Philly Sucks
« Previous EntriesNationals Fans > Phillies Fans
Tuesday, February 7th, 2012The headline is a bit overblown, I’ll admit, but the blowback from the Nats’ “Take Back the Park” campaign is annoying. So, a few points for those who attempt to ridicule the Nats for having worse fans than the Phillies:
1. The Phillies have had 120-plus years to build their shitty little fanbase.
2. The Phillies have [...]

Redskins-Eagles Open Thread

Beer: No matter the outcome of this game, I will be having an Ayinger Celebrator to close the season. [...]
DMV: These Awesome Jaromir Jagr Posters Didn’t Help Much
Wednesday, December 14th, 2011RMNB did a really nice job on these Jaromir Jagr signs for the mullet-headed one’s return to D.C. [Russian Machine Never Breaks]

This Eagles Fan Is A Little Upset
Monday, October 3rd, 2011Before pressing play, turn your volume DOWN and put your headphones ON:
A lot of us are a little touchy about almost blowing it at St. Louis, but at least we’re not Eagles fans, though it would be cool to go by “eatdatpussy445.”
Spitting Image: Colt Brennan and ESPN’s White Mike Vick
Thursday, August 25th, 2011ESPN the Magazine’s “What If Michael Vick Were White” piece is getting a lot of (negative) attention today, but I don’t know what the big deal is; they just photoshopped Colt Brennan in an Eagles jersey.
DMV: Ian Desmond’s Very Big Weekend
Monday, August 22nd, 2011Ian Desmond has had a crappy year, but the Nats beat Philly and took the series thanks in part to his ninth inning, two-out, two-strike, game-tying homer. The day after Ian Desmond Bobblehead Day, no less!* [WaPo, NE]
Correction: Desmond Bobblehead Day was actually Saturday (see below). This post has been updated to reflect the error.
