Rams Star With Pennsylvania Ribbon Tears Eagles Fans: ‘I Hate Eagles Fans’

Philadelphia Eagles fans may have just gotten some extra ammunition to cheer against the Los Angeles Rams on Sunday afternoon.

The Eagles welcome the Rams to town on Sunday in the divisional round of the National Football League playoffs. Philadelphia swept the Green Bay Packers in the Wild Card round, and the Rams took down the Minnesota Vikings in impressive fashion.

Philadelphia is No. 2 seed remaining in the NFC, while the Rams are the no. 4 seeds. It should be a pretty exciting matchup this weekend, and maybe just added a little more fuel to the fire. Rams Pro Bowler and rookie Jared Verse has some ties to the area and opened up about his feelings on Eagles fans to the Los Angeles Times’ Gary Klein.

“I hate Eagles fans,” Verse said. “They’re so annoying. I hate Eagles fans…I didn’t even do anything to them. It was my first time playing. Oh, I hate Eagles fans…When I see the green and white, I hate it. I’m actually getting upset. Like I’m actually getting hot.”

There’s really no sugar-coating it, he can handle his feelings. He was born in Dayton, Ohio, but played his high school football in Pennsylvania at Central Columbia High School.

Lincoln Financial Field was already due on Sunday when these two teams clash, but it wouldn’t be shocking if it got a little louder now.
