Sons of Ben or SOBs
I just wanted to make this posting at how horrible the Philadelphia fans (mind you they have no team) were at the game. They sat in the Revs supporter section and yet they were not cheering for the Revs. They kept on cheering for Philadelphia and the last I checked they do not have a team in the league. Also some of them were wearing orange shirts and took of their baby blue shirts to reveal them. This absolutely showed total disrespect and if they ever get the chance to get a team (I hope not for some time) I will make sure to re-pay them.

i completely agree. i love the city, my grandparents live there, and i was in favor of a team, but after today's showing, i have firmly reversed my thinking. how do people who don't even have a team try to yell at uss when they have no team th feel joy of pain for.
tossing bottles isn't what MLS is about. they are a wannabe english firm.
ps. GO ST. LOUIS

Re: Sons of Ben or SOBs
I wasnt at the game, but this is why Phily should have a team. Phily teams and their insane fans are good for sports and rivalries.

rivalry is one thing, but when they are throwing plastic bottles at us and being a second away from a fight, that is something i cannot support.

Re: Sons of Ben or SOBs
like I said, wasnt there, but every group has it's bad apples. I meant in general, Philly has great east coast style passionate fans. I want them in the league.

Re: Sons of Ben or SOBs
I'm sorry that today was your first impression of us. To explain the bottles...our folks didn't start it...at least from where I was standing and according to a couple of videos my guys have posted. We had purchased those 5 rows well in advance when DC was selling tickets to all groups and certainly didn't purposefully end up in the middle of your impressive travelling support.
I have much respect for Monty and you guys and am dissappointed that some good natured piss taking by both sides turned ugly near the end.

Re: Sons of Ben or SOBs
Sounds like you're a nice guy and your colors are pretty but your group's classless self promotion and vocal support for the opposing team while in our section will not be forgotten.
SOBs indeed.
