Asshole of the Week

Asshole of the Week

This week we salute the rampant stupidity of 18 year old Donta Cradock and 20 year old Ivan Rodriguez, two young men who obviously got their guidebooks on how to be an asshole at an early age.

  • Despite Mayor John Street's big show to end homelessness, homelessness in Philadelphia appears to be on the rise. In fact, both studies indicate that homelessness is at a ten year high, and the number of homeless living in Center City nearly doubled since last year.
