>>>Did you hear? The Philadelphia Phantoms are (probably) headed to the Lehigh Valley, with a year-long stop in, um, Glen Falls, New York, aka “Hometown, U.S.A.” Actually, Glen Falls is freaking gorgeous. Maybe they just needed a break from the sea of pavement at the sports complex. [Morning Call]
>>>Go to sixers.com right now, and the team will beg you to buy tickets for tonight’s playoff game. Boon to the Sixers tonight: no Dwight Howard, because he got his ass suspended for elbowing Samuel Dalembert in the face. The Magic will be missing Courtney Lee as well, who fractured his sinus in a collision with, um, Howard. Tix start at $15. Go Sixers! [sixers.com]
>>>Apparently, former Eagle Vai Sikahema and radio “personality” Danny Bonaduce repped Philly so hard when they gave Jose Canseco beatings that the steroidal famehog got boxer’s disease. Because now he’s going to fight a seven-foot-tall Korean kickboxer in a mixed martial arts bout. Hong Man Choi doesn’t seem to be very good, but for God’s sake, Danny Bonaduce fought Canseco to a draw. The man will get his head kicked off. [Fanhouse.com]
>>>Know any scullers? Neither do we! And their World Rowing Forum, scheduled for this November in Philadelphia, has been canceled. Poor rowers, and poorer us for not having that rich rowing money coming to town. [row2k News]
