Monday Night Football: Eagles’ Atrocious Offense and Great Defense vs. Cowboys’ Atrocious Defense and Great Offense
Almost forgot that the Eagles play the Cowboys this weekend. Well, Monday Night Football, actually. Is this the worst Dallas Week ever? We’re currently Flyered and Sixered up while the Eagles are an afterthought on October 22nd, which hasn’t happened since… jeez, I don’t know, maybe the very end of the Andy Reid era. To […] The post Monday Night Football: Eagles’ Atrocious Offense and Great Defense vs. Cowboys’ Atrocious Defense and Great Offense appeared first on Crossing Broad .
The Flyers Are… Better Than You Think?
What a difference a week makes. Ten days ago, I wrote how the Flyers were worse than we all think. They had just lost their seventh game in a row (and would lose two more after the post was published) and looked abysmal on the ice. There was nothing to be excited about watching them […] The post The Flyers Are… Better Than You Think? appeared first on Crossing Broad .
Big 5 Might be Dead After Villanova Declines Future Participation
Wow we’ve got some breaking news hitting the wire on a Thursday morning! Villanova is OUT of the Big 5, sort of, with a format change coming not this season, but next season. I’ll drop in the release from the St. Joe’s website, a release that all of the non-Nova schools are sharing: Five institutions […] The post Big 5 Might be Dead After Villanova Declines Future Participation appeared first on Crossing Broad .
Flyers Will Now Win 9 Games in a Row, After Losing 9 in a Row
Ho hum, just another Flyers win. Three in a row. They dispatched the Sabres 3-1 on Wednesday night with a couple of greasy goals from Cole Knuble, playing in just his second NHL game: How can you not love it? That first goal he carries the puck into the offensive zone, tries to fend off […] The post Flyers Will Now Win 9 Games in a Row, After Losing 9 in a Row appeared first on Crossing Broad .
You Have to Spend the Rest of Your Life in Only One of These Areas
We’ve seen this trend on social media and decided to steal it. Or, let’s go with the term “piggyback.” Yes… We are going to piggyback on the idea, because it’s a great idea! You have to spend the rest of your life in only one of these areas. You can never leave. Not now, not […] The post You Have to Spend the Rest of Your Life in Only One of These Areas appeared first on Crossing Broad .
Finally, We’re Going to Find Out if Philadelphia is Big Enough for Two Country Music Stations
Some folks sent this over earlier in the week. Audacy flipped one of its Philly stations: WTDY is now US 96.5: Philly’s New Home for Country. The Audacy-owned station is flipping from pop to country, the No. 1 format in music radio. You’ll hear artists like Ella Langley, Luke Combs, Jelly Roll, and Morgan Wallen, […] The post Finally, We’re Going to Find Out if Philadelphia is Big Enough for Two Country Music Stations appeared first on Crossing Broad .
Leave the Gun, Take the Cannoli that Tony Escargot Sent to Crossing Broad Headquarters
A milestone for Crossing Broad on Wednesday, as we were “Cannoli’d” by the great Tony Escargot from Twitter: If you have no idea what’s going on here, Tony is one of great Philadelphia Flyers accounts. He (or she?) is equipped with an impressive array of memes and gifs and utilizes each for the trolling of […] The post Leave the Gun, Take the Cannoli that Tony Escargot Sent to Crossing Broad Headquarters appeared first on Crossing Broad .
As the Jalen Hurts Blood Clot Saga Takes Another Turn, Let’s Talk About the Joint Statement with Agent Nicole Lynn
The latest twist in Jalen Hurts' blood‑clot saga sees the NFL defending the Eagles' handling while the NFLPA calls for a full investigation. Chief medical officer Dr. Allan Sills dismisses claims of external influence, and the players union states it has no knowledge of any probe into Hurts' care in London or Philadelphia. Adding intrigue, Hurts’ agent Nicole Lynn issued a joint statement with the Eagles on October 19, suggesting alignment between the team and the agent despite the quarterback being ruled out for the season. The article weighs the conflicting narratives and critiques the Eagles’ public‑relations approach, noting the lack of medical expertise in the team’s media appearances.
Joel Embiid’s Defensive Level is the Story of the Sixers’ Season-Opening Win
The Philadelphia 76ers kicked off their widely anticipated season with a 106-100 victory over the New York Knicks. It was a terrific feeling to spoil the banner night in New York, and the star-studded lineup largely lived up to the billing. But as much attention has gone to the additions of LeBron James and Jaylen […] The post Joel Embiid’s Defensive Level is the Story of the Sixers’ Season-Opening Win appeared first on Crossing Broad .
LeBron Had to Remind Some Wall Street-Looking Jabroni Fan That He’s From the Midwest
It look LeBron one half of basketball to go full Philly on a Knicks fan: lmao Still wanna know what this guy said to LeBron to set him off. It wasn’t Spike Lee or Ben Stiller or even Mariska Hargitay, though that would be hilarious. Could you imagine?

