As a diehard Philly fan lets just stop here. We've only cheered honestly one time for an injury that I can recall and that was when Michael "My Crackhead Cousin Forgot His Pipe" Irvin went down at the Vet. That happened years ago. We will still pour beer on an opposing fan or hit on his wife but I can't recall outside of the Irvin injury in which we cheered.

Joakim Noah, playoffs, last year.

I'm sure there's more, however that doesn't change the fact that Chicago is wrong for what they did last night. That's the first time I've seen a Chicago crowd do something like that and I was ashamed by it. Especially considering what they witnessed happened to D-Rose on that same floor.

Outside of cheering for injuries, we know the reputation. It was an ugly scene last night from the Bulls fans, I can't and won't argue that. I was simply speaking to the "rethinking the thoughts between Chicago and Philadelphia fans." I wasn't looking to expand on it past that.

The crowd was especially hot it seemed last night...I know y'all don't like the Heat, but they seemed more fired up than usual...

I don't know what was going on last night. Maybe seeing D-Rose out there with the athletic layups got them all fired up. As far as I know, he's only been shooting jumpshots pregame, last night was the first night they've seen him doing layups and doing some real moving around. Either that or ESPN hyping up the LeBron v Jordan talks in the past few weeks.

That wasn't even a quarter of the crowd in either case. Don't label a fan base because of forty people.

You can determine how many people in the crowd were cheering? That's an impressive skill. Forty people? Really?



That's a helluva lot more than 40 people bro.
