    good god, Penn has spawned some despicable people….and my dad, who wasn’t so despicable.
    You think Fetterman is despicable? I'm confused...

    Your pops is from here? Where about?
    Fetterman went to Harvard didn't he? I didn't watch the ads yet.

    I got it - the New Jersey TV doctor went to Penn. (along with TFG)

    Not really. My dad has a-fib and a pacemaker - he's very active. It just needs maintenance now and then. Media has to make a big stink out of it. Inquirer said "both claim to be outsiders" barely touching on the fact that exactly one of the candidates is the literal definition of a carpetbagger. In fact, a lot of people will relate to his "regular person" heart issue.

    Note: discussion of PA Senate Race = pertinent "PHILLY" discussion.

    And I'd usually be cynical of any communication from the campaign when explaining his health, BUT it was a statement from his doctor so considering HIPAA would be on the line I think that was pretty honest and good statement. It basically said, "He was stupid and didn't do what he was supposed to do when I told him what he had to do. Now he's learned the hard way and he'll be fine."

    Need clarification from Robbbbb - did your dad go to Penn or is from PA? If he's from PA we say "they're from PA". Penn is an ivy league school in the city of Philadelphia.

    An absolutely unlikeable team, but keep winning and I can of course love this team.

    Wow seven straight since they canned Joe. 

    And I hate to admit this, but I only just learned a few days ago about the new playoff format with a third wildcard. Hopefully the Phils can contend for it.

    :lol:  still like 9 games back of first. And Atlanta has won like 7 or 8 games in a row as well. I think we can sneak into the wild card slot. Hitting and pitching have been really solid during the win streak.

    Yeah I don't think there's much hope to actually win the NL East. I think it's 3rd Wildcard or bust.

    All in on the Adam Sandler movie. Good stuff.

    For the record, my house didn’t make it. Legit Philly though, though annoying the four seasons was portrayed as New York. Couple days ago

    Yeah Hustle was way better than I was expecting. Loved the Sixers centric stuff (though the jacket he was wearing in the beginning was the old logo, before they moved the line on the ball like 10 years ago--I'm weird with shit like that).

    Found this list yesterday because I was super confused at the gym that was supposed to be in south Philly but was coatesville high school.

    The Italian market stuff rules. Italian market spice company, espositos and they were in fante’s.

    Mailman comes into the office, proceeds to start whining about Juneteenth - "Columbus Day is better Columbus is a great Italian hero yada yada"

    I look up the USPS 2022 calendar and he gets off Columbus Day too. He's salty about an extra day off in June. Dude go to the shore, get a life and quit complaining about everything.

    Must be soul crushing to have beliefs that actively hurt your way of life. I guarantee this person probably hates the USPS, too, and doesn't realize this is his employer. Does he also not realize he's bitching about the wrong holiday? Let him know, "no, man, you should be bitching about Indigenous Peoples Day."

    It still says "Columbus Day" on the USPS holidays website. And he's still whining. Like, we can check this stuff, you know. Ridiculous.

    Al Schmidt is the guy we need to maintain some semblance of balance in city government.

    Where is this?  Would be shocked at something like that, but would be sweet.

    Gonna be some hard tickets to come by, but I'll be there.

    Wouldn't they play at the Linc? When it first opened I'm pretty sure one of the first sporting events was a soccer game
