Thanks for the nice words. I do believe the Verizon Center rocks and is one of the loudest and best buildings in the league because we have a crazed, proud and loyal fan base.

As an aside, I was in Philadelphia today with family. We went to see the Liberty Bell and while standing and taking a photo, two Flyers fans approached me wearing their Flyers jerseys and introduced themselves. We talked about our rivalry; last year’s playoff series; the season so far; and then we shook hands and went our separate ways. Thanks guys. You were very classy.

Also, Philadelphia is rocking the red this weekend, Phillies red that is. There is a huge fountain near the museums and they were running RED WATER through the fountain. Many buildings were displaying red lights and there were red flags everywhere.
