James Harden re-signing with the Cleveland Cavaliers was inevitable. Still, when the news came out that he signed a 3/$97m contract, I couldn’t help but shake my head in perplexity. Why does this keep happening? Year after year, contenders keep fooling themselves into thinking that James Harden is something that he is not, a winner. […]
Welcome to the 2nd annual NFL Hate List!!! An ESSENTIAL part of the Philadelphia Eagles experience is having all sorts of grudges across the NFL landscape. Sometimes it feels like there are too many to keep up with and then just when you think you’ve hit your limit with petty grudges, BAM, some player or […]
As the NFL Salary cap consistently goes up, so will NFL contracts. Over the next two years you will see records fall at every position. It’s just the nature of the NFL. Since the offseason is agonizingly long, each week I will profile a different position to tell you who is the next man up […]
My whole life I took for granted that Philadelphia has all four major professional sports. Having a local team is just the way it’s supposed to be, right? Well, by my count, there are only eleven other cities that can make the same claim. These are the 4 for 4s. I say “by my count” […]
I’ve always thought final roster predictions were silly. Experts would get themselves in a tizzy over guys who would likely not factor into the season in the least and the whole exercise seemed trite. The season though, things are pretty interesting namely because the Eagles have to balance the talent that they need now with […]
Updated through Braves and Padres games of 8/19 There are 34 games left in the 2026 regular season. With a record of 70-58, the Phillies would be in the playoffs if that carnival started today. It’s close though, very close. Far closer than it has any business being, but here we are. Let’s take a […]
Why can’t I quit the Phillies? I totally get why people are jumping off the bandwagon. They stink and are infuriating. Plus, giving up and getting mad that people who don’t is a great defense mechanism. Mine is to get mad while they play, get bitter afterwards, then wake up and think of how annoying […]
Baltimore Memorial Stadium was built in 1954 in order to entice not only to house the St. Louis Browns of Major League Baseball but also the Baltimore Colts who had ceased operations a few years earlier but were now ready to return. The Browns became the Orioles and the Colts remained the Colts, but sports […]
What are you doing this Sunday? If you are not going to see Point Break in theaters for it’s 35th anniversary, then you are doing it wrong. It’s not only quite possibly the greatest movie of all time, but it is so good that it even has the greatest remake of all time as well, […]
The Twins are a fun franchise and Minneapolis is a great city (at least in the summer time). Baseball started there after moving from Washington in 1961 and was pretty successful, winning two World Series (1987 and 1991) and losing another (1965). There were stars like Rod Carew, Harmon Killebrew, Bert Blyleven, and Kirby Puckett. […]

Even before I started writing about the Eagles, it was a pleasure to follow the team. Sure, they win a lot, but for those of us who enjoy the transactional part of the game, you can count on them to almost always making the right move, to be prepared, and to do the little things […]
