The Philadelphia Eagles beat the Houston Texans on Thursday night to improve to 8-0 on the season. After the game general manager Howie Roseman approached some of the assembled Eagles fans, one of whom had a sign that said, “Howie, you are forgiven.” The names Whiteside, Agholor and Reagor were crossed out and AJ Brown was given a hashtag. Roseman’s reaction to the sign was decidedly Philadelphian.
“Wait a minute. I’m f–king forgiven for your first f—ing Super Bowl? F–k you! Let’s f–king go! Let’s go!”
The fans then started chanting “Howie! Howie!” I don’t know if chanting the name of the person who just told you to F off is just a Philadelphia thing, but it certainly seems like it might be.
