1. Now, now...calling out other DUers is bad.
In this case, kinda humorous, but still bad. In fact, I hate that I chuckled.

2. I think an exception can be made


After all, this is the Sports Forum and the person in question hasn't exactly had a gracious reaction to the Patriots loss Saturday...



But I understand.



It's been so long since anyone in Philadelphia has actually won anything, it's typical that certain people have to get their kicks from seeing other people lose, too.



Maybe one day a team from Philly will win something and their fans can finally feel fulfilled.



In the meantime, I guess the rest of us shouldn't feel bitter that they can only live vicariously through the success and failure of others.



:)

3. Who do you think her third team will be?
Michelle Wie is looking for some fans.

Just sayin'.

5. Uh, Will, actually you're the one looking silly
Ponies meant Broncos, not Colts.

Just look at friesianrider's post #21 in that thread you linked. Looks like she actually had a very good day after all:

"They just generally sucked. The receivers sucked, Brady sucked, and the defense sucked. It was truly a sight to behold.

I was cheering for Denver, but my #2 team to the Eagles is obviously the Steelers!"

6. Well, some people just lack all sense of graciousness

That said, I'm pretty sure she was cheering for the Broncos, who will get beat by the Steelers in the AFC championship, who will then lose to the Seahawks in the Super Bowl. I didn't really see any excuse for the bitter, sour grapes thread you linked to in your OP, so it'll be nice to see a comeuppance of sorts.

9. Locking - Flag on the play
15 yard penalty for unsportsmanlike conduct.
Sheesh you're tough. All y'all should just be thankful you don't have to deal with Ron Mexico on your team. So there!

No calling out other members.
