Sixers Should Fire the Employee Who Sold Season Ticket Package to Nick Wright

For people who say they’re against gatekeeping, and that “anyone can be a fan,” I present to you the following: “This was an extravagance, I will admit. Shoutout to the good people at the Philadelphia 76ers. It’s not a press pass. I paid retail. Now, I will say this – the home opener is a […] The post Sixers Should Fire the Employee Who Sold Season Ticket Package to Nick Wright appeared first on Crossing Broad .

Jalen Carter Says He’s Playing in Tennessee

Jalen Carter injured his right wrist against Washington in Week 1, while trying to punch the ball out of Terry McLaurin’s hands in the fourth quarter: The bum wrist kept him out of practice until Thursday, when the All-Pro defensive tackle returned as a limited participant. None of that sounds that great, but according to […] The post Jalen Carter Says He’s Playing in Tennessee appeared first on Crossing Broad .

Interesting That No One Complains When Josh Allen Does the Tush Push

The Bills beat the Lions 41-31 on Thursday night, and Josh Allen got the scoring started with a tush push: Which had a bunch of people online noticing something we’ve written about before: the Bills sure seem to run the tush push a lot, but suddenly, weirdly, there’s no more backlash about the play. Remember […] The post Interesting That No One Complains When Josh Allen Does the Tush Push appeared first on Crossing Broad .

Yes, It’s True that Changes are Coming to Eagles Tailgating and the Sports Complex

A handful of people reached out this week asking if we knew anything the changes coming to Eagles tailgating. The answer was no. No clue. But these people pointed us to a couple of things, first a social media post from Carmen Conti of Big Carm’s Tailgate, who puts together a large spread every week.

“Avoided the Scariest Outcomes” – Mets Manager Says CT Scan on Jared Young Came Back Negative

Scary moment on Thursday night when Justin Crawford hit a dribbler up the 1st base line and Mets pitcher Nolan McLean accidentally kneed Jared Young in the head: Luckily, it sounds like a serious injury was avoided: “It was really scary… He’s had CT scan, results have come back negative, so in that sense it’s […] The post “Avoided the Scariest Outcomes” – Mets Manager Says CT Scan on Jared Young Came Back Negative appeared first on Crossing Broad .

Is it Me or Does Matvei Michkov Seem Locked-In as Hell Right Now?

Matvei Michkov had a big summer. He saw two movies. He lost a bunch of weight. He dropped hints that he’d like to move to Feasterville. And at the Flyers first day of camp on Thursday, the third-year winger seemed ready to keep the positive momentum going into the NHL season. First off — and […] The post Is it Me or Does Matvei Michkov Seem Locked-In as Hell Right Now? appeared first on Crossing Broad .

Phillies Postseason: Worried or Not Worried?

The Phillies are playing a very on-brand version of Phillies baseball right now. It feels like no lead is safe, and there isn’t a ton of confidence in the offense to string together runs like they were at the beginning of August. With 10 games to go until the postseason, that’s not a great feeling […] The post Phillies Postseason: Worried or Not Worried? appeared first on Crossing Broad .

Trevor Zegras Has at Least 3 Other Flyers Living in His House

This video just came across my desk: “Hey guys, it’s Trevor Zegras. I think I’m gonna be housing a couple rookies and then I have a ten-year veteran staying in my attic. So we got Barks (Denver Barkey) back, we got Marty (Porter Martone) living in there, and then Christian Dvorak is taking the attic.

The Jeffery Simmons Quote About Jalen Hurts is Kind of Dumb Whether it’s in Full Context or Half Context

If Jalen Hurts was hoping for some bulletin board material heading into Sunday’s matchup with the Titans, Jeffery Simmons did him a favor: the Tennessee defensive tackle said that to secure the win, they “just need to make Jalen Hurts be a quarterback.” #Titans Jeffery Simmons on Jalen Hurts: We just need to make Jalen […] The post The Jeffery Simmons Quote About Jalen Hurts is Kind of Dumb Whether it’s in Full Context or Half Context appeared first on Crossing Broad .

Flyers Keeping the “Brick by Brick” Slogan in 2026, an Homage to the Process Sixers

Flyers camp is underway and it looks like the “Brick by Brick” slogan is back for another year: The Flyers actually sent out a press release about this last year, on September 18th, revealing that “Brick by Brick” was replacing the “New Era of Orange.” It was a rebuilding-themed slogan because they were “laying a […] The post Flyers Keeping the “Brick by Brick” Slogan in 2026, an Homage to the Process Sixers appeared first on Crossing Broad .

50 Lashes for the Fanatic Employee Who Published This A.I. Abomination

Come on, man: Julius Irving? Never heard of him. But I do know Julius Erving. “Dr. J.” He rocked the baby to sleep with a slam dunk and played on the 1983 Sixers team that almost went “Fo Fo Fo” with Moses Malone. Best Philadelphia sports team of all time, depending on how you feel […] The post 50 Lashes for the Fanatic Employee Who Published This A.I. Abomination appeared first on Crossing Broad .

