Default Pretty Boy can't do it all by himself!

Below is an article regarding a study that was done to find the city with the least attractive people in the U.S. As a New York Giant fan, they didn't have to do a study to find out something that we've known all along.



Looking for attractive people? Don't go to... Mon Oct 22, 10:55 AM ET



PHILADELPHIA (Reuters) - Philadelphia is home to the least attractive people in the United States, a survey of visitors and residents showed on Friday.

The city of more than 1.5 million people was also found to be among the least stylish, least active, least friendly and least worldly, according to the "America's Favorite Cities" survey by Travel & Leisure magazine and CNN Headline News.

About 60,000 people responded to the online survey -- at www.travelandleisure.com -- which ranked 25 cities in categories including shopping, food, culture, and cityscape, said Amy Farley, senior editor at the magazine.

For unattractiveness, Philadelphia just beat out Washington DC and Dallas/Fort Worth for the bottom spot. Miami and San Diego are home to the most attractive people, the poll found.

But Farley pointed out the results don't mean people in Philadelphia are ugly or the city is a bad place to visit.

"We were asking people to vote on attractiveness, not unattractiveness. Travel & Leisure editors believe there are a lot of attractive people in Philadelphia," she said.

"The relative attractiveness of its residents is only a minuscule factor in evaluating a city's merit."

Philadelphians' self-esteem has been undermined by national surveys showing they are among the fattest people in the United States. The American Obesity Association ranked the city in the top 10 for overweight people every year between 2000 and 2005.

And sporting pride in a city known for the fierce loyalty of its fans has been hurt by not having had a national champion in any of its four main sports since the 76ers won the National Basketball Association title in 1983.

I'll have to throw a red flag on Dallas/Ft. Worth being #3....If you've ever been to Texas you'd know why. I'll quote Jerry Jeff Walker...."the friendliest people and the prettiest women I've ever seen."

Default I didn't know it was that bad!

I guess it's all the cheesesteaks that are making the people here fat. I don't know why they are ugly though????? I'm trying Joe. Trying to give this city some flash. Like the Nature Boy Ric Flair, styling & profilin', airplane flying, or something like that. I will have to look at some of my old wrestling tapes. There was an article from one of the conventions a few years ago. And the writer took shots at how the guys were dressed during the convention. I guess he didn't see me there? My presence can be felt at a tourney, but the city of Philly is too big for me to make a difference.

The sports thing is true also. Just a town full of losers. I don't like none of the teams here.

Great find Joe.

PS couldn't your G-men take it easy on my 49ers? Just wait til Alex comes back!!!!!!!!
