Welcome to the Show

A look inside of the life of a Philadelphia sports fan/Temple University student.

KK38 came up big time tonight

7 hit complete game shutout win. Only 3 K’s, but no walks. I will take that. Nice job by KK38 and the rest of the Fightin’ Phils. Rubber match of the 4 game set against St. Louis later today. Doc Halladay toes the rubber. 

UPenn and Temple rank # 1 and 2 on list of "Most Dangerous Colleges to Go To" because, you know, they're actually in the city. Meanwhile, Villanova ranks #1 on "Highest Caviar Consumption Rate" list

loladelphia:

In a revelation that’s surprising to pretty much no one, University of Pennsylvania and Temple University ranked #1 and #2 on a list that ranks the “Most Dangerous Colleges to Go To.” Check out these staggering statistics:

Murders: UPenn had four, Temple had one.

Forcible Rapes: UPenn had 27, Temple had 34.

Robberies: Upenn had 176, Temple had 192

Aggravated assaults: UPenn had 40, Temple had 97

Burglaries: UPenn had 117, Temple had 747

Car thefts: UPenn had 28, Temple had 56

Arsons: UPenn had 0, Temple had 1

——-

Amazingly, despite being outnumbered by Temple on almost every category, UPenn ranked more dangerous than Temple due to the fact that fewer people attend the college. There is an added element of danger about going to college in the city, but both UPenn and Temple are fine universities, and I doubt this list means anything or comes as any kind of surprise to anybody who attends there, or who has attended there…because they’re actually in the city.  Unlike, say, Villanova, which ranked number 1 on a list that ranked consumption of caviar. Or not. But you get the idea. Nova sucks.

Buzzed

It may just be the LaBatt talking, but… I need to date better people. The last one still calls to remind me of how much I am a “nice person”. Sarcasm on the “nice person” part…. not the still calls part.

How did I miss this?

Bobby Ryan is a crazy cat person. Who knew?

WAKE UP PHILADELPHIA AND LET ME HEAR YOU SING, WE ARE THE ORANGE AND THE BLACK! THE ORANGE AND THE BLACK! (all caps necessary)

Sidney Crosby is the world’s biggest hypocrite.

Calls out other players for cheap shots, but delivers cheap shots himself. Calls out other teams for using 4th liners when the game is over, supports his own coach for using 4th liners when the game is over.
