It’s been a long time since the prospects of this city’s four pro franchises looked so good. You might not know it by the level of public dissatisfaction surrounding them.
Here’s a suggestion: Savor the success.
Why not embrace hope? Sure, each team faces challenges, and that includes the Eagles.
So the Phillies don’t have a closer, the Flyers don’t have a goalie or centerman depth, and the Sixers don’t have a point guard who can shoot.
So what?
Appreciate the prosperity.
As we enter what appears to be a Golden Era of Philly sports, it just seems like many Philadelphians have, at this moment, selected measured misery over civic pride.
