Quoting from scripture or ancient texts may be appropriate at this time of year, but it usually isn't applied to modern day sports.
However, after yesterday's triple treat turned in by the Flyers, 76ers and Phillies, lessons from the good book -- and elsewhere -- seem heavenly.
THE GOLDEN RULE: "DO UNTO OTHERS AS THEY WOULD DO UNTO YOU"
Sabres dump Flyers in Game 5 overtime. Flyers repay the favor in Game 6.
"AM I MY BROTHER'S (GOAL) KEEPER?"
The Boucher/Bobrovsky/Leighton merry-go-round would make Noah seasick aboard his own ark.
THE TEN COMMANDMENTS: "YOU SHALL NOT COVET..."
Is all this success by the Flyers, Sixers and Phillies inducing envious nausea at the NovaCare Complex?
A CROSS TO BEAR
The Miami Heat losing even ONE playoff game to the gritty 76ers. That wasn't in the King James bible.
PASSOVER THE N.L. WEST
Phillies pitching throws unhittable matzo balls at Padres batters. Holy Moses, what a rotation!
IS THE EASTER-TIDE TURNING?
Chris Pronger's return; Evan Turner's emergence; Wilson Valdez's spark. A SOLID chocolate bunny for each!
Sunday was a moveable feast for local sports fans. Perhaps the taste will linger like sweet, sacramental wine.
