Although I realize that the game will have probably started in the U.S. of A. by the time this post goes up, you may as well stick your face in a computer rather than watching one of the most important 90 minutes in Philadelphia sports history….
Two Arguments In Response to the Eternal Question of the ‘08 Rayhawk vs. The ‘93 Phillies Mullet?
1. Stupid argument:
The mohawk is awesome like the Devil Rays, the mullet is a stigma of cultural ignorance akin to rooting for Philadelphia’s pathetic sports teams. Speaking of pathetic, the mulleted ‘93 Phillies lost the World Series to a team from Canada! You certainly won’t be able to say that about the mohawked Devil Rays. (Keep hope alive!)
2. Perfect, brilliant and amazing argument:
[I]f you’re asking me to compare, it’s no contest. You couldn’t decide a week before the season ends to grow out a mullet, you have to commit to the mullet. On the other hand, as I witnessed in the Tampa area this past week, any jaggov with a pair of clippers, some blue hair dye, and a horrible taste for fashion can have a Rayhawk. It’s strange, but these appearances could also be viewed as a metaphor of their respective fanbases. The Phillies mullet symbolizes the time and dedication us Philadelphians put into our team. The Rayhawk perfectly portrays the bandwagon trendiness of the Tampa fan.
