The Philly media is not Philly fans. The media ripped McNabb constantly, because the Philly media are a bunch of tools. McNabb was beloved by many...in fact, I've seen people wearing McNabb redskins jerseys...one fan actually wore one to Eagles training camp.
Sure, there were those who disliked McNabb. Critics point to his performances in Championship games (puking in the super bowl), his often inconsistent passing, and so on.
Personally, I realize what McNabb meant to the team and wore my McNabb jersey with pride every season. I wish we could have kept him, but it was time to go in a different direction. The organization made their decision which was quite similar to the Aaron Rogers/Bret Favre thing in Green Bay. Kolb had been waiting for 3 years...time to see what he can do.
I bet you'd find a high % of Eagles fans who really liked McNabb...that just doesn't make ESPN headlines. Negative public perception is a lot more memorable. Grats, you gave in to the hype.

The same thing I have against the Patriots: their fans.
Cool, so the actions of a few dictate how you feel about the entire organization and all fans of it. I've never thrown a punch, been thrown out of a game, cussed out an opposing fan, poured beer on anyone, or whatever ridiculous things some fans do. But w/e, if you want to generalize and stereotype, I can't blame you...it's faster.
