The state of sports in Philadelphia is dismal, but it may be brighter for the Philadelphia 76ers than the Philadelphia Eagles.

I have had many intense debates over this exact subject since the Philadelphia Eagles fired Chip Kelly before last weeks’ game against the New York Giants. I truly believe that the Philadelphia 76ers are in a better position for their future than the Philadelphia Eagles for numerous reasons that I will discuss in the upcoming slides.

Before I get started I would like to set the record straight. I am keeping this piece as unbiased as possible. Many will say I am biased or I am being a “homer”, but the truth is that I am also an Eagles fan. Yes, the Sixers are my passion, but I also love the Eagles. The following slides will be weighing different aspects of each organization against each other and awarding an advantage to one team, leading up to a conclusion with a final tally. If you are reading this and feel differently, visit the comment section, as this could be a great debate.

Without further ado, lets get started.
