The Italian Air Force just buzzed the Comcast tower.

The Phillies have lots of air cover to bring back Jeurys Familia or Craig Kimbrel today.

Thought NBC did an elite job with the hockey broadcasts. Kenny Albert and Olcyzk elevated the games plus Tirico crushed the Jim McKay role. We were only missing Reggie Miller repeatedly telling us how huge this game was for both countries. 😂😂😂😂

The Simpsons paid tribute to the late writer Dan McQuade tonight.

Phillies also clinched a Triple Crown of sorts of organizational batting titles today. Trea Turner (National League, .304), Justin Crawford (International League, .334), Felix Reyes (Eastern League, .335).

Counterpoint: Working more JT Realmuto into the Phillies lineup as a left fielder is a solution in search of a problem. Nobody watching last year’s team thought to themselves “Boy, if only there were multiples of JT to fill the lineup.”

Some thoughts on the DeVonta Smith extension: ** A smart, easy move. DeVonta is an elite receiver and an important culture player ** Worrying about the money is overthinking it. You pay elite players. Especially home grown ones. ** Good thing DeVonta gets paid before next season. Now all the skill players (AJ, Smith, Saquon, Dallas) are paid. Very important. Touches don’t matter as much when players are paid. ** He was never going anywhere. The #Eagles were always going to pay him. ** Paying both AJ Brown and DeVonta Smith is the right move. It’s always a huge investment into the passing game by Lurie and Howie. ** This wouldn’t stop me from drafting a WR at 22

The exclusive @NFL playoff game on @peacock averaged 23M viewers - making it by far the most streamed live event in U.S. history. It also drove the Internet to its largest usage in a single day - ever! This is truly a watershed (and proud) moment for streaming video and media!

The time has come. The choice is yours. Dolphins-Chiefs streams exclusively on @peacock tonight. You can get a full month for $5.99, or for a limited time a full year for $29.99. #TermsApply #shill nbcsports.com/nfl/profootbal…

The Eagles wouldn’t beat the Jardiance dancers.

The Eagles will have to spend the next week pretending they have a shot in hell to win in the playoffs.

Arizona played the last half of the series knowing the preciousness of outs. They were muted, all business, all craft, all discipline. They played with excellence. We played with bluster - no focus. All of them. Harper included.

At this point change Trea Turner's walkup music to For He's a Jolly Good Fellow and set off fireworks when he makes contact

Today @ComcstSpectacor and @cordishco announced plans for a first-of-its-kind, next-generation #esports and entertainment arena. The 3,500-seat venue will be home to the Philadelphia @Fusion and located in the heart of the Philadelphia Sports Complex. comca.st/2uprl4t

What a great morning with @alroker and @sheinellejones from @TODAYshow on the Comcast Center Plaza celebrating the countdown to #NFLKickoff with @miketirico and @SNFonNBC. Join us this afternoon at 4pm to see @jimcramer from @MadMoneyonCNBC

Thank you, Philadelphia. It's been a dream come true. playerstribu.ne/2Q5gc2q

You’re overrated.
