Latest blog entries from Philadelphia teams across every league
I’ll bet you’re not at all happy with the Eagles’ offseason thus far, huh? Yeah, I get it. For the second straight year, the Birds haven’t done much to electrify the fanbase. In fact, they’ve seen more good players leave than they’ve acquired through the first major thrust of free agency, although in terms of […]
Joel Embiid is a notorious slow starter. Whether it’s the beginning of the season or after a long layoff, the former MVP generally takes a few games to get going. So much for that. The star center was brilliant from the opening tip in a 157-137 demolition of the Chicago Bulls Wednesday at Xfinity Mobile […]
Let’s get to the Philadelphia Eagles news and links … Myles Garrett trade rumors should heat up after Browns rework contract – SB NationPhiladelphia Eagles: We know the Eagles need more pass-rush help after losing Jaelan Phillips in free agency and they have wiggle room on the cap, especially after June 1 if they trade […]
Usually, this question of the day part is where we ask a niche question about the team. Maybe it’s about someone’s approach at the plate, their recent work at that craft, or what you think about a player’s recent play. Today is simple. It being the Phillies’ home opener (and season opener), we’re looking for […]
Last year’s National League East race ended with the Phillies (96-66) winning their second consecutive division crown, while the Mets (83-79) and Braves (76-86) both underperformed expectations and missed the playoffs entirely. The Marlins (79-83), meanwhile, came close to .500 as they showed promise and play a key role in ending the Mets’ postseason dreams […]
We’ve finally made it to Opening Day everyone. No, we’re not counting whatever happened on Netflix last night. Sit back and get ready for a full slate of games today and for baseball to be on your television every day (except the All-Star break) until early November. On to the links. Phillies news: MLB news:
*Back at it again tonight, against the Chicago Blackhawks, in a game that matters far less than the game on Tuesday did, so they’ll almost certainly win. We got a little bit of lineup news ahead of this one. [ BSH ] *Anyway that’s how the Flyers do it, right? Come up big when it doesn’t matter and choke away wins when it does. Part of the process, one supposes. [ Inquirer ] *Tuesday’s game didn’t eliminate them, to be sure, but they just made it that much harder on themselves. By pis...

It turns out having your max contract players available is more helpful than not. The Sixers took care of business as they welcomed guys back, blowing out the Chicago Bulls 157-137 Wednesday night. It’s the most points they’ve scored in a game since 1986. They are 40-33 and can pull into a tie for the […]

Don’t look now, but the Sixers actually might have over half of their starting lineup available. Philadelphia released their injury report ahead of their matchup with the Chicago Bulls, and there’s some potentially good news: Joel Embiid is listed as questionable. Embiid has yet to play in the month of March, suffering an oblique strain […]
Trevor Zegras and Jamie Drysdale, aside from being teammates with the Philadelphia Flyers , have a lot in common. They are each in their sixth NHL seasons, have each had big breakout years for Philly, and they are both restricted free agents as of July 1. And of course, one more thing they'll have in common: The Flyers will have to pony up on new extensions for each of them this summer. Anthony Di Marco of Daily Faceoff has revealed what the Flyers feel each player is worth on thos...
While the team hasn’t made an official announcement, Philadelphia Flyers winger Nikita Grebenkin is out with an injury and will likely not be in the lineup Thursday against the Chicago Blackhawks. “Yeah he’s been dealing with things the last couple of games,” head coach Rick Tocchet said after Wednesday’s practice . “He went to see a doctor today to get some more tests done on him.” When asked the nature of the injury, Tocchet revealed it was upper body and that it was more than like...
He still has some time before he’s a full-time member of the Philadelphia Flyers, but for the time being, 2024 second-round draft pick Jack Berglund’s development is heading in the right direction according to his current head coach in the SHL. Cam Abbott, who became Farjestads BK’s head coach in January after the team fired the previous coach, briefly discussed the center’s progress in the relatively short time he’s been coaching the 19-year-old native of Karlstad, Sweden. In an intervie...
I don’t know if you’ve been down to Clearwater lately, but the programs smell weird. It’s like a pulpy garbage smell that is very distinct, and it’s continued since at least 2022 when I smelled it the first time. It must have something to do with the printing process, which is a guess I am […]
A lot has been made about the misery that the Philadelphia Flyers season has been, but it doesn’t take long to realize that it could be a lot worse. Such as, not having your next two first-round draft picks and potentially sinking your entire organization into a state of mediocrity despite having some of the best players in the world on your hockey team. Famously, the Flyers do own the Toronto Maple Leafs’ 2027 first-round draft pick after somehow convincing them that forward Scott Laught...
Let’s get to the Philadelphia Eagles news and links … Tush push appears safe, no rule change proposals address the play – PFTThe tush push is here to stay. The NFL has released all the 2026 rule change proposals, and none of them address the tush push, which last year was the subject of a […]
For a second there, it seemed like everything was breaking their way. When the Flyers headed into the locker room at the end of the first period, with a 1-0 lead over the Blue Jackets and a host of their competition for playoff spots in the Eastern Conference losing their games at the same time, it seemed like they had all the momentum. Sean Couturier scored his eighth goal of the year while looking like his old self, and the Flyers largely dominated a period that could h...
The Sixers received some positive national attention for once on Tuesday, as Tyrese Maxey was a guest on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon. Here are some choice cuts from the good-natured appearance… “Man, I’m getting there. I’m getting there. I’m close,” Maxey says when Fallon asked him about the injured pinky finger that’s kept […]
The Philadelphia 76ers are coming off a loss to the Oklahoma City Thunder, who predictably had their way with the injury-riddled Sixers in their last matchup. Now they’ll have a prime opportunity to bounce back against a team tumbling toward the bottom of the standings — the Chicago Bulls. The Bulls have had an #OnBrand […]
Opening Day is tonight. Kind of. Well, the Yankees and Giants play tonight, on Netflix, so I guess it’s Opening Night. And there will be stars on the broadcast. From other sports. Not baseball, mind you. There will be wrestling people. On Netflix. I hate MLB sometimes. On to the links. Phillies news: MLB news:
*Wasn’t a “must-win” by technical definition, but it was a game the Flyers needed to win to make a statement. The statement being, “hey, we’d really like to make the playoffs. That would be fun.” Instead they, once again, shit the bed against the Blue Jackets. Recap . *Noah Cates had himself a penalty shot last night — didn’t score, sure, but still fun — and that was just a continuation of the very good play we’ve seen from him over the last several games. [ Inquirer ] *Also great la...
While not mathematically eliminated, the Philadelphia Flyers took a huge step backwards in their playoff hunt, losing to Columbus 3-2 on Tuesday night. It was particularly painful considering how many teams ahead of them (minus the Blue Jackets) lost as well, missing a chance to gain ground on all of them. The basics First period: 17:07- Sean Couturier (Luke Glendening, Rasmus Ristolainen) Second period: 0:44- Mathieu Olivier (Zack Werenski, Damon Severson) 2:28- Zack Werenski (Damon...
Howie Roseman never rests, and after a short lull in free agency moves, the Eagles re-signed Fred Johnson on Tuesday, and agreed to a one-year deal with WR Elijah Moore. Heading into his sixth year in the league, Moore started his career with the Jets — a Joe Douglas draft pick— before spending time with […]
