I am a Philly Guy...

I'm sorry.

Good grief,... both barrels. I'm hurt.

All in good fun my friend. But seriously, come on over to the black and gold.

I know..., couldn't come up with a snappy comeback. So as a whipped Swiftie I played the martyr card. LOL!

I will tell you a story about when I was a kid. I was born in Philly, lived there until I was 7, moved to King of Prussia in "65. My Father was a volunteer fireman and most of the Eagles of the 60s era lived in the high rise apartment building next to the firehouse (EB lanes of I-276 go right past it 2 miles east of the Valley Forge interchange). Needless to say the Saturday lunch crowd at the firehouse bar when they were playing home was, half Eagles; in no particular order; Dave Lloyd, Floyd Peters, Maxie Baughn, Norm Sneed, Jim Ringo, Tom Wudashik, Ben Hawkins, Pete Retzlaf...can't remember any more. I grew up with season tickets, Franklin Field, then the Vet...etc.

Anyway I bleed green...and orange once the puck drops.

But in the 70s, when the Eagles couldn't get out of their own way, I did like the Steelers. Hard not to.

We'll have some fun next weekend...our teams meet.

Be safe Brother. All in fun...

Yup! Getting ready to pick up my load that will take me back today. Can't wait to be back.

And, in case it got lost in the comment thread, if I stay on this route permanently I'm considering moving to Lewiston or nearby. Can anyone give me anyour insight or info?

I live in the Portland area, but all I can say about that area is that it's obviously not all as bad as Heavy C was making it out to be. I've been considering moving up that way myself because it's less expensive. I think Auburn seems nice.

I've got a delivery to the Lewiston DC on Wednesday, but i'm one of 'them' who's relegated to the right lane.

Hard to give you a hard time after that post buddy. Loved the history. This coming weekend might help you come westward though .... hey, it's still a PA team! No shame in moving from one PA team to another. It's not Jersey.
