we are officially reaching a point with philly sports where lebron is simply not worth the curse we’re experiencing
Since this post:
-Flyers had the worst start in franchise history with 9 straight losses
-Ariel Hukporti tore his Achilles, out for the season
-Jalen Hurts is full of blood clots and the team nearly killed him by flying him overseas
-Eagles still haven't won a game since

I’m just gonna say - back when the Academy of Natural Sciences museum was open and cheering for the Eagles, we were winning games - even the Super Bowl. How many games have the Eagles won since Drexel shut down the Academy on September 27th? #drexelcurse #savethemuseum
Can't tell if this counts under the ANSP curse or if this is more of a Phillies type situation
In Philadelphia we just dig them out of the ooze and make them our sports mascots
I warned you !!!!!
Breaking: #Eagles QB Jalen Hurts is out for Sunday due to a superficial blood clot.
Full statement from the #Eagles on QB Jalen Hurts:
Â
“On Thursday, October 8th, Jalen visited the training room after practice requesting treatment for his calf. He informed the medical staff he had been cleated during the Rams game on October 4th. This was his first treatment session for the calf injury following the game, after having practiced in full both Wednesday and Thursday. On Friday, Jalen received treatment, practiced in full, and was added to the practice report.
Â
“Out of an abundance of caution, an ultrasound was performed on Saturday following the team’s flight to London and walkthrough. The ultrasound revealed a superficial blood clot. Our medical staff and doctors in London reviewed the results and concluded that activity and mobility were important and that Jalen could safely play. Doctors recommended a follow-up ultrasound within 72 hours of the game and the return flight to Philadelphia.Â
Â
“Jalen played without limitation in the game Sunday, received treatment on Monday and Tuesday, and practiced in full on Wednesday, as reflected in the practice report. Throughout our time in London and this week, we have remained in communication with the league office regarding the matter. Â
Â
"On Wednesday night, a follow-up ultrasound revealed movement in the small blood clot. Jalen will be out for Sunday’s game vs. the Panthers as we determine the appropriate course of treatment. His health and safety are our highest priority.”
I warned you !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! xitter.cf/RapSheet/status/211154…

The Academy of Natural Sciences in Philadelphia was essential for my development as a scientist and we cannot let it go away. Let’s pressure Drexel University to keep it open
@acadnatsci @savetheacademy @drexeluniv #SaveTheAcademy
Phillies are allowed to be as ass as they want as long as Middleton throws the Academy some cash

heyyyyyyyyy save-the-academy.org/
one of my good friends has a large billionaire patron who sponsors his content & is largely hands off. this means he doesn’t have to run specific sponsors or ads on his platform that feel unnatural & disruptive.
from a strict creator monetization + livability perspective this seems like the cleanest model for content creation.
i.e. creator can focus entirely on producing interesting work & the audience gets an undisturbed experience. the patron gets cultural influence, intellectual stimulation, or simply the satisfaction. more wealthy ppl should do this.
