Jimmy Rollins seems to have transitioned into one of those athletes who can make news simply by opening his mouth.
The latest example came yesterday, when Rollins offered his view on Philadelphia's notorious sports fans during yesterday's taping of Fox Sports' "Best Damn Sports Show Period."
After being asked whether Philadelphia was as tough a place to play as the national media sometimes portrays, Rollins answered:
"There are times," he said. "I might catch some flak for saying this, but, you know, they're front-runners. When you're doing good, they're on your side. When you're doing bad, they're completely against you."
