Each year, on the eve of Temple’s home opener, I write an article similar to this one. It begs and pleads with anyone who listens to ensure that in the near future, Temple’s home opener occurs at a stadium on campus. This year, my sixth year doing so, I would be remiss if I didn’t […]

*Ducks, and runs for cover* Former New York Ranger and current LA King Brendan Lemieux recently did an interview on the Dropping the gloves podcast. It was a great interview and Lemieux, being a former teammate of current Flyers defenseman Tony DeAngelo spoke on one of the incidents that has given DeAngelo a bad reputation. […]

I grew up in the era of Jim Johnson’s 2000s Eagles defenses playing with an unmatched level of aggression. The late Johnson was known for dialing up the pressure in seemingly every situation, and it almost always worked. Johnson was unapologetic about who he was and the style of defense that he coached. That mindset, […]

It’s a rainy, dreary Monday in Philadelphia. We awoke to raindrops pattering on the window for the first time in quite some time. Phillies fans probably hope that the rain clouds steadily increase throughout the day and postpone the Phillies tonight. This bullpen and this fan base, could use a day off.   The 2022 […]

Eagles football is BACK. With a roster that has gotten much deeper with talent seemingly everywhere, the excitement level for the Birds is sky high.

Ben Simmons has been pampered his entire life. He’s used to everything coming easy, being unconditionally loved, and never having to answer for himself or be held with any sort of accountability. If you’re a Philadelphia sports fan, you already knew that. Simmons’ refusal to play for the Sixers in the first half of the […]

Tuesday was one of the wildest trade deadlines in the history of Major League Baseball. There was a franchise-altering move, plenty of smart moves, some head-scratching moves, a few under-the-radar depth moves, and whatever the Colorado Rockies are doing.   Asked about the Rockies being the only team to not make a deadline trade, Bill […]

Dave Dombrowski was asleep for about a week, up until approximately 3:30 on Tuesday afternoon. As the rest of the baseball world was reacting to the shockwaves of the Nationals being a poverty organization, rest assured Dombrowski wasn’t missing his daily cat nap.   Then, out of seemingly nowhere, the Phillies made two trades in […]

When Dave Dombrowski spoke to the media in the Phillies dugout before their series against the Braves, he was shockingly transparent. He seems to like where the Phillies are at lineup wise, especially with Jean Segura on the way back and Bryce Harper hopefully returning by the time the Birds wrap up their preseason schedule. […]
