Sorry for the long break. I have been very busy the last few weeks with various things from work to vacations. Anyway, I have been working on optimizing a new website to host my blog. Broad Street Heroes will soon be hosted on http://www.broadstreetheroes.com/. I am working on the site to make it beneficial for myself and my followers. Please be patient with me, and I promise it will be up very shortly.
As for current events, I really need to address many things in the world of sports, as well as some things that are out of the sports realm. First things first, what the hell is going on with the Phillies? I take a hiatus from baseball and Madsen loses his stuff, Rollins has completely fallen apart, Ibanez and Bastardo are on the DL, and we lost an astonishing 9 of 10 games. Either we can’t hit or can’t pitch, or both. All I have to say is at least we are working out these problems during this part of the season and not in September when it matters most. I’m confident that the Phillies will find their groove again and run away with the NL East.
I really want to talk Flyers hockey even though it’s only the middle of summer. There is so much to look forward to next season. I am already looking for tickets for the Winter Classic at Fenway, considering it is the one park I have never had the pleasure of visiting. I am psyched about the signing of Chris Pronger, although losing Luca Sbisa was rough, he will grow into a great player I am sure. Paul Holmgren is showing us that they want a Cup NOW, and that is music to my ears! I can’t wait until July 15th when the schedule is released and the NHL officially announces the Winter Classic lineup. Until then, its time for free agency, we’ll see if the Flyers make another big signing.
When it comes to the 76ers, I am happy but also disappointed in their decision to pick Jrue Holiday in the NBA Draft. With Ty Lawson and Eric Maynor on the board I really thought they would go with one of those more experienced guards so that they would have someone to step right in and lead the offense if Andre Miller decides to leave Philly. Instead they took on a project, and the kid could be a star some day, but that day won’t be for a few years. At least they’re looking towards the future.
Now that it’s July we are that much closer to the start of the Eagles season. I was watching ESPN today and Cris Carter picked LeSean McCoy as his #1 rookie for this season due to his attributes when it comes to catching the ball. The Eagles love to utilize running backs in the passing game, and hopefully McCoy will fit very well into our system.
Anyway, that’s all I have for now on the sports front. Oh yea, I had the opportunity to watch all four professional league drafts this year. I would have to say that the NHL Draft was the coolest to see because it felt like a huge family get together. Each team had a table and they could all talk to each other while the draft was going on instead of being in “War Rooms”. The NFL Draft was predictable and had way too much media attention, as it always is. The NBA Draft was nice because they gave you an opportunity to meet the draft picks and learn a little bit about them. The MLB Draft was very much like the NHL in that you didn’t know many of the prospects due to the fact that it is mostly geared on potential for a few years from now, but I wanted to watch Strasburg get picked.
I also want to send out my deepest regrets to the families of Ed MacMahon, Farrah Faucett, Michael Jackson, and Billy Mays. It is quite astonishing to see so many familiar faces pass away in such close proximity to each other. Hopefully Farrah’s passing will educate more people about her disease, although it was overshadowed by the sudden death of Michael Jackson. As for Michael, he may have been insane, crazy, or whatever you want to call him in his personal life, and I admit he had more than any person’s fair share of issues, but you can’t deny that he is one of the best entertainers of all time.
That’s all folks. We’ll talk in a few days.

Depending on yourself to make the decisions can really be upsetting and frustrating. Many of us develop this ability over the course of our life. Frankly it takes more than just happening to happen.
I’m wondering if you have noticed how the media has changed? What used to neve be brought up or discussed has changed. Frankly it is about time we see a change.
Personally I’m impressed by the quality of this. Sometimes I fav stuff like this on Redit. Although this time I’m not sure if this would be best for the users. I’ll take a look around your site though and submit something else.
While I really like this post, I think there was an grammatical error close to the end of the fourth paragraph.
