I found the Eagles website three days ago to check on the NFL draft-I was very happy with the Eagles new players. Eagles so-called "fans" are more negative toward their own team than they are to the opponents. Nothing is right, the fans know better than anyone else,players, coaches, management, etc. The new players were all bad choices, the old players are all bad players. Need a new coach, QB, O-line, D-line, Special Teams, whatever. I stopped visiting that forum after less than 2 days. I live less than 35 miles from Philly, have not been to s sporting event there in more than 30 years, and have no plans to ever go again. Worst fans in the world, and proud of it. Stay home, watch it on TV. mark Philly fans are the dumbest people on earth.

Having gone to various sporting events in Philadelphia to root for the visiting team (twice this year with the Celtics, twice two years ago with the Red Sox), I can't say that I've had beer poured on me or had been cussed at. Yeah, I'll get the occasional taunt from some jackass behind me, most of which involves a bad imitation of a Boston accent, but nothing too bad. That being said, this kind of behavior happens everywhere, including the letter author's Montreal. In their most recent series against the Bruins, the Le Habitants' fans booed the US national anthem, threw food at fans of the opposing team, and then started fires after a victory in game 7. I'd rather people go to these events to have fun, and for the most part, people do. The knuckledragging idiots out there take things too seriously and end up embarassing everyone else. That being said, I'll take that kind of fan behavior over European Soccer hooligans any day of the week. I’m lucky.

It is amusing to watch them work so hard to win just so they can become the sacrificial lambs to the Western Conference Champions during the Stanley Cup Final round. I almost feel sorry for their fans. The Eastern Conference Playoffs.
