It has been a while for the Philly nation.   

Nothing against the good folks of Philly, but there's just something about their sports teams that makes me _ _ _ _ _ _ well , I guess I'll leave it unsaid.

Philly is a great sports town, just often misunderstood or misrepresented in the press.

It's fans are pretty knowledable and demand performance from it top players. They are homers, but they also criticize their own teams, outsiders are not allowed to though!

They are not fair weather fans either (maybe not like the cubs or bears fans, we are not that dopey) but they will stick with their teams. unlike those southern CA teams which has competition from the

outdoor latte stands

Attendance is great and home field advantage means something in Philly.

I miss the Vet for it's intimidation factor, but the new stadiums are great.

The fans can overlook indiscretions if you bring the goods, but you if you are high maintenance and do not bring the goods, you are in trouble (no mercy)


Philly is a large City with a small town attitude, being sandwiched in between NY and Washington we just (as Rodney Dangerfield use to say) do not get any respect.

We do drink the Cool Aid at times and feel we are getting dissed from the National Sports Press. We either do not get any attention or we get negative attention at times.

So why are we disliked when our teams hit the national spotlight, because we root excessively for our teams?  We are portrayed as thugs that pelted Santa with snowballs?

We booed a Hall of Fame third baseman? We are unfriendly to opposing team fans for wearing their colors in our house, and we jaw with them?

I do not know what the answer is except maybe we do have a chip on our shoulder.........

The new improvement from the Vet, bigger and more holding cells  ;)
I was at an Iggles game there years ago and saw batteries getting thrown, I can't remember if it was at thier own guys or the other team.

Love the City but after Dr.J, I haven't been a fan of any Philly teams.



Go Rays, in 6

Howie,  

As a Philly fan there is always a constant dilemma,  how much energy do you put into rooting for your team vs how much energy do you put towards rooting against a NY team.

This is always easier when we are out of the stakes, so hating the Giants, Mets and Yankees is real easy.

I do admit rooting for the Jets it makes the Giants fans Crazy and us Philly fans can relate to being branded as out of control fans like the Jets fans (and they wear green)

As long as the Red Sox are out, it doesn't matter to me who wins (sorry Neal).  I'm with Big B on this one...

To all you CVO'ers in the Tampa Bay area congratulations and enjoy the world series.  I will never forget when Phoenix went to the Series in 2001 and beat the big bad Yankees in 7 games.  The most exciting thing I ever witnessed.  I hope you enjoy every minute of it.

My love hate with the Bosox has been tempered by the Florida Marlins...Something about winning a world series with the team payroll of one Manny Ramierez, gotta luvem..


Well there is always next year...
