Gresh & Zo: Philly Columnist Calls Boston Fans Racist

Kevin Garnett said Philadelphia fans were "fair-weather" and Philly.com writer John Mitchell responded on Tuesday night with a blog entry titled "'Fair-weathered' beats bigoted any day."

Gresh & Zo first discussed the comment made by Garnett jabbing at Philly fans. Gresh doesn't agree with the timing of Garnett's comment. Why did he feel the need to incite that fan base?

"I don't think it's smart to do the whole call to action from the opponent when you're rolling into that place because you're going to get car batteries thrown...car batteries, you're going to get batteries thrown at you. Hell you could have car parts thrown at you it is Philadelphia. There was no need to set them off like that."
