Say Goodbye to the Philadelphia Eagles with Boyz II Men

An Eagles fan made a video to say goodbye to the players jettisoned by the Philadelphia Eagles this offseason and set it to Boyz II Men's "It's So Hard to Say Goodbye to Yesterday." Truer words.

You know what? Not even gonna make fun of this. Sports suck sometimes—you get so wrapped up and attached to a team or individual players and then the business side comes along and ruins everything. It's a natural response to mourn a loss, and Eagles fans lost LeSean McCoy, Trent Cole, Jeremy Maclin, and Nick Foles all within a few days.

That's a lot to process in a week, so how could you blame a fan for getting weepy listening to Boyz II Men and remembering the good old days? Like when Nick Foles threw a pass that one time. Life's a snowball rolling down a mountain and you're just along for the ride; it's OK to feel something when your part of the snowball smashes you into the ground.
