Ignorant.
Ray Lewis grew up in Florida, went to the University of Miami, and has spent his entire NFL career in Baltimore. All three of those places are rather shitty and looked down upon by most of civilized non-murdering society. Regarding Baltimore and "the U" nothing more needs to be said, and I'm sure you have seen the animated gif of Bugs Bunny sawing off Florida a few thousand times.
Baltimore remains the only city I have found, where instead of an actual police presence, they just have flashing blue lights for lamp posts.
People blaming this on hockey or Philly are idiots. Doesnt anybody remember the Giants fan getting nearly killed at a Dodgers game 8 months ago?
Course these same idiots dont give a shit about the victims anyway, this is is just another stop on the 24 hour news cycle for them to bitch and moan about.
Back to the hockey thread before I catch a ban. I hear its contagious round these parts.

I'm so angry at those people for being so wrong. Let's riot.
It's difficult to tell, but it appeared there were a lot of punches being thrown.
Yes, they were idiots.
Not really. Just because the person who is a person is a member of a stereotyped group does not mean that they are a supreme being that can rule on whether generalizations are accurate or not.

OK fuck it. I was going to stay away but the gigantic mass of fucking stupid in here has reached a critical mass in less than a page. Let me start with a clear, simple message for all the jackasses posting in here without any fucking clue what they're talking about.
This is an isolated incident that could happen anywhere. It has nothing to do with Philadelphia or with hockey. Anyone that thinks otherwise is completely ignorant to professional sports fandom throughout the world. Period.
Now on to the more specific complaints. First, Philly is not any more violent than the rest of the country, at least not in any way suggested here. I'm a Flyers fan who grew up outside of NYC. The most violent displays of fanaticism have come hands down from Giants Stadium. I was at the Giants/Chargers game where people started throwing ice balls as a kid. That was fucking insane, and worse than anything I've ever seen in Philly. Second, I've seen more fist fights between Rangers and Devils fans than any other combination in sports. I've seen more beer thrown in the Devils stadium than in Philly. I've seen plenty of fights at college sports, including in Florida, NJ, and Pennsylvania. The difference is in the level of reporting. When it happens in Philly it's news because we have a reputation for it. This shit happens everywhere. It just only gets reported in the local papers. This particular incident got even bigger because the game was on a national stage.
Second, this has something to do with hockey fans? No. Hockey allows fighting in the sport. People don't seem to get that it can be a legitimate part of the sport without also ascribing some sort of stupid mindset to the fans, despite the fact that fans of EVERY sport fight. I've seen PLENTY of fights at football games. Fighting in hockey serves a whole bunch of purposes, but to be honest they're all pretty damn irrelevant here since we're talking about fans. I think the funniest claim in here was something about "hockey culture." Fuck that! Look at international soccer. Fucking refs have died over games! So before you go insulting my sport go look around.
This entire thread went full retard in about two posts. That's impressive.

You are awesome. Alot of dumb ignorant posts in here till now. Anyway, we all know Canuck fans are the worst..
That was vomit. I believe he was also a cop. I wonder why incidents with the Police are always the ones that get reported? I guess it's a better story when the more valuable members of society are assaulted.
my new favorite post
I honestly haven't seen anything more than mild heckling at the dozens of Flyers and Phillies games I've been to, people really do just want to have a good time.
ed: Yeah, I agree with BWG's post.
Shut up, Bryz. Nobody likes you.

I live outside Philly. Philly is scum. Not all, but certainly more than any other city. Except Oakland.
There are somethings that you just can't defend. Philly sports fans are one of them.

Just be happy man
I believe he was talking about sports violence, not the murder rate of the city. I'm not sure what numbers backed up his other claim though.

Well I can't argue with that. I'm not even being sarcastic. The man sees the big picture.
Ive been catching more games solely for this man
I don't know man, Raider fans...
The Winter Classic must have been a major disappointment for you and Bryz both. Spaceman ordered special pads and everything.
All dressed up and no place to go.
He wore them tonight against the BlackHawks. He almost lost the game too. Just so you know.
