The Eagles defense has been the steadying element of this turbulent season. On Sunday afternoon, in the Meadowlands against the Jets, the offense followed up its horrid display on the same field 2 weeks earlier against the Giants, with its second winning performance of the year. That performance was made a winner by another strong […]

Ray Didinger is my go to guy for Eagles analysis. I have been wrong in 3 of the 4 weeks of this season. I expect the Birds to get it right this week. The Jets are not very good. I think the Eagles win easily, but more importantly, Ray thinks they […]

Jesse Boulerice scored a 25 game suspension for this ridiculous cross check to Ryan Kessler’s head. The team was way up in the game, why do this? This spoiled what should otherwise have been a superb night for the revamp Flyers.

As the 76ers season approaches, I am wondering if they win 41 games this year.  They did not make big splashy moves in the off season, but really they did that last season when they traded AI and let CWebb walk.  I believe that both moves had to be made.  Andre Iguodala became the […]

Last night in Denver, the Colorado Rockies completed the first step to the World Series. They defeated the Phils 2-1, in a pitchers duel ironically, and completed the NLDS sweep. The Phillies ran into a buzz saw that won’t be beaten by the D’backs.
“To be within one strike of being eliminated (with a San Diego […]
