As well as sunday. Dont forget the sunscreen, though, water temperatures right now right around 70 degrees. That Weather Authority seven day forecast showing you a pair of tens for this upcoming weekend. And then look at monday. A little more humid, 86 degrees for the High Temperature. Tuesday, wednesday, thursday were looking at temperatures around 90 degrees. Hazy, hot, humid, pop up showers and thunderstorms and then look at next friday. Yeah, its the fourth of july. Its not going to be as humid. Were looking at temperatures topping out around 86 degrees. So right now it looks like we could have another nice weekend as we kick off the fourth of july weekend next weekend. All right. A pair of tens, this is the fixth or sixth weekend in row weve had good weather. I know when you say that another good weekend. Terrible. You know, all right, guys. Well, sixers they finally had their draft. It was the night we were all waiting for. You know first it was andrew bynum. And that it was nerlins noel not in the draft andrew bynum but as players here. Nerlins noel and joel embiid the sixers arent afraid to gamble on injured players. Gm sam hinkie broke his silence today to talk about the draft. He mentioned embiids injury will keep him out a little longer than previously expected instead of four to six, now its somewhere between five to eight months. In the end we feel good it is calculated risk, and that hes a remarkable talent. In our minds and only this scenario and only this scenario, um, does he does he fall to three. So only in this scenario. The sixers once again asking fans for their patience while embiid recovers. Which translates into another losing season and another year of aau ball. Philly i think had five, second round picks. They do. So im sure theyll be trading, moving around doing some stuff. By the way those guys might all be starting for them next year. Watching philly last year they should have suited up ai and gave him run. Philly is the first team weve seen in awhile that said we dont want to just be bad, we want to be bad for multiple years, collect assets. We dont care if we win 15 games a year for four years. Fans are smarter now. Youre right. Fans are smarter. Thats why you can bowl a role of tickets at their games last year for 15. Fans are smart enough not to pay for the tickets. Honest and brutal. Almost as exciting as the nba draft, the nhl holds it draft tonight in south philadelphia. The flyers have the 17th pick. This comes four days after trading away Scott Hartnell a player that didnt necessarily want to leave. His friend and former teammate Claude Giroux talked today about playing without him and what it was like to have a guy like hartnell in the locker room. Hes the worst teammate. laughter . No. Hes i got in probably six years ago and, he took me under his wing right away. Its tough. Any time youre close to someone and they get traded, its kind of hard to move on. And after a late night with the marlins the phillies open series again the braves. It took 14 innings to end this one. But chase utleys walk off homerun gave the phils a threethree win and out of the lineup for a second straight night dom mick brown, john mayberry, jr. , gets the start in his place. That miss played ball the other night wednesday night is really can i coming to get dominic brown. Right. Wait, wait, its over your head. Over the head. Big win for them last night, though. It was huge. Exactly. Good for chase utley, too. Exactly. Third walk off homerun. Good for him. Colleen thank you very much. Weve got more news coming up for you.
