I only speak the truth.  It's an absolute travesty that you are able to root for both the Mets and the Eagles.

Mets = rival of Philadelphia team
Magic = rival of no one, team no one really cares about

They're my team and I really don't give a shtein what a bunch of dorks on an internet bulletin board thinks about that.

That said, it's just the NBA, so in a way, I agree with you.  The Phillies, on the other hand... dude, it's Major League Baseball.  It the oldest organized league in this country, so it matters even if the Phillies have sucked forever and a day.  If you're from Philly, you cheer for the Phillies.  It's just as simple as that.  At least to me, it is.

True... it really becomes a problem when the Eagles and Mets play each other.

So going by that logic, if you're equidistant to both Philly and NY, then you root for the Mets and the Eagles.

Thanks for clearing that up Romey.  :yay

No, you should have picked a city.

SunMo

if you were an Eagles fan and a Royals fan, that would be weird but not as bad.

but rooting for New York and Philly?  for shame

i love you, sunnycakes.
Zero hour, Michael. It's the end of the line. I'm the firstborn. I'm sick of playing second fiddle. I'm always third in line for everything. I'm tired of finishing fourth. Being the fifth wheel. There are six things I'm mad about, and I'm taking over.

SunMo

sometimes, we tell lies for so long, we don't know when it's safe.
