The Broad Street Line: Recent Episodes
The Broad Street Line
Born out of countless hours spent riding the subway bearing the same name comes "The Broad Street Line" - an irreverent mix of sports talk, music, technology and pop culture. Each week, hosts Kris Domingo and Roy Burton provide their takes on the world of sports and whatever else comes to mind - answering questions and questioning answers. So keep it locked on The Broad Street Line - radio will never be the same again...
The issues with the Philadelphia Eagles' offense are clear, but can they be fixed this season? We debate the answer to that question, and grade each unit on the team as we're now about a third of the way through the season.
The Eagles' offense is stagnant once again, and A.J. Brown has resorted to posting Bible verses on social media. We dive deep into the latest surrounding the Birds and explain why everything isn't peaches and cream despite the undefeated record. Later in the show, we run down the PWI Top 10 for 2025.
This week on The Broad Street Line, we prepare for a battle of the undefeateds and the Philadelphia Eagles take on the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Week 4. The Bucs have had the Birds' number in recent years, but Tampa Bay will be playing with a short deck with Mike Evans out.
If you're a fan of the graps, well... baby, this weekend is for you. We've got All Out Toronto, and we've got the first-ever Wrestlepalooza on tap as well. But, before we get to all of that, we've got an Eagles/Rams game to talk about. Just remember: This is a rematch, and not a revenge game...
Tank Bigsby and Za'Darius Smith join the Philadelphia Eagles just in time for their rematch against the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 2. With only 4 targets for A.J. Brown and DeVonta Smith last week, Kris and Roy try to figure out how to get the Eagles' passing game on track. And, all due respect to the Eagles, but the Bills/Ravens Week 1 matchup may have been the Game of the Year.
Philadelphia's long-lasting nightmare ends as FanDuel pledges to cover the costs of running extra trains for the home opener. As this was recorded before said game, we still had a lot of questions about the Eagles heading into the 2025 season. And, as we do every year, we - or, at least, Kris - predict the stats for the Birds on both sides of the ball for all 17 games.
No surprises on the Eagles' 53-man roster, but an injury to Tanner McKee means that Sam Howell is QB2 for now. In more pressing Philadelphia sports news, with Zack Wheeler out for the season, is the Phillies' rotation strong enough to get them through October? And is this the best week of the college football season?
The Philadelphia Eagles are still the favorites to repeat in the NFC, but there are a fair amount of questions surrounding the Birds to make you question their ability to make it back to the Super Bowl. Kris and Roy discuss that, the WRs and TEs that you need to keep an eye on in the world of fantasy, and finish off with a breakdown of the WWE's latest deal.
Caleb Williams... or Caleb Johnson? Is Saquon Barkley fantasy RB1 after a 2,000-yard season? And why do we love Dak Prescott so much? Kris and Roy explain all of that as they break down the QB and RB positions from a fantasy perspective. But before all of that, we say a few prayers for Landon Dickerson, and discuss YET ANOTHER quarterback ranking, this time courtesy of The Athletic.
Did WWE take it too far with its latest swerve? It's hard to say, but it made for a VERY intriguing Night One of Summer Slam. We discuss that, the BIG return on Night Two and, most importantly, the coming out party for Tanner F. McKee.
Hulk Hogan's passing has led to a lot of uncomfortable conversations over the past few days. However, despite his failings as a person, he is one of the most important figures in the history of professional wrestling. We discuss his impact on the sport and talk a bit about WWE's Unreal... does it show us too much behind the scenes?
After we spend an inordinate amount of time talking about the greatness of Scottie Scheffler and Tiger Woods, we dive into the greatness that is... NFL training camp season. Most of the questions surrounding the Philadelphia Eagles have to do with the defense, and the position battles are already underway down at the Novacare Complex. We also get confirmation that Jalen Hurts is built differently than pretty much every other quarterback alive.
An extraordinary piece courtesy of ESPN.com sheds quite a bit of light on the Joel Embiid situation, including the fact that he finds it hard to let others into his inner circle. And, since it's a day that ends in Y, we discuss yet another injury to Sixers' player. Thankfully, the wrestling this past weekend was GOOD, and Kyle Schwarber saved the All-Star game thanks to his trio of moonshots.
While it's hot outside, it's even hotter out in Utah where V.J. Edgecombe was COOKING in the Summer League... before he got hurt. After we lament why we can't have nice things, we debate the five most important Philadelphia Eagles as we head into a slow period in the world of professional sports. That goodness for the quality graps heading our way courtesy of WWE and AEW.
The WNBA is coming to town... in a couple of years. Brace yourself for the Philadelphia Freedom (which we think they'll be named), but count Philadelphia among the cities that are joining the women's basketball boom. Later in the show, we'll talk about LeBron James doing LeBron James things, and the return of an unlikely video game franchise.
V.J. Edgecombe... welcome to Philadelphia. By the way, we always wanted you more than Ace Bailey, anyway. And with Joel Embiid set to be ready "right around" training camp, and with half of the Eastern Conference out with Achilles injuries, this may even be THE YEAR. Oh, by the way, the Thunder won the NBA title, and look poised to dominate for the next 5 years.
Ace Bailey told the Sixers to kick rocks, and it appears that the team is ready to tell him the same. We're less than a week out from the NBA Draft, and all signs point to Baylor's V.J. Edgecombe as the newest member of the 76ers. We'll break down all of the main prospects who figure to be on the board when the Sixers pick, and we also light up a local radio station that leverages clickbait for engagement.
Are the Sixers moving up or down in the 2025 NBA Draft? Was WWE's release and re-signing of R-Truth aka Ron Killings a work or a shoot? Who the hell knows, but we'll try to answer those questions as best as we can as we head into the slow portion of the sports calendar.
Uncle Vic speaks, and it sounds like the Philadelphia Eagles will have a few position battles on the defensive side once training camp rolls around. After we take a trip to Steakquon's, we celebrate Adam Silver for fixing All-Star Weekend, and we give our picks for WWE's Money In The Bank
Chris Stevens of HBCU Sports joins us to give us some insight on Around the Horn as the show ends its impactful 23-year-run. Later in the show, the crew discusses the narrative around the WNBA and predicts how good DeSean Jackson and Michael Vick can be as head coaches on the collegiate level.
The haters will have to keep hating as the Tush Push lives on: The Green Bay Packers' ill-fated proposal to ban the Philadelphia Eagles' signature play didn't have enough votes to be passed at this week's owners' meetings. And while Jeffrey Lurie enjoys his victory lap, Nick Sirianni was also rewarded this week for his successful run with the Birds. However, we start off the show by debating the greatness of one Scottie F. Scheffler.
The 2025 NFL schedule was released and, no matter how you slice it, the Birds definitely have their work cut out for them this season. Vegas has the over/under for Eagles wins at 11.5 - do you think that's a good bet? And who are the Birds' biggest obstacles in the NFC? We'll debate those two questions and more before diving into the NFL's blatant overreach when it comes to the NBA and Christmas Day.
Dallas Goedert agreed this week to the Sweaty J discount program to return for one last ride with the Philadelphia Eagles. Given that the Eagles' offense is basically the same as last season, can we expect the Birds to make another deep postseason run? Also, we spend a few moments trying to figure out why James Harden is so bad in closeout games.
Saquon Barkley played golf with the President of the United States, and Philly Sports Twitter has never been more divided. Of course, that occurred on the eve of the Philadelphia Eagles' trip to the White House - a visit that many decided to pass on. More importantly... the Birds added 10 players in this past weekend's draft - we'll hand out the way-too-early grade on the various classes.
Did Dwayne Johnson ruin Wrestlemania? Some say yes, but how is that the case when he didn't even show up? We debate the question that is splitting the Internet Wrestling Community, but before we do that, we get you caught up on the latest NFL pre-draft noise.
The Road to Wrestlemania is finished, and while the build has been less than ideal, we're still hoping for an amazing show this weekend in Vegas. Speaking of amazing shows, that's exactly what we got in Augusta, Georgia last Sunday for the Masters. Huge shout out to Rory McIlroy for completing the career Grand Slam and joining one of the most exclusive clubs in sports.
Since everyone loves a mock draft, we review the Eagles' projected selections from the king of the NFL Draft himself, Mel Kiper, Jr. With the Sixers playing out the string, we spend an inordinate amount of time talking about golf and how difficult it is for guys not named Tiger Woods and Rory McIlroy.
The haters are mad, but the Tush Push lives on... for now. The NFL tables any official voting on the Packers' proposal, but it feels like the Philadelphia Eagles' cheat code play will soon be a thing of the past. Later in the show, we discuss the Birds' lukewarm embrace of Dallas Goedert, and wonder if you can officially put a bow on the current era of the Sixers with the news of Joel Embiid's surgery.
Rest in peace to former heavyweight champion George Foreman, who was bigger than life both inside and outside of the ring. Many times, it felt like Foreman winning a boxing match was inevitable, so we ask the same question about the Los Angeles Dodgers as they kick off the 2025 MLB season. We also run through some of the top-30 visits for the Philadelphia Eagles to try to figure out their draft strategy.
On this episode, we show love to all-time Eagles legend Brandon Graham who is finally calling it a career after his second Super Bowl title. We also throw shade at the Green Bay Packers who want to ban the Tush Push, and we finally get the fire that we're waiting for from John Cena and Cody Rhodes.
The Philadelphia Eagles sign a few players... and lose quite a bit more. With the talent drain being real in Philly, will the Eagles have enough for another Super Bowl run? We discuss that, the possible end of Tiger Woods' "regular" PGA career, and we also take an early look at the Wrestlemania 41 card.
The wrestling world is still reeling from what could be the greatest heel turn ever as John Cena aligns with the Final Boss, Dwayne Johnson. But... before we talk about that, we review the latest moves by the Philadelphia Eagles to free up some cap space, and roll through a few mock draft predictions.
Now that we've all survived the parade, what comes next for the Philadelphia Eagles? Well... they've solved the issue with the offensive coordinator, elevating Kevin Patullo to the coveted spot. But will he have the same weapons heading into 2025?
Super Bowl Champions... The Philadelphia Eagles defeated the Kansas City Chiefs 40-22 in Super Bowl LIX, and the outcome was barely in doubt. We debate where this team ranks among Birds' teams all time, and discuss the resumes of both Jalen Hurts and Nick Sirianni. The time for criticism will come later... for now, let's just bask in the glow of a championship.
It's time for the Philadelphia Eagles to take their cues from the Cody Rhodes / Roman Reigns saga and finally Finish Their Story against the Kansas City Chiefs. Super Bowl LIX will contribute a lot to the legacies of both Jalen Hurts and Patrick Mahomes... soon, we'll find out who comes out on top.
The magical run for the 2024 Philadelphia Eagles continues as they roll the Washington Commanders in the NFC Championship Game, earning a trip to New Orleans for Super Bowl LIX. A matchup against their archnemesis Kansas City awaits... is this the year where the Eagles finally finish their story?
