I try to be as respectful as possible but c'mon. I know the habs media would do the same thing but this article glorifies a team who has been dutifully outplayed all series save for Biron. I think that writer should go back to journalism school.

Homer article is biased, but hopeful.

Good teams find a way to win.

The Flyers are winning; therefore, they are a good team, playing as a team and riding a hot goaltender.

If the Fly guys can keep up the teamwork and like the Eagles, bend don't break...then they will win more games this post-season...

Aw come on! This thing doesn't bash anyone, it is just some babble, but I don't see it as anything to be upset about.

I've read some articles in the Canadian press, and the US as well, that portray this team and it's fans as nothing short of convicts or worse.

Put your big boy pants on and deal with it.

This is the Flyers forum. What do you expect?

If I had posted it in the Canadiians forum, I could see you being upset about it, but come on!

i'm just responding to what you said and you said it's a pretty good article which it is not. We have a guy for the Montreal Gazette named Red Fisher who'll bash the habs when warranted and glorify them if it's deserved and if I were a Flyers beat writer, I'd be a bit cautious with the glorification.

Wow. It's just a fluff piece, just filling up some space on am off game day!

This is the Flyers forum, I just thought Flyers fans would have some fun with it!!

Geez, and I thought I was wound too tight about this stuff!gxtjmx

That last post was me. I was in a place in the plant that wouldn't let me log onto the forum.

I'm a bit dissappointed this article has gotten such a bad reception.

Had I posted it in the general NHL section, that would be warranted.

But this area is for Flyers fans, I and thought that they would enjoy it!

[blueandwhite]

I wouldn't say this area is for Flyers fans - it's for Flyers discussions.
But go ahead, enjoy it.

I agree with Phills. As I learned from the past, if you are going to say something bad about a team in their forum, think about what you are doing.

[Phils20]

I'm done posting anything but game results until this series is over. I really just thought this piece, that I've deleted, was just a harmless fluff piece that Flyers fans would enjoy.

I truly had no idea the folks would find it offensive.

Until this series is done, I'll just restrict myself to posting the score, and not post any more links or editorial comments.

My apologies to the board if my postings here have been combative or offensive.

[chilltown]

I thought is was funny...

don't sweat it and keep posting.

The worst thing that could happen to this forum is censorship.

Some trash talking is expected and there isn't any of that going on.

This forum couldn't be any more bland.

Please share comments and attitude!

[Phils20]

Glad you thought it was cool.

Like I said, it wasn't meant to fan the flames, or piss anyone off. It was just an off day fluff piece, that I thought fans of this team would enjoy.

Instead, folks found it to be somehow instigating.


WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO, Flyers just tied the game!

YES!

Phils, I'm so hopelessly out of the loop... is this Game 6 or 7 for you guys?

Game 6!

Flyers have just come from a 3-1 defecit in this game to go up 4-3 after two periods.

I hope we have withstood the rush, and can just end it tonight.

[Lefty Noob]

Good luck. I want that Pens-Flyers series I predicted to come true.
