    This is such a bullshit story. The fans booing had no idea what the PSA was even about. When you are getting pumped up for a game and there are motivational vids playing on the jumbo screen, then they flip to your most hated rival...the fans boo. As soon as he said "Im Sidney Crosby", every one boo'd and never even heard the rest of the commercial. THE SAME FUCKING THING WOULD HAPPEN IN ANY ARENA! Im sure they coulda got the home team guys only to cut a commercial and this wouldnt be a story.

    You've got to be kidding me??? Do you expect Flyer fans to sit on the edge of their seat while Crosby, Miller and Toews come on the jumbo screen in their home arena? The three of them could of been talking about taking down Al-Queda and boosting the economy and they still would of been boo-ed.

    I promise you that the spiel about the cancer was very much secondary as to why the 3 of them got boo'ed. I'm pretty sure the City of Philly has donated just as much as any other city of similar size to cancer.

    Don't travel too far down this road as you've taken the wrong path.

    Meh, just like getting you guys riled up. It is nice to see all the Philly failure lately though. God how did that baseball team lose a 5 game series?

    5 game series was the only one I was worried about. They honestly lost it the night Cliff Lee gave up the 4 run lead. I believe they win that game they go on and sweep.

    Oh well, the only thing that really bothers me about this whole eagles sucking thing too, is its like sportscenter cannot get enough of it. Like its the only story anyone wants to talk about, you know what, We suck, I get it. However we're still only 2.5 games back. If we can win Sunday against the Skins that would be huge. He is public enemy #1 here though (in my mind) :

    absolutely nothing wrong with them booing a rival on vid screen. even if they knew he was talking about cancer. (as long as their boos are still directed at the player and not his message, which they almost certainly are.)

    The key is the cheese dip that comes with it.

    I have no fucking clue what its made of tho. Pretty sure its just american cheese and some sort of cream/milk, but I have no idea.

    Apparently Chickies and Petes tries to make us think its some sort of elaborate cheese sauce. It cant just be american cheese tho or it would solidify really fast. No idea what it really is. Other places have it too and they all taste similar. Chickies is the best tho imo.

    I kinda hate cancer, but whatever.

    I absolutely hate Cindy Crosby and the bs Stanley she got. I'll go over game tape if you want.

    I woulda booed as well.

    Also a diehard Eagles fan since I was 8, man we suck on defense.

    I was at the game. It was kinda loud in there you really couldn't hear too much. They just flashed a pic of Sid on the scoreboard and you heard booing. I kinda chuckled when I heard it Obv. They had a nice moment of silence for Brad Mccrimmon. But they didn't mention that classy gesture by the Philly fans.

    I think the OP assumes that Philly fans can actually read, like word books as opposed to picture books. Since they do better assimilating pictures than words, it's a pretty natural reaction for them to seeing Crosby on the screen... so they should catch a break in this case.