We kick off this week's show by discussing the utter mess that is NBA All-Star Saturday Night. And then we move on to more important matters: Figuring out how in the heck the Eagles can win a football game with a subpar passing attack. And before we sign off, we debate the merits of the 2025 Baseball Hall of Fame class.
Despite a rusty QB, suspect playcalling, and a WR reading a book on the sideline during the game, the Eagles handled this Packers this past weekend in the Divisional Round. After we preview the Birds' upcoming matchup against the Rams, we spin around the NFL and evaluate the futures of Justin Herbert, Mike Tomlin, and Jayden Daniels.
Have you ever watched a television show that FEELS expensive? That was what we felt while watching the WWE's debut on Netflix. What does this move to streaming mean for wrestling as a whole? We discuss that later in the show, but first, we break down everything that you need to know ahead of this weekend's Birds/Packers clash.
No Jalen Hurts? No problem! Kenny Pickett led the Eagles to an absolute beatdown of the Dallas Cowboys this past weekend, securing the NFC East crown. With the Packers likely coming into Philadelphia on Wild Card Weekend, will Jalen Hurts be ready to go once the postseason rolls around?
We start the show by giving some love to the one and only Rickey Henderson, THE greatest leadoff hitter that we've ever seen. After we pay our respects, we discuss one of the weirdest games that you'll ever see: The Eagles 36-33 loss to the Commanders this past weekend. Will Jalen Hurts be good to go for the postseason?
The Eagles - and specifically - Jalen Hurts gave us exactly what we wanted to see out of the passing game as the handled the Steelers last week. Can they run it back this Sunday vs. the Commanders? Also, the injury news keeps coming for the Philadelphia 76ers, but hopefully, Joel Embiid is close to a return.
Can we have nice things in the City of Philadelphia? On the news that Joel Embiid is back and ready to go for the Philadelphia 76ers, we get word out of the Eagles locker room - after a win - that there may be some dissention in the ranks. Can A.J. Brown, Jalen Hurts and the Eagles' offense get things sorted out before the postseason? Also, we discuss what the latest vote by City Council means for the future of the Sixers' new arena.
Given that the Philadelphia Eagles took care of business against the Baltimore Ravens this past weekend, is it OK to be irrationally confident about the team's chances at a Super Bowl trophy? We debate that topic as well as the possible dilemma surrounding Saquon Barkley's run towards Eric Dickerson's rushing record. Later in the show, we share our thoughts on one of the more shocking developments in the history of WWE.
Is Eagles/Ravens a Super Bowl preview? We're not exactly sure, but we'll tell you what we'll take out of an Eagles' win (or loss) on Sunday. On this episode, we also explain why we've taken issue with Joel Embiid's recent behavior when it comes to the Sixers, and give you a preview of WWE's Survivor Series PLE.
We should be focused more on the local football team, but the Philadelphia 76ers continue to surround themselves with an unimaginable amount of drama. Early-season team meetings, snitches, injuries... it's basically a soap opera in South Philly. Fortunately, we have something positive to cheer about as the Eagles rip off win after win...
Welcome to the Big Show, Jared McCain! The Sixers' rookie is turning heads with his fearless play and is ALMOST good enough to help you ignore the team's terrible start to the season. But before we talk about him, we'll keep enjoying the ride that the Philadelphia Eagles are taking us on... do they have enough juice to keep the train rolling against the Washington Commanders?
If it wasn't for bad luck, the Sixers would have no luck at all. But at least we have a football team in town that was pretty lucky last weekend! We'll discuss the differing fortunes between the Sixers and the Eagles, and debate when the local basketball team will be able to start turning things around.
For those of you who have had unwavering faith in the Philadelphia Eagles, that faith is finally paying dividends. The same can't be said for fans of the Philadelphia 76ers, who are digging themselves a bit of a hole with Joel Embiid and Paul George on the shelf. Later in the show, Kris and Roy discuss what they think happens next with the Bloodline saga.
The Eagles beat the brakes off of the Giants for their second turnover-free victory in a row. We'll decide how much we can read into the win, but first... in SixersLand, the fanbase is - by and large - absolutely disgusted at the news that Joel Embiid will miss the first week of the season. Is he injured? Is he out of shape? Is this all part of the plan? Kris and Roy will debate that as best they can.
Have the Eagles turned the corner? It's hard to say, but Sunday's win over the Browns is a decent sign that this is a... decent team. No turnovers for Jalen and the crew - hopefully, this holds up with the Giants on deck this weekend. Also, the Sixers were hit with a flurry of injury news this past week... will they have enough time to build up chemistry by the time the playoffs hit?
It wasn't supposed to end like this... not even halfway through October, and the Philadelphia Phillies have already been sent home by the New York Mets. Kris and Roy debate what went wrong and how the team can fix their issues going forward. Later in the show, the two squeeze in some time to talk about the local baseball team, and try to figure out exactly what Dwayne was doing at the end of Bad Blood.
Week 5 byes are usually too early in the season for most teams, but it comes at just the right time this year for the 2-2 Philadelphia Eagles. With a pretty soft schedule coming after the week off, can the Birds rebound and put together a decent run? Kris and Roy debate that question, and decide if this is the year that we should believe that Joel Embiid will learn his lesson and pace himself throughout the regular season.
When you don't drive the car, but often grab the wheel and crash into a telephone pole (i.e. Nick Sirianni), what does that make you? We answer that question, pour out some love for Zach Lowe, and lament the loss of the Athletics to Oakland.
The Eagles gave one away earlier this week against the Falcons... can the right the ship in time for their trip to the Big Easy? We'll answer that question on this week's episode, and we also go over the pros and cons of the Philadelphia 76ers finallly coming to an agreement to building a new arena in Center City.
It was a win, but it wasn't a pretty one... we'll talk about the Eagles victory in Sao Paolo, and what they need to clean up ahead of their Week 2 showdown with the Falcons. We also celebrate the (temporary) return of Monday Night Raw to 2 hours.
This is the big one: The 2024 Philadelphia Eagles predictions that are sure to go wrong are released as the Birds - who are worth a clean SEVEN BILLION DOLLARS - deal with the fallout of some unauthorized political ads.
No real surprises as the Eagles set their 53-man roster for the 2024 season. Kris and Roy take some time to run down the best fantasy football options for the 2024, and raise a glass to Eddie Kingston who says that Madden 25 is trash.
Hopefully, Jahan Dotson is the savior for the Birds at WR3. But if we're worried about WR3 more than anything else, do we really have any worries at all? Also, when the game is on the line for the Sixers, who takes the last shot?
Ladies and gentlemen... we have returned from a brief hiatus debating the injuries all around the league affect some of the NFL's biggest and best stars. Most importantly, we celebrate the fact that The Avengers took care of business in Paris (after a couple of scares), and brought a gold medal home to the US.
Joel Embiid looks lost in his Olympic debut - hopefully, Team USA figures things out before the medal round kicks off. Later in the show, we (hopefully) put a bow on the NBA television deal conversation that appears to leave TNT out in the cold.
"Pour into it every day" is the unofficial Eagles' slogan of the year... will it age as well as "The rent is due every day?" In other news, Joel Embiid makes some... odd comments, and the Sixers help him out with yet ANOTHER point guard.
New Jersey is making a pretty concerted effort to lure the Philadelphia 76ers to Camden, which makes sense for them, but not as much for the team and the fans. Also, two big names on the sports media circuit announce their departures, and we continue to pave the Road to Summerslam
Daryl Morey says that we ain't done yet as the Sixers make even more signings to bolster the roster. In wrestling news, we recap Money in the Bank, and the G.O.A.T. John Cena announces his upcoming retirement tour.
The star hunt is over as Daryl Morey lands the plane and signs Paul George. They also make some moves around the margins as the remaining free agent pool dries up rather quickly. In other news, we come up with an Eagles' all-time Mount Rushmore, and figure out what inning we're in with WWE's Bloodline saga.
Will it be one sweet summer for the Sixers? Only if they land a big name free agent. The Knicks - with their acquisition of Mikal Bridges - already got noticeably better, so the clock is ticking on Daryl Morey and Co. to make a move. Also, Jacob Fatu makes his WWE debut, and the world may never be the same.
RIP to Willie Mays, who quite possibly may be the greatest who has ever done it. Later in the show, we lament the fact that the Sixers may be out on the premium prize in free agency this year, Paul George. And while the Jets are going through offseason workouts, former Eagle Haason Reddick is posting Instagram stories in Japan. Oh, and the Celtics won the NBA championship.
Despite a sluggish first half from the Sixers, the local basketball team rebounded in the second half of their play-in game against the Miami Heat, and will face the New York Knicks in the first round of the 2024 NBA Playoffs. We'll spend a bunch of time previewing their odds at a deep playoff run, and later debate whether Jontay Porter is the worst case of an athlete getting banned/suspended that we've ever seen.
WrestleMania XL was everything that we could have expected and more, and Kris and Roy run down the weekend's events that culminated in one of the most amazing spectaculars in WWE history. We'll also spend a few minutes on the mystery surrounding Shohei Ohtani and his interpreter's gambling problem.
The Showcase of The Immortals is finally here, but before we get into our Wrestlemania predictions and preview, we'll talk a little bit about Joel Embiid's injury, and welcome our good friend Dave Rueter, author of Kayfabe: A Love Story. Wrestlemania XL is cool and all, but we have to show love to Manias - and wrestlers - of year's past, no?
The NFL brodied Christmas Day away from the NBA just like Dwayne Johnson beat down Cody Rhodes in advance of his Wrestlemania match. Mama Rhodes is probably more concerned with the latter than the former, but we - Kris and Roy - will discuss both as well as everything else going on in the sports world, including the latest on the Eagles' season opener and the latest with Haason Reddick.
The Madness of March is upon us, so we're trying to do our best to appear as though we know what we're talking about when it comes to college basketball. We do know a bunch about everything going on in the NFL and the NBA today, so... we'll probably talk more about that stuff... come hang with the crew.
On the heels of the Jason Kelce retirement, we got word this week that Fletcher Cox is stepping away from the game as well. The Eagles did make a few free agent signings this week to bolster their 2024 depth chart, but the Birds will definitely have a few huge holes to fill heading into next season.
Sean Barnard of Fox Sports The Gambler and Pick Swap Media joins the show to talk all things Sixers. Now that the Harden saga is over with, does Sean believe that Tyrese Maxey has the freedom and ability to be a true No. 2 star? And what does Daryl Morey plan to do with all of that cap space next summer? We discuss all of that and more, and even put a bow on a disappointing Phillies season.
Two games into the NLCS, it looked like the Phillies were going to celebrate a World Series berth in the Diamondbacks' pool. Instead, they're headed home after falling to Arizona in 7 games. We'll look ahead to the offseason, and take solace that the Eagles still appear to be headed to great heights this year.
It looks very promising for the Philadelphia Phillies as another World Series appearance is now only a few wins away. But, as the Phillies embrace victory, the Philadelphia Eagles were handed their first loss of the season by Zach Wilson and the New York Jets.
