It’s happening! James Harden will officially be making his 76ers debut when the team returns from the All-Star break in Minnesota to face the Timberwolves. There is palpable buzz surrounding his debut and for obvious reasons. The Sixers during the Joel Embiid or “Process” era have been what I deemed, the best 44 minute team […]
After the longest season in NFL history, the Los Angeles Rams are the last team standing and are the 2021 Super Bowl champions. How this somewhat relates to the Eagles is that there was a time in 2016 and 2017 when both franchises laid the foundation for a long stretch of success. Both drafted a […]
With the ending of every Eagles season comes a sense of despair centered around the question, “well what do I do now?”. There is a giant football void in your life that creates sadness. And, with the Eagles loss to the Buccaneers, that feeling was in full display. But, that anguish quickly vanished with the […]
After being on a high the past couple of months, beating bad teams and making a surprise run to the playoffs, the Eagles season came crashing and burning against the defending Super Bowl champion Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

It seems so long ago but when Nick Sirianni gave his awkward introductory press conference as Eagles head coach it seemed like things were not going to go well. It was hard enough for him to fill in the shoes of Doug Pederson, the first head coach to deliver a Lombardi trophy to Philadelphia, but […]
If nothing else, every season the Eagles bye week reminds me of one thing about Philadelphia fans and media alike: If they cannot find drama, they will create it. Imagine #Eagles didn’t project Micah Parsons as rusher, otherwise decades-old philosophy would have likely resulted in taking him over DeVonta Smith at 10. Unless they […]
Let’s start this off with a quote from the Philly Sports Bible that is completely real and definitely not made up. “As thy fans of Philadelphia sports garner confidence and expectation in a beloved team, thou must be reminded of what it means to be humble. The only way to do that is with […]
In the wise words of Heath Ledger’s Joker, “And here…we…go.” The Eagles improbable run to the postseason has begun. Every game from here on out is essentially a playoff game for the young Birds if they hope to get one of the seven postseason spots in the NFC. The stars seem to be aligning. […]
