    Finally got to Han dynasty. Really really fucking good and really really spicy. The heat is rated on a scale of 1-10. The waiter said tobasco is a 2. My entree was a 7 and the woman got an 8 and good fucking god was it hot. The fiancé thinks she's going for a 10 at somepoint. Really good food though, not just the heat

    Booking my shit today. Cannot wait. Chicago is fucking awesome.

    weekend show + only playing one night + chicago + historic venue that they've never played (and who knows if they ever will again) = can't miss trip.

    If you haven't been to wrigley just make sure you give yourself lots of time for the beer lines and toilet breaks. I think it's gonna be worse than MSG...on par with how the spectrum was.

    yeah the weekend show is what sold it for me. every concert should be held either thursday, friday or saturday nights.

    figuring the beer and bathroom lines will be similiar to fenway.

    never been to chicago, other than a layover, i can't wait to explore it. always wanted to go there.

    Chicago is a good time. No go for me. Too much traveling already this year and getting married. Hopefully this stupid countdown is a tour announcement.

    I like the sunday night show as well. I have pulled the ol get hammered sunday, take off monday many times. Usually not as crowded sunday nights as well.

    fenway is a shithole. most overrated stadium I have been to. Great it has a green wall...the rest sucks

    you will love chicago. 2nd best city in the US after NY. I cannot wait. Bought my PJ tix and booked my hotel yesterday. Working on flights now.

    phillies have been outscored by 45 runs this year. only teams with worse run differential...

    houston
    miami
    seattle
    milwaukee (who has beaten up the phils this year)

    not sure what the hell amaro is waiting for. get a clue and start trading some of these scrubs

    also, ryan howard sucks ass. lose some weight you $25 million tub of shit

    Two weeks from now I will be sitting in Wrigley watching PJ. Been almost two years since last seeing them at PJ20 (which is crazy). Countdown is on.

    Funny. They both suck (and so does michael young)


    the hypocrisy in Amaro’s recent criticism of first baseman Ryan Howard:

    In an interview on Wednesday, Phillies general manager Ruben Amaro, Jr. made this comment regarding lefty slugger Ryan Howard’s slip to platoon status:

    “If Ryan Howard is now relegated to being a platoon player, he’s a very expensive platoon player and he needs to be better,” Amaro said. “I think he knows it. I know he’s struggling, I know he’s not happy with his performance — neither are we. I think he’s going to be better, but right now, he’s just not doing the job.”

    [...]

    The real question here is not Howard’s lack of production against left-handers, but who the hell Ruben Amaro thinks he’s fooling. It takes a lot of chutzpah to blame a player for not doing something that he has largely been incapable of doing for the entirety of his career. What Amaro is really asking Howard to do is to metamorphose into an entirely new and fundamentally different player at the age of 33. This is spectacularly unfair and unrealistic.

    Platooning Howard is the correct call, but Goldman’s criticism is spot on. Getting upset at Howard for not hitting lefties is like being shocked when Phillippe Aumont walks two batters in an inning, or when Michael Young grounds into another 6-4-3 double play.
