Kruk: you know what I found out at the Franklin Institute?

TMac: you went to the Franklin Institute?

Kruk: I did. If someone is attacking you, 25 lbs of pressure and you can rip their ear off

TMac: …

Kruk: same amount of pressure to open a pickle jar

[mere hours after watching the Phillies season end up close]

Ben Wyatt from Parks & Rec holding up a doll he made and asking if you think a depressed person could have made it, likely after watching the Phillies season implode bc a pitcher forgot he could just pick up a ball and throw it to first base for the third out in extra innings of a win-or-go-home playoff game at stupid Dodger Stadium that is actually lovely stadium usually but right now is also stupid and dumb

Attending Game 4.

Will *not* be having a Dodger dog.

Bringing my own scrapple to eat raw and strike fear into the hearts of the enemy.

naturally Schwarbs had to balance the bonehead base running account. Those are the rules

Jawn Gonzalez @johngonzalez.bsky.social · 5d

after an entire season Bryce Harper Yakety Sax base running finally pays off lmao way to play the long game

you had a good run

Jawn Gonzalez @johngonzalez.bsky.social · 5d

Two plans for tonight. Outcome dependent:

1.) Aaron Nola and the Philadelphia Phillies win a baseball game. Huzzah.

2.) They do not win a baseball game and we wade out into the Pacific and let the tide take us out. Ah sweet relief.

Reading up on the Sixers with a nice cup of warm bleach.

Has the Philadelphia 76ers’ Window Already Closed?

Can a new approach salvage this Sixers era? Or is history doomed to repeat itself with Joel Embiid and Paul George? “We realize we’re in the prove-it phase,” says Daryl Morey.

non-zero chance he comes back with a hook for a hand

Paul Hudrick @paulhudrick.bsky.social · 18d

From ESPN's Tim Bontemps:

Philadelphia 76ers guard Jared McCain suffered a UCL tear in his right thumb during a workout today, sources told ESPN. He and the team are working with specialists to decide how they will proceed, sources said.

"People act like Joel Embiid lost a leg, or died."

Perfect lede no notes.

It is unlocked newsletter Thursday. I took the opportunity to publish a piece I've been thinking about all summer, one which will surely not come back to bite me in the ass. Go Birds. www.teamziller.com/sixers-champ...

The Philadelphia 76ers have a clear and obvious title case

An MVP level player. Multiple other players capable of All-Star caliber player. Decent depth. A championship coach. A front office that will do whatever it takes. Here is the case for the Philadelphia...
