The Good Phight Phillies A's Rivalry



Greetings Phillies fans,

I saw a highlight of an Oakland A's game a couple days ago and had a thought cross my mind. I wondered what the rivalry would have been like between the A's and the Phillies if they had never left Philadelphia? Our passion for sports has been well documented throughout the years and Philadelphia has many great rivalries with other cities. Most notiably New York and Dallas. There are a lot of great college basketball rivalries in the city, but obviously none in the pros since we only have one team in each sport. I'm very curious to hear what you guys think it would be like in the city had the A's never left? I did some reading on the Philadelphia A's and for a good portion of the time they were here it was an A's town. Of course, being in different leagues probably would have hindered the rivalry, however, I think with the additition of interleague play it would have become one of the most intense rivalries in baseball. Any thoughts of what it would have been like?

Bleeding Green Nation Eagles Secondary

With the departure of Dawkins and Sheppard, I expect our starting corners to stay as Brown and Samuel, although I think there is a possibility that Hanson might take over for Brown next year. I expect our safties will most likely be Quintin Demps and Quintin Mikell. Our secondary played very well at times last year, but also got burned badly in some games, like in the NFC Championship game. How confident are you guys in our new secondary? I'm concerned about Demps as he is unproven in this league. Also, do you guys think we might take another saftey in the draft?

Bleeding Green Nation Most Hated Rival

Fellow eagle fans,

Like the rest of you i'm sure, I hate the Giants, Redskins, and Cowboys. However, unlike most Eagles fans my most hated team are the Redskins, because I live in Maryland surrounded by Redskin fans who I think are very obnoxious. So out of curiosity I was wondering which NFL team do you hate the most? Also, is there a specific reason why you hate a particular team the most? Thanks
