There has to be video of this, how can there not.


I sometimes think that I can't possibly detest the media any more than I already do. Then something like this happens. If not for you guys here, I'm happy to say I would never hear about this kind of garbage.

Hysterical how the media rats never fail to circle the wagons and cry about freedom of the press when it's convenient.

Great article showing the closeness Embiid had with his brother.

Can the season get off to worse start for the sixers? It’s hard watching the games right now without our depleted lineup. If he gets a lengthy suspension, we might be fighting for a play-in spot by the time he comes back.

What does that have to do with the events at hand? Embiid just refuses to grow up. You should be more upset that Daryl Morey is your GM,



Have fun with your ban!


Meh, last time I saw a moderator in here it was an asshat scolding a 6ers fan. This forum will die slowly but surely.

I am banned at the general forum for posting unrelated YT videos to add some humor and overdid it. There are lots of mods over there.

And I am not upset at Morey for paying Joel and not Harden, regardless of what promises that were made between them, otherwise we wouldn't have ended up with PG whom I think would help us more in the playoffs.

Marcus Hayes is an asshat. Joel doesn't need to shove him. That is all.

Pompey has restricted who can comment on his tweets. Unsurprisingly he's a coward.

That is the most predictable thing in the world.

Why does Philly have to employ these hacks? Let Pompey grift elsewhere, and while we're at it finally send Marcus Hayes into the retirement home he should have been in 10 years ago.

We read through the threads daily and address reports, but often it is difficult to post, at least for me, when I spend the limited time I have performing mod duties. I check the reported posts almost daily.

Honestly, we’ve gotta stop letting reporters into the locker room. Players should get privacy to shower, dress, and decompress before hitting the podium to answer question.

Agreed, the NFL has already addressed the meat watchers. NBA will do the same after this.

Trusted reporters that truly have an "in" still have value in providing insight on teams and players. But, with social media and podcasts other media forms... Meat watching reporters can just wait for the press conference in the press room.

This is something I've felt passionately about forever, and it's only now coming back up and I'm all like, "About freakin time..."

There was a recent news video or YouTube etc. talking about it - I guess one of the big-4's PA's wants it banned and reporters are taking the position, "You CANT keep ups out of the Locker Room... we have THE RIGHT!!!" I'm a Capital City police commander's son and a Penn State Political Science Major that had a few minors including History, and let me assure you - in my humble experience, like oh I don't know, 99.9% of the time you here people claiming "rights" - they either don't understand the right they're claiming or simply don't have that right whatsoever.

Some video from back in the day was attached to the YouTube thing I saw (on reporters in locker rooms etc.) and I guess a famous woman sports reporter who must have been a pioneer in women reporting sports etc, - says something like "When they ask me, 'Why do you think you can go into the locker room, why do you want to go in?" - I {her} respond: I don't WANT to go, I HAVE to go, it's *my WORKPLACE* ... it's MY OFFICE..." === Uhh no biatch , it's THEIR workplace & office, and it belongs to the team that owns the stadium, If I owned a team, I wouldn't let them in without buying a ticket ... ain't no Free Lunches around here ... Do you have the right to send an email to a player asking for comment? Sure. If you can somehow get their phone number, should you be able to call them? I guess, until you get a response like souperdouche Rodgers who told Scheft to "Lose his number" ... just because you chose to be a Reporter as a career doesn't give you any right to bother me, contact me if I tell you I don't want to be contacted, certainly not bother me in my "workplace/office" WHEN I'M NAKED BTW...

I just don't get it. The Entitlement is strong in that occupation. And what's the worst is , these days every swining-douche with a camera phone just whips it out, sticks it in people's faces, and claims "I'M A MEMBER OF THE *MEDIA* !!! FREEDOM OF THE PRESS.. I HAVE THE RIGHT!!!


Kindly reference that 99.9% of the time not-having-said-rights. I'm with the players here. 101%

I wonder what other championship team has ever started 1-5 and been this unserious about winning.
