I grew up a Milwaukee Bucks fan, and you were our BANE in the late 70s.
My favorite Philly team was always the Flyers, but they've become pussified under Hitchcock. Lots of regular season wins for that club year after year ... but they never had that Roy, Brodeur, Hasek type superstar netminder since awesome Bernie and Pelle's car crash. Hextall was just a notch below. THAT'S the team I'd be heartbroken over if I lived there.

I have been a diehard Flyers fan since the early '70s (when Clarke and the Fog arrived and Bernie came back). They have been difficult to watch since Mike Keenan left, and you are right, they are pussified these days, but that started with Terry Murray.
By the way, I was at the Saturday afternoon game when Bernie took Jimmy Watson's stick in the eye. That was the end for Bernie's career.
