Not too long ago most of us would have read this, looked at the date, and had a good chuckle.

Geez, you do it for one team that has a decent season, like say lacrosse last spring, and pretty soon you have to do it for every team that does okay. Slippery slope.phillysportsfan

Seriously: You could look at it from the positive side, not "hey, it's about time," but "this is awesome, I'm glad they're doing it, it's better for our sense of community than those chain link fences across the gorge."
