Mayor Nutter appeared at a press conference this morning wearing a Cardinals jersey over his suit, honoring the bet he made with Phoenix Mayor Phil Gordon over the NFC championship game. As we all know, the Eagles lost to the Cardinals, so Nutter had to eat crow.

"As you can imagine this is one of my most painful moments in my time here," said Nutter, who wore an Eagles hat to offset the rival jersey. "The news media is here. It has been witnessed. I will now take the jersey off."
