Clearly retailers are gouging at this point. Oil at roughly $100 a barrel does NOT justify these prices.

If Philly blows this it will go down as one of the greatest chokes in the history of sports.

Ok panicans, Gas prices will be down below $2.50 a gallon before the midterms excluding blue states with their high gasoline taxes. As a matter of fact, gas prices won't even be a issue by the time November 3rd rolls around.

@toglesby27 @BarstoolPhilly nuh uhh

@BarstoolPhilly You need the Union and the Kentucky Derby in there.

GAMEDAY. GO SIXERS. GO FLYERS. GO PHILS.

@BoopStats make it happen Bobby!!

*** HOPING THAT I CAN STOP POSTING THIS AFTER SATURDAY NIGHT -- No Sixers team without either Wilt Chamberlain or Julius Erving has ever beaten the Celtics in a playoff series . . .

@FirstSquawk world war 2 or 11?

US national debt surpasses size of the entire United States GDP for first time since World War II.

One can of soda = 12 minutes of lost life expectancy. A research using the Health Nutritional Index has revealed a sobering link between sugary drinks and lifespan. According to the findings, drinking just one can of cola is associated with a 12-minute reduction in life expectancy. Backed by data from the University of Leicester, this figure represents the cumulative metabolic damage caused by high sugar intake — including increased risks of insulin resistance, obesity, heart disease, and type 2 diabetes. It’s not an immediate effect, but rather a reflection of how regular consumption slowly chips away at long-term health. While the “12 minutes per can” headline is designed to grab attention, experts stress that the real danger lies in daily habits. By converting abstract health risks into a concrete measure of lost time, researchers hope to make the long-term consequences of sugary beverages feel more real and urgent. [Stylianou, K.

@HowieBurner this team got old fast…not Rob’s fault Topper’s biggest mistake that i’ll never forgive him for was pulling Wheeler in the world series

This season is not all on Rob, nor is the postseason failures. He had his faults but I put a large part of the blame on Dombrowski and Long

@ifilmbands @cvpayne he got mad at me when I said he’s over leveraging a cyclical business…guess what buddy, you did

@georgejcip @cvpayne From $45 to $7, but hey, a lot of military families won RVs! 😆

+30% in after hours before trading. Damn, Marcus you did your thing. Congratulations

@Rainmaker1973 yeah but could they calculate % declines? x.com/atrupar/status…

The Rhind Mathematical Papyrus is the oldest manuscript written in algebra and trigonometry, dating back to 3,550 years ago. It shows that the Egyptians used first-order equations, geometric series and a second-order algebraic equation, related to the Pythagorean theorem a² + b² = c² It also describes how to obtain an approximation of π accurate to within less than 1% and one of the earliest attempts at squaring the circle.

@YahooFinance of course he does…let me guess, lower, right?

@JeffKerrPHL -53 run differential with the next worst team at -29 is just mindnumbing

Someone in the #Phillies organization is going to take the fall for this start. Just remember, the players are the ones not performing. BA — .221 (29th in #MLB) OBP — .298 (28th) OPS — .663 (26th) ERA — 5.14 (28th) SP ERA — 5.68 (28th) Defensive runs saved — -16 (30th)

The #Phillies have been playing baseball since 1883. The franchise has never lost 10 consecutive games in the month of April. Until 2026.
