NHL Should Have Punished Penguins, FSN Pittsburgh

The National Hockey League messed up, and if vulgarity weren’t frowned upon in journalism, I would not have used the word “messed.”
If the NHL cared about its credibility, not to mention if it wanted to gain a little public exposure that it desperately needs, the league would have come out quickly and harshly against the [...]

Just Call Me Captain Optimistic

I’m trying to be optimistic. It’s my New Year’s Resolution. I look around at the disaster zone that is Philadelphia sports and I say to myself, there HAS to be something positive that I can take from this mess. I MUST find something to put my energy into. So I’ve made a list of some [...]

Was Clarke Pushed or Did He Jump?

Was he burnt out or was he forced out? That is still the question just two days after Flyers general manager Bobby Clarke abruptly resigned after the team’s worst start in over fifteen years. Clarke has seen everything there is to see with the Flyers, the cup years when he was a player, the Lindros [...]

Thank you- Philadelphia

Just when I think my world as a Philadelphia fan can’t get any more dismal, some Philadelphia team shakes things up by placing themselves eleven games out of the division lead, blowing it in the playoffs, not making the playoffs, or spending more time arguing with a crazy wide receiver, than playing the actual game.

The Agony of Defeat- Again

How does one describe agony exactly?  As Philadelphia fans, we should have that description on the tip of our collective tongues.  But, alas, all good things must come to an end.  Was there any real good that came from this past Flyers season though?  Nothing that can fill up this article.  

I’m a Flyers fan- So I’m allowed to bash them.

I am allowed to bash the Flyers. I am allowed to bash the Flyers because I am a Flyers fan and that is what we are brought up to do. If the team wins 2-1, we bash them for not shutting out the other team. If they win a playoff series 4-1, we fume because [...]

The End of a Drought

Attention Philadelphia:
Your title crave is about to be soothed.  The championship drought is about to be ended.  The 23-year losing streak is about to be ended by one team.  Could it be the Phillies who last won the World Series in 1980 (the only one in their 122 year history)?  Or could it be the [...]

Back to the Fun Stuff

Now that The Revolution (that’s this site if you haven’t been paying attention) has launched, I can go back to doing what I enjoy most: ranting and raving. But before I get to that, some thoughts on being a Flyers fan.  You know those laboratory rats that constantly push the lever looking for a treat [...]
