Pennsylvania Super Bowl


SKULL

Recommended Posts

Grew up in the Philly burbs...never liked the Iggles (or Phils). Only Philly team I've ever liked has been (and still is) the Flyers. I grew up liking the Dolphins and was a Dolphin fan until they ran Shula out of town and hired the scumbag, Jimmy Johnson. I picked a new team to follow. Narrowed it down to GB and the Panthers. GB either just won the SB or was about to. Didn't want to be called a bandwagon jumper so I went with the new franchise Panthers.

What is it about this team that makes them near impossible to hate? Hell, I find myself rooting for the Flyers when they're not playing the Canes and they're on the ol' tube. Weird.

Just for additional information, I have a strong dislike for every other Philly team. :P

That is weird....most hockey fans despise the Flyers because they "ruined the game" with the Broad Street Bullies. I don't remember many wins or Stanley Cups being awarded for fighting though. :)

BTW - A couple days ago was the anniversary of the infamous Ed Van Impe check on Valeri Kharlamov that sent the Russians to their dressing room in the middle of the game. They refused to play the rest of the game until Mr. Snyder went down to their locker room and told em, no play, no pay. They came back out on the ice and lost to the Flyers (only loss that year for the Russkies vs NHL teams).
