The Livestream Of Philadelphia Fixing I-95 After It Collapsed Over The Weekend Is Going To Be The Can't-Miss Event Of The Summer
Handout. Getty Images.Now that the Stanley Cup and NBA Finals have wrapped up, we've reached that point in the year where there's hardly anything going on in the world of sports. There's professional lacrosse, but that's only on the weekends. There's regular season baseball, but how much can you actually care about every single game in a 162-game season?
We need something new. We need something exciting. Something which can take us through a journey of tremendous highs and tumultuous lows. That's the beauty of sports. It's captivating. And now, we have just the thing.

Oh hell yeah, brother.
In case you missed it over the weekend, the city of Philadelphia took another massive loss this year when I-95 literally collapsed in Northeast Philly. As if losing a Super Bowl, World Series and MLS Cup in one year wasn't enough, now even our highways are collapsing. And while it was certainly a tragedy, they always say that it is darkest before the dawn. A livestream of a major highway getting rebuilt seems like a pretty decent dawn to me. I mean traffic might be fucked for an eternity now, but just imagine the euphoria of witnessing this moment.
And anyone who knows anything about the conditions of the streets in Philadelphia knows this is going to take months at the very least. So you can start to get your futures bets in now. O/u on when it will get completed, how many times the union will go on strike and just stop fixing 95 for weeks, whether or not this shit will collapse again while they're in the middle of rebuilding it and restarting the entire process all over again.
It's going to be all anybody is talking about. You get back to work on a Monday morning after spending your weekend at the shore and battling 4-hour traffic on the way home, all anybody is going to be talking about around the water cooler is "oh my god, did youse see what that friggin' jerkoff did on the 95 livestream?"
And while the livestream is great and everything, I still think we can do a little more. Mainly by having this dude do some play-by-play and color commentary on the broadcast.
