Attacking Mike Breen, Thinking The Knicks Media Guide Is Cheating - The Sixers Crybaby Fans Have Reached A New Level Of Pathetic

I thought I've seen it all with Sixers fans after growing up around them. I moved to Pennsylvania at a young age, surrounded by Sixers fans because I grew up outside of Philadelphia. That's right OUTSIDE, unlike those dorks from Lancaster, Reading, York, etc that want to claim they are from Philadelphia. Nope, we're an hour-plus away. But, naturally, there's a ton of Sixers fans around us so I'm pretty numb when it comes to Philadelphia fans. I know them all too well and somehow consider a handful of them close friends. 

But this? This is a new level of pathetic, I didn't know we could reach. All I've seen from their fanbase is crying and excuses for being down 2-0 going into tonight's game. We're here thinking Mike Breen is changing calls by ... doing his job. MIKE BREEN! The guy is a pro's pro. There's a reason he only has six double bangs in his broadcasting career and that's because he knows what to do. He's elite at calling basketball games. But, sure, him asking if it's a personal foul and a technical or separate is the reason the Knicks are up 2-0. If Mike Breen could influence calls, the Knicks would not have been a losing franchise for decades. 

Then there's the whole media guide thing. The Knicks have been putting in refs stats for the media guide during the playoffs. Let's get one thing straight right away. This is all public information. You can find it, your grandma can find it. Anyone can find it! Putting it in the media guide isn't anything. It's just added information in a world where we live for stats. We want to know everything from analytics to basic points per game. Guess what? You could put the refs home address in the media guide and they won't change a call. 

Honestly, it's just sad at this point. Philly fans are supposed to be scumbags. They are supposed to be mean and fuck the world besides everyone. Now they are just making excuses. It's something I see out of Cincinnati fans mostly. The league is out to get the Bengals. Philly turns that into real motivation, or at least that's what they want you to think. Instead they are crying. Embiid is crying that they are the better team and should be up 2-0. Jordie is crying that people are making fun of the Sixers. Max is crying because Max cries. Take a note from a man who brought a Philadelphia area school a trophy.
