The Philadelphia Phillies have the most loyal fans in Major League Baseball, surpassing the New York Yankees and Boston Red Sox, a survey found.

The Yankees were second on the baseball index for the second straight year. The Red Sox, No. 1 the previous two years, fell to third. The New York Mets, who fired their manager and general manager after a 79-83 season, tied with the Washington Nationals for 23rd among the 30 major league teams.

Well, that's because Bernie Madoff dragged the broader average down.

Brand Keys... "loyalty?" You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.

Ed Rendell apparently has a lot of free time to write a lengthy defense of Philadelphia's fans.

Jets fans boo their team's draft selection not only 1 year, but every year. The national and New York press never mention that.

Then how would you know? Do you attend the draft every year?

Re: 23?

Booing Blair Thomas, Roger Vick, Browning Nagle, Johnny Mitchell and Anthony Becht wasn't shitty. It was prescient.

I watched the draft fairly closely for a good while in the late nineties/early aughts. IIRC, Jets fans didn't boo Shaun Ellis, Pennington, John Abraham, Sanchez, or Revis.