Brandon Graham Takes a Shot at Spike Eskin

This PHLY clip is making the rounds: “…we played good enough to win the game. We make it to the next week. I can say that the Falcons in 2017, that game we didn’t play as good as we needed to, but we found a way to win. They don’t care then!

Cavan Sullivan Gets USMNT Call-Up

Per Jeff Carlisle at ESPN, the Union’s Cavan Sullivan has earned a call-up to the United States Men’s National Team for the FIFA International window this September and October. The 16-year-old will have the chance to lace them up against Peru, Chile, Mexico, and Canada, with games set to begin on September 26th in Orlando.

Nick Sirianni Gets an A+ For Sniffing Out This Drew Kendall Question

With Landon Dickerson hitting the IR after a rough Week 1 — a performance he’s since pretty much blamed on getting injured at practice a few weeks ago — the Eagles will have some offensive line adjustments to make in Week 2. The question now is what exactly those adjustments will be. The two logical […] The post Nick Sirianni Gets an A+ For Sniffing Out This Drew Kendall Question appeared first on Crossing Broad .

Joe Mazzulla Doesn’t Like Paul George Reminding Him How Paul George Torched the Celtics in the Playoffs

Don’t get me wrong, I’m amped about the Sixers’ new-look roster this season. LeBron James. Jaylen Brown. Et cetera. This is going to be sick. I’m very excited. No doubt. But I must admit, from time to time, I still find myself thinking about the thrill of last season’s first round win over the Celtics.

Q/A: Susan Barnett on Life After Television, Living the Costco Dream, and How a Passion for Design Became a Real Estate Career

It was 13 years ago when Susan Barnett walked away from CBS 3 Eyewitness News, unexpectedly. Back then, the Eagles had recently fired Andy Reid, the Phillies traded Vance Worley for Ben Revere, and the Sixers were close to bringing in Brett Brown to kick off the Process era. Mike Knuble was a Flyer for […] The post Q/A: Susan Barnett on Life After Television, Living the Costco Dream, and How a Passion for Design Became a Real Estate Career appeared first on Crossing Broad .

The Flyers Will Rightfully Recognize the Irish with a 2027 Heritage Night

After giving the lousy Italians* a heritage night in 2026, the Flyers will have Irish heritage night in 2027: February 24th, against the Buffalo Sabres. A few weeks before St. Patrick’s Day. All ticket package buyers will receive the clover beanie you see in the picture, which is nice. The Paisans got a black t-shirt […] The post The Flyers Will Rightfully Recognize the Irish with a 2027 Heritage Night appeared first on Crossing Broad .

If the Eagles’ Offensive Line Can Pose Naked, Why Can’t Sydney Sweeney?

There’s been a lot of hubbub about this Sydney Sweeney advertisement for Novig. The reactionary bloviating is dense, and tricky to summarize, but Carlos Rodriguez at the AP did a good job: An advertising campaign featuring American actor Sydney Sweeney has sparked widespread backlash from female athletes who say it is sexualizing women in sports. In the […] The post If the Eagles’ Offensive Line Can Pose Naked, Why Can’t Sydney Sweeney? appeared first on Crossing Broad .

Matt Cord is Returning as Sixers PA Announcer

Just 34 days out from what might be the most anticipated Sixers season ever, fans got yet another reason to be amped on Wednesday morning: Matt Cord announced that he’ll be returning as the team’s PA announcer for one more year: “I’m incredibly grateful for the opportunity to return to the mic as PA announcer […] The post Matt Cord is Returning as Sixers PA Announcer appeared first on Crossing Broad .

The Phillies Have Lost 8 of 12 and Jesus Luzardo is on the Injured List

The Phillies lost 6-3 to the Nats with Cristopher Sanchez giving up five runs on eight hits in 6.1 innings of work. They’ve lost 8 of 12 and Jesus Luzardo is injured: Luzardo pitched a complete game shutout in his last outing, which was September 7th. Maybe that wasn’t ideal in hindsight, but they didn’t […] The post The Phillies Have Lost 8 of 12 and Jesus Luzardo is on the Injured List appeared first on Crossing Broad .

Who’s Been Keeping Matvei Michkov Away From Lower Bucks and its Top-Notch Russian Bathhouses?

As Kinker wrote last week, Matvei Michkov mentioned that the only downside to Philadelphia is that there are no Russian bathhouses. Michkov really likes these banyas, and he didn’t just say it once. He said it many, many times in a clip that’s only twenty-seven seconds long: Let me just drop a super subtle hint […] The post Who’s Been Keeping Matvei Michkov Away From Lower Bucks and its Top-Notch Russian Bathhouses? appeared first on Crossing Broad .

Even the Camera in the Phillies’ TV Booth Had Enough of This Game

The Phillies blew another one – this time to the Washington Nationals. Cristopher Sánchez barely got through 6.1 innings before being lifted in the 7th inning with two on and one out. Enter Jonathan Bowlan, who has been running on fumes for the last month. And on his first pitch… Phillies lose.
