles. She went on to praise the team for their hard work and commitment throughout the season, despite any small mishaps along the way.

    As the city continues to rally behind the Eagles, Mayor Parker’s playful attitude serves as a reminder that it’s not about being perfect, but rather about showing support and enthusiasm for our beloved team. Let’s keep cheering on the Eagles with all our hearts, flaws and all! #FlyEaglesFly

  • Watch Philly mayor’s misspelled version of Eagles chant – NBC10 Philadelphia


    We’ve all been there at some point, struggling with the spelling of E-A-G-L-E-S during an impromptu Eagles chant. It just wasn’t caught on video.

    During a wintry weather preparations news conference in the hours before the Philadelphia Eagles’ snowy playoff win over the Los Angles Rams, Mayor Cherelle Parker had her moment of messing up the chant.

    “Listen we gotta do this,” the first-term Democrat said while standing outside with city officials after deeming travel to the Jan. 19, 2025, Eagles game “essential.”

    “Let me hear you all sing,” Parker — wearing a kelly green beanie and scarf — says before leading the crowd with a chant of “E-L-G-S-E-S, Eagles!” Some people in the crowd can be heard chanting the proper spelling.

    “Let’s Go Birds!” she says before stepping away from the podium.

    The error wasn’t apparently caught in real time Sunday, but started making rounds on social media in the hours after the Eagles advanced to the NFC Championship Game.

    “We don’t promise perfection, I’m so happy that I never have, especially after I couldn’t spell Eagles right,” Parker said with a chuckle at an unrelated event in Kensington Tuesday, Jan. 21, 2025. The comment got laughs from those in the room.

    In true Philly fashion, Parker’s flub has already inspired a T-shirt. Phillygoat is selling a kelly green “E-L-G-S-E-S” shirt in several sizes.

    We will need to wait and see if Parker will get a chance at Eagles chant redemption ahead of Sunday’s showdown with the division rival from Washington.

  • “Fire Mayo” chant emerged at Gillette Stadium during blowout loss to Chargers

    “Fire Mayo” chant emerged at Gillette Stadium during blowout loss to Chargers


    During the fourth quarter of an ugly loss to the Chargers on Saturday, many of the few who remained for garbage time of a garbage game made their preferences known regarding the team’s first-year head coach.

    “Fire Mayo!” was the chant that emerged.

    You hear those things,” coach Jerod Mayo said after the game, via Mike Reiss of ESPN.com. “But at the same time, they paid to sit in the seats, and we’ve got to play better. If we play better, we don’t have to hear that stuff.”

    He’s right, but the problem is the play. And the coach is responsible for it.

    Of course, the roster has something to do with it. And the roster that Bill Belichick left for Mayo wasn’t good. In Belichick’s last two years with the Patriots, the greatest coach in football history (as UNC recruits are constantly hearing it) could muster only 12 total wins in 34 total games.

    For years, Belichick the coach had to compensate for the failures of Belichick the personnel guru. Once Tom Brady left, it all caught up to Belichick. And the stench of bad personnel decisions lingers.

    That doesn’t mean Mayo should be guaranteed a second season. At times this year, it has felt as if Mayo was trying to talk his way out of a job. Like when he called his team “soft.” And it was odd, to say the least, to learn on Saturday that Mayo said running back Rhamondre Stevenson wouldn’t start the game due to ongoing fumbling issues — before Stevenson actually started the game.

    Thriving as an NFL coach is proven in big moments. Surviving is shown in little things. Too often this year, Mayo has tripped over those little things. And it raises the question of whether ownership did the wrong thing by creating a contractual succession plan that gave Mayo the job before Bill Belichick was asked to leave it.

    Now, the question becomes what will Robert Kraft do? Firing Mayo this quickly could be interpreted as an admission that Mayo never should have been hired. And there’s a chance that Mayo simply needs more time to grow and to develop into the role.

    But only dysfunctional teams deal with mistakes by doubling down. The smart teams recognize the error of their ways, and they make changes.

    It was never going to be easy to follow Belichick. And if Mayo were to be fired after only one season in Belichick’s long shadow, the next coach will end up lurking in it, too.

    On one hand, it’s part of the price to pay for two decades of excellence. On the other hand, a simple question needs to be asked. Can Mayo ever live up to the excellence that Belichick demonstrated? If the projection is that he can’t and won’t, it makes sense to consider a change.

    Especially with former Belichick assistant Brian Flores possibly on the brink of becoming a head coach again, if there’s an owner willing to ignore his pending lawsuit against the NFL and four franchises.





    During the New England Patriots’ blowout loss to the Los Angeles Chargers at Gillette Stadium, fans took their frustration to a new level with a chant that could be heard throughout the stadium: “Fire Mayo!”

    The chant, directed at Patriots defensive coordinator Jerod Mayo, came as the team struggled to contain the Chargers’ offense and fell behind by a significant margin. Fans were clearly unhappy with the team’s performance and took the opportunity to voice their displeasure.

    While it’s unclear whether the chant will have any impact on Mayo’s future with the team, it’s clear that fans are not pleased with the current state of the Patriots defense. As the team looks to regroup and improve in the coming weeks, it remains to be seen whether the “Fire Mayo” chant will continue to be heard at Gillette Stadium.
