Okay, so the Flyers are still on the brink of elimination, but if they keep bringing hits like this, they might be able to do a good ol' fashioned comeback. (We've got to admit, we're more than a little disappointed that Crosby popped back up after this hit.)

...and we promise that we'll forget about that tie against the Cincinnati Bungles.

Philebrity reminds us it's been 25 years since we saw Philly's favorite reporter, Jim O'Brien.

What to Watch: It's the Flyers vs. the Penguins in Game 1 of the Eastern Conference Finals at 7:30pm on Versus. Bad news for the Orange and Black: Kimmo Timonen has a blood clot in his left ankle. The Flyers' best defensemen will likely miss this series and possibly the remainder of the playoffs, a huge blow to the Flyers' chances of shutting down Sidney Crosby and the high-flying Pens. But hey, they've dealt with injuries all season—just another speed bump for the 2K8 Broad Street Bullies.

The Pistons blew out the Sixers last night 98-81, putting Philadelphia at the brink of elimination. But, the big story from the game was Samuel Dalembert’s new coif. Sammy shaved a fresh mohawk before Tuesday’s game, with the initials “SD” on the side. “SD” stands for “Samuel Dalembert” and “strong defense” according to Sixers play-by-play man Marc Zumoff. Sammy’s nemesis Rasheed Wallace went for 19 points, 6 boards and 6 blocks, so Dalembert might just want stick to telling us it's his namesake.
