The Phillies wearing their powder blues tonight is like when I used to get really dressed up for work when I was really hungover

The Great Bill Belichick Experiment Is Already Deep In The Dumpster | Defector It’s not the sort of career-capping achievement anyone had in mind, but Bill Belichick really has done something amazing at North Carolina. He has somehow managed to make his job, which was supposed t...

I have ARFID and would probably vomit all over if I covered this. Might be a good reason to go cover it. What a story that’d be!

I’m hanging this upside down if the Phillies lose tonight

as a child I was led to believe I'd hear a lot more about Rice-a-Roni after moving to the San Francisco area

I’m working on a short narrative game where you’re an aquarium salesman when Zach walks in the door, and you have to see how much you can get him to spend.

Illustration (nicely drawn! good perspective! accurate!) of what it would look like if a groundhog ordered at Jim’s With this text What? Don't tell me you've never had a cheesesteak. You've been missing out! It's one thing Philly is famous for, especially here on South Street. Order one with onions and "whiz" - whiz is the cheese in the cheesesteak. Yum!

I like that they let a groundhog order at Jim’s for this Little Golden Book

I hate it when people lump me in with my inner circle of close confidants

Philadelphia should reopen the Norman Rockwell Museum

A Center City pub has cut itself in two, creating a new steakhouse Rockwell & Rose is being positioned as a neighborhood restaurant — comfortable enough for a casual dinner, but refined enough for celebrations.

“You may remember part of the space as the old Norman Rockwell Museum, which opened in 1976 and closed in 1989.” www.inquirer.com/food/restaur...

Divided locker room, disastrous results: Players, parents blame Belichick culture for UNC problems Multiple sources with knowledge of the inner workings of Bill Belichick's program say that UNC football's losses are a product of a divided locker room, a disorganized coaching staff and a failure to ...

“Belichick will say ‘hi’ when he sees players in the building. His GM, Michael Lombardi, has been described by multiple sources as ‘rude’ and ‘nasty.‘ ‘Nobody likes him,‘ a source said.” www.wral.com/sports/belic...

Honestly, baseball is a child’s sport, when you think about. A little game, a little game for the children. It would be embarrassing to be good at it as an adult, to win at baseball.

If Bryson Stott goes to the plate in the ninth without a bat, the Phillies win

A Simpsons meme of Willie going "my retirement grease! No! ya thievin' grease bandits!" But Mark Sanchez's head is pasted over Willie's head. Homer is helping Bart escape with the retirement grease through the HVAC system.

“The fight began over Mark Sanchez being upset that the 69-year-old man parked his work box truck at a loading dock to collect used cooking oil, the court documents state.” www.indystar.com/story/news/c...

My muted words list is probably too expansive (for instance, I muted “left” and “right”) but it really works. Ryan’s post is the first I’ve heard of recent forum drama. This is a shame, because Ryan’s a good poster and I’ve worked with his wife but now I need to block him into oblivion.

These Philly students built their own school library. The community has their back. The students behind DreamEscape Library at Kensington Health Sciences Academy created a social media account, built buzz and earned grants to support their work.

Big Dom is going to give a speech about how disappointed he is, and the team will respond

"You know, they needed this one now, you know?" I keep saying, nodding, staring off into the distance in an empty room.

I’m one of those “this could be a good loss actually” guys now

The referees are making it hard for me to focus on how much I’m hating the eagles

This Philadelphia man collected over 100 bootleg sports T-shirts. Now he’s showing them off as art. Dan McQuade sees his bootleg T-shirt collection as a journalism project — and a reflection of Philly sports fans.

Randall could have carried the ring a third of the way, then thrown it another third when it started to corrupt him, then punted it the rest of the way into the volcano.

I hope we all agree that the most dangerous people in the country are the people who are mean to me on the internet
