The Iceman Posted April 1, 2021 Author Share Posted April 1, 2021 1 hour ago, JTA66 said: If waiving Ghost was meant to send a message, epic fail! For me, this all goes back to 2005 and the implementation of the salary cap. The Flyers have never figured out how to achieve sustained success since then. Five GMs, god knows how many coaches and it's always the same -- up against the cap and struggling to make the playoffs. And if they do make it? Maybe they win a round at best. Don't forget, if they lose that shoot out on the last game of the regular season in 2010, they don't make the playoffs and that Cup run never happens. If Fletcher maintains they're not selling, it's only because no one wants what they're selling. Maybe I'll buy a Kraken jersey when they become available. +1. The way to win in the new nhl is bottom out for 3 seasons stockpiling elite young talent. It's shameful teams like the new york rangers have been to a cup and rebuilt in less time the flyers. Missing on picks like nolan Patrick is inexcusable and sink a franchise. I really don't have much hope for the future with the flyers. They have a bunch of good pieces but no great/elite pieces. It makes a big difference. I'd blow it up... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Birds~69 Posted April 2, 2021 Share Posted April 2, 2021 Nice win for the Phils. Bullpen didn't blow it once the Braves tied it in the 7th. Solid outing by Nola but didn't get the W..... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sadly these types of crime are on the rise across the region. Who would of guessed that defunding the police would have these kind of consequences but I digress... Indeed that's a very scary style incident. Fortunately in Pottstown the criminals seem to resort to more traditional patterns so far. The defund the police thing started back even before some of this social justice stuff started really getting kicked up. So becareful not to squarely place blame just on that (which is not an accusation). I'm really against centralizing the police force as many Pennsylvania townships are doing. As you saw first hand response times are not good when that is done. Oley township is now central berks police department with a few other townships. I would like to see more focus put on educating new officers in investigative work and civics as opposed to having all of these military like vehicles which generally serve only a limited role. I think requiring police to work in pairs is a good thing to improve quality and career satisfaction for officers. Sometimes using time proven methods is the best way. I dont see why this all has to be so complicated but I guess people just think they can save a dime. Glad yous all are okay. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Iceman Posted May 10, 2021 Author Share Posted May 10, 2021 Sixers have won 8 in a row albeit against pretty weak competition. Good to see them on a roll going into the playoffs though.

If somehow Brooklyn ties them (super doubtful) their still #1 seed because they'll win the head-head tiebreaker. However if Mil sneaks in and ties them (again, super doubtful) Mil would be the #1 seed due to the head-head tiebreaker... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JTA66 Posted May 13, 2021 Share Posted May 13, 2021 Agreed. 1pm games means your team sucks (and we’ll get the worst announcers available). It’s just a personal preference of mine — get the Eagles game in first, then sit back and enjoy the remaining games. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only favored games are the New York teams, Lions, and Bronco's. Every other game, the birds would be underdogs. Don't care though, this season is house money. Either Hurts will step up and show he's the guy to build around going forward or he crashes and burns and the Birds have a top 5 pick next year plus 2 more. And with Indy's and Miami's schedules, don't be surprised if at least one of those ends up top 10 as well. I could easily see Miami/Tua coming back down to earth this year especially after Bill B bought every FA known to man. Best case is Wentz plays full time next year but plays like he did last year. That Indy pick could be top 10 as well. Imagine having 3 top 10 picks... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
