As a guy who used to travel for work a ton. I couldn’t agree more about philly. Horrible city. Maybe areas are nice but all the places I have been were depressing and dirty. And I was us air guy so philly was a hub and I hated that airport. I always tried to go through charolette when possible.

Glad to see everyone supporting this. I don’t get how any objective person can even pretend that Philly can be considered on of the best in the US.... or anywhere close
 
If I am making $300 mil...I would gladly take a $50 mil cut to not have to live there for ten years.

The Atl minus traffic is a pretty cool city. Manny hit the jackpot in more than one way. It’s hard to beat living in San Diego (although the park is nothing special to me).

Last time I was in Philly for any amount of time, I was pan handled by 3 different Ben Franklin's in a 2 block area, two of which offered to have sex for money. I was a little concerned until I saw that they were making the same offer to everyone regardless of race, creed, sex, national origin, etc. Hey, it is the city of brotherly love.

I did learn that one Benjamin can get you 5 Ben Franklin's in Philly if your bell rings that way.

zeets is from philly. Makes total sense now.
 
Kershaw having trouble with his shoulder now. If he goes down they are hurt big time. If Kershaw is still hurting next week then I could see them move on Keuchel.

That's one for the plus column. Now you're making me reconsider my opinion of Philly.

Philly isnt a terrible city to live in but it's not close to the West Coast or NY. But it's kinda funny they sent their owner there for 2+ days, and still nothing happened, only way he's going there it seems is if they give him 400M.

It's pretty clear he doesnt wanna go there.

I think he's probably gonna go to Philly but if he wanted to be there, he'd have signed there a long time ago.

I live in Bismarck... but I lived in midtown Atlanta for 6 years.... North Chicago 3 years... both easily better than Philly. Philly is dirty, the people are rude and it’s just a dull depressing city,

lol so zero concrete reasons.
atlanta is literally the least impressive city i've ever been to. i was thoroughly disappointed. it offers basically nothing philadelphia offers.
and i won't even address north dakota.

Chattanooga, but lived just outside of Nashville for about 5 years. Philly is ok. Lots of history. It's also pretty awful in many ways. Certainly doesn't crack the top 20 for me in places to live.

in what ways?
every single city i've been to is as "dirty" as the last. when i've been in atlanta, it feels WAY more dirty. and is exceptionally drab.
never been to TN. i also do not want to go to TN.

i've lived in philly for years and 0 people i know have ever had that happen and i've never seen it. someone is lying.
 
it's extremely common for people from the south to talk **** on great northern cities like Philadelphia. just please stay in atlanta, or go to ND where people don't really want to live (for good reason).
 
Dodgers are apparently “back in” on Harper, tho seeking a short term deal. At this point I hope the saga drags on a couple more weeks so that he’s not ready to play by Opening Day

You clearly care waaaay too much what some random people on the internet say about your city.

If the dodgers get Harper, Philly will end up giving Dallas and Kimbrel 200 million dollar deals. All that money and no one to spend it on haha

how much do i care and how much should i care.

Philadelphia, ms, actually. We don't cry like the other Philadelphians over random posts on the internet.

Don’t hate on others because you have to live in philly. We still love you for who you are not what crappy city you live in. I am sure there are worse places to be. But I think the consensus here is that philly is pretty awful city. Hell you can’t even buy a beer at a gas station. Had to go to some booze store. What kind of anarchy is that ****.
