Bill Simmons Projects Philadelphia Renaissance

Philadelphia sports might be heading for a major high. The Philadelphia 76ers are set to begin the preseason with its deepest roster in recent memory. Philadelphia Eagles are undefeated through the first month of play. Phillies could end a 10-year postseason drought with one more win. Union are in first place in the MLS’ Eastern Conference. Flyers have a 3% chance to make the playoffs.

The Sixers are going to be good this year. The team is in that second-tier contender. There might be a Philadelphia renaissance. The Sixers have the juiciest odds.

Bill Simmons projects Philadelphia becoming the new Boston. Boston won several sports championships in the mid-2000s and early-2010s. Los Angeles has been the city of the moment recently.

Philadelphia sports teams are on a good run. The last time they were on such a run was in 1980. They won the World Series, the Super Bowl and the Flyers won hockey titles. Now they are limping into the playoffs. They are still three months away from the football playoffs in Philadelphia. Bill Simmons projects a renaissance in the city.
