10/12/2008: Update
Like clockwork - the anti-Eagles reader submits more pictures that you’d only see in Philly - and says “Starbucks would never stoop so low”…
C’mon - I’m a little miffed about that, as I prefer Dunkin’ Donuts over Starbucks any day.
See previous burns after the jump…
10/5/2008 Update:
Just in time for football Sunday, the “Eagles Fan hater in Philly” returns with another burn for the city of brotherly love.
Economy not bad in Philadelphia.. at least not at Costco
They say Dawkins’ nickname is “weapon X”, here is “weapon XXXL.”
9/30/2008 Update:
(Just returned from that parallel dimension)
Well that Philly resident keeps sending in pictures to Hoboken411 in order to keep this trash-talk thread going… this time without a message - just the title of the email “FW: Losers!”
Rest of the trash-talk after the jump. I’m still waiting for someone send me an email about a team they despise…
9/22/2008 Update:
I know we have a horde of Eagles fans in Hoboken - but get this: an anti-Philly fan - who actually lives in Philadelphia sent this picture to Hoboken411 along with a brief note about TastyKake Butterscotch Krimpets:
“Do Eagles fans really need to be any fatter?”
PS, if anyone wants to talk trash about any other team - just send it in, and I’ll post!
9/19/2008:
Sports rivalries can stir up emotions more than practically anything else (around here at least). Couple that with pride and alcohol, and the result can often end up being a senseless fight. Boston & New York, Philly & New York, Mets & Yankees all have crazy history behind them.
Personally, I find it a bit ridiculous, as most folks have never even played on those teams. It’s like punching each other over your favorite color.
I don’t want to start any fights, but one Hoboken411 reader, who’s a lifelong NY Giants fan INSISTED that I publish this list about “annoying Philadelphia Eagle fans,” from www.amiannoying.com. He also invited Philly fans to “show him what they got” and “dare to even try and talk smack about the Super Bowl champs!”
Meh.
Why Eagles fans are annoying
- They booed Santa Claus at a game.
- They cheered while Dallas WR Michael Irvin was lying motionless on the field with what turned out to be a career ending injury.
- Since many fans are rowdy at games, Veterans Stadium built a holding cell and courtroom beneath the stadium to deal with arrested fans immediately.
- Fans often shout insults at the opposing team’s bus as it arrives at the stadium.
- They booed the draft selection of QB Donovan McNabb. They now think he is one of the best QB’s in the league.
- They have a fight song called ‘Fly Eagles Fly.’
- When Washington Redskin unofficial mascot Chief Zee attended an Eagle home game at the Vet, the fans did not appreciate his taunting. They beat him badly enough that he suffered broken legs and they stripped him to his underwear (1983).
- In an effort to apologize, the Eagles invited him back the following year when he was accosted by an elderly female fan who threw a drink in his face and said “You’ve got a lot of nerve coming up here! We mugged the guy who dressed like that last year! (1984).”

ROFL. . .the last time we met (3 weeks ago?) Eagles beat them handily.
Ron- Sad but true.
Today was a great day to be sure, but I fear they’re just setting us up for a serious disappointment next week.

When you’re 11-1, as the Giants were when they played Philly, a letdown can be expected. I would hesitate to extrapolate that result onto a January playoff game!

if a 6 point win is the eagles beating a team “handily”, then I don’t think Giants fans have much to worry about if the Giants meet the Eagles again.

This is typical for Giants fans.
You are delusional.
You lost 3 of the last 4. You can poo-pooh all you want, but you are losing players to injuries (hence the “limping” comment).
Sam Madison broke his ankle. Free safety Michael Johnson left the game with a thigh bruise. Aaron Ross, another cornerback, missed the game with a concussion, as did Kevin Boss, the first-string tight end. Defensive tackle Barry Cofield was out with a knee injury. Oh…and still no Plaxico for the playoffs.
Part two of my delusional analysis of Giants fans is how they play revisionist history with the Eagles domination only a few weeks ago:

If you are seriously going to sit there and say “Oh durrr we only lost by 6 points” then it shows you are a fair weather fan who probably even didn’t watch the game. You were routed that game and we have up a late meaningless TD on our prevent defense with about a minute left in the game.

Madison played about 10 snaps all year
Not too worried about a thigh bruise
Boss and Coefield could have played if the game meant something
We already lost our two of our best players in Strahan and Osi so what is another in Plax?
If I were an Eagles fan, I would worry about Minnesota while the Giants can rest up on their bye week.

Eagles are playing with house money right now.
Honestly, no one expected to be in this position today. Especially after this season’s highs and lows. Any Eagles fan is probably just thankful to have this chance to BE in the playoffs and to destroy Dallas was just whipped cream on top.
No one in the NFC is a dominant, scary team. No one. This is a wide open playoff, and there’s no reason why ANY TEAM from the NFC won’t have the chance to represent this year. That’s why i’m even more excited.

That Dallas smackdown was pretty sweet….I actually started to feel bad for Romo towards the end.
Yeah…its a pretty wide open tourney at this point.

But I enjoyed every moment of Pacman’s terrible game….and watching Skelator suffer up in the owner’s booth never gets old.

On a side note, how about the Atlanta Falcons . . . as a BC grad I am loving Matt Ryan’s play and the way he restored dignity and class to the organization after the Vick debacle. They are another team to be reckoned with . . .

I imagine it was almost as sweet as it was watching the Eagles D score 3 TDs and play almost the entire 3rd quarter as a result!
