Phillies

Ryan Howard's open wound might set him back a bit. It will be interesting to see how he is physically able to handle this season, as his injury was very serious.

The Phillies need him in the lineup if they hope to win in the playoffs.

Flyers

Can't blame last night's loss to the Sharks on Bryzgalov, as the Flyers lost a 1-0 contest in the final game on their road trip.

This team is very inconsistent on all fronts. They still have time to smooth things out, with more than a month to play in the regular season. Laviolette is a great coach, which gives them an edge.

Phillies

Jimmy Rollins will be leading off when the Phillies play their first game against FSU on Wednesday.

This team has enough to win the World Series, despite what happened in 2010 and 2011.

If Manuel can work his roster in just the right way, the offense will be better. If Halladay, Lee and Hamels start 30+ games each, their sixth division crown won't be a problem. If Papelbon and the rest of the pen all fall into place, the middle and late innings will go smoothly. If the bench is helpful this season, the positional starters will be properly supplemented.

If the team stays relatively healthy, they will be fresh in October.

Worried about too many ifs in 2012? You shouldn't be. All teams have them.

Play ball!

NHL Trade Deadline Day: Why No Flyers action?

Flyers

The Flyers made their moves before the deadline by picking up two defensemen. Their offense is among the best in the League, but does need more defensive-minded forwards.

There's no way they could have dealt Bryz and Bob is too young to give up on, thus no moves today.

Spring training

There are a number of interesting stories developing in Phillies training camp. How will left field and third base look by the beginning of the season? Who will fall into what roles in the bullpen? Will Thome actually play some first base this year? Cool spring questions that will be answered over the next month, or so.

Flyers

As of now the Flyers aren't charging down the stretch drive. Instead, they are limping.

This must change if they hope to make reasonable playoff progress in April.

Hockey trade

Carter's deal to the Los Angeles Kings somewhat evokes memories of the Miami Heat "We want to be together" arrangement. While that involved free agents colluding to play together, this deal played off Carter and Richards on- and off-ice chemistry.

This reunion could be fascinating for a variety of reasons.

Phillies

Ryan Howard and the Phillies front office are both talking about him returning to the team around May.

Howard said today that he hopes to be feeling fully himself by July.

It will be very interesting to see what the Phillies offense is like without him.

New York Knicks Jeremy Lin is another breath of fresh air

Jeremy Lin

New York Knicks point guard is not only a great basketball story this season, he's also a great breath of fresh air within the sports culture.

While his play has rightly been the focus, his response to the ESPN issue was a true breath of fresh air. This 23-year-old modeled his Christian faith by not playing the 'victim' card. Kudos my friend.

True reality show

While they are in different sports and have different skill levels, Tim Tebow's actions during the football season combine with Lin's in a uniquely positive way that shows a secular culture a true reality show.

Flyers

Paul Holmgren made a nice move in picking up Pavel Kubina from the Tampa Bay Lightning. Despite the goaltending issues, he believes his team has a chance at the Cup. The additions of Grossman from the Stars and now Kubina must be respected. As is often the case, the Flyers are going for it.

Phillies

Pitchers and catchers are officially at work in spring training. And so the quest for the 2012 World Series begins.
