Philly SportsCast #107 - October 25, 2007
While the loss to the Bears was as significant as it gets and may have marked the start of a rebuilding time for the Philadelphia Eagles, there is another pressing matter to discuss - the retirement of safety Brian Dawkins.
I try to bring it up - it just seems Dave and Emoney do not want to hear any of it. If its over for Weapon X, please remember this - he’ll be sorely missed. How much? Have a look again at that miraculous Bears drive last Sunday.
We also take an early look at the Flyers and get the scoop from an irate Emoney on his picks for week eight in the NFL - as well as how the hell a former “Mr. Redskin” can’t get into see a Neshaminy football game.

Philly SportsCast #106 - October 18, 2007
The kids in the basement are a little torn. While we are super jazzed that the Eagles won, there are pains on the horizon. Does this team have what it takes to win even eight games? We want to know what kind of team we have here. So I’ll ask, what kind of team do we have here?
The Flyers are really playing well with the latest back-to-back shutouts - we ask Dave, “When can we get excited about this team?”
We are Philadelphia sports fans - a tortured bunch.

Philly SportsCast #105 - October 10, 2007
With all the hoopla surrounding the final, hapless bow of the 2007 Philadelphia Phillies, we discuss just how lame this team was in the playoffs, just how lame the Eagles have been playing and just how terrific Danny Briere looks as a Philadelphia Flyer.
See? It ain’t all bad.

if you need to relive the last six months, and are eager to pin blame, or you just want to rush towards the future, read the following, as there is a lot to digest today if you’re interested…
In the Star-Ledger, the always-wise Dan Graziano considers how Omar Minaya can best rebuild the pitching staff.
The Observer continues it’s strong run of Mets coverage, with a letter to Fred Wilpon by Howard Megdal, a look at the future of Willie Randolph by John Koblin, and a thank you to the team’s fans by Josh Benson.
In Newsday, Ken Davidoff simply states, “the Mets just weren’t good enough.”
Meanwhile, in the Daily News, John Harper is overwhelmed with the level blame that must be passed around Shea Stadium, though he fires mostly at Minaya.
Speaking of blame, in the New York Times,Michael S. Schmidt accuses the team of jinxing itself by building auxiliary seating boxes for the post-season, which they will never get a chance to use.
Also, in the New York Times, Jack Curry paints Willie Randolph as a depressed man, writing…
“Two Mets who witnessed Randolph’s five-minute speech said his eyes became moist and his voice weakened when he talked about what the team had destroyed by playing listlessly for two and a half weeks.”
Lastly, for a spin through opinion in the Mets blogosphere, check out the Global NY Mets Fan Blog, Sidd’s Speechless at HotFoot, Yes, Joe, It’s Toasted, Metsradamus, Faith and Fear, BMF, MiracleMets.net, which is back online following a short hiatus.
