About

I enjoy writing about my passions, and the Flyers tend to be my #1 passion. I believe that I fall somewhere between "objective analyst" and "rabid die-hard fan," which is probably a bad combination when it comes to writing because it forces me to rationalize my emotional reaction to a bad trade or a poor performance. That being said, I love to get the fan's perspective on a story or an issue, because I feel that the fan understands sports culture better than players, coaches and owners. After all, sports without fans would be nothing more than a hobby.

    It's about fans who are largely; demanding,intelligent, rabid, disapointed, hopeful, energetic, frustrated, knowledgeable about they game and teams they root for and what to expect from a professional who is paid to perform. Enough about us being a top reason he will or won't perform and more about his skills. Maybe you mention that in slide three but i stopped reading from utter disgust.

    These MEN know exactly what they are getting into. If football was meant to be safe, they wouldn't pay PROFESSIONALS millions of dollars to do it. There is a risk in every career. If you take hitting away in football, you might as well call it golf.

    This culture shock has not taken effect yet, and don’t be surprised if his enthusiasm for his surroundings changes quickly once he learns what Philadelphia is all about.
