It would be a fabulous Cinderella story, and we Philadelphians LOVE those.rundeephttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13268692799782942178noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16034332.post-41514653315195580462007-10-01T15:55:00.000-04:002007-10-01T15:55:00.000-04:00I'd say this was a pretty big one...Odd -- both th...I'd say <A HREF="http://www.baseball-almanac.com/box-scores/boxscore.php?boxid=199510280ATL" REL="nofollow">this</A> was a pretty big one...<BR/><BR/>Odd -- both the Phillies and Mets put 40-something lefties out there, one with long track record of postseason success, the other a journeyman most of his career who caught some late life.<BR/><BR/>And the Hall of Famer gives up 7 runs in 1/3 of an inning.<BR/><BR/>Odd...JohnMcGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07476537916134121570noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16034332.post-54576771777198591812007-10-01T08:00:00.000-04:002007-10-01T08:00:00.000-04:00Isn't it IN-consolable, august?

Not to worry, that's what all of Pennsylvania be by the end of this month when the Phils inevitably drop the big one, as all Philadelphia teams (historically) do when they finally get a shot at the big time. One thing you can't deny though, no matter what the sport, Philly teams are <I>always</I> the most entertaining to watch. I'm reminded of Lenny Dykstra's maw-spitting-chew tobacco-belly-hanging-over-his-pants while cranking out all those home runs in the 1993 world series.topazzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06379903935323340176noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16034332.post-40766818354343688032007-09-30T21:12:00.000-04:002007-09-30T21:12:00.000-04:00Nothing matters but this: Phils win the NL East.

Poor David Wright. They aren't even my favorite team, yet I am unconsolable. And to make matters worse, the Yankees are in. <BR/><BR/>humpff.augusthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12042512777302374341noreply@blogger.com
