Hey look! Philly sports news that isn't the Phillies!

A couple of other interesting bits of news tonight before I head off to bed to end this horrid hangover:

The 76ers today officially announced a change back to their classic red, white and blue logo. As far as I'm concerned, that's great news. I always loved the old Sixers' logo and gear, and am glad to see it back full time. Hopefully now, they can start playing like some of those older teams again.

The second bit is concerning Philadelphia's other winter sports team. The Flyers will be travelling to Boston to take on the Bruins in the Winter Classic at Fenway Park on New Year's Day next season. The original plan was to have Washington head up there, but NBC wanted a bigger market to play Boston, apparently. Either way, it should be a lot of fun to see the Flyers playing outside to kick off 2010.
