97.3 ESPN: The Radio Home of the Eagles - That's right, folks, this legendary Philly station is where you'll find Merrill Reese and Mike Quick calling all the action. It's like having a front-row seat (minus the overpriced nachos) right in your car, at home, or wherever you happen to be tuning in.

So, if you're a die-hard fan who migrated for greener pastures (or cheesesteaks), you might be out of luck here.
