Still can’t decide if they are just plain bad, or weirdly and completely uninterested in playing real basketball.

Honestly, just impose legit term limits. So many problems solved with just that. Nobody should be a lifelong politician.

There should be an age limit for elected officials. Full stop.

Just retire and enjoy all the 6-figure speaking gigs paid for by the corporations you gave preferential treatment to over your constituents.

First offensive possession looked like they just picked a random guy off the street an hour before the game to play QB.

He’s still on the team, isn’t he?

Phils’ offseason plan:
1. Even more starting pitching
2. Text hitters β€œdon’t swing at every pitch” each morning at 8:00

But now? I’ll turn on a random nationally televised game if it’s Wemby or Ja or SGA and some others playing against each other. It’s just fun to watch and not me emotionally entangled like watching the Sixers is for me.

I have been a Sixers fan over a general NBA basketball fan my entire life (I’m in my 40s). But the talent being where it is now has made me more of a fan of just good basketball. Like, I have never cared to watch any non-Sixers, or non-elimination playoff games in the past.

All-time Mike rant. You needed it. We all needed it.

Careful with the bingo card references. @michaellevin.bsky.social may never talk to you again…

Eagles waiting until 12 seconds into the 2nd quarter to score a TD is a true commitment to the bit.

Give me something to cheer for, please.

That plus another useless QB draw by the Eagles instead of just giving it to Saquon…

Having both of these games going simultaneously might actually kill me.

Sixers and Eagles both doing their best early on to kill me.

One game does not prove anything, unfortunately! This team has broken me. Need to see them string some wins together!

Because the Sixers have proven they can beat bad teams this year so far……..

If disaster truly strikes & Embiid is just cooked physically… what do the Sixers do? What are the actual realistic options? Same goes with PG. PG played okay the other night, but man, he looks fragile. Tanking this season aside, what does Daryl do if the whole thing comes crashing down?

Stopped shopping at Trader Joe’s because it’s literally just a store for salty and sweet snacks that you eat an entire bag/box of in one sitting.

Secretary of Slop has a better ring to it.

Just give me a good healthy Maxey/McCain run this season and I’ll be happy. Sit Embiid until January.

What can we do right now except laugh? Like, I’m past being mad already. This is just hilarious in a uniquely depressing way.

Never has so much been asked of a basketball team.

Only the true sickos are watching tonight's game. No Embiid (potentially), no PG, and a probably-still-hobbled Maxey losing to the Ben Simmons Nets isn't something I'm going to subject myself to.

But like they say about bad car accidents, sometimes we just can't look away...
