I posted an article yesterday. I hope it puts a seed of doubt in people's heads before they bother opposing fans.
Fuck that shit. If you team is going to the playoffs it should be easy to sell out.
Even if it is cold as shit. There is nothing that compares to going to a live game and seeing your team win in the postseason or pull off something special.
I wouldn't want to go to a regular season game in Pittsburgh in December unless it had some significance but I would gladly pay a few hundred dollars and put on my long johns to see them punk out Flacco or Tammy in the playoffs.
Man, some of the factoids from "the Ice Bowl" are insane, look at this shit.

Ravens and Giants updates:
---------------------
I've been calling for Quinn's head for years. ST has always been average at best for us outside of Weatherford being a beast during the SB run. It's a much needed change.

Sounds like he's heading home for the offseason.

Another reason why playoff games weren't selling out, you have to fear for your life at some of these games.
That is the shittiest attempt at selective quoting that I have seen in a long ass time.
You must a close relative to Gata.
Also, fuck the Yankees. Fuck baseball. And as always, fuck the Patriots and lets all pray for their downfall.
P.S. Lakers are worse at basketball than Gata is at Algebra so that is not the best example to use if you are going to accuse me of bandwagoning.

But the Eagles game sold out almost immediately...
Those days are over.
Tickets are too expensive now. It is mostly yuppies at Eagles games. Even in the upper sections I never saw anything that compared to what went on at the Vet.
oh that's right you're a heat "fan" now. at least gata sticks with his wagons and doesnt jump every 5 years
lol, awesome read.

Yes, the Lakers have never been very good. Second place to the greatest franchise in basketball history, the Boston Celtics.

Clearly the philly police department bought a bunch of tickets.

I agree, Philadelphia does need to stop being a place.
Hopefully Iran will nuke there first.
of course the loser with no rings picks another loser as his fav
Awesome news! Still biggest worry on D. Our safeties covering the Saints TE and RBs.
I feel more comfortable with Wolff back in the line up. Also allows them to use Chung as an extra LB around the line of scrimmage instead of being a huge liability in coverage.
Sproles and Graham scare the shit out of me.
Saints fan(s) how is your rookie LT playing? Should Trent Cole feast on him?
Such an embarrassment. If only Philly fans would learn from other fan bases and behave!
Is this what passes as an insult now?
This shit is so dumb I am almost convinced that this is a Gata alt...
When I started watching the Lakers in the 80s I didn't know shit about their history. I just knew that Magic Johnson was an advanced human being and I wanted to emulate him in every way possible (as any intelligent person from that time period would think). And its not like they have always been dominant.
Even the Celtics, whom I hate, have sucked more often than not since Bird left. If you remembered that you were a Celtics fan in 2008 then go fuck yourself. But if you stuck around and got to see Pierces amazing 105 FT attempts against the Pacers and the other 2 good moments before 2008 then you are a real fan. Likewise I was still a fan when Cedric Ceballos (objectively the best player of the 90s) was trying to dominate, only to be held back by a crooked league.
You people will never let Larry live that down.
Road woes aside, I expect the Saints to beat the Eagles. We're not talking a tough physical defense that can beat the Saints up at the line of scrimmage like all their prior losses. It's basically going to be a battle of two soft teams and I think Saints have the advantage on both sides of the ball. All they really have to do is stop McCoy from beating them by himself (which is definitely a possibility).
Back in the good ole days when tickets were cheap Philly fans used to go to games to harass their own team and Andy Reid.
I had an encounter, probably about 2006 or 07, at Green Bay vs. the Eagles where some drunk Philly fans wouldn't shut up about Reid liking to punt on third down. Must have heard the same joke 50 times. They also were inappropriately massaging two of my freinds sitting in front of them. Not sure why my friends put up with it for pretty much all the 4th quarter and I still give them shit to this day about it.

Airman saw Packers practice, said Rodgers was throwing darts outside in -8 degree weather like it ain't no thing.
AGod.

Aren't these the kind of things just about every team TRIES to achieve though? Not making any judgement on the seahawks here, they're damn good, but those are just sports cliches at this point
The Boers and Bernstein show on 670TheScore is the best. I swear they look to get the stupid on air. Some dude called in and started complaining about the Cutler contract because the Sehawks are only paying Wilson 500K a season. He couldn't grasp the concept Russell is on his rookie contract nor did he care. The call was so good.
So you're saying you wanted HIV?
I suppose from him being so advanced, he beat it from becoming full blown AIDS.

I'm really worried the weather is going to lead to some kind of crazy turnover fest that might help the packers win.
old quote lol
But to be fair, russell and pete carroll's answers to questions are pretty much always cliches. "Our players have made tremendous plays" "We need to protect the football" "the separation is in the preparation"
They never really say anything groundbreaking, but then again i see no reason for them to

So rumors have it that Philbin doesn't want to fire Sherman, so there is talk of promoting him to assistant head coach and getting a new OC....SMH why can't Ross just grow a pair and clean house. Fucken worthless owner.
Or even worse a crazy turnover fest that might help the niners win!

Yea That's all I was trying to say is that its just coachspeak at this point. Tons of other coaches say the same things

come on now, you of all people should know how things can change
Oh I know how terrible the NFC West has been. How many years in a row is it now that the NFCE has struggled to find a division winner? Its usually the 8-7 cowboys vs 8-7 giants or something in week 17.

Any of you festering wounds known as Niners fans want to avatar bet with any of my Packlings?
After Sunday, you'll think all of 49ers GAF is me.

Good. No idea why they pride themselves in being morons. Hope a bunch of them get arrested and their faces get plastered all over the local news.

I have never met a single Eagles fan that prided themselves on violence toward other teams fans since I have lived in this city or state. Sadly it's a combination of drunkenness and a thug mentality on the behalf of a few bad seeds.
some men just want to watch the world eddie lacy.

49ers just getting to green bay tonight. Gonna be a nice shock waking up Sunday. Meanwhile the Packers are chilling in the cold with Rodgers throwing rocket balls like its a sunny day in Cali
Can't wait. 49ers have no shot!

You may have never met one but it is obviously a huge problem in Philly. Other teams have drunk fans that don't throw things or try and physically harass fans for visiting teams. If it weren't a problem then cops wouldn't be dressing up as opposing fans to catch them.

The undercover cop thing has been happening for awhile at most stadiums in the NFL

Undercover cops yes, but cops specifically dressed as fans of opposing teams to catch harassment?
