Kelce Commercial Overkill, No No Soto: This Week In Philly Sports

PHILADELPHIA, PA —No Big Three. No worries. These Sixers subs have a lot of fight and spirit. And Jason Kelce is everywhere every time you turn on the television or radio.

These are some of the stories making sports news this past week:

Are You Getting Tired Of Jason Kelce Yet?

He's a Philadelphia Eagles legend. Retired All-Pro center Jason Kelce is everywhere these days. He's on cereal boxes. He's starring in Chunky Soup commercials near a fireplace. Don't forget Buffalo Wild Wings and Wawa commercials too. He's on ESPN's "Monday Night Football" show. He does a weekly podcast with his brother. And now he will be on late-night television talking sports and such. Amazingly, Kelce is so high profile and so liked by all. But when does enough become enough? Are we suffering yet from Kelce overkill?

Philadelphia Phillies Winter Stove May Simmer

It's the holiday shopping season. And why not grab the biggest and best present you can get? For the Philadelphia Phillies, that would be free-agent outfielder and superstar Juan Soto, who is entering his prime at the perfect time. Soto is seeking a contract with the bidding starting at $600 million. The Phillies are saying that their Winter Stove might be on a low simmer this holiday season. Soto may be too costly for a team bogged down by plenty of high salaries. But if you say you are World Series contenders, it's Soto or bust!

Sixers Subs Really Do Deserve Some Love

Go to a Philadelphia 76ers game these days and there's probably a good betting chance of not seeing the Big Three together. You can count on one hand how many times Joel Embiid, Paul George, and Tyrese Maxey have played in the same lineup. There hasn't been much of Kyle Lowry and Caleb Martin either. Even Andre Drummond is hurt. But that gives other players the chance to shine. And players like rookie Jared McCain, Guershon Yabusele, Kelly Oubre Jr., K.J. Martin, and Ricky Council IV are playing their little hearts out. Keep going after that participation trophy.

How High Can Philadelphia Eagles Soar?

You can't imagine that the Philadelphia Eagles will lose to the Carolina Panthers this Sunday? This team is rolling and rolling over teams that get in their way. They always start slow but finish strong on the strength of Quarterback Jalen Hurts, Running Back Saquon Barkley, and a defense led by Jalen Carter, a few rookies in the secondary, and two linebackers you hardly knew a year ago. So how high can these Birds soar? Let's get to the Super Bowl and win it this time!
