So whats going on . Fox 29s hank flynn went down to the river looking for answers. Reporter did you hear something . Neither did i. Stop that racket now its hank im in palmyra where police have been getting calls from locals about too much noise on the other side of the riff in philly. Call it bad team work but my take is, philly police got bigger fish to fry than noise complaints. When i first heard about this heres what i had pictured in my mind. Hey palmyra, if its too loud, youre too old. Turn it down now. Dont you have any respect for common decency . Im calling the police. Yup, wrong police as it turn out palmyra pd look into the matter and said on facebook that they had no idea where the noise was coming from other than philly. I ran into pat haggerty he says he hasnt heard thing. Theyre getting noise its coming from their side because theyre aint no noise down this end of the park. Im down here every day. Im retired. I sit here and read the paper. Where theyre getting the noise it can be coming from that side, that noise reflects off water. Reporter palmyra posted ad they had no specific location to direct philly pd toward and neither did i. Miles of riverfront its a needle in haystack and then things changed.

He said its a party that happens on the weekend behind the dietz and watson plant. Lets fine out. I saw maybe 100 people at the first one. And probably more at the second one. So consecutive weekend.

Even up north i could feel it and hear it even though i had headphones on. Reporter other fisherman confirm the parties happen on weekends for the last several weeks at the boat dock which is completely surrounded by industrial areas. Part of the reason that there were apparently no complaints in philly cities are loud and towns like palmyra are cite quiet. Maybe thats the difference.

Thats the only way i know to coach defense and, you know, as long as coach pederson is fine with it ill continue that. And he is. Only thing pederson is have has to worry about andy reid.

Consistency, being honest, being open, being fair with the players, um, teaching, coaching.
