Philadelphia is the ‘Best Sports Town in America’
Philadelphia sports are hot right now. The Eagles are 8-0 for the first time in franchise history. The Phillies are in the World Series.
Things are wild, in a good way. So much so that a certain Philly sports guy is calling Philadelphia “the best sports town in America.”
Eagles head coach Nick Sirianni is that guy. In a recent press conference, he called the city “the best sports town in America.” This was actually even before the Thursday Night Football victory that made the Eagles 8-0. It’s only his second year being head coach of the Eagles, but he knows what’s up. Check out photos from the most recent Eagles win below!