Is Bryce Harper the clutchest player in the history of Philadelphia sports? We aren't entirely sure, but he's once again powering a postseason run for the Fightin' Phils. Also, we debate whether or not the Eagles are for real, and whether James Harden is TRULY a model citizen so far in training camp.
James Harden skips Media Day... but shows up a couple of days later for training camp. Is he going to play ball this season, or is he just protecting his paycheck? It's never a dull moment in Sixers Land, and it's never a dull time when the Eagles square off against the Commanders... this one took a little bit of extra time before the Good Guys came out on top.
The Eagles are rolling, the Phillies are rolling... and the Milwaukee Bucks make a move that shakes up the Eastern Conference. Speaking of shaking things up, Jade Cargill is headed to WWE, setting up the possibility of some amazing matchups over the next few years.
The Birds make it two in a row with their victory over the Minnesota Vikings in their home opener. In other football news, Deion Sanders makes a huge statement in his debut with the Colorado Buffaloes... can he turn around a one-win team in one season? Later in the show, we discuss the fallout from the WWE/Endeavor merger and what wrestling will look like without the heavy hand of Vincent K. McMahon.
After 75 seconds of action, Aaron Rodgers' debut season in New York ended after rupturing his Achilles tendon. Farther up I-95, the Philadelphia Eagles struggles, but ultimately took care of business against the New England Patriots in their season opener. If Game 1 told Birds' fans nothing else, it's that there will be some growing pains on both sides of the ball this season.
Ladies and gentlemen... It is time for Kris Domingo's Annual Eagles Predictions That Are Sure To Go Wrong. As we get ready for the 2023 NFL season, we'll find out which Eagle will be this year's Cornelius Ingram (player with extremely high expectations, only to flame out), and whether or not Jalen Hurts' near-MVP season was a fluke. We also pour out a little liquor for CM Punk and his (inevitable) departure from AEW.
Rest in peace to Windham Rotunda aka Bray Wyatt, one of the most unique talents and creative minds in the history of professional wrestling.
The rift between James Harden and Daryl Morey widens as the Sixers' star point guard was fined by the NBA for his remarks during a promotional tour in China. But basketball season is months away, so we spend most of this season getting excited by the play of Sydney Brown and the rest of the Eagles' rookie class.
Well... we can't remember the last time that a star player in the NBA aired out his CURRENT general manager, but the offseason in Sixers Land never lacks drama. Now that James Harden has burned his bridges with Philadelphia, we speculate as to how this will all end. Later in the show, we offer some thoughts on the Eagles' first preseason game, and start our fantasy football preview with a look at the top quarterbacks in the NFL.
Kenny Gainwell? Rashaad Penny? D'Andre Swift? While we won't know for sure who the Philadelphia Eagles' RB1 will be come Opening Day, we received a few more clues this week. Speaking of clues, we got a few more hints as to the future of the Bloodline story following WWE's Summerslam event this past weekend... where do Roman Reigns and Jey Uso go from here?
Emmy-winning producer - and official Friend of the Show - Mike Mulhern of NBC Sports Philadelphia joins us for our annual training camp breakdown of the Philadelphia Eagles. Mike gives us his thoughts on who the No. 1 RB should be, why the kelly green jerseys are so cool, and explains why Jalen Hurts continues to be underrated by media and executives alike.
It gets curiouser and curiouser in SixersLand: Joel Embiid got married in The Hamptons the other day while James Harden and P.J. Tucker spent the weekend in Houston eating Trill Burgers. While a Harden/Tucker trade is almost inevitable, we debate the possibilty of Harden coming to training camp and lighting everything on fire. Later in the show, we discuss what needs to be done in order to fix the running back inequities in the NFL.
It's never a dull moment in the City of Brotherly Love... this week, Joel Embiid expresses his desire to win a title in Philadelphia... or anywhere else. Meanwhile, his teammate James Harden removes all references to the Sixers from his social media. But after we talk about the negative, we'll discuss the positive outlook for the world of professional wrestling: Is "the business" as strong as it has ever been?
Six months into 2023, we hand out laurels for the first half of the year, and tell you which wrestlers you should by stock in going forward. But before we do all of that, we do a DEEP dive on the James Harden situation with the Sixers. Sorry to break it to you, but it doesn't feel like it's going to be resolved any time soon.
Fresh off of the private jet from the Michael Rubin white party, Kris and Roy wallow in sadness as it looks more obvious that the Sixers are heading towards a gap year. While Philly makes moves around the fringes with Mo Bamba and Patrick Beverly, the Miami Heat appear to be the front runners for Damian Lillard.
Later in the show, we put a bow on the Money In The Bank event in London, and take a look at whether or not Jey Uso will dethrone Roman Reigns at Summerslam.
James Harden opts into the final year of his deal... only to facilitate the Sixers making a trade? It's like Christmas in July! And with word that Tobias Harris may be gone as well, the 76ers could have a lot of money freed up on their salary cap pretty soon. Also... later in the show, we point out that Jalen Hurts is absolutely not insecure, contrary to one man's opinion.
I-95 has been rebuilt, but the Philadelphia 76ers are still trying to piece together their roster for next season. On this edition of the show, we discuss the latest rumors surrounding the team as they figure out their next steps this summer.
On the wrestling front, we are in the full throes of the Bloodline Civil War... the battle lines have been drawn, and the upcoming WWE Money In The Bank PLE should be one for the ages.
As I-95 causes major traffic disruptions in the area, the Philadelphia 76ers will also need to call an audible on their offseason plans and they no longer appear to be players for Bradley Beal and Fred VanVleet. And, after we discuss the local basketball team, we have a true heart-to-heart on Nikola Jokic's status as an all-time great player.
A major bombshell in the world of golf this week as the PGA Tour and LIV Golf announced a merger that will reshape the sport for years to come. LIVGA - as Kris calls it - is now a thing, but what happens to the players who didn't take the big money out of allegiance to the PGA Tour?
Speaking of big money, will James Harden turn down big money in order to head back to Houston? Or is he truly torn on his choice between staying in Philadelphia and testing out the waters elsewhere?
As part of the Spring 2023 Fund Drive at WPPM, The Broad Street Line does a deep dive on the 2001 Philadelphia 76ers. The team is the subject of a new documentary on NBA TV, and despite not winning a championship, that Sixers' team captured the hearts of the City of Philadelphia like few others.
We also get into the present day Sixers as well as Nick Nurse was named the team's head coach earlier this week. Can he finally push the team past the second round of the playoffs?
While the Sixers' head coaching search continues, the biggest news surrounding the team is in relation to James Harden's decision this summer. All signs point to the NBA's assist leader heading back to Houston as the 76ers don't sound inclined to offer him max money.
In other basketball news, we definitely saw the end of Carmelo Anthony's career, but have we seen the last game of LeBron James as well?
We catch up with author/writer/podcaster Chris Stevens to get his thoughts on the latest debacle in South Philly as it relates to the Philadelphia 76ers. After we debate the futures of James Harden, Joel Embiid, et al., we jump over to WWE and fantasy book both Money In The Bank and the upcoming Night of Champions PPV.
Is it Christmas in May? Well, it certainly feels like it around these parts... not only is the Philadelphia Eagles schedule loaded with intriguing matchups, but the 76ers hold a 3-2 lead in their playoff series against the Boston Celtics. Two elite games from James Harden helped the Sixers get to this point, but they still need to close the deal.
In the sports entertainment realm, we need to give props to WWE for putting on a very entertaining Backlash card this past weekend, and we debate whether or not Bad Bunny is the best celebrity wrestler of all time.
Once again, Philadelphia Eagles GM Howie Roseman proves that he's the smartest guy in the room. The Birds pulled off a master class this past weekend, landing a top-3 talent in Jalen Carter, getting a top-15 talent in Nolan Smith, and flipping a future pick for D'Andre Swift.
Meanwhile, in the NBA, the Sixers are tied 1-1 with the Boston Celtics in their Eastern Conference semifinals series. And much to the delight of 76ers' fans, Joel Embiid wins the MVP award for the first time in his storied career.
Recorded before the 2023 NFL Draft, we (poorly) attempt to guess what the Philadelphia Eagles have in store as they try to replicate last year's incredible run to the Super Bowl.
All of the optimism surrounding the local football team is dampened by the fact that Joel Embiid is heading into the second round of the NBA playoffs with a knee injury. But even with Embiid at less than 100%, we may have seen enough cracks in the Celtics' armor to finally slay the dragon that has haunted Sixers' fans for more than a decade.
Jalen Hurts gets the bag as the Philadelphia Eagles reward him with a deal that makes him one of the highest-paid players in NFL history. Now that he's locked up, Birds fans can focus on what the team plans to do in next week's draft as the rumor mill is in overdrive as the countdown to KC continues. Down the street from the Eagles, the 76ers are up 2-0 in their first round series against the Brooklyn Nets, and appear to be set for a showdown against the Boston Celtics.
The Sixers are set to face the Brooklyn Nets (sans Ben Simmons) in the first round of the playoffs, but most of the focus in Philadelphia these days is on the upcoming NFL Draft. Will the Eagles select dynamic RB Bijan Robinson with the No. 10 pick, or will they choose to use it on an impact edge rusher?
The streak of great two-night Wrestlemanias continues as WWE have us another banger this past weekend. However, that excitement is tempered by the fact that Vince McMahon is back as the company is sold to the parent corporation that runs UFC. What will the new Endeavor look like and will the WWE's run of solid booking end? We try to answer those two questions as best we can.
Official Friend of The Show and Podcast Producer extraordinaire Andrew Goldstein joins us on the show as he does every year to help us break down the Wrestlemania 39 card. Not only does he lay out his beefs with WWE's creative team since Triple H took the reins, he also tells you how we all missed out on a potential "Wrestlemania Moment". We also dive into some Temple Basketball talk, discuss some options for the Eagles in the 2023 NFL Draft, and throw out a few restaurant reviews for the foodies in the audience.
Years after Chip Kelly first drove through that housing complex looking for his forever home, Marcus Mariota finally lands with the Philadelphia Eagles. But in all honestly, that was just a footnote on a wild week in Philly sports that saw Trea Turner and Kyle Schwarber show out at the World Baseball Classic while the Eagles themselves were on the short list of choices for... Ezekiel Elliott?
As we continue to shine a light on the most talented media members in the Philadelphia area, Jonathan Brown from the Best In The World Sports podcast joins the show to talk about his two-decade plus career behind the camera. Jon discusses his time working at NBC Sports Philadelphia, gives us his opinion on the Eagles' offseason moves, and explains why WWE's current Bloodline saga is one of the most compelling storylines of all time.
Sean Brace of Fox Sports Radio's The Gambler joins the show to explain what motivated him to build a sports radio station in Philly, and why the competition has been late to the game as we all begin to publicly embrace sports betting. We also discuss why the Philadelphia Union are so compelling, and debate whether the Sixers are for real, or if they're setting us up for disappointment once again.
