Headline Topic: Ryan Howard and Mike Schmidt
Ryan Howard and Mike Schmidt are indelible members of the Phillies franchise. I'm pleased to have been alive to see both of these great sluggers.
Schmidt is undoubtedly one of the greatest players (not just third baseman) of all-time. Howard is one of the great sluggers of this era.
Here is my recent feature about both men:

Headline Topic II: Three Flyers' Legends
I enjoyed writing two features this week about Brian Propp, Dave Poulin, and Tim Kerr.
These three Flyers are among the best in team history, so it was natural to pass my 'writing puck' from Propp, to Poulin, and then to Kerr (on the power play of course) during the past three days.
It was great to see both Propp and Poulin at the Winter Classic Alumni game last New Year's Eve Day and to be with them in the locker room after the game. Both are classy gentleman.
Kerr wasn't involved with the game, but it was interesting to learn that he has done some marvelous charity work for children since retiring.
