Sarah Palin attempts to win over Philly crowd. Fails.
Hotdog & Friends — The powers that be did their best to cover this up with a vaguely patriotic fanfare, but to no avail. Who in her campaign told her that appearing before a Philly crowd was a safe play? Who? Who is running this? These people boo everything! Even when they don’t have a reason. She might have had better luck at the Apollo, which you could also read as “Bad decision”. This quote from the Philly Inquirer made me laugh. Outside Broad Street, waiting for Palin to leave, one man was heard saying, “Let’s stone her, old ...

Flyers Fans Mercilessly Boo Sarah Palin

The organizers of the photo-op tried every trick in the book to counter any booing. Cute little girl in home team jersey? Check. Palin's knocked up 16 year old daughter? Check. Music so loud that you can't even hear yourself think to drown out the boos? Check. But even with all ...

Two videos and some thoughts
Bruins Nation — The Anaheim Ducks are 0-4-0 and the Philadelphia Flyers are 0-3-1. I'm loving it. Everyone picked the Ducks to do well, I didn't. Although it has only been four games, the Ducks are not playing well. Meanwhile the Flyers suck too. I hate the Flyers, and I picked them to miss the playoffs as well. I honestly could not care less whether he Ducks sink or swim, but I really want the Flyers to
