Next Philly Sport Championship Up

What a great time to be a Philadelphia sports fan. Villanova has won their 2nd basketball championship just shortly after the Philadelphia Eagles won their first Super bowl championship this year. After missing a few years our Sixers and Flyers are back in the playoffs again this year. Our Philadelphia Phillies are showing signs of being more than just “Relevant” with a host of young talented players with stardom potential. All I want to say is Thank you coach jay wright for starting it all off with one of the most memorable NCAA championship wins and an eye-opening championship parade just a few years ago.

I can only imagine the mindset of our Philadelphia sport owners as they watched how their Philly fanbase received their local Villanova champions. What owner wouldn't’t want that type of national respect with the opportunity to share to share an incredible achievement with what might be the most passionate sports fans in the sporting world. Call it a mind shift, just coincidence, just a stroke of luck, good timing or whatever else you want. In the last 3 years you have seen our Philadelphia owners take matters into their own hands and to a different level. Hextall expedited the youth movement and now have our Flyers in the playoffs. Middleton is now or front and center and their future looks bright with a few potential cornerstone all-stars type of caliber players. Our Sixers brought in another GM to help expedite “The Process” and have them in this year's playoffs. And finally, what still has every Philly fan still fist-pumping is the remarkable shake up from the owner Jeffrey Lurie a couple years ago that has landed our Philadelphia Eagles their first Super Bowl championship this year.

The likelihood of our Eagles, Sixers and Flyers teams making serious playoff runs during the next three to four years is looking great. Our Phillies future is just as bright with a host of young super talent. While our Phillies future probably are one more year away, they have enough talent to start making that competitive playoff run starting this year too. Just remember that these teams may have one of youngest teams in each of their respective sports. I’ve been telling people for the past 2 years to watch what happens to the Philadelphia sports era between 2018 – 2022. Even though these teams are young, they are also loaded with talent. No doubt there will be a few bumps in the road along the way because of their youth. But the ride into the next big Philadelphia sports era should still be amazing to be see.

Thank you Philadelphia Eagles and Villanova University for the championships and parades this year. I get this feeling that there will be more to come and multiple championships for a team or two just maybe possible too.

Philadelphia Phillies on a roll

 
With the NFL draft happen this week in Philadelphia,the Philadelphia Phillies are saying don't forget about us. The Phillies are enjoying a 5 game winning streak while getting some major contributions from their young players. Franco, Herrera, Hernandez, Galviz have seem to found just enough consistency to keep them winning games. While many people were wondering if they could improve on last year's record, I wouldn't be surprised if the Phillies finished above .500 this year. Kendrick was definitely pulling his weight before going on the 10 Disabled list and now Saunders is looking pretty good too. The pitching has been okay but getting better. They will be okay as long as they keep hitting, scoring and playing good defense. 
 
They still have room to grow as their raw baseball talent at times still show through their young inexperience. But don't tell these guys that as they seem to keep pace within their division. One great thing is that they're able to go on this 5 game winning streak while Joseph and Rupp are just starting to have better at-bats. You have to love the job that coach Mackanin and Bowa are doing with this young team. Yes when the majority of your team consist of young raw talent, there are going to be miscues and mistakes along the way. I'm not sure you could ask much more from the Phillies coach that's  working on the last year of his contract. 
 
One beautiful thing is that the Phillies are getting serious contributions from Altherr who is replacing our veteran leader Kendrick for a few games. My man Nava is also filling in nicely too off the bench when needed and holding his own as well. They have a few outfielders in the minors that also are knocking on the door to make their major league call up louder. 
 
Right now they're winning and having fun doing it too. Let's keep it going!
