Tommy Cutlets talking up North Jersey here:

Tommy DeVito says that Bergen Catholic-Don Bosco games were the most hostile environments he ever played in:

This answer is preposterous. Tommy DeVito played at Michigan, at Nebraska, at Wisconsin, at Florida State, and at Louisville in his college career. He’s played four NFL road games. There is no way on Earth that Bergen Catholic vs. Don Bosco is a more hostile environment than the Big House against a 10-0, #3 ranked Wolverines team.

One of the guys in our Slack chat is a North Jersey idiot who says “Respectfully, HS football in Bergen County is built different.” With all due respect to Don Bosco and Bergen Catholic, let’s not act like this is Alabama vs. Auburn. A Christmas night Eagles crowd that’s bummed out about a three-game losing streak will still create a better and more hostile environment than anything Tommy DeVito ever saw in high school. Of course, if Jalen Hurts fumbles the ball on the first drive, you’ll be able to hear a pin drop at the Linc, but that’s not going to happen. The Birds aren’t going to fucking lose at home to Tommy Cutlets and the Giants. It’s time for everyone to stop being a pussy and get back on board. The Eagles win on Monday night and we’re back baby.
