The well documented 25 year drought for Philly sports fans can end tonight. The Phils take a gut wrencher in game 3 and bomb out a win in game 4, they now lead the best-of-seven series 3-1. Ryan Howard is back, in case you haven't heard....Werth, Rollins and Utley are supplying the rest. Everyone is getting in on it, even Joe Blanton went deep last night -- the first time a pitcher has hit one out in the Series since the 70's.

Tonight Hamels goes, the biggest Yuengling and Cheese Steak party of all time could commence this evening. They now have three cracks at it, but I'm sure they wouldn't mind skipping the trip to Tampa.




Notes...I had the perfect sports weekend, literally...Phils win 2 WS games and appear ready to take the crown...first attended Uconn football game of the year for me was a smashing success, Edsall's boys put up a big second half and come from behind to beat Cincinnati and stop a two game skid -- are now bowl eligible...1860 keeps rolling, beating Osnabrück 2-0 on Sunday for their third straight...the Giants suck it up late and get to 6-1 courtesy of a hard fought win in Pittsburgh...J.J. Henry went a long way in securing his tour card, by firing a closing round 64 and jumping him 17 spots to 120 with a $208k check after finishing tied fourth (two weeks to go)...Cruz Hernandez heads home an OT winner to lead #15 Uconn men's soccer to a 1-0 victory over # 13 Notre Dame...Boston College loses to UNC (anytime the Eagles lose is good, especially to a team that drilled Uconn)...the Rangers won two games over the weekend, literally any team I have an interest in won, Marist hammered Iona...Xavier upset Hamden...every single team, even the most obscure, won...tonight I am in need of some continued good luck, I will need Wayne to out perform Harrison by 4 points to avoid my second loss of the year in Fantasy, would you really doubt me right now? I've got the hot hand.