The Philadelphia Eagles filled both of their open coordinator positions - one internally, and one externally. And with that out of the way, the team can focus on free agency as they decide whether or not to re-up some of their core players. Later in the show, we run through the NFLPA survey and wonder why billion-dollar corporations have rats running around the building.
It's time to be completely honest: The NBA All-Star Game is broken, and it's hard to figure out how to fix it. Kudos to Mac McClung, however... at least the Sixers can't be blamed for the NBA's failings. But before we get to all of that, we debate the merits of attending one's high school reunion.
The Philadelphia Eagles ran out of time in Super Bowl LVII, falling to the Kansas City Chiefs 38-35. During the game, Jalen Hurts cemented his status as one of the best quarterbacks in the NFL, so Howie Roseman's job this offseason is to build the best team around his elite signal-caller. Also, after the fantastic performance by Rihanna, who should the NFL tap for next year's halftime show?
Keiana Williams (RealMamaEagle on Twitter) joins us to talk about her career as a prominent content creator on Twitch as well as to help us preview Super Bowl LVII. Did we think Jalen Hurts was going to be THIS good? Is there any part of us that would be happy for Andy Reid if the Eagles don't win? And who are the dark horse MVP candidates for Sunday's game? We answer all of those questions and more - tune in!
It didn't happen the way anyone would have scripted it, but the Philadelphia Eagles are headed to the Super Bowl for the second time in six seasons. In less than two weeks, they'll be facing the Kansas City Chiefs, who are making their third appearance in the Big Game during the Patrick Mahomes Era. And while it's too early to get deep in the weeds of Super Bowl talk, we'll highlight the key points, including the fact that this is the first SB matchup ever between two black starting QBs.
Later in the show, we'll recap a WILD night in San Antonio and Royal Rumble 2023 will go down in the record books as one of the greatest of all time.
The Philadelphia Eagles are one win away from the Super Bowl, and standing in their way is a red-hot San Francisco 49ers team that hasn't lost a game in more than two months. Speaking of hot, the 76ers are 19-4 in their last 23 games, and later this week, we get the long-awaited matchup between Joel Embiid vs. Ben Simmons. But all of that basketball talk takes a backseat with the Birds just 60 minutes away from a trip to Glendale...
The No. 1 sports radio show in Philly links up with the No. 1 hip-hop podcast as Sivad Davis of Tissue in the Tape joins us on The Broad Street Line to discuss another set of No. 1s: The Eagles and the Chiefs, who finally get down to business in the NFL Playoffs this weekend. We also look forward to the Birds trip to Kansas City this fall, and we get Sivad's list of best hip-hop projects from last year.
It wasn't easy, but the Philadelphia Eagles finally clinched the No. 1 seed in the NFC after their Week 18 victory over the New York Giants. So, for now, the Birds can sit back and relax as we all enjoy Super Wild Card Weekend. We also take a way-too-ealy look at the 2023 schedule, and wonder what happens to WWE now that Vincent Kennedy McMahon is back.
The frightening Damar Hamlin situation earlier this week is just the latest reminder of the dangers surrounding NFL football. On this edition of The Broad Street Line, we debate what - if anything - can be done to make the game safer.
Author, journalist, podcaster and Honorary Uce Chris Stevens joins the show as we look back on the year that was in the world of sports. From a flirtation with Russell Wilson to Ben Simmons finally being dealt to a legacy-defining World Series run by Bryce Harper and the Phillies, the past 12 months in Philadelphia have been anything but boring. Also not boring has been the world of professional wrestling, and before we ring in 2023, we hand out awards for the year's best perfomers in and out of the squared circle.
A shoulder injury to Jalen Hurts may drastically change the NFL MVP race, but shouldn't damage the Eagles' hope for a division title. We also spend some time talking about the future of NFL Sunday Ticket, and bask in the glow of THE GREATEST SOCCER GAME OF ALL TIME.
Kris Domingo finally joins the masses and crowns Jalen F. Hurts the MVP of the National Football League. Fresh off the Eagles' dismantling of the Giants, is it unreasonable to think that the Birds can run the table? Also, for those of you who are interested in the beautiful game, the upcoming France - Argentina World Cup final should be one for the ages.
The U.S. Men's National Team was knocked back to earth after losing to the Netherlands in the Round of 16. But enough of the sport most call football... American football has a big dog in the yard, and their name is the Philadelphia Eagles. We'll debate whether the Birds are the best team in the league and whether Jalen Hurts is the NFL MVP.
The United States did what it needed to do in the group stage portion of the World Cup... can they shock the world and knock off the Netherlands in the Round of 16? Well... before we talk about one time of football, we spend a bunch of time on the other, including the Eagles' 40-33 win over Aaron Rodgers and the Green Bay Packers
It wasn't pretty, but the Eagles did just enough to beat Jeff Saturday's Indianapolis Colts. After we discuss the win, we debate whether or not Jalen Hurts has a decent argument for the NFL MVP award, and we look ahead to the rest of the United States' run in the World Cup
There's a busy offseason ahead for the Phils as they fall to the Houston Astros in 6 games in the 2022 World Series. Speaking of seasons... according to Joel Embiid, the 2022-23 campaign for the Sixers starts NOW.
The Philadelphia Phillies and Union are on the doorstep of bringing hardware back to the City of Brotherly Love. We evaluate both of their chances, and kick around a few thoughts as to how we're in the midst of a World Series with no black players for the first time in more than 50 years. This episode also has pre- and post-game thoughts from the Eagles-Texans Thursday Night Football clash!
Can the Phillies actually do this? We'll find out soon enough after the Phils packed up the San Diego Padres in the NLCS. We also celebrate the arrival of Robert Quinn to help shore up the Eagles' front four.
Author/podcaster/journalist (and official Friend of the Show) Chris Stevens joins the crew to give us an outsider's perspective on what we're seeing from the Philadelphia Eagles. After we discuss the lack of legit contenders in the NFC, we debate the lack of urgency displayed by the Sixers at the start of the 2022-23 campaign. Later in the show, we break down the biggest thing to happen in WWE since the departure of Vincent K. McMahon.
The Blink-182 reunion was the second biggest comeback of the week as Bray Wyatt has rejoined WWE. But before we dig into that, we give kudos to the still undefeated Philadelphia Eagles, and we also take a way-too-early look at the NFL's playoff picture.
It wasn't easy, but the Phillies made the postseason for the first time since 2011. We handicap their odds against St. Louis Cardinals, and we'll also tip our cap to the Eagles, who won a nasty game against the Jacksonville Jaguars. Later in the show, we debate who the REAL HR champion is.
The Philadelphia Eagles defense ate against the Washington Commanders in a 24-8 win. Jalen Hurts outplayed Carson Wentz as tens of thousands of Birds fans took over FedEx Field. We'll talk about the impressive victory, and we'll also speculate on what a new deal could look like for Hurts this offseason.
Are the Eagles... good? They definitely looked impressive against the Vikings as they get ready to face the Commanders and Carson Wentz in Week 3. Also, we debate how much play-by-play broadcasters and color analysts really matter, and we - far too briefly- touch on Ben Simmons' recent appearance on the Old Man and the Three podcast
A win is a win, but the Philadelphia Eagles have plenty of things they can clean up on after beating the Detroit Lions in Week 1. We'll go over that list, recap a wild Week 1 in the NFL and try to project the next few weeks in the "battle" between AEW and WWE.
The amazingly talented Sheil Kapadia of The Ringer joins the crew to tell us what to expect from the Philadelphia Eagles as we kick off the 2022 campaign. We'll also debate whether or not the Sixers have enough dog in them after their off-season acquisitions, and wonder what happened to Brian Kelly's fake Southern accent after LSU's loss to Florida State.
The Eagles strengthen their secondary by adding Saints DB Chauncey Gardner-Johnson... do the Birds have a top 10 defense now? And while they add pieces on one side of the ball, they lose a piece on the other as Jalen Reagor heads to Minnesota. Later in the show, we'll preview one of the biggest weekends on the pro wrestling calendar with All Out and Clash at the Castle both going off ahead of Labor Day.
Admittedly, you can't take much out of preseason games, but we'll still analyze this past week's Eagles/Browns game way more than we should. On this episode, we'll also get you ready for your fantasy football drafts, giving you the inside scoop on the sleepers you should target and the busts you'd do well to avoid.
O.J. Spivey of The Philadelphia Tribune joins the show to give us a behind-the-scenes look at Eagles' training camp, and explains why we should be excited about this year's draft class. We also predict if and when we'll see Ben Simmons suit up in Philadelphia, and break down the pros and cons of the Sixers' proposed downtown arena.
Are the Philadelphia 76ers truly in the running for Kevin Durant's services, or is it just a pipe dream? Speaking of things that may not be real, what are we to make of the Phillies' recent success? We try to answer both of those questions, and we also rip off the Band-Aid and uncover the ugly truth about Pete Rose.
We start the show off by paying our respects to two of the actual GOATs of their respective professions - Vin Scully and Bill Russell. Later in the show, we discuss the latest news in the NFL, and celebrate the return of Wrestlemania to Philadelphia.
A new, privately-funded downtown arena for the Philadelphia 76ers checks just about every box possible, but what will it mean for the businesses and residents in the area? We discuss that, the on-court news around James Harden's new deal, and we take a super early look at the SummerSlam 2022 card.
As we continue to wait on a Harden deal, the 24/7/365 NFL dominates the headlines yet again with news surrounding Deshaun Watson and Baker Mayfield's trade to Carolina. More bombshells continue to fall on the Vince McMahon front... have we finally reached the tipping point?
If you weren't at Michael Rubin's 4th of July White Party, do you even play basketball? Sixers new and old were in attendance, and it looks like the Embiid/Harden bromance is developing by the day. In other news, we pray the Phillies can stay afloat with Bryce Harper on the shelf, and we'll tell you why an AEW/WWE joint show is almost impossible.
True "scary hours" are coming for Nets' fans as everyone wants out of Brooklyn. But while the world waits on Durant's decision, the Sixers' move closer to a Harden deal, and may look to pair him with one of his former running mates, P.J. Tucker.
A possible two-year deal for James Harden sounds like music to Sixers' fans ears... it sounds like we're just waiting for pen to hit paper at this point. In other news, more golfers are heading to the LIV Tour, Deshaun Watson settles nearly two dozen lawsuits related to sexual misconduct, and Vince McMahon steps down as CEO/Chairman of WWE.
The Philadelphia 76ers have engaged in talks on a probable extension with James Harden, and new of the 2026 World Cup coming to the city has fans excited. In other news, a potentially devastating report comes down about WWE's Vince McMahon, and one of the company's biggest stars may be officially out the door.
We catch up with author/podcaster Chris Stevens to get his thoughts on the sports stories of the week, including more allegations against DeShaun Watson. Also, we debate what the Sixers need to do in order to catch the Warriors and Celtics in the NBA hierarchy, and we take the temperature of professional wrestling as both WWE and AEW are mired in drama.
