James Starks ran for 123 yards on 23 carries and had 9 receiving yards on 2 receptions. As we used to say in this town about our football, talkin' proud (kudos to TGR's Chris for originally tweeting it)

Hmmmm, the old Vets stadium roared in approval when Michael Irvin of Dallas went down with a neck injury and was carted off. They were the first stadium to install a court, judge, and jail to handle cases on the spot for all the criminality during football games. I suppose most in here are unfamiliar with the infamous booing and snow ball attack of Santa Claus back in 1968. Here's some more...

1960s Phillies fans threw batteries at their first black ball player during games.

Phillies fans brawled at their ring ceremony game. There was a fight that year in the parking lot where a fan was killed.

Flyers fans brawled with players and coaches of the Blues in 1972.

In the '40s Phillies fans had a 15 minute barrage of glass bottle throwing at the umps.

A slew of other incidents that are comparable to the relatively infrequent amount of incidents in other sports cities.
