Chris Christie Calls Eagles Fans ‘Generally Angry, Awful People'

"Now Eagles fans I can understand it from a little more because the Eagles do suck and they've sucked for a long time. And their fans are generally angry, awful people."

When he's not battling bridge scandals, getting kicked off trainsfalling out of chairs, making trips to McDonald's for Donald Trump, or eating M&M's, New Jersey Governor Chris Christie sure seems to be fond of insulting Philadelphia Eagles fans.

Christie was at it again Wednesday morning when he spoke with the Boomer and Carton show up on New York's WFAN.

Christie is a well-documented Dallas Cowboys fan and again discussed his fandom and why people seem to care about it.

And in case you needed a reminder, the Cowboys' season is currently over and they didn't even win a single playoff game. Sad!

"I understand why people are interested if you are a public figure, as to who you root for," Christie said. "They're interested. But the hostility, I will tell you that I take for being a Cowboys fan - and this is what I say to Giants fans all the time, and Eagles fans. Now Eagles fans I can understand it from a little more because the Eagles do suck and they've sucked for a long time. And their fans are generally angry, awful people."

He then goes on to say he's not a front runner for liking the Cowboys because they've been far less successful over the last ten years than the New York Giants. Mostly true.
