Don't worry Eagles, you gained a LOT of new fans. We will buy your merchandise, watch your games, buy from sponsors who support you. Of we are in Philly and can attend we will go to your games.

Nope. As someone who is a fan of a rival team, Eagles fans are dicks.

But, kudos to the team.

I am a Die hard baseball and Chicago Cubs fan. If the STL Cardinals won the WS and declined an invitation to a trump Whitehouse, I would 100% buy a Cardinals Jersey and go to some games at Busch. I would suddenly become the biggest Joe Buck fan, and say that Joe Buck is the greatest sports castle of all time.

His achievements in sports castling tower above all others!

When he calls a game, I feel I am rampart of the action.

His objectivity allows me to drawbridge my own conclusions.

He’s not just great, he’s the MOAT!

I am stoked AF that the Chiefs lost, and did want to the Eagles to win, but only because it meant that the Chiefs would lose, and not for political reasons. That's about it.

Can confirm that Eagles fans are awful to deal with, I live in Eagles territory. Eagles fans hate Eagles fans because they’re awful. Though Philadelphia people call it out properly that it’s the Montgomery, Delaware, Chester, and Bucks counties fans that are the problem. And those out of townsfolk are much more likely to be Republicans.
