#Sixers drafted another 3/4 guy who can't shoot and a big man who dropped. Doesn't sound good but we'll see what's next.

And now, #Utley returns. Hoping for the best, but fearing a sad goodbye.

#PTI & #AroundtheHorn actually tried to link Papelbon offering $5k for a walkoff hit after his blown save to NFL bounties. Ever hear of credibility, boys? Guess not.

Just when we thought it couldn't be done #ESPN sets a new low for pandering. Saw nothing but the #Heat parade for an hour at the gym. Thankfully I couldn't hear, yet Riley still made a fool of himself. Later heard phrases like "shocked the world" and people "doubted this team." Just proves teams will use any cliché for motivation.

Wasn't watching much baseball the first time Thome was in town; phenomenal to watch his latest stretch of hitting.

Charlie Manuel actually told reporters Jim Thome won't play 1st base. #WTF Thome had too much trade value?? Charlie wanted to lower the bar for other teams?

Fluxuation on #NBA #Finals is nuts; #Heat opened at about +140, went to +220 after Gm1, now -115.

First Banner, now DeSean Jackson needs a new challenge. Maybe some day the #Eagles will view winning the Super Bowl as a challenge.

Only David Stern could make Jim Rome look like the good guy. And, by the way, the way #NBA refs favor "stars" is a bigger problem than rigging the lottery. Legit to question lottery though. Stern's model of every team having a star may have helped the business, but it's killing basketball.

Love all the media apologists for the #Heat already cranking out the excuses.

Watching the #Phillies has become an exercise in hoping they don't lose, and hope isn't winning either.

Typical confusion about what really happened with the #Eagles. #Banner seeking opportunities with other teams? That would make this incredibly strange. Maybe it makes sense if he's looking to be an owner, but that still seems odd. Was he fired? Timing seems odd. Reid on the hot seat or more secure? I don't get it.

The LeBron James lap dogs are killing me today. Mike Missanelli wants to blame the role players? Get a clue! The Heat signed 3 max contract guys; teams don't get role players with that. They knew the deal going in, don't point fingers now.

The #NBA is on the brink of a #Finals of the #Thunder vs. #Celtics instead of #Spurs vs. #Heat. David Stern can't be happy.

Reset button hit on both NBA Conference Finals; very surprising in my opinion, thought both were headed for sweeps.
