Big shout out for Blair Betts in this game; he was everywhere in this one, and it's nice to see the guy who flies under the radar play so well.
Flyers Play of the Game: Leino Wins It With Another Spin-o-Rama
The Flyers survived a hard-fought yet mostly sluggish first 40 minutes and ratcheted things up in the final 20, ultimately beating the Nashville Predators with two goals by Ville Leino in the third period. Back in early December, we put together a post on Leino's proficiency with the spin-o-rama...
This video is just the cherry on top of the sundae of awesome we witnessed this week. Thank you Crossingbroad for sharing.
Video: Philly Owns New York
The Eagles not only completed an incredible comeback, but they also capped off a week of Philly dominance over New York sports teams. On Monday night, news broke that Cliff Lee would take less money and play for the Phillies, instead of the Yankees. Over the weekend, the Flyers put a hurting ...
If this doesn't pump you up, then you don't have a heart.
Let's do this Phillies! Get back to that World Series, and bring another one home!
A Little Sound to Get You Pumped
Great work by reader John Lord (@souperwawa) putting this together. A brilliant montage that starts with Philly sports suffering and culminates with calls by Harry Kalas and Scott Franzke from the 2008 run. It's outstanding. Give it a listen (just click to play). If this doesn't give you go...
Well... if this Hockey thing doesn't work out for Carter, he sure has a future as a star of "Celebrity Jersey Shore"
Vick Wanted to Play the Whole Game, Iverson Going Far East, and Carts is Tan
Defenseman Matt Walker brought a potential suitor for Jeff Carter into the Skate Zone. Kind of looks like Briere's ex-wife... A lot going on today. Football season is officially underway, Flyers rookie camp began, the Phillies are one game ahead of the Atlanta Braves with three weeks to play...
I imagine if they did a Chase Utley bro-date, people would be clamoring for it like the people in Willy Wonka, looking for that golden ticket.
Joe Banner is Fuckin' Cute and Stew Bradley Wants a Bro-Date
And that will conclude our homoerotic football comments for the day. Stewart Bradley is looking for a local man to take on a bro-date to Tweed. Bradley launched his bromantic campaign yesterday on the Preston and Steve Show (listen to the interview here) and fans are welcome to apply. Simply...
This starting to get more, and more entertaining as time moves on.
Trade Cliff Lee, Get a Criminal
Perhaps GM's should be more wise when trading away Cliff Lee. Last month we told you about Tyson Gillies (one of the prospects the Phillies received in return for Lee) and the time he left coke in a cop car. Well, it seems now that the Mariners have a similar problem. When they traded Lee to ...
It is pretty gaudy.
Welcome to The Wells Fargo Center, Steelers Country
The Wells Fargo Center, sponsored by Sharp Quattron Check out this pic of the new sign at the Wells Fargo Center tweeted by the Flyers. It's ugly. Really ugly. We get that it's their logo and all, but man does that look like something you should see in Pittsburgh. "EEEB28" sums it up best in...
...it's almost as if Spags hacked into Weave's twitter account.
They'rrrrrrrrrrrrrre Great!
Life is great! The Eagles are great! Leonard Weaver is great! Uhh, we must have been watching different games. The Eagles first-team offense scored one preseason touchdown.
...wait, can't be. The first Pre-season game isn't until the 21st.
We Have Ice, Folks
The crew at the Wells Fargo Center painted two Flyers logos on the freshly frozen ice today. Fans were welcome to attend (yay). CSN's Sarah Baicker tells us that about 20 people showed up- excitement! See more pics of the madness at CSNPhilly.com and at PhiladelphiaFlyers.com.
I am so excited for this season.
...also, they're prepping the ice for a preseason game, correct?

I really don't approve of the pink Eagles Jerseys.
Morning Carts: Frosty Tips Edition
Yee haw, motherfuckers It’s been a while since we have seen the elusive Carts out in his natural habitat. He has spent much time this summer at concerts in Atlantic City and Camden. Like in the picture below with Dan Carcillo and Ville Leino after a Nas concert at the House of Blues. He has ...
Yeah... not gonna lie, I'm really starting to like the Jets; specifically for Rex Ryan.
Rex Ryan Wants The Jets to be More Like The Flyers
Wearing a Showtime hat... For those of you who watch “Hard Knocks” on HBO, you probably know what a hard-nosed guy Rex Ryan is. Yesterday, he said he wanted his team to be more like the Broad Street Bullies. "Look at the Philadelphia Flyers during their Broad Street Bully days. Every team in...
No matter the outcome, I really don't agree with the use of Lidge here.
Phils-Dodgers: Swing Away in LA
There seem to be two schools of thought when it comes to seeing your team get no-hit late into a game. Some fans are, for love of the game, cheering for the pitcher even though he's throwing against their team. Others are praying for anything from a bloop single to a lightning strike to end the ...
@Zack, three... he came to play!
Leonard Weaver: 'I Think I'm Ridiculously Awesome. Indubitably.'
Mike Bell interviewed Leonard Weaver in the locker room. Or the other way around. Or something. Bottom line: Leonard Weaver is awesome.
Nice job from Durbin there.

Hahah! That's awesome.
Video: Ryan Howard's Cup Falls Out
The Big Piece lost his, um, big piece. When Jayson Werth grounded into a fielder's choice in the top of the 5th inning of last night's game, Ryan Howard appeared to be clutching at his groin on his way off the field. Turns out it wasn't his groin at all. His cup fell out. Check out Howard as ...
Enrico Campitelli : Ace PI.
What the Hell?
From Tuesday night's telecast of the Dodgers v. Phillies game in L.A.
It's a shame, I'm going to miss John Boruk. I liked his coverage of the Flyers. I'll also always remember the video montage he narrated the day of Harry Kalas' death. Hope all things go well for him.
Lisa Hillary Takes Over as CSN's Flyers Reporter
There is a real good chance Jeff Carter will be granting more locker room interviews this year. Lisa Hillary will replace John Boruk as CSN’s on-air Flyers reporter. Male fan golf clap. Hillary will join CSN Philly from CSN Washington, where she covered the Capitals. This change had been ru...
We can log into 700Level with twitter now. Neat.
What the Hell?
From Tuesday night's telecast of the Dodgers v. Phillies game in L.A.
Booooooooo! First we lose "FU Center", now we lose "Wacho Center". Will they not let us have our nickname's in this town?
Wells Fargo Sign Added to the WFC
This is not exciting, I'm warning you.
The man is a legend. Start prepping is spot out on the Wall of Fame in monument park.
You "bet your sweet ass" Jimmy Rollins Can Still Hit
Jayson Werth told a funny story about a comment Charlie Manuel made recently, when he was asked if Jimmy Rollins could still hit. Yep, we put it on a t-shirt already. Get it here at crossingbroad.spreadshirt.com, only $15. It's much better than the "Ill" shirts.
I kept hoping someone would grab that cardboard sign, and rip it up in his face. Too bad. Would've been funnier if someone on opposite side had held up a sign saying "For the last time no, I will not marry you!"
Proposal FAIL: Phillies Fan Demands Marriage
WHY ARE YOU YELLING!!! And why no question marks! Clearly this seems like the type of thing you would submit for her approval. Also, why capitalize ME! Is she marrying someone else and you're trying to win her over! These are valid questions. (!!) This is the epitome of a Gen Y proposal. D...
