Where did the Eagles get their name?
I have been a fan for 25 or so years, but honestly had no idea until reading this.
The Eagles were named after the mascot used by the NRA. No, not that NRA. I’m talking about the National Recovery Administration.
Check out the linked story to find out what that NRA was and to see the logo that inspired Bert Bell to name the Philly football team the Eagles.
I’ve always thought Dave closing everything out with have a great Eagles day was so FDR.
