What did we ever do before social media and all of this technology? No, seriously... How spoiled are we? You don't know what we are discussing if you grew up in this era. If your TV had 'rabbit ears' and you watched black-and-white presentations of Philadelphia Eagles games, give us a Stone Cold Steve Austin-esque 'Hell Yeah'.
We've gone from rotary-dial phones and Polaroid cameras to cell phones with cameras. Download the right apps and you're ready to shoot a short feature film... Or, you can just watch full length streams of every Eagles home game and watch HBO's Hard Knocks brand on the MAX app when new episodes are released on Tuesdays.

Here's an elite angle of Jalen Hurts and Russell Wilson's postgame chat.
We've come a long way from watching HBO's cameras follow the defending Super Bowl Champion Baltimore Ravens through training camp. These days, Hard Knocks follows teams during the preseason, stretch run, and offseason.
Credit HBO for improving their product. Things had gotten stale for a while and predictable. We knew the seventh-round draft choice that was getting too much camera time was destined to be released.
This time around, they're following the four teams of a division. In Season with the AFC North has been very entertaining. The most recent airing highlighted the recent Eagles-Pittsburgh Steelers game.
Jalen Hurts and Russell Wilson met postgame for their handshake, and unlike the FOX broadcast, we were allowed to peek in on the conversation.

We told you! We love social media and all of the behind-the-scenes access. That's a tremendous show of respect by Jalen to someone whose game he admired.
Perhaps HBO can follow the NFC East around next season? Maybe it's too early, but we'd love to cast our votes for that if possible.
