Why is this front page news in Philly

Ya know, I just don't get why everything that TO does is a big deal in Philly. I know when players leave teams in other towns, the type of obsessive stuff done't still go on.

You have top have the Flash download to watch. This is a weekly sports update, and I find the content interesting.

Your opinioins should be interesting. Keep in mind, these are Philadelphia writers, who should be talking about a red hot Flyers team right now, but would rather focus on the negatives of a player who is not even in this town anymore. Sad.

T.O. attracts attention. Of course the Philly sports writers should get over him, but besides the Flyers, what else is there to write about?

Very true. The Sixers are going nowhere, but I just find it tiresome. I don't like him either, but he doesn't consume my interest like it does for these guys. You are close enough to see it is front page news here. Even over the Flyers, who are currently playing. Hell, Comcast owns the Flyers, yet the TO headline was the lead story on the Comcast broadcast that night.

I guess it attracts viewers...

MY guess is their job was so easy/ there was always something to write about, when T.O. was an Eagle, and they just miss the good ole days.
