It is dumb.  The fact that anyone tunes in to watch the nothingness that it is is dramatically dumber.   They are profiting from stupidity.  Good for them, but the videos themselves provide nothing of value for the viewer.  There's no point to them.

time is killed?

If Embiid stays healthy(big if) the Sixers will win the title next year.

Yeah and if my Uncle had wheels he’d be a bicycle

Eagles CB Zech McPhearson expected to take part in Training Camp

An Achilles tear kept Zech McPhearson off the field for the entire 2023 season. The fourth-year Eagles corner has successfully rehabbed the injury, though, and he should be available when training camp starts in July, Adam La Rose of Pro Football Rumors reports.

McPhearson indicated in April that he was on track to suit up for the start of the regular season, so this latest update comes as little surprise. Still, a return to full health would be a welcomed development to an Eagles secondary which struggled last season and has seen a number of new arrivals. Philadelphia’s special teams will also be bolstered by McPhearson’s return.

"I’m 100 percent, man,” the 26-year-old said (via Inside the Birds’ Andrew DiCecco). "I’m just glad to be back. My body’s feeling good, I’m feeling good. I just wanna go out there and compete. I got so much built up inside me. I got a chip on my shoulder. It’s a lot going on outside, but I block out all that noise.”

McPhearson missed OTAs and minicamp due to his rehab, but taking part in training camp will set him up for a return to action this fall. The former fourth-rounder made 33 regular season appearances across his first two Eagles campaigns, taking part in four playoff contests during that time. He logged only a rotational defensive role in that stretch, but he could serve as a familiar slot corner option behind returnee Avonte Maddox in 2024. McPhearson has also worked as a backup on the perimeter, though the Eagles have a pair of rookies (Quinyon Mitchell and Cooper DeJean) capable of handling that role.

I've been going over all kinds of roster scenarios and I just can't find one that has him on the team.

Sports provided nothing either, it’s just entertainment. Don’t be so old. 
 

Guarantee you’ll see Maxey or Embiid in one of those videos soon. 

Only if it gets posted here.

 

Sports provide more than these.   Professional sports are talented individuals doing something that the average person cannot.  Its a little different.  But yes, I'm old... and getting older by the day.  If you know the solution to that, please share it.

As usual it'll hinge on Embiids health. So yes probably right. However,  we can now argue that this is the best big 3 in the league. Shooting is improved with this and the Gordon signing.  And we have a legitimate backup center again which is very important. 

Big time improvement from what this team was last year. 

And they potentially have up to 15 million more for another addition, before recruiting veteran minimum guys. 

Anything that hinges on Embiid's health will be off the hinges.

I don't see it either, but the argument could be that we end up with zero slot CBs and he's the one guy that is pseudo-trained up for it.

You're half-right.  It is garbage food but my wife likes it and she is definitely not garbage. She doesn't like butter either but we're closing in on 40 years of marriage and I'm as happy as a clam about that.

Wife has the ability to make me feel younger by the day.  Unfortunately at times I make me feel like my mind made a promise that my body can’t fill.

Pretty easy to make Chik-Fil-A chicken.  Some believe the secret is pickle juice but the real flavor associated with their chicken comes from confectionery sugar.   I prefer to pan fry over deep fry but both work.  Personally, if I am going to fry a chicken breast, I prefer a buttermilk marinade more than sugar in the dredge although I do have a good recipe for a brown sugar chicken (grilled).

Forty years.  Congrats.  Working on my next forty years.

They’re opening up a location where I am this summer so I’ll try it out.

I already know I’m a garbage person, so we’ll see if the food closes the loop.
