Chip Kelly, an all knowing, all seeing, wizard of the National Football League. Making personnel changes, trades, and cuts, no one would ever see coming. Slowly amassing weapons of mass football destruction like the crazed dictator of the Philadelphia Eagles. Strengthening the defense by re-signing DeMeco Ryans, his self proclaimed Mufasa. He also showed those who questioned LeSean McCoy's release that they knew not what they were talking about by signing Demarco Murray and all but guaranteeing the NFC East title this year. In Chip we trust.
Chip Kelly, is he in over his head, or is he really a behind-the-scenes football genius? A great deal of the hype surrounding Chip comes from his days at Oregon University. He was a great coach there, using the hurry up offense, and blistering speed to out finesse his opponents. But that was in college, he has yet to prove himself in the league, and many Eagles fans are reluctant to place their trust in him. He signed the knee-less wonder, Sam Bradford, who has suffered two major knee injuries in the league, as well as letting our #1 receiver Jeremy Maclin walk, to that over sized walrus of a man Andy Reid and the Chiefs. I hope he can prove himself, but being an Eagles fan, I know he probably wont. Three things are constant: death, taxes, and disappointment for Philadelphia Eagles fans.

Distillation
The Narrator of this excerpt uses decisive language and vividly describes the detriments of the scientific process, to express his negative attitude towards intellectuals. Through his diction, and comparison of the scientific process to the destruction of nature, the Narrator airs his opinions on the pursuit of knowledge. The Narrator's excerpt depicts intellectuals as individuals with "nothing to think of with your poor empty head, and nothing to do with with your poor idle hands..." This insight into the Narrator's mind provokes the question of whether or not the Narrator's views on intellectuals come from unfamiliarity or just plain ignorance.
