Man, you guys are bipolar as (frank).

What do you expect from a fanbase that is mostly made up of Eagles fans?

Eagles win - "Best team ever, Superbowl baby, Wentz is amazing, D is coming around, (frank) Dallas!"

Eagles lose: "This team sucks, blow it up. Our Wentz is broken, return him. Trade everyone on the D, (frank) Dallas!"

I think you have a right to disagree with him on it but not to tell him what he should do. Last word.

I wasnt telling to do anything I was criticizing his decision and his mentality towards turning down free tickets. I would love to get free tickets to the Flyers. I got a free ticket to a CFL gamea couple weeks ago. I am not really a football fan, dont really follow the local team but I still went and enjoyed myself regardless.

We are 5 points off the division lead. Columbus has zero games in hand.

You gotta fight for your right, or something. That's why the Flyers don't have any rights.

19 games without a fight. Someone is rolling in their grave.

In his defense, the weather and parking situation last night were far from ideal.

Theoretically lol, that word does not apply to us. We win/lose 10 in a row and do as we please. Show up to the rink and roll the dice.

Which would have been an acceptable response in my opinion. Just irks me that someone would even consider going and calls themselves a fan. That to me shows you dont give a damn about the team. At least the nonsense that goes on here people are showing passion, as misguided as most of it is

Again, some of us have responsibilities (family, friends, pre-arranged engagements) that keep us from going, or at least offer an alternative.

Not everyone has the freedom to go when offered tickets at the drop of a hat. Then you have to deal with traffic, especially in bad weather. Also, even with free tickets, you have to think about things like parking, tolls, food, etc. which is like $45. That's not exactly cheap.

I learned this a long time ago.... when you argue with MJL there are no winners, only 2 year bans.

Im not arguing that though. If there was a reason thats fine. He didnt have one, he just said he was offered plus a free parking pass and he didnt even consider going. Any fan would consider going to the game, it doesnt mean the can go or there isnt anything more pressing, it is the fact that he didnt even think it over. The answer would have always been no

I had a reason, this team isn't fun to watch.

You can claim I had no reason, but that simply isn't true.

I want to go to be entertained.

After all, the purpose of sports is to be entertained.
