@FanSince09 says farewell to Evan Mathis

Few fans seem to be pleased with Chip Kelly's decision to cut offensive guard Evan Mathis on Thursday — least of all local sports Twitter aficionado @FanSince09.

"Chip Kelly has made an enemy today," he tweeted last night. "This is losing Dawkins X 20."

Mathis and @FanSince09 first developed an online relationship shortly after Mathis joined the Eagles in 2011. And ever since last September — following @FanSince09's involvement in helping bring attention to the Center City assault of a gay couple — @FanSince09 has directed interested parties to "send all media requests to @EvanMathis69."

"A lot of what he does is just exposing stupid people," Mathis told the Inquirer of @FanSince09 last year. "It started with highlighting awful grammar and has evolved into catching criminals. It's art."

So, with that relationship in mind, it's easy to see why @FanSince09 might be a little miffed at Mathis having been cut. And miffed he is:

Still, though, @FanSince09 remains supportive of his ex-Eagle pal:

In addition to expressing his frustration and support on Twitter @FanSince09 also put together a pretty touching farewell video to Mathis via Snapchat, which you may want to view above.

After all, in the creator's opinion, it's actually quite good:

And with that, we say farewell to Evan Mathis. We'll miss you, bud. Maybe not as much as @FanSince09, but we'll miss you.
