Latest blog entries from Philadelphia teams across every league
Let’s get to the Philadelphia Eagles news and links … Vic Fangio’s updated thoughts on his defensive players, and Sean Mannion’s first Eagles presser – PhillyVoiceCooper DeJean will play safety in the base defense. Fangio was asked what his view of the safety position is next to Andrew Mukuba… “It’s open. I think Marcus [Epps] […]
The Philadelphia 76ers could find the thought of signing Khris Middleton in free agency attractive enough with his huge upside.
Despite being one of the first hires by the Eagles early in the offseason, offensive coordinator Sean Mannion is just now speaking to reporters for the first time in his new role. Mannion spoke on Thursday about building a new offensive scheme, working with Jalen Hurts, and some of the other new coaches he’s added […]
The 2025-26 Philadelphia Flyers made an important step in the development of their young core, making the playoffs for the first time since 2020. The team was swept by the Carolina Hurricanes in the Eastern Conference Semifinals and looked overmatched for much of the series. Carolina has been very successful in the Rod Brind’Amour era, having last missed the playoffs in 2018. They were the best team in the Eastern Conference and the second-best team in the NHL this past season. ...
It feels like just yesterday Sixers fans were in ferocious debates over who the team should select No. 3 overall in the 2025 NBA Draft. The team ultimately took VJ Edgecombe out of Baylor. There was also a sector of the fan base who contemplated what the Sixers could get in a Tyrese Maxey trade […]
It was the type of start we’ve come to expect from Aaron Nola. First inning, we see vintage Nola. Pinpoint command. Two strikeouts. A 1-2-3 opener. The type of beginning that makes you remember why the Phillies signed the veteran right-hander to a seven-year, $172 million contract before the start of the 2024 season. Then, […]
The Philadelphia 76ers should seriously consider signing Jock Landale in free agency to mitigate their lack of scoring off the bench.
For the first time since he was hired to be the Philadelphia Eagles’ new offensive coordinator on January 29, Sean Mannion is being made available to media access. The team informed local reporters that they’re holding coordinator press conferences around 2:30 PM Eastern at the Jefferson Health Training Complex. It’s hardly unprecedented for the Eagles […]
Let’s get to the Philadelphia Eagles news and links … RotoPat’s 2026 NFL GM rankings: Analysis for all 32 teams – NBC Sports1) Howie Roseman, Eagles. Sometimes a fact becomes so obvious, no one bothers saying it out loud. This is where I point out Howie Roseman is already a Hall-of-Famer. Having long since outlasted […]
On Tuesday the National Hockey League revealed what the cost would be regarding offer sheets and the compensation needed to land the player in question. Teams could begin discussing deals with restricted free agents on the night of June 30, but the deal could not be inked until free agency begins on July 1. The tiers were divided into the following, with obviously the bigger offer sheet Average Annual Value (AAV) resulting in a team coughing up more draft picks. Offer Sheet AAV Compensati...
Yesterday’s loss to the Reds featured a rather lackluster performance from the Phillies bullpen. Tim Mayza, Orion Kerkering, Brad Keller, and José Alvarado combined to allow 5 runs in 4 innings and doom the Phillies’ chances of mounting a comeback. So naturally, let’s take this off day as a chance to re-assess the trust level […]
The Philadelphia 76ers have no options with Joel Embiid, and that is something they will have to deal with for better or for worse.
Former Philadelphia 76ers big man Al Horford appears poised to play another season in the league in the following campaign.
The Phillies finally had their streak of six straight series wins snapped yesterday with their loss in the rubber match with the Reds. Their turnaround since Don Mattingly took over as manager has been impressive, but they were bound to run into a dud of a series at some point. The important part will be […]
*Last night we got the first game out west, and tonight we get the first game of this Montreal Canadiens – Carolina Hurricanes series. Then we can really think about what the Flyers can learn from these four remaining teams. [ BSH ] *While we’re all learning lessons, here’s one thing learned from each of the teams eliminated in the second round, including your Philadelphia Flyers. [ The Athletic ] *Have we mentioned that Danny Briere is going to have a lot of decisions to make this s...
The Braves won another, the Phillies and Mets each lost another, and the division lead is back to 9.0 games, after a brief swoon back down to 7.0 games. They’ll have Spencer Strider on the mound, facing Sandy Alcantara, as they go for the series win in the four-game mid-week series. The loss of Drake […]
Philadelphia Eagles edge rusher Nolan Smith was arrested last week for alleged speeding and reckless driving, according to a report from The Georgia Gazette. Smith was booked on Friday, May 15. Here’s a look at his mugshot: Smith was allegedly going nearly twice the speed limit in a 70 miles per hour zone. This isn’t […]
The Philadelphia Flyers don’t have many holes to fill on their roster this offseason. Well, at least ones that can be easily found through free agency. This offseason’s free-agency class is particularly lackluster, although John Carlson could be the perfect fit. Outside of him, Darren Raddysh, and a few other veterans who will be overpaid, most teams will try to use free agency to fill in smaller gaps. One position where the Flyers have a few questions this offseason is between the p...
Watching Sal Stewart struggle for the first time as a big leaguer was rough. After ripping through the month of April and taking home National League Rookie of the Month honors, May greeted him with a dose of what happens when big league pitchers and coaches finally get to scout you in detail via big […]
The Philadelphia Flyers are among the teams looking to upgrade their goaltending situation this summer. While career backup Dan Vladar provided more than they could have hoped for in a starting role this season, Samuel Ersson left plenty to be desired as his understudy. Philly is looking for a new tandem partner for Vladar. While the Flyers are open to locking up Vladar if the price is right (he has one year remaining on his deal and is eligible for an extension July 1), they are fully a...
The Phillies and Reds played the rubber game of their series on Wednesday afternoon. The offense wasn’t great, but the main problem was that Aaron Nola and the bullpen simply couldn’t keep the Reds from scoring. The result was a 9-4 loss and the team’s first series loss under manager Don Mattingly. The Phillies scored […]
All throughout this summer we will be conjuring up some hypotheses of how exactly the Philadelphia Flyers might look on the ice next season. Will they be going super young and trading away some veterans? Will they add a more experienced presence down the middle or on the blue line to try and feel more secure about making the playoffs again? What about the backup goaltender? To ask all of these questions and try to come up with answers, sometimes we have to know the rules. Those pesky litt...
In taking Tuesday night’s game over the Philadelphia Phillies in 4-1 fashion, the Cincinnati Reds have set themselves up for a chance to win a road series for the first time in a month. The last time they accomplished such a feat came on April 21st when they wrapped up a victory in the second […]
Nic Deslauriers is just an insanely easy guy to root for and while his time with the Philadelphia Flyers is almost certainly over (and has been since he was traded at the deadline), it is nice to remember what he represented while he was here. Maybe not the most skilled guy on the ice, or the fastest, or the best forechecker, or the most defensively solid, but he sure could fight. So, do you really want to read a big blog about what Deslauriers did on the ice during actual play? You click...
A very interesting piece of information came along over this past weekend while the Phillies were sweeping the Pirates. Sports Nippon reported that the Phillies sent general manager Preston Mattingly along with five other representatives to Japan to personally scout Teruaki Sato of the Hanshin Tigers in Nippon Professional Baseball. Matt Gelb of the Athletic […]
