Ben Wilson vs Terry O’Reilly in a classic 2 round brawl.
Hockey like it used to be….

Flyers hopeful Steve Downie is trying to make the team. Last night he went overboard in his efforts to make an impression.  This hit is brutal and led to Dean McAmmond being taken off the ice on a stretcher.  He has a concussion but was able to move his limbs when examined at the hospital.

The Eagles were ill prepared in their opener in Green Bay, inexplicably came out flat on Monday Night Football, and began game 3 on Sunday looking up from an 0-2 hole at the Lions prowling the Linc.  How would they react with their premier defensive backs out, their primary scoring threat nursing a sore knee […]

You can make a long list of outstanding and/or greatly improved performances by Eagles players in Sunday’s win over the Lions, but in my opinion, you should start up front on both sides of the ball.
The offensive and defensive lines elevated their play tremendously. The O line was a force and owned the […]

With the finish line fast approaching and the Phillies still trailing the Padres and Mets, despite their recent wins in 8 of 9, how does Charlie Manuel turn over Sunday’s game to Kane Davis??
I tuned in first in the 6th with the Phils down 3-2. I learned that Hamels had left after 5 and had […]

The pressure is mounting.  Just how number 5 and the rest of the Birds react to this dismal start will save or sink the season.  0-3 = no playoffs. It is just that simple.  They are facing a Lions team that is feeling good about itself, but it is still the Detroit Lions.  They are […]

Speaking on 610 WIP this morning, Wednesday 9/19, former Eagle and current media type Gary Cobb, reported that sources within the Eagles organization have told him that the Eagles are planning for this to be Donovan McNabb’s last season with the team.  I agree with him.  This is likely the farewell performance for McNabb.

At the start of the season, after what now was obviously a wasted preseason, I made some assumptions about the Eagles offense.  I made assumptions because the 1st team O played so little in the preseason, that there was nothing left to do but make assumptions.
I assumed that the Birds have the ingredients for a […]
