This is a cute article and well worth reading, but you need to take it with a large grain of salt.
The reason most patriotic Pennsylvanians despise the Philadelphia area with a purple passion is really quite simple: Without Philadelphia, our fair Commonwealth has enough patriotic people that we could easily outvote the goofball left in places like Pittsburgh, Harrisburg and Scranton and, essentially, we would be Kentucky rather than a left leaner narrowly won by Trump.

Take just Philadelphia out completely, and the state of PA would be RED in every election.

Philadelphia ALWAYS provides a “PLUS” margin of 500,000 votes for the D’s in every Presidential election. That’s 500,000 vote plus margin that has to be erased throughout the rest of the state.

PA is Philadelphia on the East, Pittsburgh on the West with Alabama in the middle.

I wonder now how true to their namesake the New England “Patriots” actually are.
To: Vigilanteman
Is Philly a typical Dem sh-thole?
(Never been there).
But if I were going to follow the Superbowl, I’d be rooting for the Eagle - they’re NFC and I’m not a fan of same ol’, same ol’ dynasty dominated games - same as with the Cowboys back in their heyday. Like to see new faces.

Eagles defensive end Chris Long donated his 2017 salary to charity. - self absorbed libtard and Trump hater.
Good guys:
Carson Wentz, Nick Foles, Trey Burton, Marcus Johnson
Bad guys:
Malcom Jenkins (BLM kneeler), Chris Long (libtard), Jeffry Laurie (owner, Hillary supporter)

Any body loving anything to do with the current NFL is an embarrassment to America and things American

What, exactly, is a “Super Bowl”?
Maybe a serving size bigger than “large?
Think I’ll order a super bowl of feces for Roger Goodell to eat while he barks at the moon.

Well piss on you too!
If you don’t like the NFL stay the hell off the NFL threads. It’s an easy concept. No one here want’s to hear your “Look at me, I’m better than you cause I hate the NFL” crap.

Good parts/bad parts. Like most cities. Have a relative in the burbs. Been several times.

“PA is Philadelphia on the East, Pittsburgh on the West with Alabama in the middle.”
A common misconception, and a derivative of the left’s flyover country perspective.
Philly and Pitt are holes. But the burbs surrounding them are quite nice, and full of successful, intelligent, conservative people.

“If you dont like the NFL stay the hell off the NFL threads.”
Who died and put you in charge? Little Hitler.
If you don’t like being shamed for supporting the NFL, stay off of conservative websites.
