There was a time when I was engulfed in all Philadelphia sports. Had you come to me, I could have a conversation on any of the four major sports in this city. In the early 2000s I could have told you every line on the Flyers and the numbers on the back of each players [...]

It’s a pretty slow sports day and it doesn’t help that there are hardly any quality NBA games on schedule, but whatever, we will make due with what we’ve been given. The Denver Nuggets are facing off with the San Antonio Spurs as I type this, with the Nuggets leading at halftime, 45-41. A comment [...]

This has to be one of the most violent scenes I have ever witnessed that did not result in a serious injury. I’m no professional at snowboarding, this much I know, but I remember it hurting just falling on my ass, let alone my face smashing into a brick of ice. I’m sure Shaun White’s [...]

According to the Associated Press, Charlie Manuel said in an interview the other day that he wishes that his Philadelphia Phillies still had Cliff Lee. Manuel’s thoughts echo what the entire Phillies fan base is thinking. Halladay is the best pitcher in baseball right now. Lee is a tad behind him. Of course it would’ve [...]

As the second week of the Australian Open continues, Roger Federer has looked basically unstoppable after his first round faulter. He looks to make it to yet another major final, and like we have seen 3 times before, take home the hardware downunder. A feat that has only been accomplished by one other player. The [...]

How many times have we heard this? “Is Brett Favre going to retire?” – Get used to hearing this quote a lot over the next couple of months, because as we’ve seen before, do not rule out a Brett Favre return until at least one regular season game has been played. Oddly enough, as I [...]
