Actually, Ruben Amaro Was Very Into Analytics, Says Ruben Amaro
Ruben Amaro, Jr. took over as Phillies GM right after they won the World Series in 2008, and for a few years maintained that success. But as the Phillies’ core aged, Amaro made a string of terrible moves, to the point where the Phillies were one of the worst teams in baseball the past three seasons,...
Eagles-Dolphins Trade Could Be Off Because Of Byron Maxwell's Shoulder
The NFL’s two-day “legal tampering period,” on top of having a silly name, is a silly idea. It’s designed for teams to talk to agents before free agency officially opens, but they’re not supposed to agree to deals, not even in principle. They always do, of course—that’s why those deals are officiall...
Eagles' Trades Show Who's Really Running The Team
It was a year ago, in the span of one crazy week, when the Eagles signed DeMarco Murray and Byron Maxwell and traded for Kiko Alonso. They were the crown jewels of Chip Kelly’s first offseason after winning a power struggle for control of Philadelphia’s personnel decisions. Now, in the span of a day...

NFL Player Earl Wolff Was Kidnapped At Gunpoint Last Month In North Carolina
Earl Wolff, a safety out of N.C. State who has played for the Eagles and the Jaguars, was the victim of an armed kidnapping on February 23. According to a report yesterday from the Fayetteville Observer, Wolff was visiting friends when armed men forced him into his car. Police are unsure how long he...

Eighty-Year-Old Woman Who Threw Bra On Ice Gives Hilarious, Raunchy Interview
A few nights ago, Brayden Schenn scored a hat trick as the Philadelphia Flyers beat the Flames 5-3. More importantly, an older woman was captured on tape throwing a leopard print bra onto the ice to celebrate. Well, the folks from the Cold Pizza-like TV show Breakfast on Broad tracked Flyers fan Ann...
I Think These Sixers Fans Have Stockholm Syndrome
What is the saddest thing?...
The Pistons Are Voiding A Three-Way Trade, And It Has Hilarious Consequences
One of the “bigger” NBA trades from the snooze-fest of a trade deadline was a three-way deal among Detroit, Houston, and Philadelphia. This is how the trade looked: ...
Report: District Attorney And Police Department At Odds Over LeSean McCoy Case
The Philadelphia District Attorney’s office has been noticeably silent regarding its plans for LeSean McCoy. News of the bar fight he was allegedly involved in broke over a week ago, and that was quickly followed by reports that charges against McCoy were imminent. But there hasn’t been any movement...
Hey, Maybe It's Time To Suspend Radko Gudas Again
Radko Gudas hits people, sometimes (often?) crossing the line from physical to dirty. It’s how he plays, and it’s how he’s going to play until told not to—or until some sort of discipline gets to him. I think it’s about time for the Flyers defenseman to have a few unpaid days off, after his latest d...
The Sixers Realize They're A Big Joke, Are Now Maybe Trying To Fix That
The Philadelphia 76ers, those smirking pioneers of a remarkably misguided, anti-fun, actuarial, game theory-ass approach to NBA basketball, are now starting to realize that you can’t exactly build a winning basketball team while ignoring, well, the basketball. Back in December, the NBA more or less ...

Dead Letters: Sixers Beat Warriors Edition
This past Saturday, the reigning NBA champion Golden State Warriors blew a 24-point lead to the lowly Philadelphia 76ers, needing a last-second Harrison Barnes three-pointer to dispatch the Association’s most consistently-pathetic team. In a season full of Warriors blowout wins, allowing that kind o...
Brawl Breaks Out At The Wing Bowl
The Wing Bowl, Philadelphia’s annual chicken wing eating contest which you should probably avoid at all costs, happened today at Wells Fargo Center. (Molly Schuyler won by eating 429 wings.) There was also a fight in the stands, presumably over something very important....
