Penn brought Fran McCaffery home, where he could be near his brother, Jack, who is recovering from a stroke.
The McCaffery boys used to go to the Palestra every weekend. Their dad, a police officer, snuck people in the back door. Now they have the keys: inquirer.com/college-sports/…

saw this in person with @DaveZeitlin. not sure why we were both in LA at the time, but it was the Fourth of July and I'm 99% sure @amobisays was playing center back and Gabe Farfan was at LB
From the vault:
According to Transfermarkt, the only time Philadelphia have defeated the LA Galaxy was back in 2012—featuring a lineup that included Michael Lahoud (@MikeLahoud), Freddy Adu (@FreddyAdu), the Farfan twins, Amobi Okugo (@amobisays), and Zach MacMath.
The Union won 2–1 with goals from Jack McInerney (a stunning finish) and a late winner by Michael Farfan.
On Wednesday night, Philadelphia faces a winless LA Galaxy side that’s coming off a 7–0 thrashing by the New York Red Bulls.

Great piece on my former Penn classmate who’s be a great choice as Penn’s next head coach.
Holmdel's Dave Klatsky left a lucrative Wall Street job to coach full-time, taking a huge pay cut to chase his dream.
Now he has NYU in the D-3 national title hunt, and the hoops world is noticing.

Was a lot of fun working with the great @Andrea_Kremer on this. She and the PR man she profiled in this issue of the @PennGazette are two of four Penn alums who have been recognized by the Pro Football Hall of Fame.

My latest cover story looks back on 10 years of a @Penn prize that’s helped launch the careers of many social entrepreneurs.

Andy was THE first @PhilaUnion writer, writing profiles on every original player for the club website before they ever played a game. No one better to navigate those early crazy days of the team with. He always loved talking about his 3 daughters, who I am crushed for. So awful.
Andy Jasner - great human being and one of the first Philadelphia Union writers. I remember road tripping with him and @DaveZeitlin to Harrisburg and NY and Boyds for some of those early days USOC and friendly games. One of the best people in Philly sports media. RIP
