BUT it's so nice to see the Phillies getting whipped.
No more Phillies fans bragging about being World Champions. No more bandwagon Philly fans celebrating a team that they only began to care about when they started winning.
Don't care much about the Yankees winning since everyone knows they pretty much bought this ring. And, I think some good will come of it when the league finally gets smart and realizes that a salary cap is a necessity if competitive balance means anything at all to them.
(Yes, I am still bitter about the Dodgers losing.)

Dude, just let this dude go and let the Yankee fans have their day...
The dude is 3,000 miles away and doesn't recall LA fans selling their NLCS tickets for game 5 for $25 a piece on Stub Hub(thousands of them) when they were down 3-1 as opposed to what the crowd looked like Monday in Philly. Again, though, this isn't about Philly or LA - no matter what this guy has to make a point of stating. New York, it's yours.
I have a feeling we won't go 59 years between the next Phillies-Yankees series. Other than the 1996 Braves, the Phillies were the best opponent the Yankees defeated in the World Series during this era.

"Everyone knows they pretty much bought this ring"...from a guy blabbin about the Lakers in his sig ? What did they, do...EARN theirs ? :roll:
If a ring can be so easily bought, why doesn't every team do it ?
Charlie Manuel was very classy in hi's post game interview he is correct they have nothing to be down about they have a great nucleus for the future ......good series congrats to both teams
Yes, this was the Pedro us Met fans remember so very well..seriously who didn't think he was going to get lit up? Lucky to escape and get chased after only 4 runs..anyway, as much as I hate the Yankees, they have a great team and the better team won..the best team the entire season won the world series, which is obviously not always the case..go Mets..

Whipped??? whipped??? 6 games in the World Series is whipped??? When is the last time the Dodgers were in the World Series????
That's what I thought... and yeah your final line is telling... so fuck you.. and we still are the 2008 World Fucking Champions.
Whipped in this game is what I meant, but take it however you will.
I won't deny that I felt a bit of pleasure in watching this tonight after all the shit Phillies fans talked after the Dodgers series.
Good for you...and we are still 1988 World Series champions...no one gives a shit unless you have the last one.
congrats on your championship from 21 years ago. pretty easy to come on here and rip us before the series starts....and then waiting until its over to rip us again. lord knows we would not have heard from you had we won. kinda fraudulent if you ask me. seems to be your MO around here.

congratulations to the yankees. the phils certainly did not play up to their potential. its a shame because this could have been a 7 game classic. but the yanks are a good team and were the better team in this series, so congrats.
i have no doubt we will see you next year... and the year after that as we own the NL and will only get better next year.
andy clinching all three series is pretty awesome. I don't think Matsui will be back so i'm so glad he came out and did what he did. He will be missed.

Baseball is unpredictable, especially in the playoffs as we've all seen..it's all about timely pitching and it changes drastically from year to year..Hamels and Lidge were complete disasters this year, who only a year ago played major roles in their championship run...don't think the Phills would have been in this position if it weren't for the midseason acquisition of Lee and Pedro, who both pitched incredibly well at the right time in the season/playoffs..see how that works Mr. baseball?....we'll see what surprises are in store for next season ..

I guess I'd be be bitter too if my team lost in 5 games 2 straight years and had no heart
It's funny the team reflects its fans in LA

disappointing to lose but great they got as far as they did. Getting to game 6 of the world series with a lousy bullpen and no bench was pretty impressive. this team has everyone in the starting 8 back along with Lee and hopefully a return to form for Hamels - no reason they can't be right there again. enjoy the run with this team, it is special.

it's really amazing we came within 2 games of back to back world championships with such poor seasons from our supposed ace and closer. they can't be any worse next year.

Yeah, the fact that yesterday's game may be Matsui's last in the MLB is pretty sweet. If I were him I'd retire, he's already a superstar in Japan, and now with a World Series MVP under his belt he really doesn't have much to play for over here.
Whatever Matsui's choice is, I'm glad to see that happen to him, he's always played hard and he came up big for us several different times.

if the mets didn't have a terrible season. maybe you don't reach the playoffs.
What Pearl Jam song was playing after the Yankees won the championship, I walked in and caught it at the last second. They were showing a montage of the six games, sounded like something from the new album

don't you mean if the Mets didn't suck for 3 straight seasons - I mean we've only won the division 3 straight years over the Mets but some people still think the Mets are better. And people wonder why people in Philly hate New York.
Well good series was hoping it would go top a game 7. Congrats to the Yanks and Matsui for taking home of the MVP. Would have helped if half the Phillies would have show up (Howard, Lidge, Hamels, J-Roll)

it is satisfying to know the yanks beat the 2 best teams in the league to win this one.
hell of a season.
