Filed Under Podcast | Leave a Comment
Philly SportsCast #82 – March 29, 2007With the Phillies only days away from starting their season, we at the SportsCast are quite hyped on what may happen this year – we rundown the lineup and we make predictions.
We also talk Takeo Spikes and Martin Biron and are more than satisfied with these acquisitions. We end the show with a little drinking questionnaire which can be found at any Pennsylvania State Store. Can Emoney and Davie pass the test? Let’s find out.
Finally, June 30th is an important date for us all. This will be the first Philly SportsCast all-hands get together. If you’re in the mood for a rockin’ good time and are interested in tickets to the game and the tailgate party drop us a line.

Comcast - Philly Fans Are a Cursed Tribe
Filed Under Article | Leave a Comment
Comcast.net sports editor, Lee Lee Russakoff, let’s us all know that this town is full of losers.
“In Philly’s 23-year span of incompetence, both Boston and Chicago have celebrated seven championships (Boston–three from the Celtics, three from the Pats and one from the Sawx; Chicago–one from da Bears, six from Michael Jordan).
Even if you take the success of Boston’s and Chicago’s other sports teams out of the equation, Philly still has the Bambino and the Billy Goat beat. Babe Ruth’s curse lasted 86 seasons; Billy Goat’s hex, just 62. But the curse afflicting Philadelphia has been breaking the hearts of the “Boo Birds” for 94 seasons (I’d say it’s safe to include this year’s Sixers and Flyers).
So why does the ineptitude of the Red Sox and Cubs out-headline Philly’s four-sport woefulness? Simple. No national voice has laid out the curse that afflicts Philadelphia fans. I will use this space as an opportunity to do so.
First, let me say that I have researched this for years in vain. Many Philly folks thought they found it with the “Curse of Billy Penn” (hogwash about building skyscrapers taller than Philly’s William Penn statue that stands atop City Hall). But the timing is way off.”

One Hell of a comeback.

SPRINGFIELD, Mass. (AP) — Anthony Atkinson scored 10 points in the final 39 seconds, including a layup at the buzzer, to give Barton College its first NCAA Division II title with a 77-75 victory over previously unbeaten and defending champion Winona State.
Barton ended Winona’s two-year, 57-game winning streak and survived a review of the final play by the officials.
This is something that must be seen by all sports fans.

Philly SportsCast #81 – March 22, 2007
This should be the time of the year when hope is what Philly fans live on. These days, it’s the Phillies that are the reason we wake up in the morning and with exactly zero losses under their belt (no wins either) the Phillies are surely the best this town has.
When these Sixers lose by 50 at home to the Huston Rockets – enough is enough. How come there is not more of an outrage going on in this town as a result of this watershed loss? Let’s not forget the Flyers and that terribly embarrassing loss to the Rangers on last Wednesday. Awful. Just awful.
Finally, June 30th is an important date for us all. This will be the first Philly SportsCast all-hands get together. If you’re in the mood for a rockin’ good time and are interested in tickets to the game and the tailgate party drop us a line.

Philly SportsCast #80 – March 14, 2007
It’s been a hell of a couple of weeks here in the southeastern part of the great Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. First, we want to pay our respects to Mr. John Vukovich – a true Phillie at heart. R.I.P.
Every other team in this town is making waves, and we discuss exactly that in this SportsCast.
Remember June 30th is an important date for us all. This will be the first Philly SportsCast all-hands get together. If you’re in the mood for a rockin’ good time and are interested in tickets to the game and the tailgate party drop us a line.
