"What's there to do in Philly? Oh, boy....."
Are any other Red Sox fans sick and tired about hearing about Philly? ("Well there's a lot, a lot of culture....it's like a baby New York!")

2. Best restaurants in the country.
Not even New York has a 5 star.

Why would Red Sox fans be inundated with talk about Philly if I may ask? You aren't even in the National League.

6. Hah. You know what? We get all the Boston commercials.
With the same thing I guess. In these commercials they have a bunch of non New Englanders trying to learn the accent from tapes. Bahston, Tohn-ic, Chow-dah. Kind of funny but I agree they are overplayed.

7. Damn right
I love living in LA, but I'd move back to Philadelphia any time. You cannot eat great food like they have in Phialdelphia any place other than NY or SF. How I miss Brasserie Perrier and Le Bec Fin! Susanne Foo! The Fountain! Deux Chiminees! White Dog!

3. We kind of like Red Sox fans here because
they hate Yankee Fans.

And although we won the Series in 1980, we fully understand the story of Boston and sympathize.
