The Philadelphia 76ers hosted an open scrimmage at Xfinity Mobile Arena on Saturday, and I was able to see the new squad up close and personal. After adding Jaylen Brown and LeBron James, Philly’s team looks like a championship contender. The event is usually held in Delaware where their G-League affiliate Blue Coats play, but they moved the event to Philadelphia to accommodate their fans. More than 10,000 fans packed out the arena, and proceeds from ticket sales went to

The Philadelphia Phillies were eliminated in the first round once again, this time by the hand of their division rival. The Atlanta Braves closed out the Phillies in three games, and now they will face the Los Angeles Dodgers. For Philadelphia, the ultimate question right now is, where do they go from here? Bryce Harper, Kyle Schwarber, and Trea Turner are making a combined $780 million dollars currently. These contracts would be almost impossible to get rid of. They have t

The more things change, the more they stay the same. Jalen Hurts has played 11 seasons of high-level football dating back to college, and he has had 11 different play callers. The one thing they all seemed to have a common? A rudimentary passing attack. In a 27-7 blowout loss to the Chicago Bears on Monday night, Hurts finished the game 16-for-25 for 153 yards with zero touchdowns and one interception. And yet, he somehow played even worse that pedestrian stat line would sugg

The Philadelphia Phillies have a strong chance of missing the playoffs this year, and they have nobody to blame but themselves. Philly made the World Series back in 2023, and their front office continued the same exact blueprint since. The problem is, that blueprint has failed miserably and it’s expired. In a tight NL race, the Phillies can’t afford to lose another game. In every year after their last World Series appearances, it’s been constant playoff exits and excuses f

In July, LeBron James signed with the Philadelphia 76ers in a blockbuster move. It was one of the biggest moves in the offseason, alongside the Jaylen Brown move to Philly as well. In a recent podcast episode with NBA legend Steve Nash, James said this about his reasons to play for the Sixers. "He's done everything in our league, and the only thing he has not done is win a championship. And I want to try to help him get that first one," James said. "He has a city on his ba

No Ohtani? No Judge? No problem. Even without the two biggest stars in the sport, Major League Baseball continues to prove why it has the single greatest All-Star game in American pro sports. Hell, MLB continues to prove why it has the single greatest All-Star week in American pro sports. The festivities started in earnest on Monday night at the Home Run Derby. To be fair, outside of Bryce Harper (and to a lesser extent, Kyle Schwarber), this year’s eight-man field didn’t hav

“I am who I am. Take it or leave it. I’m not going to change my values and change my approach because someone feels uncomfortable.” – Jaylen Brown, Andscape (2016) The Boston Celtics sent shockwaves through the basketball world on Wednesday when they traded All-NBA forward Jaylen Brown to the Philadelphia 76ers in exchange for Paul George, two future first round picks and two future second round picks. Given that Brown was coming off a career season in which he averaged 28.7
