Cringeworthy: Philadelphia City Council nerds name Joel Embiid “Most Valuable Philadelphian”

When you think about who has the pulse of the city at their finger tips, the last people that should ever come to mind would be the Philadelphia City Council. That being said, these nerds decided to take time out of their day today to officially name Joel Embiid the “Most Valuable Philadelphian”.

Joel Embiid named Most Valuable Philadelphian (lol)

Philly City Council just passed a resolution that names Joel Embiid our MVP – "Most Valuable Philadelphian"

Literally Nobody Asked For This.

Politicians are the worst people on planet earth, even more so in the city of Philadelphia. Everything they touch turns to absolute shit. The fact that these out-of-touch nerds thought this would be a good idea when the majority of actual Philadelphia 76ers are minutes away from jumping off the Ben Franklin Bridge after yet another second round exit in the NBA Playoffs should be a criminal offense.

Well, maybe it is a criminal offense but it’s not like that would stop the Philadelphia City Council. Violent crime is at an all-time high. Kids are getting shot in broad daylight. Kensington is an absolute war zone, and homeless people are pilling up from south to north Broad Street. The city is in shambles, so let’s give out cringeworthy awards?

Keep up the great work idiots.

Let’s just be total corn balls and name Joel Embiid the “Most Valuable Philadelphian” to get some brownie points since the entire city of Philadelphia hates you. That makes total sense.

Can anyone actually do something to help this city?

I guarantee Joel Embiid doesn’t like this award. Nothing he says about it (if he even acknowledges it) will convince me otherwise. Politicians shouldn’t be any where near Philadelphia sports. Period. They are the most cringeworthy people in the world and this is just another prime example as to why.
