Using every cliche in the book, GQ has decided that Phillies fans are the Worst Sports Fans in America. Second Worst? Yep, Eagles fans. Citing our booing of our star players and (gasp!) Santa Claus, the cheering when Michael Irvin got injured and when that moron got tased and our favorite puking fan, GQ puts us atop their list and calls us the "meanest fans". Penn State fans finished 7th as well.
First thought: since when did GQ become an expert on sports? Second thought: talk about a lazy piece of journalism, the guy trotted out every stereotype and didn't bother to do any real research or come up with any new arguments. Oh well, I'm pretty sure nobody reads GQ anymore.
Thanks to Matt Gelb on Twitter for the heads up.

Hey! Do you know if they make any plugins to
protect against hackers? I'm kinda paranoid about losing everything I've worked
hard on. Any suggestions?

Cool blog! Is your theme custom made or did you download it from somewhere?
A theme like yours with a few simple tweeks would really make my blog shine.
Please let me know where you got your design.
Thanks

I've been browsing online greater than three hours lately, but I by no means found any interesting article like yours. It is pretty value enough for me. Personally, if all site owners and bloggers made just right content as you probably did, the net will likely be much more useful than ever before.
