The Pi Brew
We’re back with an all new Brew. The Roots Picnic was held this weekend and saw a couple legendary groups reunite and one perhaps the last time. Nick Nurse met with the Philly media. The Eagles came close to make a brutal trade last year. The Tribal Chief received a new belt. We have a lot to get to as always, so lets do this. It’s Brew time!
If you’re not listening to Fox Sports the Gambler, shame on you!!
After the success we had with viewing parties… I needed to get the crew involved more. We will be rolling out new shows this summer and when September comes, @foxphlgambler will be your go to station for the BEST Philly sports conversation. #RiseUp pic.twitter.com/LT4VAYey5L
