Eagles Embarrassed on Thursday Night Football

Philly came in thinking this was a bounce back game against the Giants. Instead they got humiliated. Jaxson Dart, rookie first round pick, looked like a seasoned vet. He threw for 195 yards, ran for more, and the Eagles defense couldn’t stop Cam Skattebo, who put up three touchdowns on the ground.

Saquon Barkley was barely in the mix in the second half. The Eagles’ running game vanished. Jalen Hurts threw one touchdown and half the offense looked like a costume. When your passing game is dead, you might as well not even pretend you’re a serious contender.

That “tush push” everyone talks about? Philly leaned on it like it was their savior. They ran it four times near the goal line with linemen blatantly false starting. You can see it, the booth can see it, everybody sees it, but the refs let it slide. That’s not officiating, that’s televised robbery.

If your only reliable play is a push from a few yards out, you’re in trouble. And Philly is in deep trouble.

LeBron’s “Decision 2.0” Was a Marketing Scam

This so-called “Decision 2.0” teaser drops and half the world thinks LeBron’s announcing retirement. One fan even dropped $856 on Lakers tickets thinking it was LeBron’s farewell tour. Spoiler alert: it was a Hennessy ad.

Now that guy is suing LeBron for getting “duped.” That’s like betting on a coin flip and then crying when it lands on tails. You lost your money. Welcome to life.

What really gets me is FanDuel’s part in this. They posted “LeBron is retiring” in big bold letters, then snuck in “not” in microscopic font. That’s some finger-in-the-wind clickbait garbage from a gambling company that takes your money. That’s not a good look if you have any ethics.

LeBron came out looking smooth, rich, and untouchable. You thought you were watching a legend’s last act. You were watching a billion dollar flex.

The All American Halftime Show Is Pure Theater

Turning Point USA announced their own “All American Halftime Show” to run alongside Bad Bunny’s Super Bowl performance. Their branding is “faith, family, football, and freedom.” Their beef is that Bad Bunny speaks Spanish.

This is cultural theater, not entertainment. It’s a signal that if you don’t get the lyrics, apparently you shouldn’t be on the field. Their show is going to lean into English only music, patriotic themes, and conservative vibes.

It’s just dumb. It reads like a parody. But people are going to tune in anyway, and TPUSA gets to say “did you see who’s doing the real halftime show?” Meanwhile Bad Bunny stays quiet and does what he does best.

Yankees and Phillies: Comedy of Errors

Yankees fans are unbearable. They lose again, they’ll spend billions next offseason, hit 700 home runs in spring training, and choke again in October. Their fans crow about Aaron Judge’s home run heroics like it won them the World Series. It didn’t. They lost.

Anthony Volpe is terrible. If he played for Pittsburgh, I’d riot. The guy is automatic death at the plate, and yet he keeps getting at bats.

The Phillies were even funnier. Bases loaded, tie game, ball hit to the pitcher. He fields it clean, the catcher points at first base, and the pitcher sails it into the dugout. That’s one of the worst throws I’ve ever seen. Game over. Season over.

You dominate 162 games and lose it all on one bad throw. Philly sucks. They’re pathetic.

Browns: The Franchise That Never Learns

Cleveland just traded Joe Flacco to Cincinnati while still paying eight quarterbacks. Deshaun Watson, Jameis Winston, Kenny Pickett, Bailey Zappe, Shedeur Sanders, Dorian Thompson Robinson, Dylan Gabriel, and another practice squad guy.

Their starter is Dylan Gabriel and Shedeur is the backup, but nobody knows who’s really running this thing. They’re paying all these guys like it’s a fantasy league gone wrong.

Meanwhile, Baker Mayfield is out there winning games for someone else. The Browns keep throwing money at their own mistakes and calling it strategy.

Get rid of Shedeur. Move on. Stop spending everywhere. It’s not working.
