smokinandjokin Posted April 6, 2006 Share Posted April 6, 2006 You know the Philly 'fans' will come fully prepared for this one. Should be a real sh*t show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillsGuyInMalta Posted April 6, 2006 Share Posted April 6, 2006 I'd go to the dollar store, pick up a bunch of those cheapo D Cell batteries, paint them green and sell them for 5 bucks a pop outside of the Philly stadium that day. I have a feeling I'd make a fortune, nothing says "The proper way for Philly fans to express one's rational anger" like chucking batteries at TO from the stands.

He'd rue the day his team visited on "Canada Day", when there's plenty of beer and lit cigarettes to throw around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aussie is putting together plans for a trip, so you know it'll be a good one. Maybe TD will even stop by...? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True, they weigh less, but the corners and the terminals lend themself to drawing blood. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IIRC, they came back from 3 - 1 to knock off the Orioles. I don't recall what precipitated the battery tosses at Parker, though. He was involved in a cocaine scandal with some other players, and they ratted out their supplier to escape w/o charges. I went to lots of Pirates games - and Three Rivers, being a "round"-style stadium, had great sight lines for baseball, anywhere in the park.

I just remember the stadium erupting when Cesar Geronimo struck out, which started the "We Are Family" party. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThePebble19 Posted April 7, 2006 Share Posted April 7, 2006 I have to agree with James Washington on FOX sports radio this morning on this situation...I just don't see the big deal...The guy was in Philly for 2 seasons, and only played a total of 1 season in two years! He put up great numbers while he was there, but Philly is treating him like he is the entire reason the franchise didn't win the Super Bowl, and for the downfall of the team. I could understand the massive anger if McNabb was playing for Dallas and coming back to Philly, but to me, hes no different than any other free agent, money grubbing guy. The problem with this situation is, that TO is a great reciever on the field. And he knows the ins and outs of those DBs in Philly. I think he blows up in the two games they play next year, and Philly fans go home feeling empty because they never get that "big hit" on TO...
