Flyers playoff predictions.

     To all the Flyers fans I would like to say that I am sorry I haven't gotten around to addressing our beloved Philadelphia Flyers.
     The Flyers have made the Stanley Cup playoffs once again. Though the Broad Street bullies came out of the regular  season losing four of the last five they hit the ice with a WINNING attitude. The Buffalo Sabers took the first game 1-0 behind their MVP goal-tender Ryan Miller who made 35 saves in the game. This did not phase the Flyers a bit. They took the next two games turning on the offence scoring a total of eight goals.
     I have not seen the rest of this series nor the what is left of the playoffs due to it only being April 19th. I will not say that nobody else could win the Stanley Cup, but I will say that if the Flyers can beat the Sabers that could boost their confidence enough to get to the finals.
                                                                       GO FLYERS!!!!!

Manny Ramirez retires.

     Many people did not have great hopes for the Tampa Bay Rays, but the signing of an old slugger Manny Ramirez gave people around the organization a little more confidence going into the 2011 season. The two time world series champ was sure to a boost to the Tampa Bay line-up. This was not to be. Ramirez tested positive for performance enhancing drug and would have been give a 100 game sespension if the didn't decide to retire.
     Ramirez went 1 for 12 in his short five game 2011 season. I can't say this roid head would have been to much of a diffrence to this Tampa Bay club. 
    

Opening day for the fighten Phills.

     This was a day Phillies fans all across the Delaware Vally were waiting for. The ace of four aces, doc Halladay (Roy Halladay) was going to take the mound as expected. Citizens Bank Park was again sold out just like all of last season.
     Roy was not his usual self, but that doesn't mean that he had a bad start. Doc went 6.0 innings giving up 1 earned run. The real problem started with the bullpen. All together the bullpen gave up 3 runs in 2 innings of work.  Would I be writing this if the game ended 4-0? No.
     The Phillies turned it on in the bottom of the ninth. Even though they didn't get a home run the Phils climbed up to tie the game at 4-4 with the bases loaded. Maybarry got the game winning single to center feild. 5-4.
     Not a bad start to a season with great expectations.
