Fans Excited Sixers, Flyers Winning Along With Phillies Return

When the Sixers and Flyers are playing well this time of year it’s exciting for Philadelphia Sports fans.  Add College Basketball into the mix heading into March and sports fans have a lot more to talk about with the NFL season being over.  When 2021 MLB Spring Training starts and Phillies Baseball returns to the field, many Philly sports fans can’t contain themselves.

The Phillies open up their Grapefruit League play on Sunday at 1:05pm against the Detroit Tigers.  The Phillies new President of Baseball Operations Dave Dombrowski has committed himself to putting together a nucleus of players that can win now!  I can’t wait for baseball to be back especially a team whose ambition is to be winners!! 

The Sixers defeated the Dallas Mavericks on Thursday night to improve their overall record to 22-11.  The Sixers are a team with a couple of All Stars but do they have enough talent to win the NBA Championship this year?  The rumor mill is abuzz with talk of the team acquiring one more player that will put them closer to their ultimate goal of winning the NBA championship.

After 16 games so far in the 2021 NHL season, the Flyers are in Fourth place in the East Division with a 9-4-3 record and 21 Points.  With COVID-19 wreaking havoc on the Flyers and on the NHL schedule, the Flyers are fighting through it to find the right combinations on offense and defense.  In their win on Wednesday night marked the return of Captain Claude Giroux who help ignite the Flyers' offense with his Three Assists in their win over the New York Rangers on Wednesday Night.

This Saturday in The Locker Room with Billy Schweim, Scott McKay and I will discuss the week's hot topics in sports.  Will the Sixers make a move to improve their lineup?
