Well. That was… Not exactly the way you’d want to win a game, but wins are wins. The Cubs blew leads of 6-2 and 7-6, but walked off the Phillies 8-7 in the 10th inning on Dansby Swanson’s bases-loaded hit. The Cubs have now won nine consecutive games and, at 16-9, are tied for first […]

Oh, hey, the 2026 NFL Draft is tonight! Here are some Philadelphia Eagles thoughts on my mind.
The Phillies finally showed some signs of life, but nevertheless they still couldn’t manage to finally break their losing streak, which has now extended to nine games. They erased a 6-2 deficit and tied it at 7-7 in the ninth, but ultimately, they couldn’t find a way to win in extras while Dansby Swanson walked […]
The Philadelphia Eagles are entering the 2026 NFL Draft with eight picks, all within the first six rounds. Here’s what I think they might do with them. 1 (No. 23) – Max Iheanachor, OT, Arizona State The Eagles trading up for an offensive tackle in the 2026 NFL Draft is a strong bet; they’ve been […]
Last night’s Game 3 for the Flyers was little short of an event. Between some interesting penalty calling , a whole lot of brawling, and a host of different faces stepping up in meaningful ways on the way to that victory, the return of playoff hockey to South Philadelphia was something to remember.
The night was downright overflowing with storylines, but as far as the game itself goes, some of the very best of the game, and the very worst, unfolded for the Flyers on opposite sides of the ...

Fans of the Philadelphia Flyers held their collective breath when goaltender Dan Vladar appeared shaken up in Wednesday night’s Game 3 victory over the Pittsburgh Penguins at Xfinity Mobile Arena.
Vladar did not take part in Thursday’s practice at the Flyers Training Center. However, Flyers head coach Rick Tocchet revealed after practice that while Vladar is hurting, he was simply given the day off for maintenance.
Exhale.
“It’s more of a maintenance day,” Tocchet told the media...
The Eagles have been linked to veteran edge rusher Jonathan Greenard since the early days of free agency, but nothing has officially transpired between Howie Roseman and the Minnesota Vikings’ front office. As teams prepare for the first round of the NFL Draft, a potential trade may have been leaked that sends Greenard to Philadelphia […]
Hall of Fame sportswriter Ray Didinger may be retired, but it does not mean he is retiring from poring over college film and talking to his numerous NFL sources to find out who can be sleepers in the 2026 NFL Draft. Last year, the prestigious Francis “Reds” Bagnell Award winner had on his yearly list: […]
The series isn’t over, and the Flyers still have one more win to get to the second round, but thus far Philadelphia has been perfect. They are shutting down one of the better offensive teams in 2025-26 while at times putting on a defensive clinic that hasn’t been seen in some time. Heading into the series, much was made of the fact how deep the Penguins were, with a dozen players scoring 13 or more goals. So even if the Flyers somehow stopped Sidney Crosby and Evgeni Malkin, they still had the...
Go get ‘em, Edward.
From steadily rising through the organization to Chip Kelly kicking him to the curb to nabbing two Super Bowl rings, it’s been a hell of a ride for Howie Roseman in Philadelphia. Joining the Eagles in 2000 as an intern, Roseman became general manager in 2010, holding that title for a few seasons before Kelly’s […]

After falling short of their postseason ambitions, the Philadelphia Eagles are slated to enter Round 1 of the 2026 NFL Draft with the No. 23 overall pick. Howie Roseman and the Eagles staff have eight total picks to worth with in this year’s draft, and they’ll use that haul to move up and back throughout […]
The Philadelphia Flyers have had to deal with three different kinds of games in the playoffs, and they dealt with each one.
Thursday notes… Cubs lineup: Phillies lineup: Edward Cabrera, RHP vs. Cristopher Sánchez, LHP Edward Cabrera has been as advertised so far this year. His power changeup results in a lot of strikeouts — 17 in 22.2 innings. It also has led to a fair number of walks, 11, which is too many. Cut down on […]

Prior to Thursday’s game against the Cubs, the Phillies announced that Taijuan Walker was released. Walker pitched Wednesday night’s game behind Kyle Backhus, allowing five runs, four of them earned, in only four innings. It was not all of his fault; Justin Crawford dropped a shallow flyball that eventually led to a run. But it […]
The Philadelphia Eagles are fresh off the start of their offseason program, and are taking a brief pause to build their roster through the 2026 NFL Draft. GM Howie Roseman and his staff will open the night with one first-round pick, at No. 23 overall. The draft starts at 8 PM ET, but the Eagles […]
The times, they are bad. The vibes, they are also bad. Pretty much everything associated with the Phillies right now is bad. Nothing is going right and the product on the field is approaching (if it hasn’t already reached) unwatchable. Change has been demanded by many that follow the team, but realistically, what can they […]
There were decisions to be made going into Game 3 last night for how the Penguins would respond to playing on the road, trailing 2-0 in their series with the Philadelphia Flyers. “There should be frustration,” Dan Muse said after Game 2. “We just lost two games at home. How are you going to respond? […]
The Cubs have found many different ways to win during their current eight-game winning streak. Blowouts (three straight games with 10+ runs). Extra-inning thrillers (over the Mets on Sunday). Winning despite leaving 17 on base (Tuesday). And Wednesday, a home run by a player who’s been struggling at the plate helped galvanize the offense. Michael […]
The Phillies are a mess right now. You know it. I know it. They know it. To paraphrase the great Yogi Berra, it’s getting late early. You cannot win a division or a pennant in April, but you can certainly lose one. And you can do that by doing things like winning two of your […]
