Governor Rendell Makes Good On His Super Bowl Bet...
This picture just makes me want to weep...
Aaron McKie couldn't help saying something to Pennsylvania Gov. Ed Rendell.
"I asked him, 'Why are you wearing that [Patriots] jersey,' " McKie said. " 'It doesn't look right.'"
But a bet is a bet, so since the Patriots beat the Eagles in the Super Bowl, Rendell - with plenty of help from wife Midge, an accomplished vocalist - had to sing the national anthem before Sunday's Sixers-Celtics game while wearing a Patriots jersey.
Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney, who would have had to sing the anthem at a Sixers-Celtics game in Philadelphia, introduced Rendell to a supportive FleetCenter crowd.
"It may not be that great, but it comes from the heart," said Romney, who also sported a blue Patriots jersey.
"I thought Gov. Romney loved his people," said a smiling Rendell, who regularly serves as a studio analyst on Philadelphia TV after Eagles games. "To inflict my voice on them is cruel."
I can't stand the idea that a sanctimonious dickface like Mitt Romney got this kind of satisfaction from Big Ed. Yuck...
See you jerks next year...
P.S. The Sixers beat the Celtics 97-93 and got to within 3 games of the lead in the Atlantic division...
