Philadelphia area Sixers

Why Care?
Did you ever wonder why it is that you always are a Philly sixers fan?  The following are ten rationales created by the most popular Philly Sports Blog.
 
Take a peep at the Philly Fan Misery Index at the Philadelphia Sports Blog to see how many seasons it was since a Phillies World Series Championship, an Eagles Super Bowl triumph, a Hockey Hockey Championship victory, or a Sixers Championship.  The most recent is twenty-two years ago.  Shucks, 1.4 million Philadelphia sports fanatics were not even alive the last season philly experienced a championship.  So why in the world would anybody even want to be a viewer for any Philadelphia event?  Why would people want an Allen Iverson jersey or a ball inked by Kearse?
 
Here is a list of ten reasons why it can be great living as a Philly Sports fan

1. Misery Loves Company - As the old saying proports, misery does love company, and as certified by Philly athletic teams incessant failure, Philadelphia-area fans sure do have plenty of misery-and a plenty of company.  This is the city of Brotherly Love and we can usually discover some other lamentable fan to lament with.  Our Sports Radio Station, 610 WIP, is generally twenty-four hrs of disappointed people complaining about the Philadelphia Phillies and the other teams.  The radio hosts, whether they be Howard Eskin, Glen Macnow or Angelo and the morning crew, waste their breath giving the occasional delusional philly fan a knockout dose of realism.
    
2. Booing - Philly fans love booing a person whether it is Charlie Manuel, Terrell Owens or St Nick.  We all adore it!
    
3. Beer & Food - whether you enjoy tailgating before a Philadelphia Eagles sporting event or sitting in the Wachovia spectrum, or in front of Citizens Bank Park, Philadelphians delight in to guzzle suds and eat hoagies.  This seems to be the reason why we are always among the chubbiest Americans Each year.
    
4. Dallas Cowboy Fans - Sure the Eagles cannot capture the Super Bowl EVER.  But lately We have been systematically trouncing the Cowboys.  For some reason, there is still a tiny but mouthy group of failures who with pride contact WIP Sports Radio and scream - this is the year that Dallas will beat the Eagles. Of course, we never have to hear them again Until the following year when the Eagles squelch the Cowboys.
    
5. Wing Bowl - this is held on the Friday prior to the Super Bowl in the Wachovia Center and receives more people than a Philadelphia Flyers game.  We still cannot figure out how it is possible that 20,000 locals are here to catch a couple of people chow down on loads of buffalo wings but they seem to.  The scores of half-naked women and brews likely aid slightly with getting people down there though, aye?
    
6. Hope of a Broad Street Parade - Sure all Philly fans recollects way back in the 70s when our Flyers won the Stanley Cup and one million natives showed up at the Broad Street Parade, right?  Since 2.7 million Philly kids were not even on earth yet-it is imaginable that they have listened to the narrations for so long, it is almost like they recollect.
    
7. Cheese Steaks - Every top 10 list associated to Philly ought to list Cheesesteaks.  A yuse want a steak wit is nearly as Philly as us never winning a championship.  Take a glance at Eagles coach Andy Reid and you will view a lover of cheesesteaks
    
8. The Philadelphia Phanatic - He is totally the neatest philadelphia fan ever.  Hairy, mad, and devoid of pants, he accurately symbolizes a large cross-section of the Philadelphia adult male.
    
9. Allen Iverson - enjoy him or loathe him, each Philadelphia fan values him on the hardwood.  He maneuvers through sprains, kinks, slashes, contusions and broken bones, and will electrify the fans.  However, he is yet a bit more crazy off of the basket seeming like the spokesperson of the hood.  He is the reverse of Donovan McNabb, who is always loved by All sports devotees, Allen makes a career from neglecting drills, brooding if he cannot play almost each instant of each game, tangling in scrapes with the law, or simply showing up a City Line Ave. tGIFs with his Mommy.  He is called the guy Basketball stars that Philadelphia fans love to hate and hate to love.
    
10. Overcoming The Billy Penn Curse - Prior to the mid to late 1980s, no structures in center City Philadelphia had ever been taller than the William Penn statue on top of city hall.  Ever since the "Gentlemans Agreement" was dismissed, no Philadelphia team has captured a title - it has now been just a little more than twenty-two long years.  People talked about the Chicago Cubs curse or the Red Sox curse of the Bambino which was broken in 2004 but Both of those cities had different teams winning Championships.  No curse compares to the anguish endured by a Philly sports fan.

In all probability that is the reason that even with Philadelphia fans getting rid of their season tickets, calling Howard Eskin at WIP, and taking an oath that they will never support their team again that they are here each pre-season ready to boo once again.
