Ever since the Trea Turner about face it seems like Philly sports fans get so sensitive about their reputation. You boo and it’s impossible for any sports icon to sustain good favor with you. Embrace it. It’s who you are, even though every sports city is a lot more like you than not.

I wrote a piece on my favorite American crime writer—and some of my favorite crime films—for the new issue of THIS IS @cine-matographe.bsky.social. There are a few copies left on the @vinsyn.bsky.social website, which will be live on Black Friday.

I submit that using Steve Martin as a methodology for age is a cheat. He turned 50 at age 25 and stayed there for 50 years
Steve Martin and John Candy were 41 and 36, respectively, when they filmed PLANES, TRAINS AND AUTOMOBILES

Even as an early buyer of ‘Tony Romo gets muted’ stock, I have to say the perception shift among fans and media about him and his actually genuine decline in the booth (there were reports he had a closed meeting at CBS regarding his prep) is pretty surprising.
