Bynum Spotting: Images of a Loon (Andrew Bynum's Ferrari Gets Ticketed)
We’ve written quite extensively about Andrew Bynum’s Ferrari. Twice it's been spotted at gas stations, presumably being treated to a few sips of premium courtesy of your ticket money. Then getting filled with beer. Then getting towed. Then we learned Bynum was selling what appears to be a dif...

Fat Delmon Young is Not Particularly Enthused About Playing the Sport of Baseball
I knew I shouldn't have invested in that image recognition software... Fat Delmon Young’s fat era is off to a fat and annoying start, it seems. He spoke to the media today after taking batting practice for the first time this spring. Ryan Lawrence over at Philly.com has the full transcript, bu...

Video: Flyers Crazy Equipment Manager
I want to get this guy on a podcast. He’s the only person in America who can get away with jumping into Peter Laviolette on the bench. But how the hell old is he? 17 years with the organization?! I thought he was like 22. End of the video is the best. Watch as Settlemyre, like every other ...

UPDATE: All the Eagles Reporters are Saying Howard Eskin's Miserable 2013 Will Continue
This Tweet says it all: Howard Eskin is reporting that the Eagles will release Nnamdi Asomugha today. Notgonnaplayhereanymore was due to make $15 million next season, but will still pocket $4 million, according to Eskin. No other reports (yet), and Howard’s track record has been spotty of lat...

Oh, That's Just CB All Over Computer Screens at TMZ
Somewhere, the commenters who complain that this site has become “too TMZ for [their] liking” just saw their annoying heads explode. Our Michael Vick dog training photos made the rounds yesterday, including several appearances on TMZ, where the Crossing Broad logo was flashed a dozen or so t...

Deconstructing Adam Aron's Magical Media Tour
I've had enough. Adam Aron keeps saying that he views fans as unpaid management consultants, thousands of passionate followers that give solicited and unsolicited opinions on each decision made by the newish Sixers ownership group. So, knowing that, consider this post free advice to Aron. Con...
this is so 2009 this article & idiots are taking the bait
Photos: Michael Vick is Attending Dog Training Classes with His Dog at a New Jersey PetSmart
Back in October, our very own Adam Reigner noticed a box of Milk Bones in a picture tweeted by Michael Vick. A week later, Vick released a statement acknowledging that he owned a dog. What kind? What sorts of training methods are being used? Is it SUCH A CUTE LITTLE BOY (OR GIRL)? These were ...

No, Really: Andrew Bynum Presser, Trade A Good Thing For Sixers
People are upset. Understandably so. Because in his eleventy zillionth media appearance this year, Andrew Bynum gave Sixers fans -- and non-Sixers fans, and Philly sports fans, and Philly residents, and South Jersey residents, and... -- the Charlie Murphy treatment. At least that's how it fee...

Video: John Gonzalez and Marcus Hayes Get Heated with Each Other
There are not many things I like about Marcus Hayes’ public persona. So it was very fulfilling to watch his hardened stubbornness get quasi eviscerated by John Gonzalez when the topic of rebounding in basketball came up. “Gravity and height-- it’s a wonderful combination.” - Marcus Hayes Giv...

Gagne Scores, Milbury Skivers Ovi, Bryz Talks About Stick Throwing
Was Simon Gagne scoring the most Simon Gagne goal ever the least surprising thing to happen last night? Like, you know Ed Snider sent a little sweetener to the hockey and NBC-Comcast-we-own-every-fucking-thing gods for a little karma rubdown. Please sirs, station Simon in front of the net so ...
Sean Brace blocked me on twitter for busting his chops in a good way. I'll never listen to that dude again on his terrible radio show.

Jayson Werth Totally Loves the Phillies and Thinks Writers are Stupid
The word Phillies is never far from the lips of Jayson Werth. It’s like he can almost taste what it was like to play in a real baseball city. Usually, he's saying that he hates the team or the fans. But not yesterday. Yesterday, he told reporters in Florida that he fears his makers. Fears the ...

Doug Collins Hates His Basketball Team
I told you. I told you this job was going to kill Doug Collins. Speaking to reporters after his team shit the bed and then rolled in it against the Magic at the Wells Fargo Center last nigh, Collins ripped every lazy, no-good, half-assed Sixer, questioning their effort, dedication, passion, ...
Homer should be fired for signing this head case stiff & trading JVR
Reframing the Bryz Debate
I’ll gladly admit that I'm beating a dead horse at this point. But after reading the comments on this morning’s Flyers post, and continuously getting bombarded by Type OB (Orange and Black) nuts who refuse to admit that, overall, Ilya Bryzgalov has been disappointing*, I can’t help myself. *...

Bernie Parent and Wayne Gretzky Hung Out at the Flyers Game Last Night
Bernie Parent just keeps living the life. Last night, he was seated with WAYNE GRETZKY at the Flyers-Maple Leafs game. Pictures via reader Mike, who is in the Flyers jersey, who will almost certainly tell me what the two legends talked about???
Candy in rare form.
Um, "MLB 13: The Show" Player Ratings are Curious, to Say the Least
The folks over at Pastapadre (the best sports video game site you will find) have player ratings for every team in MLB: The Show 13, and, well, some of them are quite suspect. Take a look at the top seven Phils: 96 Cliff Lee 95 Jonathan Papelbon 94 Roy Halladay 94 Cole Hamels 94 Carlos Ru...

Michael Schwimmer is Content Being the Loser That He is
This was in the roundup this morning, but I felt it deserved calling out. Michael Schwimer, the now ex-Phillies below average reliever who once wrote a letter to Grantland, who once complained about me throwing an extra M into his name, who is married to a female bodybuilder, who whined last...

Jake The Snake Tricked a Bunch of Fat, Sweaty Yinzers Last Night
Dan Bylsma looks like a little boy. Is it weird that's all I can think about after a thrilling 6-5 Flyers win against that god awful, pansy-ass team from the sweaty undercarriage of Pennsylvania? Dan Bylsma looks like a little boy in a big boy suit. Sweet glasses. Fix your collar, sir. If tha...

This Yinzer Doesn't Have a Future in Writing
You may be familiar with Onward State, the independent student-run Penn State website that reported Joe Paterno’s death before it happened did a great job covering the Jerry Sandusky stuff. Most of their writers, some of whom are readers (and friends?) of CB, are very good. One guy, is not. He ...

Old Grey Beards: Cliff Lee and Jayson Werth
Together, their contracts will pay them over $240 million (photos via USA Today) Somewhere, my 2009 self misses itself, which is making for one confusing internal conversation.