Is it a work? Is it a shoot? No one knows, but MJF's promo on the most recent edition of AEW Dynamite sent shockwaves through the wrestling world. The Broad Street Line crew gives their thoughts on that, but not before they give a blow-by-blow account on the fantasy football beef between Joc Pederson and Tommy Pham
Philadelphia's current favorite son - Joel Embiid - finishes second in MVP voting for the second straight year. Philly's former favorite son - Nick Foles - almost re-joined the Eagles this offseason. On this episode, we talk about both icons, and take a look at The Rock's Google calendar to see what he's up to in the early part of 2023.
Now that the Philadelphia 76ers can officially make plans for Cancun, The Broad Street Line crew debates what Daryl Morey and Co. needs to do in order to crack the elite tier in the Eastern Conference.

Fellow Temple alum and host of The Farzy Show Marc Farzetta joins The Broad Street Line to give us his thoughts on a wild NFL Draft weekend for the Philadelphia Eagles.

Gayle Saunders of 4th and Jawn joins the crew to preview the upcoming NFL Draft and explains what we should expect from Howie Roseman and the Philadelphia Eagles. We also recap the Birds' offseason and debate whether they've put enough around Jalen Hurts.
It's the Sixers and the Raptors squaring off in the postseason once again, except this time, Doc Rivers' squad will be a man short on the road as Matisse Thybulle is ineligible to play in Toronto due to his vaccination status. Later in the show, we run down the list of the Eagles' pre-draft visits, and give props to Tiger Woods for an amazing performance this past weekend.
The Eagles and Saints pull off a massive pre-draft trade which gives the Birds a ton of draft capital in future seasons. We'll grade Howie's latest move, and we'll also recap a wild two-night Wrestlemania 38 which saw the return of The American Nightmare, Cody Rhodes.
TV writer / producer / wrestling expert / Friend of the Show Andrew Goldstein joins us once again to help us preview Wrestlemania 38. Being that Goldstein is a man of many talents, we also take a few minutes to talk Danny Green, the NFL Draft, and the best burger joints in NYC.
Do we want the Philadelphia Eagles to sign every available talented free agent? Sure. But we understand - and explain - why they can't and don't. We also debate who's in a better spot between Jalen Hurts and Tua Tagovailoa, and reassess the NBA playoff scene now that vaccine mandates have been lifted in New York City.
We start today's episode by paying our respects to the legendary Scott Hall AKA Razor Ramon. After we say goodbye to the Bad Guy, we say hello to Haason Reddick, who signed with his hometown Philadelphia Eagles earlier this week. And of course, we give our takes on the 40-day, 40-night retirement of one Tom F. Brady.
Guess who's coming to Philly... but not playing? We'll preview Ben Simmons' return to the City of Brotherly Love, wonder why Calvin Ridley was willing to throw away millions of dollars for a few parlays, and react to the bombshell that was Russell Wilson's move to Denver.
If what we've seen so far from the Sixers' duo of James Harden and Joel Embiid is what we can expect going forward, it's going to be scary hours for the rest of the NBA. We also discuss the end of the brief Carson Wentz Era in Indy, and reveal Tony Khan's latest big announcement.
Ben Simmons is still "ramping up" in preparation for his return as we await the debut of James Harden. But speaking of basketball, we need to figure out a way to fix the less entertaining aspects of All-Star Weekend.
Ben Simmons and James Harden both spoke to the media this week, but one of them didn't say all that much. The Broad Street Line crew also recaps Super Bowl LVI and speculates about a big move in the wrestling world.
Welcome to Philadelphia, James Harden. The long-anticipated trade finally goes down hours before the deadline... what does this mean for the Sixers and the Nets? And will Ben Simmons play when Brooklyn comes to town on March 10th?
Emmy-winning NBC Sports Philadelphia producer Mike Mulhern (Eagles Pre- and Post-Game Live) joins the show to discuss all things Eagles (Jalen Hurts, Nick Sirianni) as we recap a surprising 2021 season. We also spend some time on a hypothetical Sixers trade, and debate the merits of Doc Rivers.
Author/podcaster Chris Stevens joins us on the show as we put a bow on the most amazing NFL Divisional Round that any of us can remember. And as the Road to Wrestlemania begins to be paved, the three of us make our predictions for tonight's Royal Rumble.
The Philadelphia Eagles unceremoniously lost to the Tampa Bay Bucs in the Wild Card round, officially kicking off what figures to be a busy offseason. On the basketball front, Sixers' president Daryl Morey talks of playing the long game when it comes to a potential Ben Simmons' deal.
The Eagles and Bucs are two of the 14 teams who could win the Lombardi Trophy next month. Can the Birds exact revenge from a loss earlier in the season, or does Tom Brady take his next step towards another ring?
The Philadelphia Eagles have officially punched their ticket to the playoffs, and Jalen Hurts has officially made his case to be QB1 next year. But before we get to that, we rank the potential postseason opponents, and pay our respects to the legendary John Madden.
2021 began with both Carson Wentz and Doug Pederson in Philadelphia. It ended... quite differently. We'll wrap up the past 12 months with the Eagles, Sixers, Phillies and Flyers, and even take a look back and some of the biggest national sports stories as well.
Official "Friend of the Program" Dave Rueter joins the show to discuss his newest book, "A Phillies Odyssey: Exploring the Forgotten Players of Fightins Yesteryear." Dave and the crew also dive into the current state of Philly sports, including the cloud of uncertainty surrounding the Philadelphia 76ers.
The Philadelphia Eagles did what they were supposed to do against the New York Jets, even without Jalen Hurts. The Philadelphia 76ers did what they were supposed to do, closing out their road trip with three straight wins. Will Daryl Morey do what he's supposed to do and finally trade Ben Simmons?
The Philadelphia Eagles' loss to the New York Giants could haunt fans - and Jalen Reagor - for months to come. Also, we discuss whether or not Doc Rivers is the problem with the Sixers... in addition to the issues they have with a flawed roster.
Are the Philadelphia Eagles for real? It's hard to say, but two straight wins have fans feeling pretty good these days. Also, the Sixers finally figure things out with Joel Embiid on the shelf... is Tyrese Maxey playing his way into the league's Most Improved Player Award?
According to Rich Paul, the Philadelphia 76ers are making things worse with Ben Simmons. But as the Sixers try to sort things out with their point guard, the Philadelphia Eagles take their first step in righting the ship after a 2-5 start.
It's report card time! We're just past the halfway point of the NFL season, so it's time to hand out some grades to the Philadelphia Eagles. We also spend some time explaining the MCU, and give flowers to the anchor GOAT Jim Gardner, who recently announced his impending retirement.
Are the Philadelphia Eagles good? No, but they smoked a bad Detroit Lions team as they should have. Even so, Kris and Roy aren't all that moved by the performance.
While Ben Simmons is dealing with his mental issues, the Philadelphia 76ers are dealing with lack of playmaker issues. Not having a legit PG on the roster is a problem... but not as big as the problems that Nick Sirianni and the Eagles are currently dealing with.
The Era of Good Vibes is over: Ben Simmons gets kicked out of practice less than a week after his return. Philadelphia 76ers' GM Daryl Morey is committed to seeing this through to the bloody end, and both sides are holding serve. Meanwhile, the whispers have begun surrounding the future of Jalen Hurts.
Ben Simmons attempted to come to work earlier this week like nothing happened... we'll break down the not-so-bizarre behavior of a man unwilling to miss a paycheck. We also review the emails that got Jon Gruden out the paint and debate whether there's more to the story.
Getting caught up at a restaurant named after you is a bad scene, but that's exactly what happened to Urban Meyer, so you know we had to talk about it. We also debate what we should worry about most with the Philadelphia Eagles, and look at the landscape of the WWE after the draft.
After giving up a 40-burger to the Dallas Cowboys, and with the Kansas City Chiefs on the horizon, where is the light at the end of the tunnel for the Philadelphia Eagles? Speaking of the end, after the latest details regarding the Ben Simmons drama were unveiled this week, the Philadelphia 76ers are (hopefully) closing in on the last days of the saga.
Fresh off an ugly Philadelphia Eagles home opener, the Philadelphia 76ers beef with their starting point guard gets even uglier after Doc Rivers goes on TV and tells a bunch of half-truths about the situation. In positive news, Bryan Danielson and Kenny Omega put on a banger in AEW... does the WWE finally have competition?
Nick Sirianni coached as well as you can in a season opener, but was the Philadelphia Eagles win over the Atlanta Falcons fools' gold, or something they can build on? On this edition of The Broad Street Line, Kris and Roy answer that question, and run through the latest Ben Simmons' news.
Author/podcaster Chris Stevens joins us again as we preview the 2021 NFL season, answering the burning questions about Nick Sirianni, Jalen Hurts and the other 31 teams in the league. We also spend a few minutes fantasy booking out to Wrestlemania...
Author, podcaster, and unofficial third member of the show Chris Stevens (@CJWritesNThangs) joins us as we dive into all of the spicy Ben Simmons' takes. With Joel Embiid pushing back at Sixers' fans, we ask ourselves... are we to blame?
Another week, another flurry of stories about Ben Simmons. We'll sort through what's real, and what's fake, and we'll figure out if the positive news surrounding the Philadelphia Eagles will translate into wins this season.
Apparently, Ben Simmons isn't a texting type of guy... but will the Sixers' point guard show up when training camp starts next month? On this episode, we discuss that, the Eagles we hope show out during preseason, and why AEW keeps going to the old guy well.
The Philadelphia 76ers made a bunch for moves this week, but none involving a certain disgruntled point guard from Australia. Also... what does the Carson Wentz news mean for the Eagles? And will the WWE ever stop releasing talented wrestlers?
Is this the end of the Ben Simmons Era in Philadelphia? 76ers fans hope the saga is in its final days, but resolution doesn't appear to be on the horizon. In Philadelphia Eagles' news, we imagine how Carson Wentz would have fared in Lane Johnson's Bro Barn, and celebrate the arrival of Steve Nelson.
The debate continues about the vaccines because... America, but there is no debating who the best team in the NBA was this season. Is Giannis the best basketball player in the world, or is he still in the shadow of KD and LeBron? Also, we examine how likely it is that the Sixers start next year with Damian Lillard in their starting lineup.
It's go time for the Sixers as they're fully engaged in Ben Simmons trade talks. And it's "Sho Time" for Major League Baseball as the new face of the sport - Shohei Ohtani - has his official coming out party during All-Star Weekend. We also spend time ripping the Boston Globe's ranking of NFL road trip destinations.
Danny Green has something to say about Ben Simmons, but Sixers' fans are not in the mood right now... and until they are, we'll discuss how many in the media think the Eagles' roster is trash, and explain what the latest name, image and likeness news means for college athletes.
