In this episode, Michael Smerconish dives into the explosive debate over the nationwide “No Kings” rallies, which drew millions across America this past weekend. Two excellent voices join the conversation with very different takes: Colby Hall, founding editor of Mediaite, questions whether these protests accomplish anything beyond social media posts and self-satisfaction. Will Bunch, national opinion columnist for The Philadelphia Inquirer, argues that the movement's true power lies in restoring community, courage, and hope in a divided democracy. From the power of collective action to the pitfalls of performative protest, this conversation asks: Can massive marches really make meaningful change—or are we mistaking hashtags for history?

Not only was Jalen Hurts called upon to step up, he got a phone call in the middle of his post-game press conference in Minnesota. “When you win, everyone wants to call you,” he joked. In the Eagles' 28-22 victory over the Vikings, the star quarterback was certainly a winner, delivering one of the most statistically-impressive performances of his career. The 326 passing yards and three touchdowns were much needed, as Hurts, along with the dynamic receiving duo of A.J. Brown and DeVonta Smith, led the way in getting the Eagles back on track after a two-game slide. What changed on offense, where plenty of criticism has been directed this year? How did a couple of welcomed faces help the defense clamp down? The Philadelphia Inquirer's Jeff McLane and Marcus Hayes give their takes on the Eagles' success in Week 7. 00:00 Jalen Hurts: perfection marks major progress 05:29 Offensive adjustments pay explosive dividends 16:51 Welcome back, Nakobe Dean and Jalen Carter! 21:25 Concerns about the edge and…Brandon Graham?!?! unCovering the Birds is a production of The Philadelphia Inquirer and KYW Newsradio Original Podcasts.

“Solutions.” This has been the buzzword of choice for Nick Sirianni this week, as he and the Eagles try to turn things around after back-to-back losses. The Eagles' head coach says he's not in the business of assigning blame; instead, he wants answers. So, in the spirit of Sirianni's spin, The Philadelphia Inquirer's Jeff McLane examines one of the biggest issues holding the Eagles back - Jalen Hurts' recent inconsistencies - and offers up ways the team can help the quarterback recapture the dynamic form he's displayed during his career in Philadelphia. 00:00 The “solutions” business 04:22 Solution 1: Designed runs 08:06 Solution 2: “Autonomy,” and Hurts' pre-snap protections 13:26 Solution 3: The drop-back passing game 16:50 Solution 4: Speeding up the pre-snap operation unCovering the Birds is a production of The Philadelphia Inquirer and KYW Newsradio Original Podcasts.

It's been almost a full century since Ojibwe hockey player Taffy Abel first set foot on the ice as a New York Rangers defenseman. It was a historic moment that was not acknowledged at the time in the professional hockey world or even by Abel himself. At the time, he kept his Native American identity a secret — at first to escape the forced attendance at Indian Boarding Schools, then later to avoid the discrimination that could hinder his career. Now, his descendants want him recognized, after the fact, as the man who broke the pro hockey color barrier. Abel carried the American flag in the first Winter Olympics in 1924. He went on to help both the Rangers and the Chicago Blackhawks win Stanley Cup championships. GUESTS Aaron Payment (Sault Ste.

There's clearly something wrong with the Eagles. All that “wait-and-see” couching about it being early in the season and the need to be patient, that stuff is out the window after the team's ugly 34-17 loss to the New York Giants. The defeat was the second in five days for the defending Super Bowl champs, which now have a mini-bye to not only lick their wounds, but figure out how to get back on track. How much of the blame goes to the players? Could first-year offensive coordinator Kevin Patullo already be on the hot seat? The Philadelphia Inquirer's Jeff McLane and Olivia Reiner sort through the messy storylines from a disappointing night at the Meadowlands. 00:00 What (and who) is wrong with the Eagles? 03:56 “This is a team that should have been able to handle the [Denver] loss better” 06:01 About the offensive coordinator's job… 13:12 They Sirianni-Patullo-Lurie dynamic 17:57 What happened to the quarterback-run game? 19:50 Injuries and other defensive concerns unCovering the Birds is a production of The Philadelphia Inquirer and KYW Newsradio Original Podcasts.

