BUT I WILL INSIST THAT WE ONLY BOOED MICHAEL IRVIN UNTIL IT WAS CLEAR HE WASN'T GETTING UP:  Philadelphia Flyers fans booed an anti-cancer ad during last night's game because it featured players from rival teams.  Or because we're pro-cancer.

    I didn't realize that Philadelphia fans needed a reason to boo.

    What, the penguins are more anti cancer than we are? Bobby Clarke had diabetes!

    This is what I have read about this article on blogs:

    "This is a lie. I was at the game. A video came on and said “This is Sidney Crosby” and that’s when fans booed. Then came Toews and Miller and no one booed during them. Then when it was clear it was an anti-cancer message no one was booing."

    But, hey, if it gives people an opportunity to talk about how awful and mean Philly sports fans are, the opportunity will be taken, regardless of merit.
