Aaron Nola in 2019: “Where I come from, people don’t really honk their horns much.
In Baton Rouge we sit around a fire and talk life. Hot or cold. It doesn’t matter. It’s a sportsman’s paradise in Louisiana.
So the first time I was able to really experience the city of Philadelphia, in 2014 after my season in Double A ended, it was kind of funny and stressful at the same time.
Cars parked in the middle of the street. Horns honking every 10 seconds. People crossing at every light and corner. Street vendors and people traffic everywhere. And….
Me.
A kid from Louisiana, fresh out of college. Far from home. Wearing some faded, broken-in jeans and an old hoodie. Standing in the middle of all that, laughing at myself and this place of chaos. I had never spent time in a large city before. I remember saying to myself: ‘This has got to be the biggest city in the world.’
Then at one point I started walking around trying to find something to eat, obviously having no idea where I am. It was raining and about 35°. Not knowing any better, I was walking close to the curb when a bus passed and hit a pothole.
I got soaked.
That was a great start to the day.
Welcome to Philly, bud!....
I came to Philadelphia as a kid from Baton Rouge who’d never experienced life in a big city. And for a minute, when I was standing on that sidewalk, wet from getting splashed by a bus, it looked like a lot for me. But I can now say that I’m a better person because of Philadelphia, my teammates, and the people I have surrounded myself with.
With the grace of God, it turned out I landed in the right place.” https://t.co/EJi045ZLk9

In 2004, I got into Drexel as the first person in my family to attend college. I had no idea it was the most expensive school in the country. Student loan companies let an 18-year-old sign his way into ~$180,000 of debt.
I graduated in 2008, into that economy, and spent the next 18 years paying back every penny—plus all the interest—with zero financial help from anyone.
Today, I made my final payment.
And now that I’ve paid mine off, I can confidently say: cancel student loan debt.
This system set me back financially for nearly two decades. I don’t need someone else to struggle for 18 years just because I did.
Give a generation the freedom to buy homes, start families, build wealth, and live the lives they were promised before we let them sign themselves into a hole at 18.
San Frans Opera demanded a 5-year wage freeze for its musicians while the General Director's salary jumped from $424k to $729k.
30 minutes before opening night, the orchestra packed up and walked out to join the picket line for the first strike in the opera’s 100 year history.
Tempe has turned off its Flock automated license plate reader system and will end its contract with the company. The cameras are no longer collecting license plate data, and Tempe will not seek another company to replace the system.
While the cameras have helped Tempe Police solve crimes, recent misuse of automated license plate reader systems in Arizona and nationwide has raised concerns about the risks that come with the technology.
Tempe Police has found no misuse of its own Flock system.
Flock will remove its cameras, and previously collected data will be automatically deleted after 30 days unless it is connected to an ongoing case or investigation.
Read through the slides to learn more about the decision and what it means for Tempe.
BREAKING: Maj. Jason Watson has just been charged under the Uniform Code of Military Justice for three violations of Article 88 for “contemptuous” remarks about Trump.
Yes, you heard that right. He was just charged for calling for Trump’s impeachment.
A president who has service members arrested for speaking out against the president, isn’t a president. They are a dictator.
There was only one night game a year, the whole sky would brighten up with fireworks, giving us just enough light for a game
We played our best then because, I guess, we all felt like the big leaguers under the lights of some great stadium ❤️
Can't stress this enough, if you have chance, I highly, highly suggest you spend some time at the MLB All-Star Village at the Philadelphia Convention Center.
The league absolutely knocked that out of the park. Great history, art, speakers, autographs, giveaways.
Great for kids and baseball nerds, alike.
Carter Hart is making Stanley Cup Final history.
Under the brightest lights, he is breaking multiple records.
He has set a record after allowing 4 or more goals for a 4th straight game to start a Stanley Cup Final.
In game 3, he let in 3 goals in 39 seconds to set the record for the fastest 3 goals against in playoff history.
In doing so, he set another record; he became the 1st NHL goalie in the history of the Final to allow 3 consecutive goals on 3 consecutive shots in back-to-back games.
If his legacy isn’t tainted by his Hockey Canada trial, it will be tainted by his poor performance. We heard legends of his performance anxiety, but he is coming up as small as ever.
BREAKING: A viral joke on social media to turn Trump’s White House UFC fight on America’s 250th birthday into the “gayest party in US history” is becoming real as hundreds of gay men are actually buying tickets and planning to show up shirtless, glittered up, and very flamboyant.
