The Flyers Continue To Struggle Defensively & In the Net
I have watched back-to-back games that were complete and total crap. I’m not going to sit here and tell you that I expect the Philadelphia Flyers to come out and win every game, that would be unreasonable and insane. At this point, I’d settle for some consistency.

Is it pretty safe to call yesterday one of the more ridiculous sporting days of 2011? In hockey, you had your usual wild finishes, but a seventeen-goal game between Winnipeg and Philadelphia stole the show. In college football, Case Keenum threw for nine - again, nine - touchdowns in a single game.
And, that baseball game? Unreal. Can...
