I can't even cut and paste it without making a mess. What a piece of shit 'newspaper'

[old mark]

1. Agreed - we took enough bullshit from the LA papers, but I guess this just must be.

I want the Phils to take care of this business in 5 games, just like with the Dogggers. I want to give the NY fans a little bit of hope, then crush them totally.

Oh, yeah Yankees....Fuck you.

2. city-based trash talk is pretty weak

3. What do you expect from a Murdoch owned Paper

:grr:

4. The Philly media has from time to time been known to indulge in opposing city-bashing as well

one columnist there, before an NFC championship game between the Eagles and Panthers, described Charlotte as "a city so dull, its nickname is... Charlotte.".

Actually, it's "the Queen City". And the Panthers won the game.

That piece, however, was completely over the top (wasn't the jail cell at the Vet designed for Eagles fans?).

5. The Angels took a lot of shit from the New York media too.

I'm with you Phillies fans all the way.

6. and some of the drunken quotes are way over the top...

"Their most famous athlete is Rocky, and he's fictional," sneered Alex Rusu, 23, a building superintendent in Gramercy.

none of the guys are more famous than Rocky??








And don't even try to compare the iconic House That Ruth Built with the long-gone Veterans Stadium.

Well maybe not the Vet, but this place had a little history: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shibe_Park

7. Half of New York City is rooting against the Yankees.

Fucking Mets fans of all people are for the Phillies in this one.

8. I wouldn't dignify the NY Post by going to their website.

9. It's the NY Post. 'nuff said.

They get their "news" by throwing darts at a noun-verb-noun board of topics.

[Danger Mouse]

10. The NY Post isn't even fit to wipe your ass with. I wouldn't line a litter box with it.

I wouldn't ruin a perfectly good fire by using the NY Post as fuel for it.

11. I'm a yankees fan

and I'm offended by that article. Most of my (extended) family are Phillies fans and it will be an interesting next week or so (between this and the ugly governor's race). I rooted for the Phillies last year when they were in the WS for the sake of my family, and also because I was a baby the last time they won. This time around I can't.

I nearly moved to Philly. I'd consider it again if I didn't like NJ so much.

BTW the NY Post is Rupert Murdoch's rag, and a POS newspaper.

12. Dude. It's the NY Post. They MIGHT be a little biased.

13. Go Mets!
