That is pretty offensive to gay people. The vast majority of them have class.
 
2012-01-17 12:28:32 AM
This coming from a New Jersey-ite? That's like Satan saying that Saddam Hussein was a bad guy.

FTA: Mainor apologized,and said he only wrote half of it.


A NJ city official actually admitting to being a half-wit? Amazing!

So they forgot a space, so what? It was probably just a typo.

Shoulda called them the Philadelphia Spreadeagles.
 
2012-01-17 03:42:55 AM
Philadelphia. Brotherly love. OooooKay....

When are public figures ever going to learn that they need to watch what they post on the Internet?

You talk like a gaybird, and your shiat's all retarded.

Ahh, the land of the progressives where freedom of speech, freedom of expression, and freedom of thought only apply to a select few. In reality the original founders of the Nazi party were a bunch of fudge packers themselves, so no wonder modern progressives also are so quick to get their panties in wad.

I love when sports fans use "we" when referring to their favorite team.
 
2012-01-17 06:33:22 AM
Although he does make a good point...I, too, am a Giants fan, yet I am not a gaybird or a cowgirl.

smedrick: I love when sports fans use "we" when referring to their favorite team.

My favorite is when they use "we" when referring to their political party or their government.

gaybirds can't pick up dogs and slam them to the ground and electrocute them and tie them to rape stands.
They don't also singlehandedly blow an undefeated season and a Superbowl for their former team.
 
2012-01-17 06:39:20 AM
That is an insult to gaybirds.
 
2012-01-17 07:58:25 AM
My parents always told me to act like an adult.

Now that I'm an adult, I see that everyone acts like children anyway.
 
2012-01-17 08:10:23 AM
I was hoping to find out whether it's a Sports Gay Bar or a Gay Sports Bar that shows these football teams. The only hope is a photoshop from Iran.

The iggles? Still staring at that empty trophy case.

If it wasn't for manufactured outrage some people would have no outrage at all.
 
2012-01-17 08:22:21 AM
Sooooo.....are we saying the Eagles aren't gaybirds?
 
2012-01-17 08:40:36 AM
Not for nothing, but I know a LOT of Giants fans that refer to the Cowboys as "Cowgirls", so I'll give him a pass on that one. I must say, "gaybirds" is new to me, although all Giants fans I know also loathe the Eagles as well, so I can't imagine this is THAT uncommon. It was in poor taste for a public official to make a statement like that, but honestly, the Giants fan in him took over, I can understand.
 
2012-01-17 08:45:08 AM
Getting upset about a word like that serves only as an example of why people refer to the weak as "gay".

It's not a motto. That's what "Philadelphia" translates to in English.
 
2012-01-17 08:50:02 AM
That's why as a public official I post anonymously on Fark. And they are the Cowgirls.
 
2012-01-17 09:04:26 AM
Political correctness gone to far. This makes the news why?
 
2012-01-17 09:16:19 AM
See, it used to be that Gay meant light hearted and free. It was an insult in certain instances then, and that is still pretty much what people mean when they use it against someone that should be rough and tumble(also applicable to some homosexuals, nowadays).

When you adopt a word that comes with negative connotations, don't be surprised to find yourself tangled up in the insults. Maybe you shouldn't assume everything is about you. You know what they say about assume-ing, NTTATWWT.
 
2012-01-17 09:16:38 AM
NTTAWWT. Oh, wait...

Yeah, gaybirds is new to me too. I've always heard them referred to as the Dirty Birds. This term can also pertain to the Flyers.

Now do you see why Philadelphia thugs gotta kick some New York ass at Geno's steaks? Gotta prove the 'not a gaybird' thing again and again. (Even if it is a 3 on 1)

/oh wait. was he talking about the football players?
//confused by "we"
///homophobic douchebag is he

FTFA:

...NO WE ARE THE NEW YORK GIANTS."

Actually no. They are the NY Giants. You are a fanboy from Jersey.
 
2012-01-17 10:06:26 AM
I live in Philadelphia and this morning I saw a #1 Celtics fan license plate and was automatically tempted to write douchebag on their car so I can't really say anything.

He still sounds bitter about DeSean's punt return.

The Giants are the Jersey team.

If the Packers can claim their pre-Super Bowl titles as championships so can the Eagles. So that trophy case ain't empty.

As for the article, I'm from Philadelphia and went to a college that was about 50-50 when it came to Eagles/Giants fans and I never heard the giants fans use "Gaybirds". Now they mocked our pronunciation of Eagles, which I recognize is indeed warped and we just called them the giants.

Where we both agreed was the following;

Cowboys = cowgirls
Skins = pigs/piggies

I forgot to mention I spent 4 years in Texas and the cowboy fans didn't say "gaybirds" either. So this is a new one

As for the person who said they called us the dirty birds, I thought that was reserved by the falcons fans as a loving nickname for their team (when they went to the Super Bowl in the 90s(?))
 
2012-01-17 11:11:19 AM
Oh, is this where people get butthurt when fans call the team "we"?

So stupid. My money goes towards the teams and my support goes towards the teams, I'm calling them we. Suck on that.

As a Jersey City resident, I'll gladly buy this guy a beer at Iron Monkey whenever he wants.

grow up fanboy
 
2012-01-17 11:38:40 AM
What makes it even more pathetic with the fans that use "WE" is that as soon as the team loses a game it becomes "THEY."

"A lot of people were really hurt"

Maybe one day with hours of intensive therapy these people will be able to lead productive lives. Good luck to them

cry more.

As someone is is very pro gay/women's right I have to respond with a giant "meh"

It's football. Not politics.
 
2012-01-17 01:13:05 PM
The detective needs to be fired and the assemblyman impeached. How DARE they insult the gay community by comparing them to the Philadelphia Eagles! Not cool! >:-(

I pay to watch all of Natalie Portman's movies and I make sure she's safe in her bedroom from the bushes outside her house and I buy all her used panties, but I still don't say "we" won an Academy Award.

No. Redskins = Foreskins

The name "Giants" just doesn't lend itself to any funny twists.

Referring to other posts, New Yawkers may make fun of the way Philadelphians say "Iggles" but that's OK, they can keep on rootin' for their "Gints".

The guy who beat the Rangers fan is from New Jersey.
