Whoever thought #flamencodancing would be a trending topic in the Philly sports landscape on a Wednesday morning in May? Then again, we haven’t had a character like Andrew Bynum in town since, well, never. Kid makes Allen Iverson look like a gym rat.

It’s not how you start; it’s how you finish. Cliched? For sure. Reality in this mini-season of the NHL? Absolutely. Luckily for the Flyers, Saturday’s 3-1 loss to the rival Penguins was nothing more than the first game of the year. Would they rather come out with a win? Yes. Is this in reality a [...]
Eli Manning or Donovan McNabb. For Audubon, NJ, native and Ravens QB Joe Flacco, the time has come to decide who he’ll be compared to by the end of his career. Will it be McNabb, who got to five NFC Championship games, losing four of them? Or, will it be Manning who is inconsistent but [...]

Andre Iguodala, the guy the Sixers shipped to Denver during the Olympics, captured the Gold with LeBron, Durant, Kobe and the rest of USA Basketball on Sunday. He promptly got some love from Philly and Denver. S/o to @mindofai9...
Dwight Howard a Sixer? Never wanted it to happen, and lucky it was never even close to happening. The man is a whining version of LeBron James and his “The Decision” days. Howard wanted out of Orlando and bitched un...
