A Cure for the Flyer Blues?

A Cure for the Flyer Blues?

ERIE (PA) -- These last two Flyer games have been a little on the painful side to digest, no? I may have inadvertently discovered a cure for the headaches, the churning upset stomach and the heartbreak of psoriasis that comes from following yet another Flyer failure on Saturday for the SLU game. It takes only four easy steps:

1) Drive five and a half hours in semi-blizzard conditions

2) Arrive at destination

3) Check UD/SLU halftime score on iPhone

4) Turn off iPhone and get on with life

I was able to enjoy my family time (which is why I drove here in the first place), free of the frustrations that come from the ongoing play-by-play pathos.

Have I given up on the Flyers?

Hell no.

Do I recommend this ‘cure’ for everyone?

That’s up to you, but it’s worth a shot.

Beat St. Joe’s Wednesday night and while all might not be forgiven, it will definitely be a step in the right direction.

Meanwhile, back on the intrawebs:

-- How close to going in was that last-second three pointer by Matt Derenbecker against X? Lensman extraordinaire Ron Thaman from FlyerHoops.net provides the photographic evidence that it was, as suspected, half-way down:

-- RushtheCourt.net checks in on the Atlantic 10.

Spoiler Alert: They have the Flyers ranked 13 out of 16 teams.

Be sure to read the comments section after the second article, as Griz fans have some very nice things to say about CJ.
