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.

Also perhaps even more depressing. Because trading AJ Brown isn’t going to make them better.

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 Jim’s defense lost enough guys, and they drafted enough Jerome McDougles and Matt McCoys, that the unit wasn’t good.

I have created a diorama of the Partridge family attacking the Brady Bunch family. My life is very boring.

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 β€œwe all knew the Eagles were gonna lose this guy and this guy and that guy” doesn’t mean everything is gonna be ok. It really doesn’t.
Even Howie Roseman’s powers are limited.

What’s happening to the Eagles’ roster right now highlights the chance they blew to defend their title last season. They had enough talent.
Yeah, injuries, but, fact is, I don’t think anyone will pick them to be as good or better this year.

because I got curious: that cap hit for Tua would have been the entirety of a team’s salary cap in 2001

Kinda doubting it. But I was thinking mostly about the pass-rush equation, Campbell maybe playing some edge and Dean’s blitzing maybe being more crucial. Wasn’t thinking overall roster.

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 Jones’ 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

The nagging shrill lady who won't let them do cool things like stick their heads in ovens, the cat's tail in electrical outlets, or play on train tracks

Every time Trump gets on the phone with a new reporter we’re 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.

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
