New York Times thinks the Phillies won the Super Bowl (Philly.com)

My parents were raucous fans of the Philadelphia Eagles (they both pronounced it "Iggles") AND ALSO loyal New York Times readers.

FROM Philly.com, a good laugh -- this one's for you, mom and dad:


New York Times thinks the Phillies won the Super Bowl

Breaking news: The Phillies have won the Super Bowl.
In a hastily sent Facebook post, the New York Times inadvertently gave the Phillies credit for the Eagles’ stunning 41-33 victory over the Patriots in Super Bowl LII.

Don’t worry, we won’t label the Times “Fake News.” Everyone makes mistakes, and “The Gray Lady” quickly corrected the post to reflect that it was indeed the Eagles that won the Super Bowl.
It’s just a good thing Eagles running back Jay Ajayi reads the Philadelphia Inquirer to keep up with the Birds.

Eagles win the , and Jay Ajayi holds the instant front page!
