Pitchfork Gave the New Sublime Album a 4.7 Because They’ve Clearly Never Been to the Surf Mall and Don’t Understand Salt Life
Sublime is back with a new album, featuring the original lineup with the late Bradley Nowell’s son Jakob filling in as singer and frontman, and Pitchfork are not fans. The notoriously insufferable music publication gave Until The Sun Explodes a 4.7 out of 10, which is a wildly low score. For context, Pitchfork’s average score […] The post Pitchfork Gave the New Sublime Album a 4.7 Because They’ve Clearly Never Been to the Surf Mall and Don’t Understand Salt Life appeared first on Crossing B...
It Took Three Seconds for Sixers President of Basketball Operations Mike Gansey to Jinx Jesús Luzardo’s No-Hitter
Tuesday night’s Phillies game featured the TV broadcast crew taking in the game from the seats. It’s something they do annually. This year, they were parked right behind home plate and were visible for every single pitch. They had a few guests join them, including Flyers head coach Rick Tocchet, before the new Sixers President […] The post It Took Three Seconds for Sixers President of Basketball Operations Mike Gansey to Jinx Jesús Luzardo’s No-Hitter appeared first on Crossing Broad .

Owen Caissie Learned Not to ABS Challenge Zack Wheeler’s Cutter
Zack Wheeler put on a show from the bump on Monday night as the Phillies handily beat the Marlins 7-0. This clip of Owen Caissie challenging Wheeler’s called strike three on a nasty cutter tells pretty much the whole story: This clip rules. Caissie looked utterly shocked to see that Wheeler’s cutter – which did […] The post Owen Caissie Learned Not to ABS Challenge Zack Wheeler’s Cutter appeared first on Crossing Broad .
Not Sure Whether to Be Motivated or Embarrassed After Seeing Shirtless Rod Brind’Amour Lift the Stanley Cup
The Canes won the Stanley Cup. Awesome team. A total wagon. And I’ll tell what, these shirtless photos of Rod Brind’Amour are insane: They don’t call him “Rod the Bod” for no reason, but the man is 55 years old and last played hockey in 2010. I didn’t look like that at 21, 31, or […] The post Not Sure Whether to Be Motivated or Embarrassed After Seeing Shirtless Rod Brind’Amour Lift the Stanley Cup appeared first on Crossing Broad .

Gabriel Rincones Jr., called up after the Adolis Garcia injury, hit his first major league home run: I have to say I’m impressed with the casual home run pimpage and bat flip. It’s all part […] The post I’m Impressed with the Effortlessly Casual Bat Flip and Pimpage After Gabriel Rincones Jr.’s First Big League Home Run appeared first on Crossing Broad .
Several Episodes of the New A&E Show “Squatters” Were Filmed in Philly
I’m learning a lot about squatters today. Pretty fascinating stuff. Let me get you up to speed here on all my new squatter knowledge. First things first: Beyond the definition, I learned there’s a new TV show about it on A&E called Squatters. Here’s the IMDB description: Flash Shelton and his team confront squatters nationwide, […] The post Several Episodes of the New A&E Show “Squatters” Were Filmed in Philly appeared first on Crossing Broad .
