Philly Sports Chaos and Cures for Your Broken Heart

After a week that saw the Phillies crush souls and the Eagles implode on national TV, “Weekend Rips” returns to keep the Delaware Valley entertained (and slightly less miserable).

Ryan Conway dives into Sunday’s Eagles-Vikings showdown — where Kevin Patullo reportedly discovered the second page of the playbook — plus Flyers-Wild action, Union’s playoff push, and a roundup of trending TLL stories ranging from the Phanatic’s deportation to cosmic black holes. Mix in Dine Latino Week, open streets in Queen Village, and a few drinks around Philly, and you’ve got everything you need to forget this week ever happened — at least until kickoff.

He also questioned Bryce Harper’s elite status, hinted at Otto Kemp as an everyday player (God help us), and claimed the Phillies simply “faced the wrong club” in the Dodgers. Between delusional optimism and passive shots at the team’s stars, the only clear takeaway is that Sleepy Dave might secretly hate us all.
