  • Destination Philadelphia

    —Swing and a Miss

    Number of comments: 0
    Once upon a time, not long ago, baseball players -- especially pitchers -- openly and adamantly avoided coming to Philadelphia at all costs. Not any more.

    Word is Roy Halladay has listed Philadelphia as one destination he'd definitely accept should the occasion arise.

    Winning does that.[...]

    The candidates for baseball's 2010 class of the Hall of Fame were announced the other day and voters are going to have some tough decisions to make.

    Among first time candidates, Roberto Alomar, Edgar Martinez and Barry Larkin present the most difficult choices. Among holdovers Lee Smith will get' [...]

    Tasty. I was watching the game thinking they were going to let another one slip away, but they didn't. And while it's WAAAAY to early to be following this, they're in as the wildcard if the season ended today.

  • Eagles Rally To Beat Chicago

    —Philly SportsCast

    Number of comments: 6
    The Eagles finally won a close game – coming from behind to defeat the Bears 24-20. Donovan McNabb and the Eagles, who blew an early 10-point lead and were outplayed much of the game, took apart the Bears with an 11-play, 62-yard drive to take the lead for good as LeSean [...]

  • Report: DeRosa Headed To The Phillies

    —Philly SportsCast

    Number of comments: 5
    According this Fox Sports article, Mark DeRosa is heading to the Phillies… The Yankees are intrigued by DeRosa’s versatility and power, not to mention he’s homegrown (a New Jersey native). What the Bombers can’t offer, however, is a full-time job. The Phillies, on the other hand, are looking for an [...]

    Philly SportsCast #206 – November 19, 2009 It’s a sad state of affairs in the basement as we ponder all that is wrong with Philly sports. While Dave and Emoney continue to assure me that the Flyers are doing well and should be celebrated, I keep bringing up the Eagles, Sixers, [...]

  • Brand New Day

    —Sixers Journal

    "I'm going to find something good to make him mad Friday" quipped Lou Williams. The Sixers outlasted the B’Cats 86-84 at home last nite. So Elton Brand shows signs of life just a day after I was ready to give ‘em up for dead. His performance last nite was undeniable' [...]

  • I dunno what to think

    —Sixers Journal

    Seriously … I dunno what to think. "See no  evil, Hear no evil, Speak no evil". "If we do not hear, see, or speak of how bad the Sixers are, then they can’t be bad.” Right? But I was at the Utah debacle last Friday nite. It was disgusting. It" [...]

  • Fake Life

    —scrapple

    Number of comments: 3

    The reason I like football so much is that it's like life in so many ways, but it's not real. You go through life making friends, hanging out with family, and generally trying to accomplish something. The media gives us so much information about football players these days that we [...]

  • Eagles at Charges Post Mortem

    —scrapple

    And there goes the career of Brian Westbrook. After all is said and done, this will be the most memorable thing to come out of this game. This is very sad. Much more sad than whether the Eagles won or lost this game.

    36 is hands down the best [...]

    They are who we thought they were!

    This is a good, not great team. Obviously, great teams don't lose to OAK nor do they lose division games at home. Good teams win more than they lose and that's what they've done going 5 and 3. I guess we all [...]

  • Sixers find a new way to loose

    —Sixers Journal

    Number of comments: 0
    I could just not cipher how they did it … Lose to a smaller team by getting out rebounded on your defensive boards. They surrendered 21 offensive boards to the pistons (Sixers had 14), and a total of 51 rebounds (Sixers had 39). Don’t give me that crap about how [...]

    —Swing and a Miss

    Number of comments: 3
    The loss to the Yankees wasn't nearly as devastating as it could have been coming a year after their unexpected triumph in the 2008 Series and given the number of holes the Phils had on this year's squad.

    Still, they might have won had Charlie Manuel not made of [...]

    For some reason, the Eagles always end up highly ranked by their stats. The really interesting thing currently though is that they're #2 because their D is #1 in DVOA, while the offense is only 12th. Gotta love those turnovers.' [...]

    Reasons why Dallas will win:
    Eagles are awful against TEs and Witten is a top 3 TE.
    DAL can get great pressure from DEs.
    Romo is on a roll.
    PHI is getting a lot of points of turnovers - is this sustainable?
    DAL has very good running game.

    Reasons [...]

    The Knicks game last nite on Hallows eve was scary. The table was setup nicely for the 76ers. It was the Knicks. The shot a  minute, no defense playing dredge of the division. The Knicks lost a double overtime the nite before in Charlotte.   Treat: The Sixers came out [...]
