Philadelphia's Got A Championship! The Soul are the 2008 Arena Footbal Champions!

Philly's got a championship team.  That's right, hopefully there will be a ticker tape parade down Broad Street sometime this week.  Why?  Well Jon Bon Jovi and Ron Jaworski owned Philadlephia Soul have defeated the San Jose SaberCats in the Arena Bowl today, 59 - 56.

Now if that doesn't amp up the boys in silver and green, to do the same in the NFL, by bringing home the SuperBowl trophy, I don't know what else will.

It was a little bit of a nail biter at the end.  At the beginning of the 3rd quarter of the Arena Bowl, the Philadelphia Soul were up by 19, but the San Jose SaberCats ate away at that lead until the very end when the onside kick was recovered by Rod Davis.  That secured the championship win for the Philly Soul.

I wrote a little bit about it on PhillySoulChick.com, including what Ron Jaworski and Jon Bon Jovi did to create such a great team, so check it out.  Now if only Jeffrey Lurie could emulate that for our Eagles.
