You can take the boy out of Philly but not the Philly out of the boy. It shapes my world view. It was a great place to grow up.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
There's a certain level of realness in Philly. You know, just - people are people. You know, it doesn't matter who you are or who you think you are, you're just a person in Philly.
Philly is a city made up of many neighborhoods - more than a hundred, in fact - and the citizens can be very territorial.
Philly has always been one of our favorite towns to play in, and the fans have been very loyal and very supportive over the years.
I love the dignity in the name Philadelphia, but at heart, we're Philly.
I think Philly is arguably the best sports town - football town - in America.
On the whole, I'd rather be in Philidelphia.
Philly gave me my ambition and drive to get more. It's a reminder to stay on top of my game. That's not a place I want to go back to.
People in Philadelphia are a world apart from New York. They're very different from people in the New York scene. The New York scene wants your visibility and wants your money.
As a youngster, I lived in Philly for 12 years, and I would go up to New York to do shows and make money - it was the dream to maybe be able to survive there and live there.
You can take the boy out of the Midwest, but you can't take the Midwest out of the boy.
