Football is the same story. Few good seasons, but over the stretch, overall middle of the road team.



Not a Hockey fan, not by a million miles. Hockey is a sport full of ex-figure skaters with poor attitudes.
Only Rangers I hate right now come from Texas.

I root for the local teams in other sports I dont care much about. Nets and Devils. I also root for other local teams in the NY area and like to see local teams win.

How are the Eagles over the past 10 yrs a middle of the road team? They made it to 5 NFC championship games and 1 Super bowl.. They made it to the playoffs 2 or 3 other times and got knocked out before the NFC championship game. So for 5 of the last 10 years they were a Top 4 team or better.. That doesnt sound like a middle of the road type of team to me..

As far as the Phillies go. I am 29 yrs old and went to about 20-25 games a year at the Vet for the Phillies in the 90's! I have stood by the Phillies for all those years. To me the biggest sports team in the area is and has always been the Phillies.

As far as hockey goes. I would love to see you say that to a NHL player.
