Giants and Eagles Fans

by Dansonofdirm on Nov 3, 2009 9:19 PM CST

Saw this clip today and really felt it lampooned these Gints and Igles fans well. They covered everything from cheering Irvin's injury, the classy nature of their women, and the generally uncouth behavior of these sports fans. I hadn't realized that the Giants, Eagles, Phillies and Yankees were all playing on the same day in Philadelphia. What a burden for a city to bear.

Good one

To be fair, a vast majority of fans worldwide suck. But still, the NY and Philly fans absolutely take the cake.

Although I’ve never actually been to a game myself, I’m told the Cowboys crowd is generally pleasant. Something to be a bit proud of, I suppose.

Epic Fail since 1985

I've been to about 5 or 6 Cowboys home games

and I’ve never seen a more polite, classy bunch of fans in my whole life and I’ve been to many NFL stadiums in my day.

Very rarely are opposing fans treated in any disrespected manner.

Sadly,

I think it’s partly because we have one of the least rowdy crowds in all of the NFL. At 100,00+ that place wasn’t rocking like many smaller stadiums. I don’t think teams fear coming to Dallas to play.

Philadelphia Fans

Have been called “Oakland East” by some. That’s an insult to Raiders fans. I believe Iggles fans, using the kindest description I can, are simply frustrated that their team year after year after year after decade ad nauseum let’s them down. They sometimes get so close to the ring, but then POP! All of the air comes out of their balloon. I’ll tell you, if the Phillies lose the series and we beat the Iggles this week, there will be widespread depression in the City of Brotherly Shove.

Oliver

It was a fantastic skit – love Oliver (the Brit, for the uninitiated) in the opening swinging a baseball bat like he was playing cricket …

He's a Really Funny Dude

No one mentions this

Because it’s not important. It’s still neat though. The day before the Yankees/Phillies and the Giants/Eagles played, the Knicks and 76ers had a game.

2009 Dallas Cowboys: 10-6
2009 New York Jets: 11-5?
2009-2010 Dallas Mavericks: 57-25

Talking about fans

Was at the Lions / Cowboys game in 2007 at Ford field. The Lions fans seemed for the most part to be friendly . Now it could be because they were outnumbered by the Cowboy fans. The funny thing was when they showed shots of the fans on the screen, they were always the same small group of Lion’s fans.
