Philadelphia's Democratic mayor responds to mockery for spelling Eagles wrong during speech

The Philadelphia Eagles are playing the Washington Commanders in the NFC Championship game, but Jalen Hurts suffered a knee injury in the Divisional Round. Craig Carton, Danny Parkins, and Mark Schlereth ask if the Eagles are in trouble.

Philadelphia Mayor Cherelle Parker responded to widespread mockery that was directed at her when she misspelled the name of the hometown Eagles during a speech on Sunday.

During a chant to celebrate the team's playoff run, the Democratic mayor attempted to do the fan base's signature chant of spelling out the team name. However, she spelled it "E-L-G-S-E-S."

Parker addressed this mistake during a press conference on Tuesday. 

"We don't promise perfection, I'm so happy I never have," Parker told reporters. "Especially after I couldn't spell Eagles right."
