After 2, Sixers in best shape

Out of the 8 series’ going on in the NBA playoffs, the Sixers are the only team to have one a game as the underdog.  In all other 7, the higher seed is leading 2-0.  I think that is interesting.  I do not believe the Sixers WILL win four games against the #2 seed Detroit Pistons, but they are in the best position to upset a team out of anyone in the playoffs as they go home for 2 games in Philly.  Just thought it was worth noting.  It’d be incredible to see them take Detroit to a 7th game.

Also, the Phillies are back to .500, which also happens to put them right in the middle of the division at 3rd place.  Is anyone surprised to see Florida on top at 13-8?  Somehow they manage to get good and even win a World Series every few years even though they have one the lowest payrolls in the league, never resign any of their good players, and fire their manager every other year.

Finally, could the Phillies have the MVP (either Utley or maybe Burrell?) and our first CY Young (Hamels) since, um…
