    out this way?.....we've been craft ale housing it up a lot this summer. i would just go there. black lab bistro is decent in p'ville. byob. we like it there. you ever been to that one? and hacienda la michoacana is that mexican place in that big old building---not too bad.

    i'm actually moving out to the lansdale area in a month. kinda stoked to check out doylestown. never really explored that town but there's supposedly a lot of cool restaurants and bars. we shall see.

    Yeah, I was looking specifically in the C-ville area. We just ended up going to The Trappe. Was going to check out that places Tortugas, but after reading up on the place it's not really Mexican but more Tex-Mex (smother everything in beans and cheese).

    Big fan of Phoenixville's scene, but at 5:30 on a weekday it's a bitch to get into town. And, yes, have been to Black Lab - I like it a lot.

    Moving out to Lansdale huh? Heard of good things in Doylestown, but I don't know if there's enough there to keep me amused for the rest of my days. Move back to the Wayne area, or Ardmore. At least you're closer to civilization.

    And it's settled - going to Cochon or Supper for my birthday dinner this upcoming month.

    i was never a fan of tortugas. their food always seemed bland. you ever order from wibs? it's that wing and ribs place next to primos outside of my old development. wings are decent if you're in the area and looking for that kind of food.

    lansdale was never a place i envisioned living but we both work near there and her parents are in chalfont and sister and brother in law right there too. 202/309 and turnpike are right near the house so its just a little longer of a drive to places we like. real cool neighborhood though. can't wait to move in. wayne's way too expensive. :lol:

    I went to Supper a couple years ago for a work dinner. Was really good. Have obviously heard great things about Cochon but haven't been.

    Next on my list is that new spot called Serpico on South Street

    Any plase based primarily around pig, AND is a BYO, I am down.

    But I'm torn because I wanna try that sweet looking burger at Supper.

    Yeah, any place called Cochon will likely be good based on the animal alone.

    They only one I have been to in this area is Cherry Hill, but yeah, they are busy everywhere.

    Next time you are there do yourself a favor and pick up a bottle of Salamida's State Fair Spiedie Sauce and some chicken breasts (or pork), cube those bad boys and marinate them in the spiedie sauce for about 24 hours. Throw them on metal skewers and pop them on the grill then eat those delicious little fuckers on a slice of italian bread. You won't be sorry. JP will likely be able to vouch for them after this weekend.

    So it looks like they finally inked up the Cuban pitcher for a 3 yr 12 mil contract, which is sweet. So:

    1) It makes me feel a lot better with that contract

    2) He's going to suck because they probably found out how close he is to Tommy John.

    Thanks for tip Cliff

    Now just 3 years, 12 million for this Cuban dude. If he pans out as a number 3ish starter, that's quite a bargain. His arm will probably fall off in his first start though.

    this article is the epitome of why I hate the philly media and fans. same dopes complaining about how well victorino and pence are playing are the same dopes who said you had to trade them last year to get value for them at the deadline. can't have it both fucking ways.

    they had no chance to resign Werth at the price, and Ibanez was too old.

    only even remotely able to complain about is Schierholtz.

    I know the guy has his flaws but this is a very telling stat if it's true. I did not look it up.

    The Phillies are 93-69 in the last 162 starts made by Ryan Howard
    Alright, alright, alright!

    I commented on here in august sometime how it was interesting that the phils just don't seem to win games at the same level when ryan is not in the lineup. wouldn't have guessed it was as high as 93-69 though.

    the WAR guys have to hate this kind fact.

    Asche has such a nice swing. He is a keeper. Going to be interesting to see what they do with Franco.

    In some ways I hate that Freddy is hitting homers. He should be concentrating on putting the ball in play and raising his average, not hitting .220 with a little power. sometimes I think it's counter productive for him.