Emmy-winning anchor Amy Fadool Kane of NBC Sports Philadelphia joins the guys to put a bow on the Philadelphia 76ers' season. The crew discusses whether the process is a success, and agree that major changes need to be made for this team to make the next step.
Ben Simmons' non-desire to shoot in the 4th quarters of games ended the Sixers' 2021 run and may have ended his tenure with the team. We'll pick up the pieces from a disastrous loss to the Atlanta Hawks and try to envision how the 76ers will look going forward.
The Broad Street Line duo is as shocked as everyone after seeing the Sixers go down 3-2 to the Hawks. Is this the end of the run for the 76ers' current core? And as the NFL season approaches, the discussion around Covid-19 will have major impacts on locker rooms across the league.
The Atlanta Hawks made it a series after winning Game 1, but the Philadelphia 76ers responded and appear to be in control going forward. That said, some - including Stephen A. Smith - think that the Sixers' run ends in the conference finals. We'll debate that, and give you our thoughts on the vaccination debate raging throughout NFL locker rooms.
The Sixers outlasted the Washington Wizards and now face an Atlanta Hawks team that's playing with house money. Later in the show, the Broad Street Line crew discuss the latest in the NFL, including the outside chance that Julio Jones lands with the Eagles.
The Philadelphia 76ers are up 2-0 on the Washington Wizards, but people in the City of Brotherly Love have to deal with another episode of Fans Behaving Badly after the Russell Westbrook popcorn incident. After talking about the off-court nonsense, we'll focus on how far the Sixers' current strategy will take them.
The super-talented Jake Fischer joins The Broad Street Line to discuss his new book: "Built To Lose": How the NBA's Tanking Era Changed The League Forever. The former Liberty Ballers writer also gives his thoughts on this year's playoffs and whether or not the Philadelphia 76ers have what it takes to make a deep run.
It's a party and everyone's invited! The 2021 NFL schedule has been released, and fans all across the country are planning trips to see their favorite team on the road. The Philadelphia Eagles' midseason showdown with the Las Vegas Raiders is one of the hottest days on the NFL calendar, but will Aaron Rodgers be under center for the Silver and Black?
Heisman Trophy winner DeVonta Smith is a Philadelphia Eagle, and the fans are happy... for the most part. The selection of Landon Dickerson caused some debate amongst the fan base, and the Eagles' third-round pick caused a rift in the Birds' front office itself...
The 2021 NFL Draft is here... It looks like the Philadelphia Eagles will go WR at No. 12, but it all depends on how the board shakes out. Speaking of uncertainty, Aaron Rodgers may have played his last snap with the Green Bay Packers...
New head coach Nick Sirianni and old GM Howie Roseman gave a pre-draft press conference, and it didn't exactly engender much confidence among Philadelphia Eagles fans. Regardless... the 2021 NFL Draft is fast approaching, and the mock drafts are slowing coming into focus...
Author Chris Stevens joins the show to help us celebrate the life of hip-hop immortal DMX. We also tie a bow on Wrestlemania 37 and give Bianca Belair and Sasha Banks all of their flowers.
The Philadelphia Eagles didn't make a move this week, but another trade in the NFL could have a major impact on the local football team. The Birds did make a couple of free agents moves, including one that's a homecoming of sorts.
The chase for Ja'Marr Chase is over, but at least the Philadelphia Eagles have more picks in the 2021 NFL Draft than any other team. However, with the team less likely to draft an elite talent, can any of us get an accurate assessment on Jalen Hurts?
No Kyle Lowry for the Philadelphia 76ers, but the team DID make a move at the deadline. But is the addition of George Hill enough to move the needle? Also, the Eagles bring in a No. 2 QB with local ties...
Carson Wentz didn't have fun at the end of his Eagles' career... and we didn't have fun watching him. So it was basically a wash. Moving on to basketball... the Philadelphia 76ers' flaws are more apparent with Joel Embiid out... is it time to finally pull the trigger on Kyle Lowry?
The Philadelphia 76ers are the best team in the East at the All-Star break... but are they truly the best team in the conference? Meanwhile, Eagles fans prepare for free agency as their favorite football team literally has negative dollars to spend on the market.
As much as we try, we can't get Carson Wentz out of our system. So there's that. And, as usual, Kris takes a few minutes to attack AEW for completely reneging on their commitment to the future.
Well... it finally happened. The Philadelphia Eagles traded Carson Wentz to the Indianapolis Colts, and our long national nightmare is over. But does this mean the start of the Jalen Hurts Era? Jason Ashworth joins the crew to put a bow on Wentz's time here in Philly and also look ahead to the 2021 season.
Tom Brady solidified his position as the GOAT when it comes to quarterbacks with his latest Super Bowl victory. And we go from one QB to another: When and where will Carson Wentz be dealt?
Former Temple Basketball Head Coach John Chaney was a giant both on and off the court, and we begin this edition of the show by giving him some well-deserved (and maybe overdue) recognition.
It might be time to walk back the Tobias Harris' slander... he's been playing pretty well for the Philadelphia 76ers this season. How good are the 76ers, really? And, more importantly, if the Chiefs beat the Bucs in Super Bowl 55, how good is Patrick Mahomes?
Nick Sirianni gets hired by the Philadelphia Eagles to presumably fix Carson Wentz... but was he a better option than Eric Bieniemy? Also... it's conference championship weekend in the NFL, and even though the Sixers have just begun their campaign, is it safe to assume they'll need an improved Ben Simmons if THEY want to reach the Eastern Conference Finals?
The super-talented Jason Ashworth (@AllAshworth) joins us to provide his thoughts on the unceremonial firing of Doug Pederson. Why isn't Howie Roseman being held accountable? Who will be the head coach in 2021? And is this Philadelphia Eagles' job even that attractive? We try to answer all of those questions and more...
The world is burning all around us, Black Monday has descended upon the NFL... is everyone at the NovaCare complex safe? We try to put a bow on a very disappointing 2020 campaign for the Philadelphia Eagles, and figure out who should return in 2021.
In a long overdue interview, the super-talented Dave Rueter joins The Broad Street Line to discuss his amazing new book "A Sixers Odyssey: Exploring the Forgotten Players of 76ers Yesteryear." The former Liberty Ballers star talks about his start in the blogging world, explains why we don't talk enough about Willie Burton, and settles the unending debate between Bret Hart and Shawn Michaels.
It's the start of the Jalen Hurts Era in Philadelphia, but is this the end of Carson Wentz's run here in the city? We debate whether or not they can both be in the QB room, and we also celebrate the securing of a PS5.
My how the turntables have turned... Carson Wentz is on the bench and Jalen Hurts has the keys to the car. It's a broken-down, beater of a car, but still. Can the rookie QB pull off the upset against the Saints this week?
Sting is wrestling again, Roy Jones and Mike Tyson are fighting, and Snoop is rapping... as they say, everything old is new again. Speaking of new, we wish we had a new football team to watch since the Philadelphia Eagles are awful... is it time to clean house?
The 2020 Philadelphia Eagles season is officially a disaster, but we're contractually obligated to discuss them, so here we are. We'd much rather spend the time talking about the Sixers' newest addition... DWIGHT HOWARD??
Busy night for new 76ers' head of basketball operations Daryl Morey... and while it's too early to assign draft grades, the Sixers did some good work this past week. Which is to say, they're the polar opposite of the 2020 Philadelphia Eagles.
New Philadelphia? Yeah...we have some thoughts about the Philadelphia 76ers and their new City Edition uniforms. We also address Brett Favre's spicy comments about Carson Wentz, and make some Eagles' predictions for the 2nd half of the season.
The homie/author/podcaster Chris Stevens (@CJWritesNThangs on Twitter) joins us on the show to talk about Carson Wentz's struggles, the possibility of James Harden running point in Philly and the amazing Roman Reigns angle in WWE.
The Philadelphia 76ers' offseason gets even better with the addition of Daryl Morey. It's ALMOST enough to make one forget how terrible the NFC East has been this season.
Jamon Brown is trash, but not as trash as the NFC East as a whole. But despite the Philadelphia Eagles' loss to the Baltimore Ravens, they have as good of a chance as any to win the NFC East. But enough of the sad talk: The iPhone 12 is coming out soon!
Do the Philadelphia Eagles belong in first place? Who know, but they're there, and that's that. More importantly, the Philadelphia 76ers found a way to glow up during a pandemic by hiring Doc Rivers as their new head coach.
When is a tie worse than a loss? When the Philadelphia Eagles tie the hapless Cincinnati Bengals. And what's going on with Carson Wentz? This is one of those episodes where we end with more questions than when we start...
8 sacks plus 3 turnovers equals a season-opening loss for the Philadelphia Eagles. Why doesn't Carson Wentz's internal clock let him now to throw it away? Is Doug too smart for his own good when it comes to managing DeSean Jackson's snaps? And where is Matt Pryor? We answer all of those questions and more.
After taking off for the holiday, Kris and Roy are back just in time to welcome back the NFL. And before they sign off for the week, the dynamic duo explains just how dumb it would be to put a new arena on Delaware Avenue.
The NBA takes an unprecedented step in the name of social justice... will other leagues follow? We'll debate that, discuss the Sixers' decision to move on from Brett Brown, and evaluate the Philadelphia Eagles' options to replace Andre Dillard.
The Philadelphia 76ers look like a hot mess after going down 2-0 to the Boston Celtics... is it time to blow it all up? We answer that question, and debate the merits of the NBA allowing more folks into the bubble.
The Philadelphia 76ers will face the Boston Celtics in the first round of the Eastern Conference playoffs... but has the bubble already burst on the Sixers' postseason chances? Conversely, the Philadelphia Eagles haven't even started their season, and they're already shorthanded at a key position.
Another day, another injury for the Philadelphia 76ers. No more Ben Simmons this year, so... who is the point guard? And with Eagles' head coach Doug Pederson diagnosed with coronavirus, will the team be ready to go when the season kicks off on September 13?
The NBA is proof that the bubble works... hopefully, other professional sports leagues can learn from this model. That said, when certain players leave the bubble to get food (see: Williams, Lou), there's not much you can do.
Sports are back! Do we deserve them? Probably not, but we'll enjoy them while they last. We'll also give Snoop and DMX their flowers after an amazing Verzuz battle.
The point guard experiment is over for Ben Simmons... The Australian star is now the Philadelphia 76ers' starting power forward, but is it enough to keep Brett Brown's job? Also, in the most important news of the week, we preview next week's Verzuz matchup between DMX and Snoop Dogg.
There's a lot of fallout from the DeSean Jackson situation... did the Philadelphia Eagles do the right thing? We know for certain that the Washington Football Team did the right thing by getting rid of their racist team name, but it may be a while before their fans - or any team's fans, for that matter - can see them in person.
If we're creative - and socially responsible - we might be able to have fans in the stands at American sporting events later this year. But in the case of most sports, there will be fewer games to watch this season.
NASCAR's most memorable weekend in recent years was also one of its worst... we'll do a deep dive into the Bubba Wallace situation and explore where the sport goes from here. We also have baseball on the horizon, but is a 60-game season legit?
