Trust The Process?



Philadelphia has come alive since the arrival and presence of a particular man.

That man is named Joel Embiid.

As a native of Philadelphia myself, I can assure you of two things. One, Philly is filled with crazy people. Two, we love our sports teams. Hard.

The Philadelphia 76ers are known for having a few rough years recently. As a season ticket holder for the Sixers, let me tell you personally, it hasn't been easy to watch.

Last year, the Sixers ended with their worst record in history at 18-64. This year, they've already surpassed their total wins from last season and they haven't even reached the halfway mark of the NBA season.

Embracing his nickname as "The Process", Embiid is not only being known for his dominance on the court and being the reason the Sixers have re-surged and come alive this year. It turns out he's a pretty funny guy, too.

From trolling Donald Trump to telling the world he wants to get in the NBA All-Star game because he wants a date with a famous celebrity, this man has everyone in the palm of his hands. And we're not complaining.

Injuries have held Embiid back in the past, keeping him out the entire 2015-2016 season and delaying his return this season. However, he's been determined to not let it stop him and come back stronger than ever. And he has.

According to ESPN, Embiid is averaging 20.2 points per game and 7.8 rebounds in his 25.4 minutes per game average.

Imagine what this man will do once he's fully healthy and playing the entire game. The limits are endless.

Philadelphia has a lot to look forward to. We all just have to Trust the Process.

Instagram's Newest Feature That You Can't Find Anywhere Else

Snapchat started the trend of story-telling, creating 24-hour snaps that you share to the world. Instagram now has this feature as well. Well, Instagram has changed the game again. This time, you can post multiple photos within a single feed post. As in, you swipe right and see multiple pictures all under one post. Sure, Twitter and Facebook have similar features where you can post multiple pictures at once, but not quite like this. Instagram, unlike Facebook, Twitter, and so on, is a photo-based social media platform. Before, only advertisers could do such a thing on Instagram, leaving the rest of us to pick only the best picture (or two at the most) to represent our big event, birthday or holiday to keep from spamming (and annoying) our follower’s feeds. To use the feature, you need to tap the ‘Select Multiple’ option first on the bottom of the photo or video you want to upload. From there, you can select the content you want to include; they’ll be numbered in the order th

The Aftermath Of A Historic Super Bowl

Mike Ehrmann/Getty Images It's not about how Super Bowls start. It's about how they finish. Super Bowl LI started off with what could arguably be the most boring few hours of football in Super Bowl history. The Atlanta Falcons seemed to have the game in the bag. Quarterback Matt Ryan seemed to be doing everything right, whereas his opponent Tom Brady could not prevent getting sacked or missing wide-open receivers down the field. The lifeless Patriots were down 28-3 going into halftime. Lady Gaga was the only thing that seemed to give the game life. And then the Patriots happened. Granted, the first touchdown of the night coming from Tom Brady only came at the end of the third quarter and even then, the game didn't feel competitive in the slightest bit. But once that first score came, it was like taking candy from a baby for the Patriots. They went on a tear, defensively stopping the Falcons and then offensively, with Brady leading the way.

Which Is Your Favorite?

Social media seems to be what everyone eats, sleeps, lives, and breathes nowadays. If you don't have at least a Facebook, it's almost as if you don't exist in the world. Twitter and Instagram have claimed their thrones, with Snapchat still up and coming; Not to mention Tumblr, LinkedIn, Youtube, Pinterest, and so on. With so many different social media platforms, it's almost impossible to choose which one is the "best." Personally, I love Twitter. I'd have to say it's my favorite social media outlet (with Instagram a close second). Why? Twitter gives me the ability to follow different accounts that cover a wide variety of topics that interest me. Hashtags allow me to follow topics without having some type of commitment to the topic, such as liking or following a page. It has an immediacy of breaking news and updates on developing stories almost faster than news outlets at times. Twitter is detailed. And who could forget the ease of follow
