Three and out...

1. Cole Hamels and the Phillies go for the clincher in LA tonight. While it would be splendid to clinch the series in front of the Philly fans at The Bank, we would just assume Cole end it tonight. The Dodgers are "pesky" and the Phillies are still prone to offensive droughts. Hopefully we win tonight and the Red Sox extend the Rays to game 6 (at least).

2. Nice to see the Eagles cut bait with running back Tony Hunt. Nothing like having a running game that blows and your former third round pick can't help out, let alone stay in the league more than a year and a half. Yet another example of how pointless it is to let Andy Reid run the draft. And it's only a matter of time before 2006 second round pick Winston Justice is unemployed, too. So...the owner (Jeff Laurie -- the guy whose mom bought him the team) is cheap and the coach is clueless as a talent evaluator. Oh, and his 1980s Bill Walsh offense no longer works in the NFL.

3. The Packers won their second straight game last night in flag football, defeating the Bears 27-18. The Playmaker had three catches. One was a 30-yard touchdown (taking a 6-yard button hook and running the other 24 yards to the house.) Another catch was for our first two-point conversion of the season. Our record is now 4-2.
