Less than three months after LeBron, AD and the Lakers won the NBA championship in the wildest season ever—the 2020-2021 NBA season is upon us and the landscape looks nothing like last year. With teams shuffling marquee names left and right, the NBA will look very different this year—especially in […]

Is Daryl Morey really going to trade Ben Simmons for James Harden? Trade Simmons?!? After all the tank ball and “Trusting the process” Daryl Morey is just going to up and trade one of the few unicorns in the league for a guy who WILL NOT pass the ball. Ever. […]

Week 13 is here and the Eags are…breaking my heart! In a division that bodes a 36% win percentage (which is good for a TIE for 1st, by the way) the Eagles find themselves in the bottom half. I was holding onto hope that the football gods would shine down […]

It seems too early to be saying this but: The Philadelphia 76ers are re-tooling their organization from the top on down. After years and years of tanking turmoil and “trusting the process” which yielded marginal results and a HUGE draft miss #JasonTatum. Scapegoats have been made and firings have happened. […]

Ladies and Gents, It’s time once again for another edition of “Eag Bowl” and I couldn’t be more terrified. Philly hosts Seattle on Monday Night Football—a game that will feature the best and worst play at the quarterback position. On one end of the spectrum we have Russell Wilson, who […]

Something is wrong in Philadelphia. No, not the vote count—-the team is not clicking and they need to right the ship. How? A shake up at quarterback ? Hand the play calls over to Deuce—or let Carson call his own plays?? The Eags need a spark!! How do you lose […]

The 2020 NFL season has officially hit the halfway point as week 9 begins with a Packers/Niners matchup, reminiscent of the late 90s battles with Terrell Owens and Steve Young taking on Brett Favre on the sloppy, muddy turf of Candlestick Park…oh memories… But that’s not why we’re here!! The […]

The Golden State Warriors are still really good, y’all. Sorry to rain on the Lakers’ parade and all of that but…the Warriors are going to be a force in 2021. Despite Kevin Durant heading east to Brooklyn to team up with Kyrie Irving *I’m cautiously optimistic about that pairing…frankly any […]

A few Chicagoans are still nursing a hangover from the night on the town courtesy of Jon Lester. Lester bought 3,466 beers at a Chicago bar as a thank you to the city after the Cubs declined Laster’s fifth year option on his contract which effectively ends Lester’s time in […]

LaMelo Ball and Puma have signed a deal worth “$100,000,000” and I can’t accept that number as truth. Not when Zion Williamson is out here signing $75,000,000 deals. Zion is a far better player and a bigger draw. Puma’s brass has declined reports that say 100 million. Though he did […]

The Ravens ‘beat’ the Eagles 26-15 in Philly Thursday night and the Eags have found their back up quarterback. Mother Nature didn’t want to see the Ravens lose a 26-point lead in a two quarters of preseason football so, she opened the skies and stopped the Eagles comeback dead in […]
