Shameless Rage Bait from Boston’s “The Ringer” Ranks Sixers 10th in NBA, Celtics 4th

The Ringer is a website founded by Bill Simmons, the sports writer/podcaster whose whole thing is being a Boston guy. That being the case, the media company’s bias for Boston sports is extreme. So extreme that I’ve always found it kind of funny. I like The Ringer. I get a kick out of Bill’s insane/old […] The post Shameless Rage Bait from Boston’s “The Ringer” Ranks Sixers 10th in NBA, Celtics 4th appeared first on Crossing Broad .

Jayden Daniels and Jaxson Dart both went down with Week 2injuries, and their teammates’ opposite reactions were extremely interesting: A few thoughts on these very different reactions: On the flip side, look how upset the whole Giants team is: The post Commanders and Giants Offer Fascinatingly Different Reactions to Their QBs Going Down Injured appeared first on Crossing Broad .

Big Carm Calls a Wednesday Press Conference to Discuss Eagles Tailgating Changes (UPDATED)

We mentioned last week on the site that changes are coming to the Eagles tailgating scene. It was something that had been previously mentioned by a handful of people, among them Big Carm and Philly Captain, who noted that hand parking is coming to the lots, along with new restrictions on oversized vehicles. I don’t […] The post Big Carm Calls a Wednesday Press Conference to Discuss Eagles Tailgating Changes (UPDATED) appeared first on Crossing Broad .

Eagles Season Ticket Holders Will Indeed Be Receiving a 2026 Gift

I got a couple of emails last week from disgruntled Eagles season ticket holders, who said they didn’t receive anything this season. One guy wrote that “We got stiffed this year for the first time I can remember.” However, it looks like the Birds are just operating on a later schedule this year, because this […] The post Eagles Season Ticket Holders Will Indeed Be Receiving a 2026 Gift appeared first on Crossing Broad .

The Eagles are Really Bad on 1st Down and Really Good on 3rd Down – What’s Going On There?

Shawn Syed of Sumer Sports shared this stat, and it’s a pretty interesting one: That’s a big discrepancy between early and late downs, and it sounds right to me. Going off eye test alone, it does feel like the Eagles have been particularly bad on first downs, but keep finding ways to extend drives on […] The post The Eagles are Really Bad on 1st Down and Really Good on 3rd Down – What’s Going On There? appeared first on Crossing Broad .

Zach Ertz 2.0 Felt Like an Eagles Inevitability

If you missed it last night because you were under a rock, hiking deep in the woods, or living in La La Land, the Eagles are bringing back Zach Ertz in place of the injured Dallas Goedert, who is expected to be out for a couple of weeks: It sure would be nice if 2nd […] The post Zach Ertz 2.0 Felt Like an Eagles Inevitability appeared first on Crossing Broad .

The Delaware Blue Hens and Penn Quakers Deserve a Blog Post

Weird Monday? We’ve hit on the Eagles, Phillies, Flyers, Union, and Waterdogs. And if we’re giving credit where it’s due, Delaware football and Penn football both deserve a shout after the weekends they had. Cockfight in the Tub The Hens are a solid football team, now 2-1 with wins over Coastal Carolina and Merrimack. They […] The post The Delaware Blue Hens and Penn Quakers Deserve a Blog Post appeared first on Crossing Broad .

The Turf Temperature in Tennessee Reached a Cleat-Melting 157 Degrees

The FOX broadcast mentioned a few times how hot the field was during the Eagles/Titans game on Sunday, which, if I’m being honest, I thought was baby stuff. “These are world-class athletes,” I thought to myself. “Just drink some water… they have all kinds of water on those benches… Not to mention Gatorade…. They have […] The post The Turf Temperature in Tennessee Reached a Cleat-Melting 157 Degrees appeared first on Crossing Broad .

A Pulse Check on the Phillies’ Bullpen

The Phillies have six games left in the regular season, and it’s nearly impossible for them to miss the postseason. The magic number is down to 3 with six games to go against the Brewers and Rays. The vibes right now are… not great. The offense has returned to their stagnant ways, although they did […] The post A Pulse Check on the Phillies’ Bullpen appeared first on Crossing Broad .

Rick Tocchet Asks for a Hockey Puck that Allows Guys Like David Jiricek to Shoot in Practice Without Killing Teammates

With Flyers training camp underway in Voorhees, head coach Rick Tocchet sounds a little frustrated by some of the limitations his team’s been running into in practice. Namely, Tocchet lamented the fact that power play units can’t go all-out because no one wants to get hurt by a hard slap shot from the point – […] The post Rick Tocchet Asks for a Hockey Puck that Allows Guys Like David Jiricek to Shoot in Practice Without Killing Teammates appeared first on Crossing Broad .

