Look: We’re not even gonna act like we understand/care about/pay much attention to The Football — it’s like war and math all in one sport, yuck — but we will say this: That Asante Samuel is ONE! PRETTY! MAN! Samuel, it turns out, is something of the Jimmy Rollins of the Iggles — that is, the intrepid soul who, when he signed to the team, said he did so because he liked the chances of the team getting to the SuperBowl this year. That’s not quite saying that the Eagles are “the team to beat,” but it’s close enough that it got him ridiculed. Well, after his interception yesterday (ooh, a football word!), Samuel brought the Igz that much closer. But what is really wowing us about him is this whole DeBarge/Jermaine Stewart vibe he brings to the game. It makes us wanna dance and party all night. And drink some cherry wine.
