Philly Fans More Upset With Phillies And Flyers, Than Winless Sixers

By Andrew Porter

PHILADELPHIA (CBS) --- The Sixers are 0-17, but they are not the most upsetting franchise in Philadelphia. In fact, they aren't even the second-most upsetting franchise.

On Tuesday, the 94WIP Morning Show Audio Roadshow Poll asked fans which Philadelphia losing sports team is the most upsetting: Flyers, Sixers, or Phillies. Only 7% chose the Sixers, while 63% chose the Phillies.

While many fans are embarrassed by the Sixers, who are just one loss away from the tying the worst start in NBA history, some understand the direction of the franchise.

On the flip side, the Flyers have lost eight of their last nine games and have zero energy surrounding them, while the Phillies are amidst a constant decline with an aging core and no help on the horizon.

One thing we all can agree on is, thank God for the Eagles.
