Pathetic Braves Fans Should Be Able to Fill Their Stadium for a Playoff Game Whether it’s 2 P.M. or 2 A.M.
Admittedly, this story would hit better if the Phillies held on to win Game 1 in Cobb County, but it’s so pathetic how Braves fans can’t fill up their stadium for a playoff game: Tons of empty seats at first pitch. That’s the first photo. Then the second photo was after the Phils went up […] The post Pathetic Braves Fans Should Be Able to Fill Their Stadium for a Playoff Game Whether it’s 2 P.M. or 2 A.M. appeared first on Crossing Broad .
Here’s All the Best Stuff the Porter Martone Players’ Tribune Article
Porter Martone seems destined to be a pretty beloved Flyer, and the Players’ Tribune article with his name on it is only helping his case. The second-year winger’s letter to Philly fans ran on Tuesday morning, and it had a good amount of standout moments in there. Here’s what popped to me: PHILLY!! HELLO!! Good […] The post Here’s All the Best Stuff the Porter Martone Players’ Tribune Article appeared first on Crossing Broad .
I’m Not Even Mad, Bro (Just Disappointed)
They had ’em! For 7.9999999 innings, it felt like maaaaybe the Phillies’ postseason magic against the Braves had made a rapid return Tuesday afternoon in Atlanta. After J.T. Realmuto’s two-run triple in the 7th inning, and Jhoan Durán escaping with five outs (with one left to get in the bottom of the 8th), I started […] The post I’m Not Even Mad, Bro (Just Disappointed) appeared first on Crossing Broad .
Heartbreaking: Phillies Fall 5-3 to Braves on Austin Riley Go-Ahead Homer
The Phillies opened the 2026 postseason on the road in Atlanta, facing the division-rival Braves in a best-of-three Wild Card series. The Phillies had them on the ropes, taking a 3-2 lead into the 8th inning, but a heartbreaking 3-run home run from Austin Riley pushed the Braves to a 5-3 win. 10 thoughts from […] The post Heartbreaking: Phillies Fall 5-3 to Braves on Austin Riley Go-Ahead Homer appeared first on Crossing Broad .
Trying to Decipher How Bad This Eagles Defense is
The Eagles defense looked like dogshit on Monday night. No takeaways, no sacks, the Bears running all over them, Case Keenum lighting them up for chunk plays, etc., etc. Bad stuff. And it has me wondering just how bad this Birds’ D is. Weren’t they pretty solid through the first two games? Those numbers were […] The post Trying to Decipher How Bad This Eagles Defense is appeared first on Crossing Broad .
Do Not Let Ben Simmons Rewrite History
It’s been quite a bit of time since Ben Simmons has been relevant in the national sports discourse. He last suited up for an NBA game on April 29th, 2025, in which he tallied zero points, zero assists, and one rebound across 4:42 of game action with the Los Angeles Clippers. Simmons spent last season […] The post Do Not Let Ben Simmons Rewrite History appeared first on Crossing Broad .
Ranking Jaylen Brown’s Side Quests Ahead of the Sixers Season
Flashback to nearly five months ago, and it was Joel Embiid talking trash to Jaylen Brown as the Sixers completed a 3-1 series comeback to defeat the Celtics in the postseason for the first time in this era of basketball. The two will now be suiting up on the same side, with LeBron James joining […] The post Ranking Jaylen Brown’s Side Quests Ahead of the Sixers Season appeared first on Crossing Broad .
Nick Sirianni’s 4th Down Decision Making Was Bad
Every part of the Eagles’ loss to the Bears on Monday night was bad. The offense, the defense, the run game, the screen game, the refs/concussion protocol — all of it. But that’s not to say that every awful moment of bad football was equal across the board. Some sequences were way more infuriating than […] The post Nick Sirianni’s 4th Down Decision Making Was Bad appeared first on Crossing Broad .
Be Honest With Yourself and Admit that You’d Call This a Clean Hit if an Eagle Delivered it
I’m probably gonna killed for this, but I don’t care. The discussion about the Jalen Hurts hit is so painfully binary. The overwhelming majority of Eagles fans called this a late hit or a dirty hit and went apoplectic on social: This is 2nd and 4. The hit takes place right at the 1st down […] The post Be Honest With Yourself and Admit that You’d Call This a Clean Hit if an Eagle Delivered it appeared first on Crossing Broad .

