Chuck from Mount Airy (or Maybe His Doppelganger) Stars in the Funniest Video of the Week
A reader sent this over. It certainly looks like WIP caller Chuck from Mount Airy beefing with some guy on Sansom Street, and if it’s not Chuck, it’s his twin brother or doppelganger: View this post on Instagram A post shared by EnterPRIZE Philly (@enterprizephilly) lmao This is so good – “Get the fuck out […] The post Chuck from Mount Airy (or Maybe His Doppelganger) Stars in the Funniest Video of the Week appeared first on Crossing Broad .
The Villanova Quarterback Situation Kind of Stinks
Let’s get the latest on the Villanova quarterback situation: “We’re still figuring out what’s happening there with the Pat McQuaide situation. We’re still trying to see if there’s any shot of him getting any type of eligibility. If he does, he’ll obviously be the starter. If not, then Robby Russo, who’s in his fourth year, […] The post The Villanova Quarterback Situation Kind of Stinks appeared first on Crossing Broad .
Shaun Bradley Tweets and Deletes That There’s No Truth to the A.J. Brown and Haason Reddick Masseuse Rumor
Saw this one on the timeline and clipped it before it was deleted. It’s from former Eagle Shaun Bradley, responding to the Birds fan who is peddling the Haason Reddick and A.J. Brown masseuse rumor: This rumor went viral back in June and was circulated in a thread from this guy, “Mansa Simba,” who said […] The post Shaun Bradley Tweets and Deletes That There’s No Truth to the A.J.

John Harbaugh Wants Cam Skattebo to be Infectious in a Good Way, Not in a Disease-like Way
Little bit of drama coming out of Giants camp on Wednesday, so let’s break it down sequentially. First, there was a bit of a kerfuffle involving Cam Skattebo, which was reported somewhat differently from various beats: Giants lineman Jermaine Eluemunor didn’t like how Leonard described the situation, and took to social media to poo-poo the […] The post John Harbaugh Wants Cam Skattebo to be Infectious in a Good Way, Not in a Disease-like Way appeared first on Crossing Broad .
Za’Darius Smith Explains Eagles Departure and Unretirement
Za’Darius Smith played five games for the Eagles last season before he abruptly retired.

So I let […] The post Za’Darius Smith Explains Eagles Departure and Unretirement appeared first on Crossing Broad .
RIP to the Pro Bowl
From ESPN News Services: The NFL is eliminating the Pro Bowl Games, instead shifting the focus to celebrating the honor of being a Pro Bowl selection.

Flyers Will Play 19 Nationally Broadcasted Games, but None Against Ducks

Jeffrey Lurie is Going into the Eagles Hall of Fame
Inbox: Not gonna lie, I thought Lurie was already in the Hall of Fame. Guess not. Though he is the team’s owner, so he could probably put himself in the Hall of Fame whenever he feels like it. He could tell the selection committee, “alright, you motherfuckers are gonna put me in this year.” But […] The post Jeffrey Lurie is Going into the Eagles Hall of Fame appeared first on Crossing Broad .
Pro Football Focus Says Eagles Have NFL’s Second-Best Linebacker Group
You know the rules – Pro Football Focus data is pointless and makes no sense, unless it’s favorable to the Eagles. In which case, we share this: It’s still somewhat jarring to think that the Eagles have these incredible linebackers. Zack Baun, Jihaad Campbell, Trot Jr. currently, and then Nakobe Dean, 2022 T.J. Edwards, and […] The post Pro Football Focus Says Eagles Have NFL’s Second-Best Linebacker Group appeared first on Crossing Broad .
Excitement for an Open Practice Wheel Route Shows Just How Much Eagles Fans Were Starving for Some Offensive Creativity
Combing through some of the video from Tuesday night’s open practice and this one stood out: Lemon TD by u/Bulldawgzz in eagles Why did it stand out? Well, probably because the Birds lined up a receiver in the backfield and then had him run a wheel route. Yeah, the defense was all of whack, but […] The post Excitement for an Open Practice Wheel Route Shows Just How Much Eagles Fans Were Starving for Some Offensive Creativity appeared first on Crossing Broad .

