PFO Podcast

Just about once per week like clockwork, I get the urge to hear myself talk. Since I’m such a nice guy, I record my sweet, honey coated voice and let everyone else hear me ramble on about our sports teams. Each week, we start with the news, move on to a featured story, and have a spectacular finish of an event from that week’s Chronicle. Occasionally there are guests too, let me know if you ever want to come on and talk about something.

Episode 63: The Eagles Have Serious Issues – Philly Front Office

It has been a very long week for the Eagles thanks to the Jalen Hurts blood clot news. I am not optimistic in the least about his ability to come back from multiple blood clots in his lungs. Beyond that, the Eagles have plenty of other issues too like what to do with their coaches and what to do before the trade deadline in a few weeks. Plus… Flyers – They won! And won. And won again!!! Sixers – Competence! Glorious, glorious competence! Phillies – November might be AWESOME This Day In History: It has been 50 years since Dr. J was refused by the Knicks and the Sixers swooped in.

Episode 62: There Is No Joy in Philadelphiaville…

It’s been a rough October for Philadelphia. No one is winning, Donny Baseball is back, and now Jalen Hurts joins damn near all of his teammates on the injured list. How do we make it through these doldrums, why with the Sixers of course!!! Yikes. Phillies: Don Mattingly is back, Kevin Long is gone, and…

Episode 61: The Phillies and Eagles are Dead

Well, that was a hell of a last hour! The Sixers announced Ariel Hukporti ruptured his Achillies Tendon, the Phillies signed Dave Dombrowski to a lifetime contract, and Lane Johnson just retired. What the hell??? All that, plus me talking about the importance of Curt Flood on the anniversary of his trade to the Phillies…

Episode 60: Hurts, Ertz, Gritty, and My God do the Phillies Need to Win

Congratulations Jalen Hurts. Welcome back Zach Ertz. Happy Birthday to Gritty. Now that all the happiness is out of the way, the Phillies are in their final stretch of the season and desperately need to win two of their final games because they aren’t getting much help from the Diamondbacks, though they do end their…

Episode 59: Remember, It’s Your Fault Pro Sports Accepts Billions in Gambling Revenue

All of the major pro sports and player’s unions sent a letter to gambling regulators throughout the country today to criticize their inability to regulate player safety concerning angry gamblers. It was a laughably tone-deaf response from an industry that has accepted an insane amount of money to plaster gambling lines and advertisements literally everywhere…

Episode 58: Kawhi Leonard Legal Breakdown

There is not a whole lot of news this week for the Phillies, Eagles, Flyers, and Sixers, but that doesn’t mean there is no news at all to talk about. The Kawhi Leonard Clippers fiasco checks all my boxes as a sports business fan: CBA talk, salary cap circumvention, and the legal process!! Oh, baby!…

Episode 57: Eagles 53 and the Salary Cap Talk

The big news of the week is the Eagles 53 man roster. I waited to record until we knew the practice squad situation because with most of the roster battles set between the lower level guys, who would stick around was the real story. As for everyone else, I give an update on the salary…

Episode 56: No Apologies

The Phillies are being lead into their playoff push by Alec Bohm and Aaron Nola. Some people out there said some pretty mean things about these two over the last 4 months…but we aren’t here to talk about the past! The important thing is that they are performing now and we should do absolutely nothing…

Episode 55: Not Giving Up Hope, But It’s Understandable

Why can’t I quit the Phillies? I totally get why people are jumping off the bandwagon. They stink and are infuriating. Plus, giving up and getting mad that people who don’t is a great defense mechanism. Mine is to get mad while they play, get bitter afterwards, then wake up and think of how annoying…