MLB Pipeline prospect analyst and reporter Jim Callis returns to the Jack Vita Show, to preview the 2025 Arizona Fall League. Jim has been covering prospects for over 35 years. In today's episode, he shares some stories from previous years at the Arizona Fall League. He gives a quick rundown of what fans can expect from AFL, and why they should follow along online, and make a trip to Arizona for the AFL experience. This is Jack's third year on-scene at the Arizona Fall League. Last year, he provided coverage of Philadelphia Phillies top pitching prospect Andrew Painter for The Philadelphia Inquirer. This year, he plans to pick up freelance work for other outlets, covering prospects participating in AFL. The Fall League has become a favorite for Jack, and he shares why it's one of the best hidden gems in sports. Jim provides a look at what prospects fans should keep an eye on in the Arizona Fall League this year. This year's AFL crop features eleven players from MLB Pipeline's Top 100 prospects list: Kevin McGonigle (no. 2), Sebastian Walcott (no. 6), Josue De Paula (no. 13), Braden Montgomery (no. 35), Alfredo Duno (no. 48), Charlie Condon (no. 61), Blake Mitchell (no. 62), Jonny Farmelo (no. 75), Rhett Lowder, (no. 80), Hagen Smith (no. 88) and Cam Collier (no. 94). Jim also discusses under-the-radar prospects that could break out this year in the AFL. Last year, Caleb Durbin won AFL Breakout Player of the Year. Now, he's a key cog in the Milwaukee Brewers' potent lineup, as the club pushes for its first World Series in franchise history. Later, Jim shares stories of Tim Tebow and Kyle Schwarber participating in the Fall League. Both played in the AFL in 2016. It's a crash course in AFL that you certainly will NOT want to miss!

The Eagles aren't on the brink - not even close. But with a quick, four-day turnaround looming before their next game, another bad performance could change the tone around the team, and fast. In the aftermath of the Eagles giving up 18 unanswered points en route to a 21-17 loss to Denver, The Philadelphia Inquirer's Jeff McLane and Jeff Neiburg pick apart what went wrong, and what can be fixed before Thursday's matchup with the Giants. 00:00 Why it's not time to panic, yet... 05:48 Too many dropbacks for Jalen Hurts, too few touches for Saquon Barkley 10:28 Hurts' one, key recurring problem throughout his career 15:38 The missed deep connection between Hurts and A.J.

When the Eagles opened their locker room to the media this week for the first time since leaving Tampa with a victory, A.J. Brown's latest social media-instigated saga was the focal point of the media. Reporters swarmed his locker stall, waiting for the star wideout to explain himself. One locker over, however, the team's other stud receiver stood and smiled. Over the years, DeVonta Smith has seen this show before. While Smith has been far less outspoken than Brown, he too has experienced a dip in production through the first month of the season. How does Smith feel about it? What does he think the Eagles can do to get him more involved? The Philadelphia Inquirer's Jeff McLane goes one-on-one with the Slim Reaper to find out, and takes a closer look at the dynamic between the Eagles' dynamic pass-catching duo. 00:00 “I ain't part of the story…” 02:38 How DeVonta Smith is handling his own slow start to the season 06:36 Can two “alpha males” co-exist? 11:37 A.J.

How can a team so successful continue to be the source of so many questions? This remains the state of the Eagles. They're 4-0, and have gone 20-1 over the last 365 days. But in each game the Eagles have played this season, they've shown some concerning flaws. Following the team's 31-25 win in Tampa, The Philadelphia Inquirer's Jeff McLane and David Murphy try to make sense of what they've seen, and do some reading between the lines about A.J. Brown's latest cryptic comments. 00:00 4-0 but we still don't know: what are the Eagles? 04:54 Tale of the tape on offense 10:38 Jeff's postgame interaction with A.J.

Nick Sirianni hasn't lost much in his four-plus seasons as Eagles head coach, but there's one team that has his number: Tampa Bay. He's 1-4 all-time against the Buccaneers. The Eagles' two most recent defeats to the Bucs, road games in the Wild Card round of the 2023-24 playoffs and Week 4 of the 2024 regular season, were so embarrassing they threatened Sirianni's job security. But there's far more to the Eagles' struggles in Tampa than heat. Sirianni's counterpart, Bucs head coach Todd Bowles, has proven a pesky, painful thorn in the Eagles' side. As the Eagles travel to Raymond James Stadium for the third time in two years, The Philadelphia Inquirer's Jeff McLane examines how Bowles' blitzes have posed problems for the Eagles, and what Sirianni, quarterback Jalen Hurts, and the rest of the offense can do to counter them in Sunday's battle of unbeatens. 00:00 Welcome to Tampa: nightmare city 02:35 Why Todd Bowles has been so good vs. the Eagles 12:19 How Nick Sirianni, Kevin Patullo, and Jalen Hurts can hack Bowles' blitzes unCovering the Birds is a production of The Philadelphia Inquirer and KYW Newsradio Original Podcasts.

The Eagles' 3-0 start to the 2025 regular season has been full of imperfections, but the NFL is a bottom line business, and the defending Super Bowl champs have shown a remarkable knack for adapting to whatever circumstances are needed to win. Their latest victory, an epic 33-26 comeback over the LA Rams, featured a second half for the ages, capped by defensive lineman Jordan Davis blocking a would-be game-winning field goal and racing it back for a walk-off touchdown. Are the adjustments the Eagles made in erasing a 19-point deficit sustainable, or will they prove to be a flash in the pan?