Most counties in Pennsylvania are officially in the "green" phase, and most professional sports are headed there as well. But before any games are played, we're seeing players in the NBA and the NFL using their leverage to ensure that the leagues and owners realize that Black Lives Matter.
Author/freelance writer Chris Stevens joins The Broad Street Line to help us dig through all 10 episodes of The Last Dance documentary. Later in the show, we discuss the NBA's plan to restart the season, and debate ESPN's list of the top 74 players of all time.
Jason Ashworth of NBC Sports Philadelphia's Birds Outsiders joins the show to help us understand the Philadelphia Eagles' draft strategy. Because we still don't get it. And later, we wrap things up with a discussion about ESPN's The Last Dance documentary.
Recorded mere hours before the 2020 NFL Draft, we break down all of the options for the Eagles with the 21st overall pick. We also discuss the latest spate of WWE layoffs and furloughs, and assess the PGA Tour's plan to begin their season.
Will the NBA finish its season in Las Vegas? Will the MLB create a virtual bubble in Phoenix to kick off 2020? We break down the various options major professional sports leagues may pursue in order to get back on the field and court.
There would have been a TON of sports going on this weekend. Sadly, there were none. But somehow, the Eagles and Sixers still found a way to be in the news despite the lack of games.
It's official: No spectators at sporting events. We've come a long way in the last week and a half, but we here at The Broad Street Line think there's more to come with the coronavirus...
It's Combine SZN... but we're more focused on the rumors SURROUNDING the event... The Eagles are poised to be big players in free agency, but will they land the big prize, or be forced to fill their holds in the NFL Draft.
Is Joel Embiid the best in the world? Against the Atlanta Hawks, he sure looks like it. But can he do the same against the Clippers and Lakers? And whomst is the best player in the 2020 NFL Draft?
Joel Embiid is a troll... and Philly fans ate it all up hook, line and sinker. That's all in the past after a huge win against the Clippers. But as the Sixers enter the All-Star break, have they figured it all out?
We have no idea who is even in Royal Rumble, but we'll talk about it anyway. But more importantly, we'll debate the latest entrants into the Baseball Hall of Fame, and (hopefully) figure out what the Eagles' offensive coordinator really does.
If everybody cheats in baseball, does it even matter any more? And with six straight losses on the road, can the Sixers turn it around without Embiid?
Carson Wentz pulls the proverbial rabbit out of his hat for the second week in a row, but can he do it again on Sunday? And there are two HUGE NXT matches on the card tonight, once again proving that the yellow and black brand is the best product in WWE...
The Eagles are 5-4 heading into the bye week, but are they poised to make a run at the NFC East crown? We'll also dig into the WWE's issues over in Saudi Arabia, and commend HHH for bringing NXT to Fox
The NFL is not for suckers, and the Philadelphia Eagles aren't for them either, according to Malcolm Jenkins. Jalen Ramsey, however, isn't for the Eagles after being dealt to the LA Rams. And later in the show, we recap the abomination that was the WWE Draft.
The Wednesday Night Wars are on... it's Premiere Week for both WWE and AEW as we now have NINE hours of live wrestling to watch each week... what can we expect this (and every) Wednesday? We'll explain...
Years from now, people will ask if you were outside when NXT made its debut on the USA Network. We'll talk about WWE's best product heading to cable television, and pick up the remains from the Eagles' loss to the Falcons on Sunday night.
California wants to give college athletes the ability to make money off of their likenesses. Of course, the NCAA doesn't like that. It may not matter: if/when it becomes law, it'll open the floodgates in every other state. And speaking of floodgates, is there any way to stem the tide of foreign teams smoking Team USA in basketball competitions?
The Antonio Brown saga never ends, but that all takes a back seat to the start of the NFL season. And with the in-home game watching experience getting better by the year, the Wells Fargo Center takes an aggressive approach to courting fans.
Since the Philadelphia Eagles didn't take the preseason all that seriously, we know you have a lot of questions about the team heading into the 2019 campaign. Fortunately, we have the answers... or at least we hope we do.
Thanks for everything, Andrew Luck and Rob Gronkowski... and no thanks to all the haters who criticize those who decide to do what they want to do with their lives. We'll also play devil's advocate on the Sean Rodriguez situation, and take a final stab at the Eagles 53-man roster.
The Wednesday Night War is on! Or is it? We'll explore NXT's move to USA, Seth Rollins' move to get married, and the NFL's move to completely make us all disinterested in the preseason....
Is it really a Nick Foles reunion if Nick Foles doesn't play? Are the Sixers the darlings of NBA television rights holders? And is Bray Wyatt 2.0 the best wrestling re-invention in a long time? We'll answer all of those questions and more... come along for the ride
No time for lunch table talk here... we've got a HUGE SummerSlam/Takeover preview, we'll look ahead to tomorrow's Eagles/Titans matchup, and debate who will be in next year's Pro Football Hall of Fame class...
The NFL Top 100 List is trash, Ben Simmons has been busy shooting in the gym, and today is the day that we realize that we've been playing some form of Madden Football for nearly 30 years. We're back on our Wednesday grind... come join us...
For the fifth straight year, The Broad Street Line took the stage at the Philadelphia Podcast Festival to break down the past year in sports as only they can. James "The Blueprint" Williams of War Room Sports joined the duo to talk about his writing career and to help us create a "Table of Gods" for Philly sports. This was a WILD one... you don't want to miss it...
Before the Kawhi Leonard/Paul George bomb dropped, we recorded an episode to get you caught up on all of the moves made during free agency, including the Philadelphia 76ers poaching Al Horford from the Boston Celtics...
Al Horford to Philly? Jimmy Butler to Houston? A lot of wild rumors and innuendo as we head into the NBA offseason... we're here to sort everything out for you as only we can...
WWE's Super Showdown was trash, so we won't talk much about it. We will, however, discuss Carson Wentz's new deal, the future of Kevin Durant and LOTS more... come join us!
Chris Long is gone from the NFL and Brock Lesnar is back in the WWE... can this week get any worse? We'll recap a wild weekend, including an unbelievable finish at Money In The Bank... and we'll debate whether or not the Golden State Warriors are the unstoppable juggernaut they appear to be...
The Sixers lost to the Raptors in heartbreaking fashion earlier this week, but the team is already looking forward to the NBA Draft... And, later in the show, we're cutting the fat in WWE... which wrestlers move on, and which ones might be looking at AEW?
It's now or never for the Sixers, who need to win the next two games in order to advance to the Eastern Conference Finals. And now that WWE as instituted the Wild Card Rule, will that make Raw and Smackdown any better?
The Birds wound up making just 5 draft picks this year, but the class of 2019 should pay dividends well into the future. We'll also discuss the Sixers' chances against the Raptors and take a way-too-early look at Money In The Bank
The Eagles 2019 schedule has been released... and it's the only thing that matters. Well... that, and the Sixers' postseason run AND the WWE Superstar Shake-Up. We'll discuss all of those things and more on this edition of The Broad Street Line... tune in!
Kofimania is running wild in the WWE, the Universal belt is back where it belongs, and The Man fulfilled her destiny... we've got a lot to run back when it comes to Wrestlemania 35, and we'll do that AND preview the Sixers' upcoming playoff slate.
Bryce Harper is hitting bombs and forcing the Washington Nationals (and their fans) to tuck their whole summer in. But while that's happening, the Philadelphia Eagles are getting ready for this month's draft and WE'RE getting ready for this weekend's Wrestlemania 35!
Are the Birds bringing the kelly green uniforms back? Will the Sixers bring Brett Brown back next year? And will the WWE run the Booker T/HHH storyline back with KofiMania? We'll answer all of those questions and more on this edition of The Broad Street Line...
Two Big 5 mainstays - Phil Martelli and Fran Dunphy - will no longer be patrolling the benches for their respective schools. Can both of their replacements return the glory to the two programs? We debate that and another big college basketball story: Was Tom Izzo wrong?
Thanks to the exploits of Joel Embiid and Jimmy Butler, Sixers Nation as a whole is feeling warm and fuzzy... at least for the next day or so. Can Brett Brown and his crew extend the team's longest winning streak of the season... and what does Kofi Kingston need to do in order to get a shot at Wrestlemania?
Happy New Year, everyone! While the new NFL fiscal year is only hours old, we've already seen dozens of deals go down and we're sure there's more to come when it concerns the Philadelphia Eagles. We'll recap everything Howie Roseman has done so far, and later on, we'll take a way-too-early look at Wrestlemania 35!
Philadelphia Eagles GM Howie Roseman never seems to sleep... how else can you explain everything he's done over the past week to free up cap space? We'll examine those moves and tally up how much bread the Phillies have made since Bryce Harper came to town.
Bryce Harper hasn't even stepped foot in Philadelphia yet, and his jersey is literally flying off of the shelves. We'll contribute our piece on HarperMania, preview WWE Fastlane, and marvel at Howie Roseman's cap wizardry...
Bryce Harper wants to bring a winner to Philadelphia, and he signed a 13-year deal to show just how committed he is to the city. And after the Harper talk, we debate exactly how Johnny Manziel got kicked out of an entire country.
Roman Reigns returns, Wayne Simmonds leaves, and Bryce Harper.... well... we're still not sure. It's been a busy week in the sports world, and The Broad Street Line crew will get you caught up as only they can...
Robert Kraft would normally get all of the jokes, but there's an important situation at the heart of the matter, and we explore that on this edition of The Broad Street Line. And in a twist, we dive into the Android/iPhone debate with a look at Samsung's foldable phone.
The Sixers are on the cover of Sports Illustrated, and like clockwork, the dreaded SI curse hits the team. Can the 76ers thrive sans Joel Embiid for a week? We'll answer that question, and we'll recap a wild weekend in WWE...
With 24 games left in the regular season, do the Philadelphia 76ers have enough time to figure it all out? And with Colin Kaepernick settling with the NFL, can we expect to see the former star QB back in the pros this season?
Welcome to Philadelphia, Tobias Harris! A Big Four is cool, but a Big Five is even better! But with the other moves made by their Eastern Conference counterparts, do the Philadelphia 76ers have enough firepower to make it to the NBA Finals?
The trade deadline has come and gone, and Markelle Fultz has gone with it. We examine what his departure means for the Philadelphia 76ers and debate whether or not the Sixers have enough to with the Eastern Conference.
We guess we gotta talk about this Super Bowl, but first... we'll explain how the NFLPA is playing chess while others play checks, and we'll give a pass to Clinton Portis for sipping on Henny before talking the field.
It's trade and buyout season in the NBA, but will the Philadelphia 76ers make any moves before the deadline? It's also #MockDraftSZN for the Eagles, who have a LOT of needs to fill in April's draft....
Between Carson Wentz and Jimmy Butler, there's no shortage of drama on the Philly sports scene. We'll discuss those two issues AND give you our thoughts on this weekend's WWE Royal Rumble and NXT Takeover Phoenix.