Who Gives a Rat’s Ass About a Meaningless USA Game when the Union are on the Verge of Setting a Franchise Record?

You want the good news or the bad news? Let’s do the good news first. Philadelphia Union homegrown trio Cavan Sullivan, Frankie Westfield, and Neil Pierre were all called into the USA’s senior team camp for the first time. It’s a very nice moment for three promising young players. The bad news is that they’ll […] The post Who Gives a Rat’s Ass About a Meaningless USA Game when the Union are on the Verge of Setting a Franchise Record? appeared first on Crossing Broad .

We’re Claiming the Waterdogs’ Premier Lacrosse League Title as a Philadelphia Championship

Hang the banner: Looks like they totally thumped this Denver squad. Wasn’t even close. Now let’s see… does this team even play in Philadelphia? Apparently they do not. They do a tour-based model in the Premier Lacrosse League, so there’s not even a home venue for the Wooderdogs. They did, however, come to Philadelphia this […] The post We’re Claiming the Waterdogs’ Premier Lacrosse League Title as a Philadelphia Championship appeared first on Crossing Broad .

The Eagles Have Thrown Seven Screen Passes This Season for -15 Yards

We did a story last week titled “The Eagles Might Be the Worst Bubble Screen Team in All of Football (College and Pro).” That was after they tried three screens in the season opener for a grand total of -11 yards. Two targets went to Makai Lemon and the third was to Saquon Barkley. Let’s […] The post The Eagles Have Thrown Seven Screen Passes This Season for -15 Yards appeared first on Crossing Broad .

Maybe it’s Curtains for Orion Kerkering’s Phillies Tenure

The moment after Orion Kerkering threw the ball to the backstop in Los Angeles last October, I didn’t feel rage. I wasn’t mad, just disappointed. The Phillies had been setting us up for that heartbreaking moment since Game 1 of the NLDS. I just sat there and watched. Watched the Dodgers celebrate around a crestfallen […] The post Maybe it’s Curtains for Orion Kerkering’s Phillies Tenure appeared first on Crossing Broad .

That Was an Emotional Rollercoaster of a Day For Jeffery Simmons

Jeffery Simmons had himself quite a week. First, he told the media that the Titans would be just fine in Week 2 if they could “make Jalen Hurts be a quarterback,” which was either a fair defensive plan or bulletin board material, depending on how you felt like looking at it/if you were trying to […] The post That Was an Emotional Rollercoaster of a Day For Jeffery Simmons appeared first on Crossing Broad .

DeVonta Smith Went Full Superstar on the Game-Winning Drive

That was a weird one. The Eagles win it in Tennessee 24-20, and sitting here thinking back on the game I just watched, I’m not exactly sure how the Birds got that W. No one played particularly well. Jalen Hurts threw two interceptions. The offensive line got worked all afternoon (Jalen was sacked 3 times […] The post DeVonta Smith Went Full Superstar on the Game-Winning Drive appeared first on Crossing Broad .

Drew Brees Thought Jalen Hurts Should Have Lowered His Shoulder and Plowed Over Multiple Titans

This sequence from Sunday’s game got some buzz on social media, and probably at your watch party: Context – It’s NFL Week 2. Second quarter of a 7-7 ballgame in Tennessee with a little under seven minutes on the clock. 3rd and 9, Jalen Hurts decides to take off and start running.

Jalen Hurts Once Again Finds a Way to Win

The box score says Jalen Hurts went 26-37 for 264 yards, two touchdowns, and two interceptions in Tennessee. He added five carries for 16 yards. But the line that really matters is this one: 6-8, 61 yards and a touchdown, one carry for four yards That was the final drive, the game-winning drive that went […] The post Jalen Hurts Once Again Finds a Way to Win appeared first on Crossing Broad .

Nice, We Won – 20 Immediate Observations from Eagles 24, Titans 20

The Eagles won. How? They didn’t even play that well! They were down 20-17 with two minutes left and no timeouts. Then Jalen Hurts said “I got this” and led a nine-play, 65-yard drive to not just get the field goal and tie it up, but win it OUTRIGHT with some brilliant playmaking from DeVonta […] The post Nice, We Won – 20 Immediate Observations from Eagles 24, Titans 20 appeared first on Crossing Broad .

Not a Hot Take or Clickbait: I Believe Temple’s Choke Job Was Worse than NC State’s Choke Job

Temple was up 42-28 with less than two minutes remaining in Toledo and lost the game 49-48 in overtime. Outrageous! Here’s how it happened: The clip didn’t include this incredible Ajani Sheppard run, which preceded the failed two-point conversion. Sheppard played the entire game because Jaxon Smolik left during the first series: K.C. Keeler said […] The post Not a Hot Take or Clickbait: I Believe Temple’s Choke Job Was Worse than NC State’s Choke Job appeared first on Crossing Broad .
