It makes Virginia Montanez sick to admit it: Her heart was a little bit warmed Sunday night when she saw Philadelphia fans climbing on greased-up poles after the Eagles won the NFC championship.
Montanez, 43, is a lifelong Steelers fan and avowed Philadelphia hater. But come the Super Bowl, she said she’ll temporarily be a Birds fan, even though, as she put it, Pittsburgh typically hates the Eagles “like they personally said bad things about our moms.”
But, here’s the thing: The Steel City hates the Patriots — “they are Satan’s team and they are cheaters and they are never ever called for holding” — a lot more.
