Jerry Seinfeld: “I like the Phillies This Year”

Interesting stuff from the Philly Inquirer which will shortly be picked up by the Amazing Apple Insiderized Mets Blog Report Podcast which won’t mention that they wouldn’t have noticed it if I didn’t.

Jerry discussed how the Mets-Phillies “rivalry” seems to have cooled.

“Once my team is out, then I just pick another team. I base it on just watching them play,” he said.

..

“Philly has the greatest food,” he said. “Philly and Chicago are, I think, the best food cities I go to. Somebody will always recommend something I haven’t heard of, some gyros sandwich place or something. And I love doing that.”

Maybe it’s because he’s playing a show this week and wants to make good with the locals. But as we get off the call, Seinfeld signed off with a bit more praise for our team. “I like the Phillies this year. They’re exciting — great energy!” (Via Philly Inquirer)
