Obligatory Eagles Chant in the Middle of Roman Reigns Choosing his Wrestlemania Opponent
After he mentioned returning to Philly to make a decision on his opponent, a very audible E-A-G-L-E-S EAGLES! echoed throughout the arena..

I know it’s a hard job so I give a long grace period for stuff like this. Understand the cold temps don’t help. Don’t understand why nothing more has been done since early Monday

My dad still can’t get to the senior center because no path to the street was made and there is still ice along the minimal path that was made. A week later. How is their job considered finished?

They shoveled the sidewalks - cool. Is that why they didn’t plow empty spots? Because snow would’ve wound up on the sidewalks and they’d have to shovel again? That’s ridiculous if that’s the case

Why wouldn’t an apartment complex that contracts a snow plowing company not have that company plow empty parking spots? A week later and there are still spots unparkable because they didn’t plow them when no cars were there

What sense does that make?

They need to be paying US to go and watch

Tearing it all down and admitting to a true rebuild is the best move the Flyers could make at this point.

There's absolutely zero to look forward to for the Flyers.

Even 2023! Carried the team for more than half the season

I've no doubt Gunn's being fed this info. Hard to take it at face value if we just use our eyes.

Kinda hard to watch the 2025 Eagles and think they were playing anything that came close to "Jalen's game"

Please
Sean Mannion may be great. But my mind goes to Derrick Gunn's quotes from last fall about how Jalen Hurts plays "his game", not the game his coaches want him to play.

And I'm skeptical a 33-year-old career backup QB has the juice to get Hurts to change.

Unfortunately they did not capture Dan's tribute on the broadcast but the in arena feed did get the audio

Before the Flyers game, NBCSP aired this tribute to @dhm.bsky.social

We REALLY need a “stuff Dan texted his friends about” compilation
I've still got texts from when Dan was feeling out writing a bit about people with giant fucking heads. I brought two hats with me when we sat down to talk at Misconduct. It never turned into anything, but I've got the hilarious memory of him trying to wear one of my hats.

That's pretty cool.

Having him laugh at some of my jokes would make my day

Scrolling through Twitter, finding the ancient texts, discovered a quintessential Dan tweet.

The Flyers scored as many goals as the Broncos did points. Bad weekend in Colorado

Weird comment by Conor McGahey

Don't remember ever hearing a sports commentator talking about opposing fans leaving their city on purpose for a lot of reasons.
"LET'S GO FLYERS!"

"You hear that? That's a bunch of people who have chosen to leave a city on purpose for a lot of reasons. But they continue their fandom. This is Denver, CO. This isn't Philadelphia, PA. You left for a reason! Leave your allegiance there, too!"

TIPPETT HATTY

"At least all the Flyers fans who didn't want to live in Philadelphia anymore, who now live in the Mile High City, noone thought this through to throw your hat on the ice. It's 8 degrees outside. It's gonna be a cold ride home for you. Doesn't break my heart."
