The insults keep flying in the pages of our beloved local rags in the build up to tonight's Game 1 showdown between the Yankees and "Frillies." The Post went out and interviewed "'Phil'istines" across Philly, only to come to the conclusion that, "If the Phillies are as soft as their fans, the Yankees could walk away with the Series in four with George Steinbrenner on the mound and Kate Hudson in the bullpen. These fans are softer than the bread their beloved cheesesteaks are served on."
Despite the soft underbelly of Philly fans, tickets in Philadelphia are selling for nearly $300 more than Yankee tickets on Stubhub, according to the Daily News. Some venerable institutions are nervous that Yankee Stadium could "be seeing too much Philly red tonight" as a result. Fans seemed angrier about the Post's "Frillies" cover picture of Shane Victorino with alabaster-tinted bare legs, although Ryan Howard thinks he could have pulled it off better.
Nonetheless, the expensive price of tickets hasn't stopped some hardcore fans from trying just about anything to get some. Philadelphian Susan Finkelstein, 43, was caught by police trying to exchange sexual favors for a pair of tickets on craigslist. According to the Post, she "apparently [believes] the "P" on the team's cap stands for "prostitution."'

Hey you, below... Leave Sad Rad alone, he's still awesome.
i guess Philly is really lacking in loud, obnoxious boneheads who have nothing more to live for than a baseball club
Agreed.
Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaa... we live in Philly and no one ever pays attention to us until now and we're sure going to make you regret that!
It hasn't even started yet and you're complaining. Philly is pretty close, you can grab an Amtrak home whenever the mood strikes pansies.
all this showboating makes me want the phillies to win.. or atleast see a good streetbrawl between fans
I hope NYers keep baiting the Phillies and calling their fans soft. Then when they play in Philly, I'll sit on my couch, put my feet up with a bucket of popcorn in my lap, and watch the poor Yankees get pelted with batteries.
The frillies and their fans are so soft, 9 marshmallows from w'burg could take them in 4!
The people who root for the professional baseball team from my geographical region are smarter and way better at just life in general than the people who root for the professional baseball team from your geographical region.
And if my team wins four professional baseball games before your team does, that'll be proof!
at least the pic is right on and has the rat wearing a stankees cap.
"soft fans" is about the lamest of insults, and couldn't be less true of philly fans, and no, I'm not one, in fact I'm a Mets fan and I can't believe I'm defending them, but this is exactly the kind of shit that makes the Yankees the most detestable franchise in the world (with Man U a close second)
It's The Bronx vs The Bronx with a skyline.
Keep underestimating the Phillies, NYC!
By the time you figure out that the Phillies are a good team, the World Series will be over in their favor.
