Summary

The Sixers are undefeated and have the attention of the city again. Sheil is joined by Rich Hofmann of PHLY to discuss the team's hot start and rookie sensation V.J. Edgecombe. How much of a threat are they in the East? What should we expect from Joel Embiid when he’s no longer on a minutes restriction? Sheil is then joined by Anthony Dabbundo, a.k.a. Tony Bunz, to discuss the latest drama with the Phillies. Is there a world where Bryce Harper gets traded? Plus, the Eagles traded fourth-year receiver John Metchie III and a 2027 sixth-round selection to the Jets for nickelback Michael Carter II and a 2027 seventh-round pick.
