The Philadelphia Eagles are undefeated in games attended by Sixers big man Joel Embiid. On Sunday night, Embiid attended the Super Bowl with teammate Justin Anderson and after the Eagles' victory, FOX 29 Philadelphia caught up with city's beloved basketball star. To no one's surprise, Joel dropped a "Trust the Process", but he also mentioned that when it comes to championships in the city of Philadelphia, the Sixers are up next.

We'll see about that Joel.
The Eagles won their first Super Bowl title in franchise history on Sunday and the Phillies paraded down Broad Street in 2008. The Flyers (1975) and Sixers (1983) have each gone through long droughts for titles, so hopefully this Eagles championship begins a trend in the Philadelphia sports world.
