Jalen Hurts is Singlehandedly Keeping Philadelphia Kids in School
Meantime, let’s get a philanthropy/football crossover update:
A bunch of Philly schools closing early again today due to excessive heat, though the 10 that received air conditioners from Jalen Hurts’ foundation will have a full day. This was, and continues to be, the #Eagles’ QB’s goal as he launched his @JalenHurtsFound this summer. https://t.co/3mzFfxpVKn

The fact that it’s 2024 and kids are still being sent home from Philadelphia public schools because of excessive heat is ridiculous. Maybe don’t start them before Labor Day when it’s 90 degrees out. Everybody who has anything to do with the administration of the Philadelphia School District should be embarrassed that the only reason 10 schools have a full day on Wednesday is because the Eagles quarterback values HVAC.
Here’s the other thing – if you’re one of these kids, are you pissed at Hurts right now? You could have had a half day, but nooooo, QB1 just had to go and donate air conditioners to your school. You’re sitting there at 1:30 p.m. in algebra when you could be home playing Fortnite or making TikToks. Now you’ve turned impressionable young children AGAINST the Birds. This is how they become 49ers and Cowboys fans.
