Just a few weeks ago, Philly fans had
tonight's basketball contest with the Memphis Grizzlies highlighted as
a game to look forward to due to a certain scorer coming back to face the team he made his bones with for all of those years. Well, the Allen Iverson in Memphis experiment was even ...

We've wound up in a familiar place in
this football season, roughly halfway with an apparently middle-of-the-road
team and all sorts of obvious problems, yet somehow poised to make another miraculous run. Most people are not amused, and seem to prefer changes. For starters, there's the ...

After a pretty underwhelming preseason in which he
failed to capture a spot in the starting lineup,
Joe Mays finally could get another opportunity on Sunday night. With Akeem Jordan expected to be out for the second consecutive week, the Eagles are once again considering a shift in their ...

Before Brian Dawkins was rocking the #20, the
Eagles had Andre Waters patrolling the secondary. Waters was
a fixture of Buddy Ryan's Gang Green defense, a tough-as-nails safety who four times led the team in tackles, and received All-Pro honors in 1991. Waters's play was often overshadowed by ...

Andrew put together a nice recap of last
night's Sixers game earlier in the day , but
here's a short highlight of the final sequence of plays. This team may be awful at times, but some solid D during crunch time and a well executed break is always nice to see. Solid little two-hand slam ...

I'm certainly no SABR geek but I have
come to enjoy a good advanced stat once in
a while as another tool to evaluate a player's performance. Yahoo!'s Big League Stew is running a series which is basically "Advanced Stats for Dummies" and in today's post on BABIP -- Batting Average on Balls In ...

The Onion absolutely owns it with their latest
article on the Eagles. From the amazingly titled "
Eagles Settle for Field Goal After 260-Yard Drive ,"At least we came away with three points. Those 120 yards in penalties really hurt our field position, but those conversions on third and ...

Les Bowen writes , "Offensive coordinator Marty Mornhinweg
said if quarterback Donovan McNabb yelled over on camera
during Sunday's loss to San Diego that the Eagles should have run the ball on third-and-1 from the 7-yard line, 'He was probably right.'" I just felt like we should note this ...

Enrico said it best in the comments of
the game thread: "Maybe they should threaten to take
Brand out of the starting line up every night and then he'll finally put up some numbers." Indeed, the Sixers thought they were getting a 20-10 guy when they inked Elton Brand to an $80 million dollar ...

Remember when I said that the one upside
of Marreese Speights going down with a torn MCL
was that at least Brand would now definitely get all the minutes he needed to shake off whatever rust he had left from spending the better part of two seasons on the bench? Whoops. Four days after a ...

The Eagles have a ton of work to
do internally before fans are willing to take them
seriously again. It's the same story on offense: convert on short yardage and inside the red zone. The defense needs to come up with crucial stops late in games. As a team, they need to reduce the number of ...

The Astros could maybe be forgiven for letting
Bobby Abreu go unprotected in the expansion draft in
1997. He appeared in just 74 games for Houston, with a combined .687 OPS over 234 plate appearances. But I bet the Rays were quickly kicking themselves for drafting him on November 18th, only ...

Ever since Allen Iverson packed up his guitar
