Lot of Pens fans wearing empty seat costumes.

Cowards pull the kind of shit that the Penguins are pulling right now.

Ergo, the Penguins are cowards.

Holy shit what a spot by Tippett.

Martone is a star.

Past is not necessarily prologue, however.

Alec Bohm's most productive AB of late is getting hit in the elbow.

I still don't understand why Ludacris is everywhere when he's never been responsible for a single good song.

It's early. It's April. It's only been 3+ weeks.

Despite all of the qualifiers, the Phillies are in the process of digging themselves a hole that teams historically aren't able to get themselves out of.

Say they’re unlucky with all this BS dribbler stuff and duckfarts, but the Phillies are not unlucky at the plate. They’re bad. Real bad.

This game is embarrassing yet also completely expected.

"And Bona just could not stick it in."

The Sixers will not get better as long as they are led by Morey and Nurse.

I'm not sure there's a bigger coaching mismatch in the first round this year than Joe Mazzulla vs. Nick Nurse.

The Flyers were *clearly* the best team on the ice tonight. Excellent start to the series.

Times may be a-changing.

Porter Martone is going to be a superstar.

The Phillies are a putrid baseball team right now.

It's time to swap Otto Kemp out for Felix Reyes. Reyes is certainly no sure thing - probably a lotto ticket at best - but Kemp is giving you literally nothing.

DFA Walker after this game. He's useless.

I get that it's only three weeks, so save it, but based on the evidence that we have to this point, each day that passes makes the 2026 Phillies look even more like the 2012 Phillies.

THE FLYERS

The amount of jump that Porter Martone has given the Flyers since joining the team is crazy.

Overall, Dynasty was solid. AEW doesn't do bad PPVs, so it was very far from that, but they usually more than clear the "solid" benchmark. And it didn't feel like this show did that to me. Your mileage may vary, however.

Feels like Darby wins the title on Wednesday or loses and goes heel. The "I need this" stuff is often code for a face who breaks when they can't win the big one.

Agreed. And it's the whole show for me. Not anywhere close to bad because AEW PPVs never are, but just wish I liked it more.

I hope not but I fear so.

I have to think/hope that's an audible if Gabe Kidd's actually injured (which would suck) because a 1-day reign is just stupid.

If it was intentional, it goes to how mind-bogglingly badly The Dogs have been booked since they debuted.

If I didn't know better, I'd think that a Bryan Danielson comeback match against Gabe Kidd is in the midst of being teased.

Nice self-doubt/redemption arc coming for Will Ospreay heading into the world title match at All In in August.
