Today we’re phlying phar away and in June, the Republic of Korea Air Force retired their last F-4 Phantoms after some 55 years service.

Sam Wise dusted off his passport and was there to bid farewell to this Cold War giant.

Lie down. Try not to cry. Cry a lot

In celebration of the sfoth QnA coming out here are my sfoth hcs

- icedagger likes to be friends with mortals. now hear me out uh like he plays with the kids!! but what’s sad is that uh. Icey can watch the mortals die if they recognize him like 50 years later. so yeah he wishes mortals could last a bit longer and cries to ghostwalker often

- occasionally there will be a giant windforce watching over playground. They’re used to it by now but if you’re visiting you’ll definitely be phreaked out but the locals will just tell you to calm the [blep] down and she won’t harm you unless you piss her off

- and surprisingly, when windforce is watching playground there isn’t that much thunder. yeah, it might be rainy but the locals like cloudy because cloudy is perfect let’s be real . So yeah that happens like 1-3x a year.. and she loves watching mortals piss each other off

- about the firebrand merging with the sun. idk where that came from but maybe the sun was dimming a lot in the inpherno and then he sacriphiced himself to merge with the sun to make it bright again

- sisyphus can merge with venomshank because they’re basically the same I think? But like if he pheels like it sisyphus can “merge” into him . and it gives him more eyes and his wings

- I think this was from when the mods weren’t here but uhh venomshank used to phly baby sword over crossroads. Like imagine seeing a green guy flying over you with a pill baby tucked into his arms

- I got this from ma mootie @/spiral-stereo, illumina is transfem and a narcisstic b) . Like remember how Illumina said her goal was “unity”?? Yeah pookie she wants to brainwash you and your mother to achieve that “unity”. Actually she wants to brainwash everyone to bring salvation or something

- darkheart either loves or hates politics. I have a gut pheelimg that they’re a capitalist actually .

- ghostwalker has a voice box

"Heheheheh, I love this. This is wonderful. Also capitalist Darkheart made me giggle"

Did you know?

Bebo Akapane is currently the first and only known UTAU to appear on a sports network so far. PHLY has this feature on their YouTube broadcasts where you can send something in the chat to appear on the network.

And so, this happened. That's the official character account for Bebo Akapane.

Imagine how many sports dads saw this while watching phly earlier today

Just curious, what was the skate like irl? Who didn’t even finish/ who did better than the rest??

Oh, I love you for this question. Buckle up.

First of all, I think there are a bunch of misconceptions about what 👹Tort's Rope👹 actually is and how it works. I had not a clue how it worked until today, and literally a week ago I thought Torts was tying ropes to hockey players and having them drag each other around the ice... Not how it works.

So, John Tortorella's bag skate. First, the rope is marked in large sections and tied between two goals, placed a little closer together than usual. The players are split up into 4 groups of approximately 4 players each and sent to the four corners of the rink. When Torts blows his whistle, one player from each group completes 4 laps of the goals and returns to their corner; the next player up is sent off on his own laps, and so on and so forth. Once each player in each group has completed his first four laps, the two goals are widened to a new length marked on the rope and the first player is back up. It's not a test of time or speed; it's a test of endurance.

(Those numbers are rough estimates based off of what I saw today — it could be three laps, and I don't know how many reps they did. The actual schedule says 3x8 Lap which is the technical term for 👹Tort's Rope👹 but I thought I saw four laps. Eight reps sounds about right, too. Whatever! The actual numbers don't matter too much.)

What matters is that the player completes his laps and returns to his origination point, no matter how tired he is. His teammates can give him a pat on the back, or some tips and pointers, or they can stare into the blank void of space and consider a new career path. Whatever it is, he has to finish. So "not finishing" isn't really an option unless someone throws up or passes out or dies. And no one did that — so technically, everyone finished.

Some people certainly had an easier time than others. I noticed that Michkov and Bonk struggled quite a bit, and Jamie didn't look too thrilled either.

Travis Ballinghoff.

