Rumblings: Goodbye Philllies, Hello Sixers, Still No Flyers

>>>At 5.5 games out with 8 games to play, this is where we sadly proclaim the Phillies season to be over. That last bit of excitement was probably a bit hopeful on our part. [Phillies.com]
>>>The smack talk has already begun for the Eagles/Giants game, with LeSean McCoy calling Osi Umenyiora a ballerina (in which case he’s the most terrifying ballerina we’ve ever seen), and Trent Cole saying a deer is a better athlete than Eli Manning. We don’t see how that last one is an insult. Could you just run up to and tackle a deer? No, they’re very agile. [USA Today / Giants 101]
>>>And Sixers single game tickets officially go on sale on Friday, but some are available at a special pre-sale today, by entering promo code 12SIX15. [Sixers.com]
