Welcome! Emotions can be powerful motivators that push us to reach our goals or overcome adversity. The desire to never feel a certain way can be very impactful. But emotions can be overwhelming as well. And cloud our judgment. We need to be reasoned over reactive more times than not. We want to acknowledge our emotions while being in control. Not be controlled by our emotions.  Those who can remain rational in trying times are the ones that will more likely than not making it out to a better moment. Those who can remain focused on the main objective when all seems lost or in the midst of adversity. No person wants bad things to happen, wants challenges that they need to overcome, or problems in need of a solution. But it is how we respond.  FEATURED EPISODE:

    Welcome! Experience new episode of the Capitalist Reality Check, discussing affordability, some obvious changes, and the dire situation for us Philly fans. FEATURED EPISODE:

    Welcome! Not a great time to a fan of Philly sports teams right now. The Phillies were in and out of the MLB playoffs. The Eagles are struggling and players are starting to show their age. The Flyers have yet to win a game with their only points coming from making to overtime only to lose. There is not much hope except for the Sixers with the arrival of Lebron James and Jaylen Brown.  But, we should always be hopeful and not dwell in the moment. There is still time for our teams to right the ship and set a new direction. Just because there is early adversity does not mean that all is lost. There is still a chance for the Eagles. For the Flyers. And the Phillies have a good foundation to build on with the right approach. We need to be hopeful and forward thinking. Otherwise, we will just dwell in the emotions of the moment. 

 

      Welcome! A tough week for teams with young future star quarterbacks. While I can understand the sentiment around Caleb Williams, I think we have to given him a benefit of the doubt a bit. Pain tolerance is one thing and maybe the frustration with potentially missing time and what that may entail. The debate over preseason play for starters will probably heat up, but this unfortunate situation is also a case for being cautious. So, as long  as salaries continue to escalate, teams will protect the assets from injury in a meaningless game. FEATURED EPISODE:
