Should we believe everything we read in the media? Even the conservative media?

One conservative media presents dozens of Eagles players as born again Christians. It is in heavy rotation on TBN. This picture of the Eagles is creeping into the mainstream media.

The posted article is the second image of the Eagles, apparently written by a Boston Patriot or maybe a Steelers Eagles hater.

Is it possible the Eagles are a split team? Half of the Devil? Half of their Lord Jesus Christ?

Or is the media seeking to create shock-jock reasons to write an article?

The story is about the putrid song chosen by the team. Obviously at least the majority of the players and the owners went along with it.

That there may be a few players that objected to it only shows that they didn’t really matter, and I bet they stayed fairly quiet.

Agreed. That's why I posted an independent article in the comment. It largely says the same thing.

From the article I excerpted in the OP comment:
The Eagles decided they were going to play "Dreams and Nightmares" before every kickoff in that game, McLeod said. In pregame warmups, the track played over the public address system at Lincoln Financial Field, and it elicited a strong reaction from players and fans alike.

Please note that there was no objection mentioned. BTW, the article I excerpted is from the Harrisburg Patriot-News, not the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, so there isn't likely any Steelers issues going on.

By the way, if you would like to look at the lyrics to this "song", you can find them here.

Please note: if you have underage children or grandchildren, I would probably not let them look over your shoulder when you're looking at those lyrics, as they are fairly explicit.
