Class in sports went out the window about 30 years ago. This pertains to players and fans. Most players and fans are dumb f..cks, with the lone exception being SportsHoopla contributors.
I kind of agree here. Part of the problem today is that it's all over social media as the main focus.

I don't let the shit bother me honestly. I simply ignore and move on. At the end of the day we are the champs and the future looks great for us. That alone will make our division rivals lose sleep at night.:suds:

Well said!

Sometimes I can't help myself to stick it to a Cowboys fan though :)

One final note and no offense to the OP. I hate this thread for a couple of reasons. There is no need to be apologetic to anyone as a fan. Philly sports will forever be labeled as the rude and rabid fanbase. I say who fucking cares what everyone else thinks. No need to have a thread like this. We all have our sour apples and unfortunately I think that label stuck with us since 1960, just my opinion. People still today don't understand the booing of the Santa deal. If they actually took 5 minutes of there time to look it up, they would have a better understanding.

I never said we needed to apologize to anyone. I said behave with class, be a "good winner".

Frankly, behaving like a jackass is exactly why the Santa thing never dies.

Imagine (God forbid) the Cowboys were in this position. Do you think for a second they would be accepting graciously, with class? Yeah, right. I take extreme pleasure knowing that Jerry Jones and the rest of the cuckold Cowboy fanbase are choking on their own vomit knowing that Eagles are the reigning, undisputed CHAMPIONS. Eat a dick, Jerry.

That is all.

No, we know how they would be acting. But you don't want to be like them, do you?

And the irony is lost on them. They're acting like Cowboys fans now.

Actually, in order to act like Cowboy fans, you will have to be still bragging about winning this Super Bowl in 2043, despite not having won anything since 2018.

I agree with Iggy. We should be on the other boards saying things like, "Jolly fine match, my good man! I so DO look forward to our teams meeting up again and may the better team win. Pip pip, cherrio!"

Iggy, I love you, man. But it's a stinkin' football discussion board! :yahoo:

@Carnzo @redseat @sonnyblack65 and a couple other Pats fans are good people. Overall I think they are a good group with an exception of a couple of outliers.

Yeah there are a few of us who are good ones and some that are really bad and homers... Sadly you can find em with any fan base

Also, Barry Sanders won nothing... ever, and then he quit on his team because they weren't good enough.

Using him as an example is just sad. Great RB, sure. But he was the complete antithesis of this team.

There is lots of dumbass Eagle's fans on tHoop, but you get to be the poster child.

Honestly....I’ve always felt the Santa story never died because we as a fan base never let it go.

What I mean is...trolls only bait with things they know will sting. I’ve had friends and coworkers as fans of other NFC teams try this one before. The fuck do I care? I wasn’t alive then.

I’m not saying this about individuals....but the fan base as a whole. We have always had an inferiority complex as a fan base. But we won the whole....fucking....thing. We sat on top when it was all done this year. They don’t get to bait with no rings, Santa or anything anymore.

As for the rest....our fanbase has assholes before winning it all...and we have assholes after winning it. I’ll still take the latter over the former.

Why do some fans have no class?
Why is water wet?

We probably will add quite a few more assholes now that the Eagles won the SB. That seems to be the trend after a franchise wins a championship. The bandwagon assholes.
