Philadelphia sports have been my #1 source of dopamine since 2019, so as you may have guessed, things arent great. I push boulder up hill, it roll down, repeat

I dont have the words to capture how terrible of a roster Dave Dombrowski built. The 2025 Phillies have no shot at a WS. The efforts to salvage this year will decimate the farm. Players w/ no business in the MLB will continue to have major roles. The Phillies are royally fucked

Late on this but Kentucky being gifted a victory simply for being a blue blood school is classic NCAA. Santa Clara got screwed

Flyers fans need to realize the NHL will never allow them to win a draft lottery and whenever possible the league will try to lower their draft position. It is an intentional bias toward them and it has nothing to do with anything on ice (cont)

The Flyers literally won a draft lottery in recent memory. It was a significant jump up. These sort of defeatist conspiracy theories to reverse engineer an excuse for why the Flyers shouldn’t just rebuild normally are pathetic.

Us on this app consistently evaluating draft talent better than the Flyers is the equivalent of the Moneyball era A’s smacking around the current Dodgers in the WS every year It’s not something that should ever happen. So yeah, it does bug me a lot

@_ChrisMaher Yes they are. 16th in the league with eliet youth at every position. Philly is riding 28+ year olds into the sunset (and not getting anywhere) at the expense of developing the limited high end youth they have

Signing Vladar completely ruined the Flyers’ ability to actually get any better. Cant believe how unlucky this team is

Imagine coaching a multi-time MVP and still not being able to land an NFL OC gig, but frauds like Hackett and Patullo can land them.
Jordan Schultz@Schultz_Report

Sources: Former #Ravens QBs coach Tee Martin is being hired by Lane Kiffin as an offensive analyst at LSU. Martin, who has been in Baltimore since 2021, now returns to the college ranks and reunites with Kiffin, who hired him at USC back in 2012.

@ChaseDaniel @NFLPA It’s crazy that you were a terrible quarterback, are currently a terrible media talking head, & you know absolutely nothing about the union you were a part of for many years. You really are bad at everything

@NFLPA Talked about this earlier this week — JC Tretter checks every box: smart, respected, and understands the business. Huge move for the NFLPA.

This was from JC Tretter's CBS exit interview last July, after @pablofindsout reported that he'd been scheming to get the Executive Director job this whole time. An incredible quote that is now even funnier:

After resigning amid scandal last year, JC Tretter is, as predicted, the new Executive Director of the NFLPA. To understand why: listen to Craig Jones — the 17-year security officer this union fired — who dared to call out Tretter and a corrupt regime 👀 youtu.be/ON-dN5xO7rg?si…

Flyers Nation@FlyersNation·
Daniel Briere and Keith Jones have both alluded in the past few days that fans are impatient and want to win “next year”…emphasizing that these things don’t happen overnight. This couldn’t be further from the truth...most fans on here are just rightfully questioning where the 1C and 1D are coming from. We know these things don’t happen overnight. We’d be more than happy to suffer long-term because the franchise hasn’t made the 2nd round with fans in attendance for 14 years. But they’re doing another retool and never rebuilt. Our only top five pick (Chuck’s pick) is in Anaheim. The organization thought they would make the playoffs this year (still a 5.4% chance). Now we’re most likely drafting in the mushy middle again. The cap space cleared means nothing if there’s no free agents available to move the needle. Briere can still pull off trades to make this happen, but we all know “trades are hard” and there’s quite a few teams with better assets to pick from. They jumped the gun on a few extensions and didn’t draft high enough. Now we’re stuck in this boat again. I’m sure Martone and Michkov will be electric #Flyers long-term, but winger is the least valuable position and it’s our only surplus. Could the Flyers make the playoffs a couple of times in the next few years? Maybe, I guess. Is there a perennial contender forming here? Extremely unlikely…they weren’t bad enough.

Flyers President of Hockey Operations Keith Jones on if he is happy with the state of the rebuild for the Flyers: “I do, I think we all would love to rush it and make it happen quicker, but that’s not the way it is and the environment we’re in today. One of the things that we’re really happy about, is we are alleviating a lot of the cap pressure that we have had in the past. A lot of the deals that we had to work out of including the Kevin Hayes deal, the Ryan Ellis deal, the Cam Atkinson deal, all that money is starting to come off the books. That I’m really excited about, and that was one of the objectives Danny [Briere] and I had when we took over, was to clean up the [bad contracts]… The other part of it was to add younger talent and to accumulate draft picks, and we’re starting to put those picks into play. Allowing the players enough time to fully develop, not to rush them, but to watch them grow, and hope that our assessment of where they will end up in the future align and they’ll end up being a big parts of the franchise as we move forward. Those things I think are all in a really good place and I’m really excited about the future". (Kincade & Salciunas) 📸 - Emilee Chinn/Getty Images