Former Union Player Scored an Absolute Belter in the UEFA Champions League
Sam Adeniran played seven games for the Philadelphia Union in 2024 and did not score a goal. Here he is on Tuesday evening with a banger against Celtic F.C. in the UEFA Champions League play off: What a hit! That’s 25 yards out, a one-time side foot hit, just floated into the corner.

Kevin Hayes is Off to Russia
NHL news: Hayes is 34 now. He played his last two NHL years for the Penguins but only featured in 28 games this past season and wasn’t used in the playoffs. It would have made for a semi-storyline if he was on the ice against the Flyers, who gave him a seven-year contract worth $50 […] The post Kevin Hayes is Off to Russia appeared first on Crossing Broad .
Larry Bowa is Going to Murder Someone at Verizon if the Wi-Fi Isn’t Fixed
Looks like Larry Bowa is having some serious Wi-Fi issues: Looks like the former Phillies skipper has been having these intermittent internet issues since late July. Where does he live, in the middle of nowhere? Maybe he needs one of those Elon Musk Starlink units for 200 MBPS connectivity, starting at $85 a month. That’s […] The post Larry Bowa is Going to Murder Someone at Verizon if the Wi-Fi Isn’t Fixed appeared first on Crossing Broad .
Rush Shouted Out the Late Pierre Robert at Philly Show

Zack Wheeler Just Doesn’t Have it
Unless you’re the 1972 Miami Dolphins, all winning streaks must come to an end. For the Phillies, it’ll go down as a nine-game streak after they were thumped 9-2 by the Mariners in Seattle on Monday night. Zack Wheeler had nothing from the jump, giving up two first inning home runs and shipping five runs […] The post Zack Wheeler Just Doesn’t Have it appeared first on Crossing Broad .
Is Philadelphia the Worst College Football City in America?
College football begins on Saturday, and with it comes seasonal depression: Is Philadelphia the worst college football city in America? You could loosely define this as “lack of interest/local program kind of stinks.” These are the things working against us: Honestly, you could make a case for any big city in the Northeastern United States.

Five Online Courses that Rocco Becht Could Take at Penn State
If you missed it last week, there was some hubbub about Penn State transfer quarterback Rocco Becht telling reporters that he’s taking one class this fall, and it’s not going to be inside of a building.

31 Things That Happened Since the Last Phillies Walk-Off Home Run
The streak… is over. After three-plus long years, the Phillies finally hit a walk-off home run on Sunday afternoon at Citizens Bank Park. The hero was Kyle Schwarber, who hit the last walk-off homer for the Phils on June 9th, 2023 against the Dodgers. It ended the longest active MLB streak for a team without […] The post 31 Things That Happened Since the Last Phillies Walk-Off Home Run appeared first on Crossing Broad .
Union Technically Going on Three Months Now Without an MLS Loss
Okay, so the headline is kind of cheap because of the World Cup break, but the Union haven’t lost a league game since May 24th, when they shipped six goals to Inter Miami. They’re 4-0-2 since, and collected a road point with a 1-1 draw in Austin on Saturday night: This certainly looks like a […] The post Union Technically Going on Three Months Now Without an MLS Loss appeared first on Crossing Broad .
Philadelphia Sports Fans Put on White Sox Gear and Deliver Flying Ninja Kicks to Downed Opponents
More bad behavior from Philly sports fans. This past weekend, they went out to Rate Field in Chicago’s south side, put on White Sox colors, and beat the tar out of each other: There is quite a bit going on here, so let’s break it down: The thing that stands out most about this video […] The post Philadelphia Sports Fans Put on White Sox Gear and Deliver Flying Ninja Kicks to Downed Opponents appeared first on Crossing Broad .
Nine Statistics from the Phillies’ Nine-Game Winning Streak
The Philadelphia Phillies are on FIRE! They’ve won nine games in a row, beginning with the Field of Dreams game out in Iowa, so maybe there was something about the cornfields that got this team going.

The Drought is Over, and The Magic Continues for the Phillies
The Phillies have won 9 games in a row, and it feels like they’ve won each game a different way. Who is this Phillies team?

Tyrese Maxey is Saying All the Right Stuff About this Sixers Team Having No Egos
I felt pretty damn elated watching LeBron, Tyrese Maxey, and Jaylen Brown finally take the court together earlier this week, but I must admit, I got slightly nervous, too. “These are three very good basketball players,” I thought. “They’re gelling well in this clip, yes, but these are just drills.
