I might be- I could be- I hate myself- I hate my parents- I hate Spongebob- I hate God- I like Hitler- I hate the Hittites-

I hate saying this. But I maybe sorta am pulling for the Rangers.

For clarification, when I mail in my Flyers Fan Card, which body parts should I include? If we're talking Game Of Thrones Greyjoy parts, I'll resist, but I'll understand.

I don't know what it is but I find their current team very difficult to hate. They're everything we're not but always wanted to be. They're defensively responsible...almost humble. They've got dat goalie. And while we've got one now, they've been building around theirs for a decade.

And they're an unprecedented underdog.

On a strictly emotional level, I'm beyond ambivalent.

I'm with ya. I'm cheering for NYR, and I don't think it's that big a deal. I just like them more than LA (and no, it's not because of R and C. I want to see them win).

There just isn't a real rivalry between our teams to justify me investing any hatred toward them. They're actually a likable team, and I see no reason why some people consider it "unthinkable" to hope they win here.

Because they are new york and we are philadelphia. It is unthinkable. **** everything new york.

You're really going to root for an in division opponent whos fans will gloat and hold it over our heads for however long it takes for us to finally get one?

All the Rangers fans (read: RANGERS fans, not any other NY fanbase) are pretty humble and knowledgeable about the game. I could live with it.

I am, I personally don't know any actual Rangers fan that would rub it in if they win so I am cool with cheering for the Rags in this instance. Just don't want to see the Bobsy twins and Williams win yet another Cup.:cry:

At the same time as both of my eyes swelling up and then bursting with shame, ....

I really don't have anything to add to that. **** the rags.

Is it really tolerated around here to post that one likes Hitler? That's pretty stupid, even as a joke.

Positives about Rangers winning:

-I hate those Western elitists
-I hate seeing former Flyers win the cup especially Carter.

Negatives about Rangers winning:

-The Rangers win the ******* Stanley Cup

Well you hate spongebob, therefore your opinion is invalid.

But yeah our series with them was so stale I frankly have no interest in hating them anymore. I hope it picks up again though , because I really enjoy rivalries. Hating a team with a passion allows me to become so much more invested in the game.

That's going to change if they win a Cup and the bandwagon fills up. Such is the way of big metro areas.

This. So much this.

Also, they'd be bragging about beating the Flyers and the "Flyers West" en route to the cup; we don't need that.

St. Louis is a whiny ***** who forced his way out of Tampa because he couldn't make team Canada. He and Richards, who is an overpaid and just generally seems like a dick, helped beat the Flyers in '04. Nash is overpaid and has been overrated for his entire career. Boyle is giant puss bag. Staal looks like his in the Hitler Youth, and finally there is Carcillo who is quite clearly one of the most hateable players in the league.

I don't care how dreamy Lundqvist is, **** the rags

Love this whole post, but especially that haha


If you are a flyers fan and you are rooting for the rags, you should be ashamed of yourself. End of story

It will pain me as much as anyone to see Carter and Richards win again but they already got a cup so whats the difference. No way am I okay with the ****ing rags winning a cup. **** that!
