2018 Flyers: They'll Still Suck

[Munson]

I mean, in today's world....if the Phanatic had been introduced today without the history behind him...they'd probably get dragged on social media for that too.

The Gritty marketing plan

Introduce Gritty
Gritty is reviled
Gritty becomes ironically liked
People realize that after ironically liking Gritty so much, they actually like Gritty now
Gritty becomes most popular figure in Philadelphia sports history

This in a nutshell. Also other teams/cities/fans are ripping on him which just makes our fans like him more.

[General_Failure]

Introduce his love interest Gritina.

[QB Eagles]

And his side piece Gashy.

[General_Failure]

At least they didn't go with Puck.

this is sad and pathetic but it's typical flyer fan stepford thinking...basically trumpian to like something so beyond hideous just because it's on your team...hip hop and Lil g got run out of town and so should this atrocity

the lead is being buried here because the mascot is so bad but what's most embarrassing is that s classic franchise like the flyers felt the need to get a mascot at all

also flyer fans are not MY fans

[SD]

I ❤️ Gritty

Wait, so IGY is espousing a contrarian view?

[ice grillin you]

wait its contrarian to be against a hideous disgusting mascot that is being defended by about 20 thousand members of possibly the most stepford fanbase in sports and no one else

if you asked me two months ago should the flyers get a dope mascot i would have said go to hell...its rock bottom for what is normally a super proud franchise...

but it was kind of predictable that shtein like this would happen once ed snider passed

[Geowhizzer]

I am fully with Igy on this one.  That... thing is a disgrace.

[ice grillin you]

if the mascot has done anything its at least showed us that romey doesnt know what the word contrarian means

[MDS]

id rather not win the cup with gritty than win the cup without him

[SD]

Wait, so IGY is espousing a contrarian view?

I admit to being partial and contrarian in my Gritty views because other people don't like him.

[Rome]

I'd gladly sacrifice every one of you for a Stanley Cup win.

And trust me, Havas, I know what the word means. 

Since you don't, here...


"Opposing or rejecting popular opinion; going against current practice."

Sure sounds like you.

Wait, so IGY is espousing a contrarian view?

I admit to being partial and contrarian in my Gritty views because other people don't like him.

I like him because he's weird and creepy.  I don't care what hard core superfans like IGY think.
