[Philadelphia Phillies @Phillies]

Things that have been invented since Grover Cleveland Alexander set the Phillies record for consecutive scoreless innings in 1911:

The zipper
Sliced bread
Numbers on baseball jerseys
Chocolate chip cookies
Traffic lights
The Titanic
Automated Ball Strike System

Well, at least it’s not the Mets making the playoff run

[Sean Devlin @BySeanDevlin]

@JoshEakle A sacrifice???? Fuck off.

Hey fancy new app @NJTRANSIT ! Wish your fucking bus service would work because the goddamn 119 bus wasn’t even full and just blew past me and a bunch of other people on Central Ave in JC, figure it the fuck out

@ah_pod Might they actually be having fun again??

@RaiderCam81 @AdamSchefter It’s getting priced out of existence sadly

@largebill68 @AndrewBrandt And I’m pretty liberal and I also hate it. It transcends politics, it’s just gross. If the billionaires want new stadiums they can foot the bill. No reason taxpayers should have to do so.

[Rich Hofmann @rich_hofmann]

As it turned out, most people all year were right about the Sixers: Dangerous R1 opponent that had no shot at a deep run due to poor depth and questionable health.

They deserve credit for the Boston comeback.

But man, this really was an embarrassing weekend for this franchise

Mother’s Day 2019: Raptors win Game 7, 92-90

Father’s Day 2021: Hawks win Game 7, 103-96

Mother’s Day 2023: Celtics win Game 7, 112-88

Mother’s Day 2026: Knicks win Game 4 at MSG South, 144-114

Might be time to stop sacrificing time with our parents for this basketball team.

[Brandon Lee Gowton @BrandonGowton]

Sell the Sixers to someone who actually cares about the team, Josh Harris.

@searcy92 @Twin_Szn Should have spotted it when you butchered the word consent. That’s on me.

[Sean Devlin @BySeanDevlin]

@searcy92 @Twin_Szn It’s a public place. Learn your media law. Totally legal.

Maybe this is controversial of me but if you see the scenes so clearly in your head but can’t get them into cohesive words that sound good, maybe you’re just not a writer lol

[one dozen rats at a keyboard @PanasonicDX4500]

The Knicks are doing this for Rudy Giuliani.

@almannarino I mean he might have been working on something but it sure doesn’t look like it!

[Sean Devlin @BySeanDevlin]

@almannarino As a Sixers fan, my dude is so fucking bad at foul shots lol. Put me from CYO basketball out there and I might do better from the stripe (and I sucked!)

@petersterne I went to college in suburban Philly (Villanova, Go Cats) and my campus job was working the front desk at the library. You either needed a student ID, to sign in (if you forgot it) or to show a drive’s license if you were a member of the public.