Jalen Hurts might not be the fastest. He might not be the most agile or smooth either. In spite of all that, Hurts has still established himself as one of the most dangerous running quarterbacks of all-time, and he's done it by relying on a signature move. From his days playing football in the neighborhood just outside Houston to his ascent to Philadelphia Eagles' star, Hurts has turned the “Dead Leg” into a serious weapon. The Philadelphia Inquirer's Jeff McLane talks to the Super Bowl MVP about the origins, evolution, and effectiveness of his maneuver, while also exploring ways the Eagles could expand Hurts' role even more in the ground game. 00:00 Meet the ‘Dead Leg' 03:21 The origins of a signature move 10:58 How Nick Sirianni and Nick Patullo can expand Hurts' impact on the ground game unCovering the Birds is a production of The Philadelphia Inquirer and KYW Newsradio Original Podcasts.

The Eagles' 20-17 win over the Kansas City Chiefs was a good win. Pretty? Not so much, at least on the offensive side of the ball. The passing attack didn't really establish a deep threat (again). There wasn't much rhythm to the play calling. But when you go on the road and defeat an opponent hungry and motivated to avenge an embarrassing loss in the Super Bowl just seven months earlier, should style points matter? The Philadelphia Inquirer's Jeff McLane and Mike Sielski debate this question, and explain why, for as much as the offense has looked disjointed through two games, Eagles fans should have plenty of confidence in the club's defense. 00:00 “Like a home-cooked meal, but the steak was tough” 01:07 Sorting through some of the warning signs on offense 14:30 The most encouraging signs from Vic Fangio's defense after two games 16:14 Have the Eagles' found their new safety in Andrew Mukuba? 21:07 Enjoy the Tush Push (while it lasts…) unCovering the Birds is a production of The Philadelphia Inquirer and KYW Newsradio Original Podcasts.

PREVIEW 5: Economic Indicators Show Positive Trends John Batchelor converses with Gene Marks, a columnist for the Guardian and Philadelphia Inquirer, about the economy. He reports strong demand across various regions, noting that demand picked up after the recession. According to ADP data, annual raises average 4.5% for employees staying in their jobs and 7% for those changing jobs, outpacing the 2.5-3% inflation rate. The booming stock market contributes to people feeling wealthier, benefiting the contracting and construction industries.

What should we make of offensive coordinator Kevin Patullo's debut? It's an obvious question, one that calls back directly to one of the most significant subplots of a season in which the Philadelphia Eagles are bidding for a second straight title. The answer, however, is less clear. Were there positives to pull from the offense's performance in the Eagles' opening night, 24-20 win over the Dallas Cowboys? Absolutely. But the group struggled as well, particularly in the second half. The Philadelphia Inquirer's Jeff McLane analyzes the state of the Eagles' offense after one game, and looks ahead to key adjustments Patullo needs to make with week two's Super Bowl rematch against the Kansas City Chiefs looming. 00:00 What should we make of Kevin Patullo's debut as offensive coordinator? 12:33 Patullo's close relationship with head coach Nick Sirianni, and why it could prove a double-edged sword 18:09 Get A.J.

Devin Jackson of the Philadelphia Inquirer makes his Daily Ticket debut with Sean Brace to talk all things NFL and College Football.

The Eagles' opener was a lot of things - ugly, bad, and, ultimately in terms of the outcome, good. Jalen Hurts? Nice! Jalen Carter? Yikes. Adoree' Jackson? Is it already time to move on? It's early, just one game. The Philadelphia Inquirer's Jeff McLane isn't ready to make any blanket statements or knee jerk reactions, but he does have some first impressions from the Eagles' 2025 debut. Inquirer Eagles beat reporter Olivia Reiner joins the podcast to recap the 24-20 victory over the Cowboys. 00:00 What was Jalen Carter thinking? What are Jeffrey Lurie and Howie Roseman thinking? 05:47 Why Jeff was all in on Jalen Hurts' performance 07:57 Olivia looks at A.J. Brown, DeVonta Smith, Saquon Barkley, and the rest of the offense 11:38 Already time to move on from Adoree' Jackson? 15:09 It wasn't all bad on defense… 17:04 Final thoughts on Carter, and how the spitting incident reflects on unCovering the Birds is a production of The Philadelphia Inquirer and KYW Newsradio Original Podcasts.

(00:00-13:33) Olivia Reiner of the Philadelphia Inquirer joins the show. (13:33-23:43) Let’s put it on the record, what happens to this Eagles team this season? (23:43-31:39) Final thoughts from Amy on today’s game. (31:39-) Going through some fun prop bets and Ray and Sean’s final predictions.

