I just had higher expectations for our City. I guess I blog about too many events and parties where people have a good time and they don't set fire to anything.

The truth is – as bad as it was, it’s not going to overshadow the Big Story of a championship. That’s where the ratings are — in all forms of media.

Police deployed riot police around Broad and Walnut about 15-20 minutes after I told my friend, "We're not sticking around to see if he can actually take down that traffic light." But it could have been considerably worse and the majority of folks out there were spreading a positive vibe.I got some pics, most of them aren't all that good, I'll see if I can post them up in a bit. Time to learn about Picasa I guess. News reported the luggage store looting, and the overturned cars (and you can infer a lot of Broad St. around City Hall was trashed up).

And Broad Street joy and the agony of defeat. Seems to be a news blackout of what I saw. UGLY!! The press conference is at the stadium, which is a great place, not so much for me.