If you're a rookie on the Sixers, you'll have to make a LOT of runs to Chick-Fil-a.

The Philadelphia Eagles were on the doorstep on their second straight appearance in the NFC Championship Game... until the magic ran out. Now that the lockers have been cleaned out, we'll take a few moments to look back on a wild 2018 season...
Sean McVay out here getting all these dudes coaching jobs... we'd like to meet him just once so we can come up, too. Maybe new Temple head football coach Rod Carey met McVay to help him land the gig as Manny Diaz's replacement!
Nick Foles, Golden Tate and... Cody Parkey come up big for the Eagles, but can the Birds keep it rolling against the New Orleans Saints this weekend? We'll answer that question and take a way-too-early look at Royal Rumble on this edition of The Broad Street Line - come take a ride!
RIP to the Great Mean Gene Okerlund...
On this episode of The Broad Street Line, we give props the Eagles for sneaking in the back door of the NFC postseason. And keeping with the football theme, we pour out some liquor for the Temple Owls, who only had a head coach for a couple of weeks. Later in the show, we discuss the alleged conflict between Jimmy Butler and Brett Brown.
2018 was a wild year in the world of sports, and we put a bow on it before the calendar switches to 2019. We also predict whether or not Zion Williamson will be a transcendent star and whether Anthony Davis will eventually link up with LeBron in Miami.
Forget the Foles vs. Wentz nonsense... the most important question is: Do the Eagles have a legit shot at the postseason? We'll answer that, lament over the state of the Sixers' bench AND recap a wild WWE TLC card from this past weekend... come take a ride on The Broad Street Line!
Another week, another set of Markelle Fultz updates. But the biggest news is the Phillies' signing of Andrew McCutchen. While the team is still waiting on Harper and Machado, they're definitely building the pieces for a championship team.
We hate to be THOSE GUYS, but the Philadelphia Eagles played at a severe disadvantage on the field Sunday against the Cowboys. Things don't look much better for them going forward, and things don't look good in the WWE right now as they head into the final PPV of 2018.
While Jimmy Butler does it again, we're still waiting for Markelle Fultz to do... something. And while the Sixers struggle with the Eastern Conference, the Philadelphia Eagles have plenty to say about their NFC East foes.
The Philadelphia 76ers lost to the Toronto Raptors for the 12th straight time north of the border despite the recent addition of Jimmy Butler. What do they need to get over the hump, and will Markelle Fultz be that missing piece.
As crazy as the 2018 Philadelphia Eagles' season has been, it pales in comparison to the drama surrounding the Philadelphia 76ers. Ben Simmons is a jump shot away from being an elite player, Jimmy Butler puts the Sixers within a stone's throw of the NBA Finals, and Markelle Fultz is... well, we're not sure what he is. But we discuss it all on this episode.
Jimmy Butler is the closer the Philadelphia 76ers need... but is he enough to get them over the top in the Eastern Conference? We'll discuss that at the top... and then follow up with a debate on the best WWF superstars who never took home the world title...
The Philadelphia Eagles lost to the New Orleans Saints by 1,000 points, but they somehow control their own destiny in the NFC playoff race. We'll debate their postseason prospects, and run down the list of things that we can (and should!) be thankful for in the City of Brotherly Love.
It's Zion Williamson's world, and we're all just living in it. But college basketball will take a backseat for a minute because it's DALLAS WEEK.
The recent performances of both the Eagles and the Sixers have Philadelphia sports fans enraged, but on this edition of The Broad Street Line, Kris and Roy do their best to settle down the masses. And, later in the show, we offer our prayers and well-wishes to WWE superstar Roman Reigns as he takes a leave of absence to focus on his battle with leukemia.
Markelle Fultz and Jayson Tatum will forever be linked... but while the Sixers' young prospect is still developing, the Celtics look like they may have found their cornerstone. We'll also discuss the trashness of the NFC East.
Sean O'Connor of Liberty Ballers joins us LIVE in studio to give you his thoughts on the upcoming 2018-19 NBA season. We also explain why Tiger vs. Phil will be trash, and spend too much time debating the greatest sports video games of all time.
Is the Super Bowl hangover real for the Philadelphia Eagles? Will Shady come back to the City of Brotherly Love? And is a 53-year-old Shawn Michaels really about to return to the ring? We'll answer those questions and more on this episode of The Broad Street Line - tune in!
The QB position is back, but as we're seeing a plethora of points in the NFL this season, who's for real and who's fake? We also debate the authenticity of Markelle Fultz's improved jumper, and wonder whether or not he should be starting for the Philadelphia 76ers this season.
Should the Birds make a play for Le'Veon Bell? Are are we gearing up for another glorified house show with this WWE Super Show-Down in Australia? We'll answer all of those questions and more on this episode of The Broad Street Line.
We saw the Markelle Fultz jumper in action last night... and we're mildly impressed. But not as impressed as we are with the off-field philanthropy of Philadelphia Eagles DE Chris Long. Later in the show, we lament the demise of HBO Boxing.
Carson Wentz is back at the helm for the Philadelphia Eagles as the defending Super Bowl LII champs continue their run towards Atlanta. And we can't let this show go by without showing love to one Eldrick Tiger Woods for winning his first title in five years...
Did Markelle Fultz really take 150,000 jumpers this summer? Did Ben Simmons take any? And can new Philadelphia 76ers' GM Elton Brand really finish the job of "star hunting"? We answer those questions and more as we get ready for the season...
Jordan Matthews is back in the mix, but is he enough to bolster the Philadelphia Eagles' depleted WR all by himself? Also, the crew discusses a mid edition of Hell in a Cell and preview the next big payday for Brock Lesnar
We're only days away from seeing the revamped jump shot of Markelle Fultz, but before the Philadelphia 76ers' Blue/White scrimmage, we'll get you up to speed on the local basketball team, and preview the Eagles' matchup against the Bucs.
On this edition of The Broad Street Line, we celebrate the Philadelphia Eagles' Super Bowl LII banner being raised to the upper levels of Lincoln Financial Field. And, of course, recap their first-ever defense of their first-ever Super Bowl title with a 18-12 victory over the Atlanta Falcons.
This week on the show, we recap a wild week for former Eagles LB Mychal Kendricks, guess how much of a bag Carson Wentz will be getting, and break down the PWI Top 10 list...
Fresh off of the worst preseason game of all time, The Broad Street Line breaks down Mychal Kendricks' controversial statements about his former Philadelphia Eagles' teammates. Kris and Roy also put a clock on the Sixers' GM search, and explain why Urban Meyer continues to keep his job despite being terribly corrupt.

Tune in to hear A TON of behind-the-scenes stories, including what it was like in the Sunday Night Football production truck the moment the Philly Special went down...
The Jones Fracture Curse strikes the Sixers once again.... but that won't stop the local basketball team from being the star of the national TV scene later this season. And after the crew talks basketball, they'll recap an emotional weekend in Canton, OH.
As Philadelphia Eagles legend Brian Dawkins prepares for his turn in the sun at the Pro Football Hall of Fame, The Broad Street Line crew tells you what you can expect to go down in Canton. But, more importantly, Kris and Roy also give well deserved kudos to LeBron James for doing more for education in America than the Secretary of Education.
It's hitting season at Philadelphia Eagles' training camp, but should we be concerned that Carson Wentz hasn't been involved in 11-on-11 activity at all this week? We answer that question, grade the Phillies' moves at the trade deadline, and take a way-too-early look at the card for SummerSlam...
Tiger Woods is in the hunt at The Open Championship and the Philadelphia Eagles officially begin their Super Bowl defense - does it get any better than this? Later in the show, the crew debates the ongoing anthem controversy, and take a certain "analyst" to task for his trash QB rankings.
The NFL can't get out of its own way when it comes to their anthem policy... we discuss what needs to happen next before the $40 million commissioner gets called out again on Twitter. Later in the show, The Broad Street Line crew debates whether or not the Philadelphia 76ers got better this summer.

After The Broad Street Line crew explains how the new NFL drug policy rewards snitching, they marvel at the immediate impact of sports betting, get excited of the prospect of a Tiger Woods/Phil Mickelson clash, and explore the Sixers' Plan C when it comes to star hunting.
The last 365 days have been pretty wild on the Philadelphia sports scene, and on a special edition of The Broad Street Line - LIVE at the 2018 Philadelphia Podcast Festival - we recap the past 12 months as only we can. Media consultant and Undefeated contributor O.J. Spivey joins the crew to provide his unique take on the wild world of sports media.
We're basically at the eve of NBA free agency, and the Sixers are starting to make a serious play for one of the biggest names on the market. We'll also discuss the latest surrounding the Eagles, and help Vince McMahon count the billions coming to him as part of the Fox deal.
On this edition of The Broad Street Line, we'll put a bow on the 2018 NBA Draft and explain how the Sixers' moves on Thursday could put them in prime position to go "star hunting"...
On tonight's episode, we preview this week's NBA Draft, put a bow on WWE's Money in the Bank, and wonder if Jay-Z could be a paradigm shift for the Puma Basketball brand.
While the Philadelphia Eagles held their lavish ring ceremony, the Philadelphia 76ers prepare for the most important off-season in franchise history. But more importantly... sports betting is now legal in New Jersey!
Marshall Harris of Sportsradio 94WIP joins The Broad Street Line as the crew discusses Philly Twitter, the differences in covering sports in different markets, the Philadelphia 76ers' burner scandal, the Philadelphia Eagles' non-trip to the White House and MUCH more!
The Sixers allegedly believe that Bryan Colangelo had NOTHING to do with the various burner accounts... but that's only the SECOND biggest sports story in Philadelphia this week. On this episode, we talk about that invitation that never got an RSVP and debate whether or not the Philadelphia Eagles let their fans down (they didn't).
Collargate rolls on as the Philadelphia 76ers continue to investigate one of the strangest stories in the history of the NBA. The guys also discuss a lackluster NBA Finals and rejoice in the fact that Vegas-style sports betting has come to Delaware.

The NFL shoots itself in the foot with its new anthem policy - a set of rules informally voted on by owners with zero input from the players themselves. We explain why this is a poor decision, and destroy any and all arguments in favor of the change.
The Athletic's Sheil Kapadia joined the crew in the PhillyCAM studio to discuss his career in sports media, the Philadelphia Eagles' improbable run to Super Bowl LII, and whether or not the Philadelphia 76ers have a reasonable chance at landing LeBron James this summer.

Philly's own Hardwork Movement came through the studio and chopped it up with us as we discussed the Eagles' Super Bowl win and the recent success of the Philadelphia 76ers. We also debated which athlete rappers have bars, and gave our review on NFL Draft walkout songs.
The Philadelphia Eagles have the last pick in the first round of the 2018 NFL Draft because THEY WON SUPER BOWL 52. So we'll explore who the champions should pick this weekend, and we'll also take some time to celebrate the Philadelphia Sixers' first-round playoff series victory.