It was a long preseason and, quite frankly, a pretty dull one, too. In other words, for a team like the Philadelphia Eagles, which kept its core intact and is looking to accomplish the exact same thing this year as last year, it was perfect. But don't let the lack of drama or juicy position battles fool you. The reigning Super Bowl champions still have some big questions to answer once they start playing for keeps Thursday at Lincoln Financial Field against the Dallas Cowboys. Will Saquon Barkley, recently voted the no. 1 player in the NFL, be able to dodge the presumptive defensive target on his back? Is the secondary deep enough to withstand the offseason departures of key veterans? The Philadelphia Inquirer's Jeff McLane tackles these issues and more as he sets the table for the 2025 regular season. 00:00 Time to get down to regular season business 02:45 Forget the yards - what type of season do the Eagles need Saquon Barkley to have? 08:59 Tyler Steen won a starting job. Is he ready? 17:40 True of false: we should be worried about the secondary 24:00 On edge about...EDGE unCovering the Birds is a production of The Philadelphia Inquirer and KYW Newsradio Original Podcasts.

The offense hasn't looked great, and the defense is still searching for answers at certain positions. But Jalen Hurts' vibes? They're all good, and noticeably different from last season. What's the reason for the change?

When you push all of your chips to the center of the table, in sports it means you believe you are one of the elite teams capable of winning the ultimate prize. Based on the recent trading deadline acquisitions of the Philadelphia Phillies, one could certainly surmise this. Jhoan Duran and Harrison Bader are two high-leverage acquisitions the Phillies hope will help fortify their chances of winning the World Series.Meanwhile, the Philadelphia Eagles are aiming to solidify their status as the best team in football and maintain their championship-caliber identity and mindset as they pursue another Super Bowl title heading into 2025. Can Jalen Hurts and Saquon Barkley replicate the success they had a year ago as they defend their title? These are all burning questions of great intrigue. For some answers, I turned to Devin Jackson, the Nighttime Sports Editor for the Philadelphia Inquirer. He joined me this week to provide his perspective on everything related to Philadelphia sports.

It was one of the most infamous spectacles in Philadelphia sports history: Terrell Owens working out in his driveway, hours after getting kicked out of training camp. The backdrop was a months-long contract dispute. Owens, the electric wide receiver who finally helped the Eagles get to their lone Super Bowl of the Andy Reid - Donovan McNabb era, felt that he deserved more money than he signed for a year earlier. The Eagles' front office, led by team president Joe Banner, thought differently. Ahead of the 20th anniversary of the August 10th, 2005 incident, The Philadelphia Inquirer's Jeff McLane looks back on the behind-the-scenes details - and absurdities - of the standoff, with help from former offensive coordinator Brad Childress and fellow Eagles beat reporter Bob Brookover, who, like Jeff, was in T.O.'s driveway when the ordeal happened. Plus, in this week's “Extra Point” segment, Jeff shares what he's been hearing about quarterback Tanner McKee, and other players who left impressions - good and bad - from the Eagles' 34-27 preseason-opening win over the Cincinnati Bengals. 00:00 Tales from T.O.'s driveway 26:35 Eye-openers and disappointments from Eagles preseason win over Bengals unCovering the Birds is a production of The Philadelphia Inquirer and KYW Newsradio Original Podcasts.

Merriam-Webster's Word of the Day for August 7, 2025 is: adjudicate • uh-JOO-dih-kayt • verb To adjudicate a dispute between two parties is to make an official decision about which party is right; to adjudicate a case or claim is to settle it judicially. Adjudicate is also used to mean “to act as judge.” // The case will be adjudicated in the state courts. // The property title cannot be transferred until a case concerning the affected rights of way is adjudicated. See the entry > Examples: “… [Pete] Rose's candidacy won't be adjudicated on the writers' ballot. According to the Hall's voting rules, players who are retired for more than 15 years are considered not by 400-plus writers but rather a smaller ‘era committee,' comprised of a mixture of former players, executives, and media members.” — Scott Lauber, The Philadelphia Inquirer, 14 May 2025 Did you know? Adjudicate, which is usually used to mean “to make an official decision about who is right in a dispute,” is one of several terms that give testimony to the influence of jus, the Latin word for “law,” on our legal language. Others include judgment, judicial, prejudice, jury, justice, injury, and perjury. What's the verdict? Latin “law” words frequently preside in English-speaking courtrooms.

Training for the reigning Super Bowl champs is underway this week, which means Sheil and EJ Smith of The Philadelphia Inquirer have a few takeaways to discuss from it. What has been the biggest surprise so far at camp (03:28)? Eagles 2022 first-round pick Jordan Davis has arrived at camp looking significantly slimmer. Will this help him ultimately see more time on the field (11:21)? Find out why EJ's mentions blew up after discussing one player's performance during drills (20:28).
