Even though I have officially hit the panic button with my Philadelphia Sports teams, we have a huge weekend for you in The Locker Room with Billy Schweim and we are excited to talk all things Phillies and Eagles!
We will be broadcasting Live at LaScala’s Beach House in Brigantine this Sunday for our Eagles pregame Show from 10 am to Noon. Come to LaScala’s and you could to win an autographed Kelly Green Branden Graham Eagles Jersey (YOU MUST BE PRESENT TO WIN THE PRIZE).
The Eagles' loss to the Atlanta Falcons last Monday night exposed the Birds' inability to stop opposing offenses from scoring at will. The Georgia Bulldog five aren’t as good as we thought they were. After two weeks into the 2024 NFL season, the Eagles' defense is ranked at or near the bottom in almost every defensive category.
This Sunday the Eagles head to "The Big Easy" to face the high-powered Saints who have scored 91 points in their first two games. Eagles Quarterback Jalen Hurts has become a turnover machine: Since the start of the 2023 NFL season, Jalen Hurts has thrown 18 Interceptions in his last 19 starts and this season, the Eagles Turnover differential in their first two games is -3.
The Phillies drive me nuts with inconsistent play and the amount of strikeouts are piling up. In their last four games, the Phillies have wiffed 52 times and their magic number remains at four. The Phillies face the Mets in their second game of a four game series on Friday Night when Christopher Sanchez gets the ball.
In the month of September, Sanchez has pitched well in his three starts, with a 1.35 ERA. If Sanchez continues to pitch well, he should be the team's number three starter in the playoffs. We will break it all down this weekend in The Locker Room with Billy Schweim
On Saturday’s show, Mr. Everything Josh Hennig and Former Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Dave Klemic join me in the studio. It’s a packed show starting with every weekend during the baseball season we go “On the Mound” with former Phillies pitcher Tommy Greene brought to you by Blitz’s market of Ocean City.

Tim Chew from Tixforgood.org checks in with an update on what great prizes are available and finally we will talk with long-time college and NFL strength & Conditioning coach Jeff Hurd.
On Sunday, we invite you to join myself, Mark Grimes, and former Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Dave Klemic as we broadcast Live at LaScala’s Beach House in Brigantine. Our Eagles pregame show starts at 10 am and in hour one we get the “Keys to the Game” with Fox 29 news sports anchor Scott Grayson brought to you by Blitz’s market of Ocean City.
