Also perhaps even more depressing. Because trading AJ Brown isnβt going to make them better.

That old guy who still writes about the Philadelphia Eagles, now for PHLY. Annoys w/dad jokes, social commentary. Fan of what Twitter used to be. Also of rescue Pit Bulls. Husband/dad. Grew up in the South way back when progress actually seemed possible.

FOUR teams have yet to sign a free agent off another roster since the negotiation window opened Monday:
Broncos
Seahawks
Eagles
Jaguars

goddamn is this a breath of fresh air after Allred 2024
You could be a pro athlete! Thatβs trick No. 1.
Jayson goes deep on the Phillies, including my favorite Trea Turner-ism: "I can attest that nobody knows anything."
The handling of those OL injuries is the unsolved mystery of the season for me. If u let them heal for a month or so & the offense struggles w/backups, everyone understands that. Maybe there was no amount of rest that would have worked.
What they did was the OL equivalent of pitching Mitch Williams.
Eventually Jimβs defense lost enough guys, and they drafted enough Jerome McDougles and Matt McCoys, that the unit wasnβt good.
Shai Gilgeous Alexander Graham Bell because he called game ππ€£
"Large muscular people. You wouldn't believe how swole they are. All wearing hard hats. Tears running down their chiseled cheeks, they cry out to me "For the love of God, sir, Save America!"
Nobody really wants that
Figurines of Brady Bunch and Partridge Family fighting each other
I have created a diorama of the Partridge family attacking the Brady Bunch family. My life is very boring.
The response isβ¦.comprehensive.
everyone is extraordinarily desperate to pretend that Donald Trump is a coherent individual with a real plan who understands what is happening in the world and none of that is true
Not gonna go talk-radio-level screechy on this, but βwe all knew the Eagles were gonna lose this guy and this guy and that guyβ doesnβt mean everything is gonna be ok. It really doesnβt.
Even Howie Rosemanβs powers are limited.
Whatβs happening to the Eaglesβ roster right now highlights the chance they blew to defend their title last season. They had enough talent.
Yeah, injuries, but, fact is, I donβt think anyone will pick them to be as good or better this year.
market people are fucking hilarious you could tell them the moon was discovered to be made out of rare pokemon cards and they'd boost trading cards stock 90000%
because I got curious: that cap hit for Tua would have been the entirety of a teamβs salary cap in 2001
YIKES
He went from βunconditional surrenderβ and βI must pick their new leaderβ to full βjust declare victory and get the hell outβ TACO Trump.
Kinda doubting it. But I was thinking mostly about the pass-rush equation, Campbell maybe playing some edge and Deanβs blitzing maybe being more crucial. Wasnβt thinking overall roster.
Hey, Percival Everett is coming to Rutgers-Camden in a couple weeks

Wondering if the Phillips signing with Carolina changes the Nakobe Dean situation at all, re the Eagles
The Colts are re-signing wide receiver Alec Pierce, per sources.
The top free agent WR on the market, Pierce made it clear that Daniel Jonesβ presence in Indy would factor into his decision. After his first 1,000-yard season in 2025, he elects to re-up with the Colts.
Following the 'ruled by 12 year olds' theory, these men genuinely think the rules-based international order is like their mum

Every time Trump gets on the phone with a new reporter weβre hearing the weirdest mix of a misremembered classified briefing video the CIA makes for him, part of a text he just got from Lindsey Graham, and the last three nouns he heard on Fox News.
Down 666 points is a little on the nose.
love how we killed the old, frail anti-nuke ayatollah just to have him replaced with his young, healthy son who wants nukes and who just had his father, mother, wife, and child murdered on the same day by his mortal enemy. surely this will bring peace to the region
