With a December chill in the air, this is about the time where contenders start to separate themselves from the pretenders, and of course you can’t do well with a couple of players starting to heat up. With some players heating up, some players will also hit the wall, hard. For the Philadelphia 76ers, playing very well […]

Despite Andrew Bynum constantly finding ways to not play, the Sixers have done somewhat well, especially considering they’ve been without their best player. In their first 13 games, the Sixers have gone 7-6, recently losing to the Oklahoma City Thunder in OT. Although the Sixers have lost games to lowly teams like the Detroit Pistons […]

It’s been over a month since the Philadelphia 76ers acquired star center Andrew Bynum, but yet we still are gearing up for the 2012-2013 NBA season with expectations that will be met with no less than a semi-final, or even final round exit in the Eastern Conference Playoffs. Of course, the Sixers have their first […]

Alas, the long football offseason is finally over and us couch potatoes can return to the sofas, turn on FOX, and watch some Eagles football. Kind of.

Rollins hit solo home runs in the third and fifth innings. Two […]
