Watch The John Kincade Show LIVE on YouTube 2/20/2024

At work? At home? On the go? Not too worry! You can watch the John Kincade Show LIVE on YouTube.

It is Valentine's Day. Love is in the air. And even if things have not been ideal recently in the Philly Sports world, we wanted to talk about the things we love today in Philly sports. Specifically, our most beloved Philly Athletes. So for our Instagram, we asked all of the on-air staff which Philly athlete they love the most.

What was interesting is how many of them went for a Phillies player. There were 3 Chase Utleys, two Jimmy Rollins, along with a Roy Halladay, a Ryan Howard, and a Carlos Ruiz. Only 1 person picked a Sixers player, and two went the Eagles route. One Flyer got an honorable mention but was not the final pick. You can say it is because the 2008 Phillies won it all, but so did the Eagles in 2017. Only 1 player from that team made the list. And as one commenter on our Instagram immediately pointed out, nobody picked B-Dawk or Jason Kelce.

So what is it about that 2008 team that made us love them so much? Out of the 11 answers, 7 played for that team. Another joined the team two years later. And one of us named both of their pets after players on that 2008 team, J-Roll and Cat Burrell. It seems like at least among our staff, our heart is with that Phillies team still.

Find out who each host picked below. The full video from our Instagram can be found at the bottom of the page.

Be sure to comment under the Instagram reel who your most beloved Philly athlete of all time is. Did our hosts get it right? Should there be more Eagles on the list? Did the Sixers and Flyers not get enough love? Let us know what you think of our picks.
