Don’t look now, but the Phillies have won five of their last seven, matching their best stretch so far this season. A trip to Miami would seem like the perfect way to capitalize on this recent good fortune, yet it was the lowly Marlins who halted their momentum the last time. After taking the first…

Video: Watch Eagles CB Brandon Boykin Throw Down Sick Slam Dunks
May 20, 2013, 5:19 PM EDT
Brandon Boykin stands only 5-foot-10, but don’t let his size fool you. The Eagles’ second-year cornerback also happens to be a high-flying, slam-dunk artist as well, a talent that was on full-display for a group of Birds fans over the weekend. During the offseason, the Eagles typically go around to a few regional high schools…

For What It’s Worth: Jrue Holiday Seemed to Really Like Andrew Bynum
May 20, 2013, 3:00 PM EDT
You can say it’s just Jrue being nice in case the Sixers decide to bring back the tall kid with the funny hair, but there’s some detail in these comments. And it’s surprising. As we all know, Andrew Bynum did not play a single second of basketball in a Sixers uniform. But according to the…

Who Is Julsan Kamara? What We Know of the German Prospect the Phillies Signed
May 20, 2013, 2:08 PM EDT
About a week ago some of our favorite Phillies blogs had caught wind of a seemingly minor although very intriguing signing by the organization in Julsan Kamara. Details are still sparse however, as the front office hasn’t made too big a deal over the 17-year-old prospect from Germany. The report originally surfaced from the European…

Quotable: Mike Vick Says Chip Kelly Taught Him How to Hold a Football
May 20, 2013, 1:16 PM EDT
“Chip told me how to run with the football the other day,” Vick said. “He taught me how to run with the football and how to carry the football, and I think it’s something that you just have to work on.” [...] “The other day, I broke out in the pocket, and the first thing…

The thing about this video that makes it so impressive is that it covers a tremendous number of the quirks surrounding this Philadelphia Eagles football team: the nostalgia for the glory days of Brian Dawkins, the Shady bus incident, the Nnamdi car eating, Chip Kelly’s strange practice patterns/music, Jason Kelce’s grooming habits, pools that haven’t…

Let me preface this by admitting up front that I liked the addition of Michael Young to the Phillies during this offseason. The club had a hole at third base that the front office was able to fill temporarily with a seven-time All Star for the low-price of two minor-league relievers, while the Rangers are…

Ten Biggest Questions for the Sixers Off-Season: #4. What the Hell Do We Do with Evan Turner?
May 20, 2013, 9:23 AM EDT
After enduring three years of absolutely vexing basketball from their former #2 overall pick, the Philadelphia 76ers are about to reach decision time with Evan Turner. The Extraterrestrial’s rookie contract is in its final year next season, meaning that unless they ink him to an extension at some point before November, Turner will become a…

Cliff Lee Makes Awful Base-running Blunder But Wears Awesome T-Shirt So Whatever
May 19, 2013, 6:21 PM EDT
Cliff Lee’s base-running blunder in the bottom of the ninth inning on Sunday could have cost the Phillies the game. It didn’t. And Erik Kratz and Freddy Galvis got Lee off the hook by bashing back-to-back home runs off of Aroldis Champman to propel the Phils to a series victory. [watch video of Lee’s base-running…

WHAT THE!?! Kratz and Galvis CRUSH Back to Back Jacks to Walk Off Winners
May 19, 2013, 4:57 PM EDT
Holy crap. That was one of the more improbable endings to a Phillies game we’ve ever seen. After Delmon Young worked a leadoff walk in the bottom of the ninth off of Aroldis Chapman, Charlie Manuel decided to use Cliff Lee as a pinch runner. That didn’t work out real well. Cliff Lee got picked…

Saturday was ugly down at Citizens Bank Park. Even the typically quiet-tweeting Jim Salisbury felt the need to point out what a savage pummeling the Phillies were receiving. But today is Sunday and a win in the rubber match eases the pain of yesterday. This has turned into a savage pummeling — Jim Salisbury (@JSalisburyCSN)…

Philadelphia Union scoring machine Jack McInerney found the back of the net yet again on Saturday at PPL Park in the team’s victory over the Chicago Fire. Jack Mac got the U on the board in just the third minute of play on a nice cross from Sebastien Le Toux which McInerney did a nifty…
