The fugly went on for 168 pages of name-calling, during which people's mommas, girlfriends, and IQs were slandered.

"What does philly have to offer?," commented Classless. "Fat guys in Guinni T's slopping cheez wiz covered steaks all over themselves as their chest spaghetti and gold madalian's (sic) shine in the sun. C'mon man let's be serious here for a second. You are the Arm Pit of the East Coast. Nothing good comes out of Philly, or lives in Philly. Place is a dump.''

But NY=Toilet was having none of it.

"There I was…taking my morning constitutional and what do I see; a NY Post on the bathroom floor. Its funny…that's the only place I have ever seen the NY Post outside of the newsstands. Not knowing what that paper was soaking up, I waited to go online.…I had no idea New York had such an inferiority complex when it came to Philadelphia."

That's not quite how Chitowncat saw things: "What a horrible place to live. Just nasty…desperadoes. Taking up space on the the planet. Their city s*cks, their food s*cks. A-Rod, win, and with bonus money donate a few treadmills! "

And though his moniker suggested he was from another city, Chitowncat was prolific in his insults against Philadelphians. When Betty Cunicelli wrote that "the Best team in the world, the PHILADELPHIA PHILLIES, are going to twist the NY Yankees around like a Philadelphia pretzel,'' you could practically feel the spittle from his, "Pretzel…that's all ya got? lame. gotta come on a NY website to be noticed. LOSER. IN LIFE…YIKES, TREADMILL, PLEASE. ANOTHER, CHEESE STEAK FOR THE FAT BETTY.

To which ChokeArtists09 responded, "The women of NY have more facial hair than Jason Werth and Eric Bruntlett combined."

And phillyrunsNYC lectured, "The Philly philosophy is to treat people with respect unless they disrespect you. Once they get out of line they get dealt with. That's the difference between Philly and Noo Yawk. In Noo Yawk you can go around talking trash and then if someone says something you don't like you run home and cry to mommy about it."

At the crux of the verbal slam-dancing was the smug superiority of New Yorkers and the scrappy earnestness of Philadelphians. "New York is ALL TALK whereas Philly is AS REAL AS IT GETS," wrote one Philly fan.

"Rocky is a way of life in Philly!,'' wrote dentite11. "Work hard and you will be rewarded, thats how we do it. It's kind of the same as how the new yorkers praise Bernie Madoof. Cheat and you will be rich for a while, then burn in hell.

"The fact of the matter is, the Yankees are BAD for the sport of baseball,'' said Philly4Life. "They are the roided-out version of a team. They throw ridiculous amounts of money at free agents and pretty much buy their championships. They are a tabloid team that feels like a championship ring is more of a fashion statement than an actual accomplishment."

And so it went, with even one Philly fan threatening to bring the Yanks "down like the World Trade Centers!!" (Boo for bad taste in digs!)

Then there was the mock solemness of one Rev. Dudley Doright who admonished New York fans:

"Brothers and sisters, take heed: The Good Book warns us that 'Pride comes before a fall and a haughty spirit before destruction. Please be more humble or else the good Lord my have to teach us a lesson. Be gracious to our visiting friends from Philadelpia. (sic) …Try not to act like the reprobates you are. Repent of your sins. Send the Reverend a generous offering and the Lord may smile on this under-producing, overpaid team that couldn't hit a bull in the butt with a bass fiddle. "

And the Reverend once again spoketh to his virtual flock: "It looks like this thing is going to get out of hand real quick. I'm thinking about getting together with Reverend Al and Jesse and maybe having a "Peace! Love Your Neighbor From Philadelphia Rally." Maybe even contact the Brother President to appoint a Peace Czar to come up and work with us.

"Brothers, we can't let this thing get out of hand because the Good Book says: Be ye kind. Love one another (even if he comes from Philadelphia). We gotta do it on else we're going to stepping in bad karma with every step we take."

But no one commented on the Reverend's words.

Get ready for the battle.
