Went ahead & made my own Joel Embiid all-time injury chart, this is wild. When you see it like this, it gives you perspective what this man has put his body through for us as fans. Dude is a warrior. @DrewHanlen@JoelEmbiid
Sixers trade away young talent.
Eagles coaches quitting.
Phillies sign no one.
Flyers always stink.
Welcome back to my childhood new Philly sports fans. Don’t runaway now.
Things Embiid has had to deal with over his career
-Simmons lack of work ethic, refusing to shoot the ball, and quitting on the team
-Markelle Fultz’s mysterious shoulder injury
-Not re-signing Jimmy Butler
-Never having a strong back up center/non Embiid playoff minutes
-Keeping Brett Brown too long
-Giving Tobias Harris a max
-Giving Horford a bag
-Hiring Doc Rivers
-Fumbling the Rockets/Sixers Harden trade in 2020 (Could have had pre injured hamstring harden)
-Being a 1 seed and trading for 35 year old George Hill at the deadline
-Not paying James Harden
-Punting a season of Embiid’s prime
-KJ Martin balloon deal FAILURE
-Not trading Yabu, despite having hella value and the Sixers were simultaneously tanking the season . All to not even bring him back.
-Paying Paul George a max contact
-Ducking the tax during multiple trade deadlines (even after he asked them to spend money)
Philadelphia,
I’ve decided my time coaching with the Eagles has come to an end.
When I arrived here in 2013, I did not know what I was signing up for. I quickly learned what this city demands. But more importantly, what it gives back.
The past 13 years have been the great privilege of my coaching career. I didn’t just work here, I became one of you.
Stout out
For the first time in years, the #Eagles will have a new OL coach. Jeff Stoutland, one of the NFL’s most respected O-line gurus, won’t be coaching but will stay around the organization.
OC Sean Mannion will bring in his own people.
Joel Embiid teammates
Almost died from a Peanut allergy
Forgot how to shoot
Mental breakdown in a playoff game
Called the GM a liar in China
Tobias Harris
PED suspension
Mike McCarthy worked as a graduate assistant at Pitt in late 1980s when he worked the overnight shift collecting tolls on the Pennsylvania Turnpike. His father, Joe, was a Pittsburgh firefighter, and owned a bar that Mike cleaned on Sundays before church.
Tomlin gifts you the opportunity to get a young coach with fresh ideas in the building, and Art Rooney settles for another old-school floor raiser…
I guess the Steelers organization will never change their ways. McCarthy isn’t a bad coach, but this is a frustrating fit