Which kinda sucked, because I was really rooting for them. But holy shit, Michkov was struggling. Charlie O Connor actually said in the PHLY podcast today that he noticed Michkov kind of cut his final lap short at one point and that John Tortorella came over to him and was like yo. can't do that. And for the rest of the time he pulled through.

Egor Zamula kept getting yelled at. "Let's go, Z! Keep skating, Z!" He also kept getting lapped by Rasmus Ristolainen. Tyson Foerster had "kill me now" face (see Bonk above) but Foerster does tend to have a pretty expressive face. Sean Couturier kept getting help from TK, who skated right behind him for the most part and kept pushing him forward with his stick. He even admitted it.

It seemed to me that most of the guys from last year, the returning ones, were the ones that did the best. Farabee, Frost, Tippett, Hathaway, Poehling, Laughton — they all had a routine in between their laps that they used to help keep them going, whether it was motivatinal or physiological or psychological. Farabee and Hathaway skated up and down the rope, in the center of the lapping players. Tippett stretched on the boards. (He's flexible. 👀)

It was interesting to watch who was fast, though. Ronnie Attard looked like he was having the time of his fucking life, and he actually did very well! Carter Sotheran has resting happy face, but I can't imagine he was having any fun. Jett Luchanko was certainly winded, but pulled through with minimal painful expressions. (Erik Johnson went on the record to say Luchanko looked like he didn't even have to try.) Zayde Wisdom, Noah Cates and Cam York all paced themselves well. But everyone, no matter who it was, was slowing down by the second or third rep — very visibly. It looked awful.

And then — and then! — they had to do shuttles. This one was in groups of four — started at one end, raced to the other end, tight turn, back to the original spot. Then a group of four at the opposite end, who were waiting, would do the same, and the small groups would switch off. They must have done at least five reps. No one fared well on these. No one. They were all lagging by the second rep.

Anyway, to answer your question, it was loud, and it was cold, and hockey players are big. The tallest ones were like hovering a foot over me (looking at you, Matteo Mann, what the fuck are you so tall for??) and even Michkov at 5'11 looked fucking ginormous. And his group was right near me — him, Frost, Seeler, and Lycksell. Frost was tiring but I could see him grit his teeth and grind out his laps. I assume after the emotional pain of John Tortorella, Frosty can handle the physical pain too. After one of his laps was done he gave Michkov a lil side hug. It was really cute!

Travis Ballinghoff.

Off topic, but stick "taps" — that's bad nomenclature, right there. A stick "tap" at the Vorhees TC sounds like a car backfiring.

At the end of every group's torture, they settled down for a circle stretch. TK went around the first one talking to guys and grinning and laughing. He looked like a leader. The second one Joel was going around making every guy give him a little fistbump. Then the third one was actually led by Spencer Gill, who I thought had done reasonably well, especially for having only just been drafted. He held his own.

Thank you for the ask!

phly top disappointments of the first half of the flyers season

charlie: #1 sam ersson (bc he had high expectations), #2 morgan frost, #3 joel farabee kelly: #1 morgan frost, #2 owen tippett, #3 i actually don't know if i caught her third bill: #1 morgan frost, #2 joel farabee, #3 penalty kill

but basically yes. your girl, annie tumblr user antrea has the most fail faves (frosty, tippy, bee) in the history of the world and if you think your faves suck well too bad bc mine suck more.

frosty: did not freaking seize this opportunity to center and playmake for mich and force the org to seriously think about keeping him for the future. let's hope and pray second half morgan frost makes his annual appearance........

tippy: bill and charlie are cutting him more slack but i'm as disappointed as kelly that he's still just stayed stagnant instead of lighting it up like tk has done after signing a big contract

beezer: on pace for a TWENTY-EIGHT POINT season................ charlie made a point that he actually didn't like his reasoning for fighting dewar last night because he wishes bee still had the mentality like "hey i'm one of the team's top goalscorers so they need me on the ice for 5 min" instead of thinking his only value is a fourth line 'generating excitement' type of guy :(

i hate it hereeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
