I'm sure Flyers fans in Philly would still root for them, but you definitely couldn't say that Philly is a 4 sport city.

Reading and San Jose are really similar, though.  Aside from geography, wealth, and population they're nearly identical.  It's actually a great comparison.

I was responding to Geo asking if Reading was considered part of Philly or not.  Of course Reading isn't like Philly.  Whitey Bucks County isn't like Philly either.  Camden...getting closer.  They're all considered the same market though.  I brought up Harrisburg because that's the next closest major market, and Harrisburg is considered a secondary market of both Philly and Baltimore.  San Jose is considered part of the "Bay Area" market, and Sacramento is a secondary market of the "Bay Area", which now leads to a discussion of whether or not Kings/Sharks fans are allowed to exist.  All of this has to do with Chip Kelly of course

I was responding to Sassy's excellent initial analogy.

Except that I didn't compare anything about Reading and San Jose other than their distances from SF and Philly.  Not sure what their population or wealth really has to do with anything.

no one from philly should root for a team from reading but it would at least be understandable because no one is from reading besides matty and the bat boy for the reading phils who has 13 fingers....but san jose is an actual real life city...and under no circumstances do you root for a team from another city

With the exception of BigEd...all of your are idiots. Of course, you each knew that already...but just in case you all forgot in this carousel of captivating conversation. Make sure you all end yourselves when you're finished but light yourselves on fire before you do so there's not mess to pick up.

Eh, I don't know if I'll go quite that far.  If someone in San Fran likes hockey and roots for the Sharks, that's cool.  There's no alternative and SJ makes the most sense.  It's not like people in SJ aren't 9ers or Raiders fans just because they don't live within city limits.  And I wouldn't expect 9er fans to stop being 9ers fans when the team moves to Santa Clara....which technically is a city in and of itself, but is more like a suburb of San Jose.

But San Jose is a legit city and the Sharks do not "belong" to San Fran, which I think is what the actual point was to begin with.

I've been to San Jose and they're all Niners/Giants fans there, so now what

I'm the Anti-Christ. You got me in a vendetta kind of mood.

San Jose is a really nice city.  I think Chip Kelly lives there in the offseason.

Discovered by the Germans in 1904, they named it San Jose. Which of course in German means "a whale's vagina".

perhaps you could explain sd's reasons for "disliking" it as well since you seem to be so in tune with other peoples minds
