Video: Lurie's botched high-five

Everyone's talking about it so I thought I'd include the YouTube clip.

In case you missed it, we're talking about Eagles owner Jeffrey Lurie missing badly with a high-five attempt and connecting with his wife's face. Pretty funny moment that the Fox cameras caught after Donovan McNabb found tight end Brent Celek for a 1-yard touchdown with 13 seconds left in the first half against the Cowboys.

Feel free to chime in with your favorite part. I like the fact that there doesn't appear to be a "My bad" or "Oops, sorry." Lurie  accidentally hits her in the face and then goes on celebrating.

And one quick plug also. Be sure to check out our new Eagles wallpaper page. You can download wallpaper of Donovan McNabb, Brian Dawkins, Brian Westbrook, DeSean Jackson, Stewart Bradley and Trent Cole, all designed by philly.com's Chris Corter. There is no wallpaper of the missed high five yet, but that could be coming.

    My God, is that hilarious. Take a look at their expressions right affterwards. He looks little subdued, like he realized what he did. She doesn't look happy. I can tell as a husband trust me. Jeffrey run to Jeweler's Row ASAP, brother.

    I watched the game with some friends, and of course, many wife-beating jokes were made after this. If you look back at a Dallas game from earlier in the season, there is a shot of 2 Cowgirl fans missing high-fives badly and the shows like Around the Horn and PTI mocked them mercilessly. Thankfully those shows aren't airing this week.
