Daily News | The Bostons are coming, and Philly is wicked chapped
If you hate sports’ devolution into analytics, then blame Boston, whereand where Sixers president of basketball operations Daryl Morey presides over its annual pilgrimage, the Sloan conference at MIT. If you go, carry breath mints. To hand out.
But Boston has the curious distinction of producing not only the most despised basketball team in NBA history but also the most hated football franchise, coach , and quarterback . I’m not a native of the Philadelphia region, so that gives me a measure of objectivity unusual for a Philly writer. That is, as objective as someone can be who grew up worshiping Julius Erving and loathing Larry Bird.What this wry and mirthless seaside city boasts in brains and titles it lacks in presentation, infrastructure, and food.
But then, what can you expect from a region that considers L.L. Bean its barometer of fashion and whose men wear this wicked cool uniform: work boots, backward Red Sox cap, and dungaree shorts . Granted, most of those Southies take their hats off at church weddings. But only after the processional.