Nobody Enjoyed Watching the New-Look Sixers More Than Tom McGinnis
It feels good to have professional basketball back in Philadelphia. I wasn’t sure what to expect heading into the Sixers/Knicks season opener in Madison Square Garden, but I certainly wasn’t expecting a team with limited chemistry to play so well defensively, especially against the Knicks. But LeBron James, Jaylen Brown, Tyrese Maxey, VJ Edgecombe, and […] The post Nobody Enjoyed Watching the New-Look Sixers More Than Tom McGinnis appeared first on Crossing Broad .

Stay or Go: Phillies Have Decisions to Make on Six Free Agents
The Phillies, once again, fell short in the postseason, and now they’ll turn to an offseason with a lot of questions. They’ll have six players hit free agency at the conclusion of the World Series.

After Fourth Loss in a Row, Penn State Running Back’s Dad Apologizes for Ripping Rocco Becht on Twitter
After Penn State’s fourth consecutive loss, Quinton Martin Sr., father of running back Quinton Martin Jr., apologizes on Twitter for harshly criticizing quarterback Rocco Becht. The dad had earlier posted that Becht lacked arm strength, height, and IQ, then removed the tweet and issued an apology, acknowledging the pressure on the quarterback. Becht’s recent performance was rough: 28‑44 for 267 yards, a touchdown, two interceptions, and a fumble in a close game against Michigan. The article notes Penn State’s struggling running game, an over‑reliance on passing, and questions whether a quarterback change could help the Nittany Lions as they chase a bowl bid.

Union’s Second Goal Against Charlotte Was So Good That it Should Count as Two Goals
The Union remain unbeaten, 15 in a row now after a 2-2 home draw with Charlotte on Saturday afternoon. It wasn’t their best game of this current run, but as we’ve seen going all the way back to July now, they find a way to get a result, and they deserved the point after scoring […] The post Union’s Second Goal Against Charlotte Was So Good That it Should Count as Two Goals appeared first on Crossing Broad .
What Now For Temple Football After “Single Most Embarrassing Game” of K.C. Keeler’s Career?
The Temple Owls lost at home to the 0-6 Charlotte 49ers on Saturday afternoon. They were a 21-point favorite. Afterward, K.C. Keeler said this: “I’ve coached over 400 games as a head coach.

Paul Bissonnette Wants Social Media Accounts like Flyers Nation and Tony Escargot to Kiss His Ass
Saw this on the timeline: Transcribed: Biz (doing a bit and speaking as if he is Rick Tocchet): Flyers fans that are in Paul Bissonette’s mentions want to actually come and meet him in person. Let him know. Because like you said, Yands (Keith Yandle), there’s a lot of posititivity (sic) in the building, but […] The post Paul Bissonnette Wants Social Media Accounts like Flyers Nation and Tony Escargot to Kiss His Ass appeared first on Crossing Broad .
The Flyers Won, the Game Was Entertaining, and Matvei Michkov Looked Great
Matvei Michkov scored two goals in a 3-2 Flyers win over the Avalanche on Monday night in South Philly. He would have had a hat trick if he had hit an open net at the end of the game (1:22) – Russian-to-English language jokes aside, Michkov credited his teammates for the victory. “I think this […] The post The Flyers Won, the Game Was Entertaining, and Matvei Michkov Looked Great appeared first on Crossing Broad .
The Sixers’ Season Opener Comes at the Perfect Time
I’m not sure LeBron James could write a better script for his Sixers debut tonight. The Eagles are already immersed in a lost season after six games. The Phillies had another swift playoff exit before the league most likely enters an owner’s lockout for however long, and the Flyers have won their last two games, […] The post The Sixers’ Season Opener Comes at the Perfect Time appeared first on Crossing Broad .

Adam Joseph Teases Big Announcement, Possible Retirement (UPDATED)
Adam Joseph, longtime meteorologist for Action News, posted this earlier today on X: Is Adam Joseph retiring? Sure feels like he’s retiring. The “I’ve been blessed for more than 27 years to work in a profession I believe I was born to do” sentence certainly seems like a retirement sentence. Also the memory lane part.

Knowing what we now know about the severity of Jalen Hurts’ blood clot situation, this Michael Robinson opinion from last week has skyrocketed up the rankings of The Worst Takes Ever Uttered: “if I’m Jalen Hurts − or anybody in Jalen Hurts’ camp − I’m saying, ‘Well if everybody’s hurt, I’m hurt, too.’ “To me, […] The post Michael Robinson’s Take on Jalen Hurts Faking His Injury is So Much Worse/Funnier Now (UPDATED) appeared first on Crossing Broad .
To Tank, or Not to Tank? That is Now the Eagles Question
Let’s set the scene: We’re only six games into the season. Howie Roseman already procured a couple of draft picks for Jurgens, so it’s clear he’s in typical Howie mode, which is to build himself an off ramp and gather assets for a potential roster flip 2-3 years down the road. A full tank at […] The post To Tank, or Not to Tank? That is Now the Eagles Question appeared first on Crossing Broad .
