Phillies-Yankees, Eagles-Giants, Rocky-Liberty. It’s been all Philadelphia vs. New York since the World Series teams were decided. Both cities are known for having live-and-die fans that can be just as hard on their own team as they are on the opponents. Jason Jones and John Oliver of The Daily Show take a look at Philly and NY fans with “Clash of the Cretins.” The video breakdown at 3:55 is classic. Men and women, young and old, it is game time son.

And the winner is.. Philadelphia. Of course it is. The Daily Show is based in NYC. I thought it was a tie but I’m only looking at the highlights and didn’t get to see the douchery firsthand.

The Chicago Cubs are continuing their 100 years of World Series solitude, and are taking the appropriate amount of crap for their effort. The Daily Show with Jon Stewart broke out a pie chart that shows Chicago Cubs fans are stupid.

Hey Cubs fans.. There’s still a silver lining here. At least you’re not Red Sox or Yankees fans. Granted, would’ve seen your team win a championship in your lifetime, but you’d also be labeled a Fucktard or a Douchenozzle.

JS: Alex Rodriguez opted out of his Yankees contract, he’s a third baseman, they say ‘maybe the Mets will go after him’.. You’re the Mets third baseman.. Do you call them up and go “heeellooooo”?

DW: You know, just seeing the way that Boston celebrated, seeing the winners of World Series, first and foremost I wanna win, so am I saying that I would change positions for a guy like Alex Rodriguez? If the front office called me and said ‘hey look, we wanna make this team better and you’re involved’, I would absolutely wanna sit down and listen, but for right now I am the third baseman of the New York Mets, and I’m going into the 2008 season prepared to be third baseman of the Mets.

JS: What if they call you and they say ‘hey what about Jon Stewart maybe playing third base?’?

DW: I’m all in.

JS: You’re all in for that?.?

DW: I’m all in.

JS: I say no A-Rod and I’ll tell you why. He seems like bad medicine. He seems like a very good player, but when he gets on the team, it’s like he weakens the team. He’s like the Dick Cheney of baseball… In that he… nobody seems to like what he’s doing.. And by the way you don’t have to comment on that.

DW: (Laughing) Does he watch the show?

JS: No. He definitely doesn’t… But no, it seems like he’s a bad chemistry guy, and chemistry’s important, is it not?

DW: 52 home runs are important too, last time I checked.

JS: That could be a lot of chemistry, ok, I see what you’re saying.

I never thought of Alex Rodriguez as the Dick Cheney of baseball. He’s not even the dick of baseball as long as Barry’s still playing… If I compared A-Rod to a politician, I would go with Al Gore. They’re both rich, they put up statistics that you can’t ignore, and neither has reached their ultimate goal. I could keep going with the similarities, but I wanted to bring up the only difference I found. Alex likes the she-male, muscular type of stripper, Al Gore does not. Or does he?..
