Kevin, Bob, Anthony, and Russ offer their takeaways from the XFL’s first weekend, including what concepts the NFL might try to poach and whether or not Philadelphia could support an XFL team. Plus, the Temple stadium situation and thoughts on the Eagles’ decision to not hire a singular offensive coordinator. The guys then react to Major League Baseball reportedly looking to expand the playoff field and allow top teams to pick their playoff opponents. They then tackle the Sixers’ trade deadline moves, Al Horford and Joel Embiid shushing the crowd, and whether or not Ben Simmons has gotten a fair shake.
