Soul Tryouts Are This Saturday!

Philly.com - The Soul will hold an open tryout for players on Saturday at the NovaCare Complex in South Philadelphia. Registration begins at 7:30 a.m., with warmups at 9, and the tryout starting at 9:15. Registration on the day of the event is $80 cash or cashier's check. Pre-registration is $60 at www.philadelphiasoul.com. Participants are asked to bring appropriate workout gear and shoes. Testing will take place on field turf, so metal cleats or spikes are not permitted. A trainer will be on hand for emergencies only - not for player taping. Soul co-majority owner Ron Jaworski and co-owners Pete Ciarrocchi and Cosmo Denicola will attend.

Hope to see everyone there! I'll be the one at home relaxing while making sure I don't give Ron Jaworski $80 of my money. Although it should be noted that ya boy has got an arm like Papa John.

The Riot Punch Will Flow: "Always Sunny" Bar Coming to Philly

Looks like It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia is going to come to real life.  Creator Rob McElhenny (better known to you as Mac in the show) is rumored to have purchased a drinking establishment in Olde City.

Obviously this has nothing to do with sports, but alcohol and good times are usually tied right along with it.  Mix in the fact the show is insanely popular (especially in this city), and this immediatley became worthy of alerting the public.  Which really means we read it on someone else's blog  and thought it would be nice to share with you fools. 

Unfortunately the bar will not be called Paddy's Pub, but instead will be known as Mac's Old Towne Tavern.  No word on when it may open, but I'm sure it will be widely publicized.  The bar is going to be a huge draw and bring in a ton of people, cash, and terrible drunk reenactments from the show.

This is probably where I should add in some Always Sunny references, regardless of how tired they may be.  Here we go: Greenman. Nightman. Flipadelphia. Dumpster baby. The D.E.N.N.I.S. system.  Cricket. Karate...and friendship...for everyone. You know the rest.
