Philly fans, on a scale of 1-10, 10 being the worst, how brutal was it to watch that beating yesterday?

Question

Hey, you gave it a good try...h**l, I even was drinking with Flyers fans after the game in the South Side...and they werent jagoffs! Too bad the rest of the Flyers fans didn't take my advice before the game when I told them to drink heavily before the game to mask the pain they were going to witness at 3pm...

Answer 1

Not as brutal as the beating the Red Wings will administer to the Penguins.

Answer 2

A caller on the postgame show hit it on the head...this wiped out Behn Wilson's kick-in, Ken Wregget's performance in 1989 and Keith Primeau's 5OT winner all in one.  The team will get back to work tomorrow, but Pens fans will savor this A**-whoopin' for a LONG, LONG time!!!!!

Answer 3

Could have been worse, it could have happened in game 4.

Answer 4

I will rate it a 5.  Had this individual game gone a little differently, I would have put the number lower.  They got their doors blown off yesterday and that shouldn't have happened.  If they are in that game at any point, I would have rated it a 1 or 2.  Like the others stated, they made huge strides this year exceeding what anyone expected out of them.  This is going to be a fun rivalry over the next decade.

Answer 5

There are still Philly fans sticking around here after that beating?

Answer 6

A 3.Yes it sucked but we were the underdog since we got into the playoffs.The sweep by the Wings were a 10,the goal by Claude against Hexy is a 10.This game wasn't nearly as bad as those two games.I knew it was coming to an end yesterday but the emergence of the Flyers this year was very exciting so sorry it wasn't brutal.

If you would have told me that we'd be in the Semi finals let alone Conference finals in the beginning of the year I'd be pleased.

Answer 7

You know, my self imposed TV blackout wasn't meant entirely for the Flyers to not be jinxed by moi, it was also intended to spare me from being witness to such ECHL level effort.

From what I hear, I'd have given it a 9 only because I never say that I have seen the worst.

Answer 8

LOL...BEAUTIFUL......

Answer 9

yea i am going to go with a 4...wasnt to brutal remeber there were not even suppost to make it to this point i think they have alot of hope for next year.

Answer 10

That game was a thing of beauty.  The Flyers were totally outclassed during this entire series, and the Pens finally showed their full potential Sunday.

Answer 11

Easy there Michael. Your Wings have to defeat the Stars before they get to play us.

I look for Detroit to win tonight. If you think the Wings are going to cruise to a Cup against the Pens you my friend are sadly mistaken. That will be one of the finest Cup Finals in quite some time.

Answer 12

I'm a Pens fan, but I know how it feels to see your team get slaughtered that bad. 10

Answer 13

I'm a Pens fan and I actually found myself feeling sorry for them.......just a little.

Answer 14

this was nothing a mere 3

as Joe pointed out getting swept by the Wings trumps this big time. This was the Conference Finals not the Cup finals

how brutal will it be if they don't win the cup and  this Pens team gets ripped apart by the salary cap and free agency?

on a scale of 1-10 id say that is far worse....... a heavy 10

gldmj5  yes we are still here we are not bandwagon

Judging by that comment you are as you just admitted you would be gone

Answer 15

im a pens fan but ill say it was a 12. they got murdered even with timonen. one of my favorite parts of the series was the orange shirts they all wore that said "why not us".   To answer that question, the penguins are why. f*ck philly. f*ck detroit. we cant be stopped
