Birds aren't allowed to mess with cats. Every time I find a dead blue jay I'm happy because all a blue jay does all day is fly around squawking at the cats. I know they had to be a satisfying lunch. Go build your nest somewhere else bird-brains.

Hooray, Blue Jays!! (not sure if you're a fan but i'm very happy for Canadians today)

They know when you are talking about them!

It's like this talk about blue jays cursed me! Today the jays are out in force and they've commandeered all three feeding areas. When I first noticed the unusual activity, I thought I saw a new blue woodpecker because it was hopping around the tree and pecking like one, but when it came around, it was a blue jay, eating all the woodpecker suet I'd shoved into knotholes around the tree.
They are currently dive bombing the cardinals on the feeders they are too big to perch on. I put out special feed just for the jays and they've been decent all through winter until now!!

Tell me about it. I was watching a blue jay by the fence eating bugs I thought. I go over and it's a nest of garter snakes, little babies. I had no idea blue jays ate snakes.

It's good to see the Blue Jay playing nice. They can be quite the asshole of the backyard bird group.

How is that better than Blue Jays, Marlins or even White Sox?

Yeah White Sox & Red Sox are weird, and being a small blue bird doesn't sound that exciting, but if you don't think a marlin is more badass than a carp you're crazy.

>> ^EmptyFriend:

good catch and all.... but their team name is the Carp? seriously?

@Sigh

Wouldn't stick to a blue jays fan?

Are you serious?

All jays fans HAVE is goddamn loyalty.

It's not like we go to games and expect our team to win.

While I agree with the cheese steak comment, I have to choose your first option. Between hanging a dalass cowboys fan over the upper deck, throwing snowballs at Santa, D-sized batteries at JD Drew (again at a Phillies game) distractions in a game are fine by most of us. You may have great fans up there in Toronto, but they are not Philly fans. So yes, people do enjoy the baseball, but they also enjoy the shenanigans that seem to encompass going to a sporting event in Philadelphia.

If some kid wants to run around on a field to eventually get tazed down by some pathetic fat fuck of a cop, I'll cheer for the kid, just like the fans in the video. He wasted a few minutes of the game to give people extra enjoyment, at great cost to himself. The fines you get for these acts are not cheap. Most times the kid tires out or runs off the field himself, the game continues. Apparently the fat fuck of a rent-a-cop didn't get that memo. This wouldn't even make the news most night except of the idiot cop.

I don't know about a magical telepathic connection, but I do know there's an etiquette surrounding these events. I bet that rent-a-cop doesn't work another sporting event here for his own safety. I'd explain fan loyalty to you, but obviously it wouldn't stick to a Blue Jays fan.

"In my opinion, this was somewhat deserved anyway. If I were at a Jays game and some dumb kid started to run on the field and disrupt the game, I'd be upset. Maybe this'll serve as a type of warning to other idiots thinking about doing the same thing."
You know nothing of us Philadelphia fans, and if you are one you should be ashamed for your idiotic remarks.

Fine, fixed it for you with my own team. What's the fucking difference? I paid to see a baseball game, not some young kid showboating. I have been to a phillys game when I was down in Philadelphia, the people around me seemed to enjoy the actual baseball too.
Is there some kind of magical telepathic connection that everybody gets once they're a phillys fan that makes it so they all prefer to see some idiot on the field then watch the game? Or are they just the same kinds of fans that the rest of the baseball teams have except with really fucking good cheesesteaks in their stadium.
my vote is on the latter.

I know how much this feeling rocks, especially when a hit like that wins you the whole World Series. Ah, 1993 Blue Jays, I miss you.

I blame the strike for ruining everything.

Anyway, congrats Tigers.
