If you get there early go to Delessandro's ..  Cheesesteak, extra mayo, no whiz.    Bacon cheese fries.     Go to a quiet corner while your heart and body recovers from the nirvanna of eating away 2 days of your life.

 

Stay in well lit areas.

 

Any ball headed white dudes with jeremiah trotter, jerome brown or brian dawkins jersey... don't talk sh#$% unless you are ready to fight.  Especially after 7pm.

 

Don't eat anything, anywhere with Carolina gear on after a Philly loss.  Dead serious about this one.

 

If you get cornered, and are outnumbered say that you had the wear the Carolina stuff on a dare and Donovan McNabb sucks.

Wut?

 

Gas station sushi? Go to an aquarium in one of the most historical cities in America? Looks like Raleigh? Are you confusing Philly with Cleveland?

 

Philly sushi sucks. The liberty bell is tiny and overcrowded with tourists. The aquarium is much more interesting than any of the history there (unless you are a Revolutionary Way buff, which I ain't). And it's a city full of 2-lane streets. Just saying, people act like it's a metropolitan super-center, but it's definitely got a small town vibe.

alright so philly is pretty massive and spread out but has a neighborhood vibe even in parts of center city.

 

a couple places id research or look into. talk to locals.

 

northern liberties has become more gentrified. you'll find more salt of the earth type of philadelphians here as well as south philly. artists have moved into this area as well. some cool bars

 

fishtown pbr drinkers/hipsters/artists. i think i went here once not that memorable i was really drunk though but i heard its up and coming

 

center city/washington square west (the gayborhood) historic poo and the gayborhood is pretty cool. really nice area.

 

west philly is more the college ish

 

south philly and the italian market

 

like others have said stay away from pats and genos they're right across the street from each other. overrated and pat is a fuging dickhead.

 

old city has more of the pricey restaurants if you wanna wine and dine. there's a strip of bars  that lead up to old city i cant remember the name but the bar scene was fuging incredible. and it was on a cobblestones street. south street bar strip in south philly also 

 

Don't be afraid to walk alone. I mean you may get mugged but you may not. I walked by myself a ton up to northern liberties for concerts from center city some stuff felt sketchy but nothing ever happened. i would just stay away from the subway. a lot of stuff is overblown but you can sense if you are about to be on a bad street and to stay away.  i'm not good with names of restaurants or bars because i went to so many it was all a blur for the most part. i just remember enjoying my times in northern liberties, washington square west, center city and south philly the most.

 

philly is weird. you have some absolutely amazing parts and parts that look like a nuclear bomb went off. And be careful not to get sucked into going across the bridge into camden off martin luther king blvd. camden is the scariest place on earth. i'm guessing you are not going to be driving though

 

where are you staying?

      Well, the Niners just doomed themselves to mediocrity

      Um, no, just no. Bills, Chiefs, Chargers, Ravens, Bengals, Texans, Eagles, Commanders are 8 teams that it's not even a debate, they aren't trading their QB for Purdy. Patriots, Broncos, Titans, Giants, Bears, Vikings, Falcons are 7 more teams with QBs drafted in the last 2 years that also would rather stick with them than trade for Purdy as they all have more upside than he does. Lions, Packers, Cowboys, Bucs are 4 more that would likely keep their QB's as well, age aside for Goff, Dak, and Baker. Panthers and Colts are two teams in the same situation, QB's who have both struggled and shown flashes to where the teams probably stick with them because they drafted them, but in a re-draft of all QB's, they probably take Purdy over the guy they currently have. Jags, Cardinals, Dolphins, are 3 more with QB's who probably have a higher upside than Purdy but come with their own question marks, so debatable if they'd take Purdy over who they already have. That leaves Jets, Raiders, Steelers, Browns, Saints, Seahawks, and Rams. Rams would take him over Stafford for the future of course, but not for 2025, and I'd think the Seahawks would take him over Darnold, but honestly not sure if they would take him over Milroe at this moment as they really like his potential and have him for 4 years really cheap. That leaves 5 teams that I see who would absolutely take him over their current situation right now, and a handful of others who MIGHT take him over their current guy, a far cry from your 20.

      The Bryce Trade is Finally Complete. Who Won the Trade? Panthers vs Bears

      By ForJimmy · Posted

      Agreed. Also as soon as they received the top pick in the next draft it was over. Bears won that trade. Gave up a top overall pick got one the next year plus pick 9, a couple 2nds, and DJ Moore a proven young WR. Had their 2024 pick from us be in the late teens or later it would be more debatable IMO.

      Option A:  Pay your starting QB starting QB money. Option B:  Look for a starting QB for 4-10 years (or longer) while wasting the talent at every other position.    How many of the top 20 QB's do you think are worth what they are being paid?   When you factor in the last year of his present deal his contract is really an average of 45 million per year which in today's QB market is a very, very good deal. I wish we'd had found a Brock Purdy to pay 50+ million a year right after we parted ways with Cam.  Ya'll go ahead and live in fairy tale land where good to great (much less elite) QB's are available to pay. Just the fact that they had the chance to pay Brock after the disaster of trading up for Lance is a testament that when you find a quarter back you can win with, complete in the playoffs and superbowls with, you pay him.
