Episode 44: Requiem for a Team

Episode 46: Why Can’t We Talk About (Embiid) Divorce?

There are two distinct sides to the relationship between Joel Embiid and the Sixers. On one side, there are the ones who will stick this through forever through sickness and in health, 'til death do we part. On the other side, the relationship is fractured beyond repair because Embiid has not been pulling his weight in this marriage. Both sides are proclaimed idiots by the other side, one holding on too much, the other not enough.  As much as I want to try to make this work, why is it impossible to even mention divorce? Isn't it possible that both player and team still love each other, but that it might be better for both sides to consider a change? Don't put me in the anti-Embiid camp, I know we are better with him than without him, I just don't want to simply go through the motions for the next 3 years of hopelessness.

Episode 45: Philly vs Miami

I'm on a vacation with my wife, so instead of shirking either my husbandly or Podcastelry duties, I have combined them into a feature on the Philadelphia vs Miami sports environment. She just so happens to be a Miamian born and raised. While they have college football, we have the Eagles. About the only thing they have the advantage in is professional basketball. While she has Wade County, we have #selltheteam. The news... * Sixers have fired Daryl Morey * Flyers are a player away * Phillies are RED hot but still need help * Jalen Hurts passes the Nick Johnson test

Episode 44: Requiem for a Team

No, the Flyers and Sixers aren't dead yet. I'm even still decently bullish on the Sixers chances. Why are we eulogizing these teams now? Because anything else past right now is gravy. Both teams were toss ups to make the playoffs, had up and down seasons, and vanquished hated rivals in the first rounds of the playoffs. Think of it like the 2022 Phillies where just making the dance was good enough. With these two, they at least gave us a little more. Let's talk about how we got here. News * Eagles * Schedule Release May 14 * Zack Baun does the Eagles a solid * Phillies * Jhoan Duran is back * Alec Bohm is FINALLY getting a break * Early Trade Deadline Preview * Flyers * The Maple Leafs won the lottery, which means we won too

Episode 43: May the Sports Be With You

It's May 1 and we are shockingly feeling good about all four of our teams right now.  Why shockingly? Because we were not feeling that way in April. As of a week ago we were worried about holes with the Eagles roster, the Flyers were in jeopardy of blowing a 3-0 lead to our archrivals, the Sixers were about to get blitzed in a gentleman's sweep to one of our other archrivals, and the Phillies were deceased. Since it's much more fun to talk about things when they are going well rather than falling apart, I did the podcast on Friday instead of Monday this week. Other than the Jonathan Greenard trade for the Eagles and the Phillies giving Rob Thomson the axe, there isn't a whole lot of news this week, so we are just going to talk about each team one at a time starting with the Flyers, moving to the Sixers, then the Phillies, and finishing up with the Birds. No This Week in Philly Sports History either since the slate is clear for the next 2 weeks on that front. If anyone has an anniversary I'm missing in early May, let me know.

Episode 42: What "Content" Looks Like for Philly GMs

This week on the Philly Front Office Podcast I cover the NFL Draft then bitch about why Dave Dombrowski can't be more like Howie Roseman. Of course, the Sixers and Flyers exist too. How do their front offices rate? I go into all of it. NEWS * Phillies * Taijuan Gone! * Zack Back! * Flyers * Up 3-1 * Missed Draft opportunity not to troll Pittsburgh by sending Brian Westbrook * Sixers * Joel Embiid back from appendectomy * No other Sixers show up * Eagles * DRAFT [https://phillyfrontoffice.com/2026-nfl-draft/] * Jonathan Greenard * Athleticism from Africa
