1 week ago | thelibertyline.com | Drew Smith

PhilliesThe Phillies just keep rolling. Kyle Schwarber launched his 23rd homer of the season, Cristopher Sánchez was absolutely locked in for eight innings, and the Phillies edged the Marlins 2–1 on Thursday night to take three of four in the series. Kyle Schwarber came to the plate in the eighth with the game tied, saw a 1–0 sinker from Anthony Bender, and obliterated it 428 feet to right-center. Just a no-doubt missile.

Adam Schefter made his golf media debut at the Travelers Championship, and it took about five minutes for him to fire off one of the most head-scratching comparisons we’ve heard all year. Adam Schefter, clearly shaking off the rust, compared Tommy Fleetwood to Dak Prescott. The logic, both have failed to “win” in the big moments. 🚨⛳️🏈 #WATCH — NFL Insider @AdamSchefter makes his debut as an on-course reporter following the Rory McIlroy + Keegan Bradley featured group.

Another SpaceX Starship exploded during testing Wednesday night in Texas. Starship 36 blew up on the stand at Starbase, sending flames into the sky and providing all the usual footage for people online to mock, meme, and dunk on Elon Musk. Just for clarity the launch wasn’t planned for today. This is testing before the Starship 10 launch later this month or early July. Here is slowmo video.
Update: John Kruk has been compromised, backtracks Philadelphia 76ers boycott

1 week ago | thelibertyline.com | Drew Smith

Phillies, SixersWell, that was quick. John Kruk has already pulled back from the front lines of the Philadelphia 76ers boycott after joining the resistance on Tuesday night. Two nights ago in Miami, Kruk said on the broadcast Tuesday night that he’ll never ring the bell at a Sixers game again and that he’s boycotting the team. That was music to the ears of most 76ers fans these days, who are completely fed up with the organization that they once loved.
Free Kon Kneuppel: Could Duke’s 2nd prospect be the best pick for the Sixers at No. 3?

1 week ago | thelibertyline.com | Steve Baruti

SixersThis is for the Kon Kneuppel Truthers. As Sixers fans who survived the madness of the past decade, I think we can all agree the NBA Draft is far from an exact science. Trying to predict which teenager is going to become the next All-Star or hell, even a successful role player leads to untended consequences. No one knows that better than the city of Philadelphia.

PhillySeventeen seasons. Let that sink in. It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia has been pumping out unapologetically unhinged comedy since 2005, and somehow it’s still going strong. The trailer just dropped for Season 17, and the Gang isn’t just back… they’re going nuclear. New episodes drop July 9 on FXX and Hulu, with an 8-episode run that looks like pure gold. The first trailer for ‘IT’S ALWAYS SUNNY IN PHILADELPHIA’ Season 17 has been released. Premiering July 9 on FXX.
Ranger Suárez keeps dealing, Bryson Stott goes yard and the Phillies stay hot in Miami

1 week ago | thelibertyline.com | Drew Smith

Bryson Stott launched a three-run bomb, Ranger Suárez shoved for seven strong, and the Phillies beat the Marlins 4–2 Wednesday night to remind everyone why they still run the NL East. Since getting torched by the Diamondbacks for 7 runs back on May 4, Suárez has flipped the switch. Over his last eight starts, the lefty has a ridiculous 1.17 ERA, with eight straight quality starts, the longest such streak in baseball.
Saquon Barkley gets crowned, Jalen Hurts gets clowned in CBS Sports Top 100

1 week ago | thelibertyline.com | Drew Smith

EaglesIf you were looking for logic in CBS Sports’ annual Top 100 NFL Players list, keep looking. Pete The Rat Prisco is back with his yearly rankings, and while there’s plenty for Eagles fans to be proud of, there’s one glaring insult that stands out with Jalen Hurts coming in at very disrespectful No. 52. Let’s start with the good. Saquon Barkley debuted at No. 3 overall. Third best player in the entire league after rushing for 2,005 yards and leading the Eagles to a Super Bowl win checks out.
