I hate that shyt, too. It's so irrational that it can ONLY be based in prejudice. I was there the night they retired his jersey, and not only were people not showing him love, they were fukkin BOOING. He was like:They still shyt on him here in Philly especially the sports radio guys and the sheep that follow them...
DonOfThem: "Number 5 will always love you!"....
Audience: (*crickets*.......*crickets*......)
CACs (and even some Black folk I know) will seemingly NEVER forgive him for choking away the Super Bowl....NEVERMIND that for YEARS PRIOR he had been a catalyst for the team's constant yearly success. All he ever did was show the city love, and in turn it just shat on him over and over, blamed him for every loss....whatever. shyt's ridiculous.
They worship Jaws in this town. same nuccas who couldnt wait to turn the keys to Kevin Kolb
Yep.
Also, Sal Pal gets mad love....he does his show alot from the Philly Diner in Runnemede, we used to kick it with him, Jon Marks and Jeremiah Trotter there.
