Let’s Hope the Phillies Make the Playoffs, for this Young Woman’s Sake
Published:
So this young woman, “Rossi,” no relation to Portia de, makes Philly sports content and might be in trouble if the Phils miss the playoffs:
“Let a homeless guy get your (sic) pregnant” currently has 584,977 likes. Incredible. But it’s not the top comment on the Crossing Broad account. The top comment belongs to The Real Malik Joe, who has collaborated with Pagan on videos. He says Rossi needs to get a hot dog and re-sell it on the subway, which seems quite doable. What’s more is that his comment only has 1,252 likes, so I believe the reason it’s currently at the top is because Instagram is pushing up a verified account that we’ve interacted with in the past.
However, going to the personal IG, homeless is at the top, now with 585,181 likes:
So there’s gonna be a judgment call here on what exactly the top comment is. An easy out, perhaps, if this thing goes sideways. But if the Phillies make the playoffs, it will be disaster averted, and it looks like they will indeed qualify. They are currently 55-41 and on pace for either the division title or a wild card spot, barring an outrageous collapse. Last year at this point, they had 62 wins, and it was 48 wins the year prior, so it’s looking good.
Great engagement on that post, btw. Probably enough revenue to sign a couple of bullpen arms.
