    Right there with you, G...

    I kind of think it's funny that fans from opposing teams are afraid to come to The Linc or Citizens Bank Park because of us Philadelphia fans...and then I think, "That's how it should be!"

    Throwing snowballs at Jesus was an act of indifference...or just drunken stupor. But you can't tell me that Philadelphia is the only place that stuff happens.

    Besides, if it weren't for Philly, we wouldn't have the classic Rocky run up the art museum steps with that amazing song playing in the background!!!

    I went to Penn State. Probably don't need to mention the heinous acts of one and the moral failings of a few that have tainted the students, alumni, and university's reputation.

    I know a lot of football teams consider the University of Michigan their rivals, but we don't consider them ours. Our rivals are (1) Ohio State and (2) Notre Dame. In general, I wouldn't even consider Michigan State a rival, although lately they've actually been better than us. I am assuming now that we got rid of the mistake RichRod, we will return to our former glory of whomping MSU with regularity.

    Me too... I'm a south jersey... philly fan..... and we're deemed 'the worst' fans. Not true. We're passionate, but no more than other fans. I've seen a *kitten* ton of crazed fans on other teams.

    University of Tennessee Volunteers fan. Big one. Most people think we are a bunch of rednecks... Okay, we might be, but we're fun! Hopefully, the team will stop stinking this year. We've had a huge mess with the coaching and recruitment in the last several years, plus the SEC has gotten very tough. Double whammy.

    GO BIG ORANGE.

    MSU has beaten us the last 6 or so years in a row I believe. That doesn't make them a rival, that makes them a better team in recent history than us. OSU had, until last year, also been on a decent winning streak against us, but that rivalry goes back a lot further than 5 years. We flat out sucked for about 4 years, that doesn't make every team that beat us a rival.

    I'll never think of Tennessee fans the same after the crying about Lane Kiffen.
    Then again Kiffen really did you wrong.

    And the jerk wouldn't even shake Beamers hand after the chik bowl. No class.