Nick Sirianni Remorseful for Saying “You’re a Pussy” After Hard Hit on Jalen Hurts
From T Mac at ESPN: CHICAGO — Philadelphia Eagles coach Nick Sirianni expressed “remorse” over his reaction to the sideline hit by Chicago Bears linebacker D’Marco Jackson on Jalen Hurts that temporarily knocked his quarterback out of the game midway through the second quarter Monday night. Cameras showed Sirianni appearing to shout expletives toward Jackson […] The post Nick Sirianni Remorseful for Saying “You’re a Pussy” After Hard Hit on Jalen Hurts appeared first on Crossing Broad .
If the Eagles Throw Another Stupid Sideways Pass I’m Tossing My Television Off the Comcast Building
Monday night was one of those games that we don’t talk about after this week. Kind of like “Bruno” from that Disney movie. We don’t talk about Bruno and we don’t talk about this game. The offense was bad, the defense was bad, the players were bad, and the coaching was bad. But one thing […] The post If the Eagles Throw Another Stupid Sideways Pass I’m Tossing My Television Off the Comcast Building appeared first on Crossing Broad .
Fart Noise – 22 Immediate Takeaways from Whatever the Final Score Ends Up Being
That sucked! The Eagles got smoked by a third-string quarterback. The offense was bad, the defense was bad, the refs were bad, and the concussion spotter was bad. The quarterback was bad. Special teams was bad. The coaching was bad. The energy and compete level was bad. Everything was bad! Nothing was good. Now we […] The post Fart Noise – 22 Immediate Takeaways from Whatever the Final Score Ends Up Being appeared first on Crossing Broad .
Philadelphia Phillies: The (Almost) Chokers Who Could Be Champions
The dismal and dreary weather this past weekend seemed to augur a depressing ending to the Phillies’ 2026 season. The impossible now felt inevitable, and a collapse for the ages loomed on the horizon. Just a week prior, the Phillies held a five-game lead for the final playoff seed with eight to play. They jockeyed […] The post Philadelphia Phillies: The (Almost) Chokers Who Could Be Champions appeared first on Crossing Broad .

Luis Arraez is Not on the Phillies Wild Card Roster
Phillies 2nd baseman Luis Arraez is not on the Wild Card roster, Don Mattingly told reporters in Atlanta just moments ago. Otto Kemp will take his spot and the Phillies will carry three catchers. Arraez went down on an awkward play at first base on Thursday vs. the Milwaukee Brewers and has not played since.

Did Not Expect the Department of Homeland Security to Lay Korn’s Music Over Brian Dawkins Highlights in a Migrant Caravan Tweet (UPDATED)
This is out there: Putting aside politics momentarily, this video spoke to me as an Elder Millennial. Here we have Brian Dawkins obliterating various Packers, Panthers, Giants, and the like as Korn’s “Blind” plays in the background. Hell yes! Great video. It works at a bestial level, which, perhaps, is what the DHS was going […] The post Did Not Expect the Department of Homeland Security to Lay Korn’s Music Over Brian Dawkins Highlights in a Migrant Caravan Tweet (UPDATED) appeared first on ...
Temple, Penn State, Delaware, Villanova, and Penn Had an 0-5 Football Weekend
Tweeted this out last week: All five teams lost. Two of them blew second-half home leads. Army 21, Temple 17 Temple just doesn’t know how to finish a game. That’s twice in two weeks now that they’ve had a late lead and couldn’t get the job done. Last week, it was a two-touchdown collapse in […] The post Temple, Penn State, Delaware, Villanova, and Penn Had an 0-5 Football Weekend appeared first on Crossing Broad .
Even With Five Starters Missing, the Union Clobbered Another Opponent and Set a Franchise Record
There’s a lot going on this week with the Eagles on Monday Night Football, the Sixers hosting Media Day, and the Phillies playing the Braves at 2 p.m. because the MLB schedule makes are idiots. But the Union deserve a blog post because they beat the brakes off Orlando City on Saturday night, extending their […] The post Even With Five Starters Missing, the Union Clobbered Another Opponent and Set a Franchise Record appeared first on Crossing Broad .
What Should Sixers Fans Realistically Expect From LeBron James this Season?
It still does not feel completely real that LeBron James is going to be suiting up for the Philadelphia 76ers this season. The 22-time All-Star, four-time NBA champion, four-time MVP, and greatest player of all time will write the final chapter of his storied career in the City of Brotherly Love. He’s joining a team […] The post What Should Sixers Fans Realistically Expect From LeBron James this Season? appeared first on Crossing Broad .
Phillies Temperature Check: Just Win, Baby
I was bereft Saturday night after the Phillies got embarrassed once again on national television – this time by the Tampa Bay Rays. I really thought they were going to complete a collapse that the city of Philly hasn’t seen since 1964. I wasn’t born yet, so this would have been the worst Phillies collapse […] The post Phillies Temperature Check: Just Win, Baby appeared first on Crossing Broad .
Ruffled Feathers as Phillies Fans and the Ghost Energy Guy Yell at Each Other on Twitter
This is a minor kerfuffle that was brought to our attention on social. It begins with Phillies fan “Bad Pancake,” who jokingly says that the Phils’ skid was because of the Ghost Energy Deck taking over Harry the K’s. Then a second Phillies fan, “Paul,” tags the founder of Ghost Energy, Dan Lourenco, and tells […] The post Ruffled Feathers as Phillies Fans and the Ghost Energy Guy Yell at Each Other on Twitter appeared first on Crossing Broad .
