    Saw his wife's part last night. Really difficult to watch...
    Watched some of it this morning. Got about halfway through and thank god the stream got all buffered so I had an excuse to turn it off. 
    yeah I caught that the other night on comcast sports  NBC philly sports (or whatever it's called now).  Yeah very difficult to watch.  Caught some of whoever went before she did, but have no idea who he was.

    Gonna miss the spot on Delaware, but the new Yards get up looks sweet.  Looking forward to checking it out.

    Think that was his dad.


    I hate this nbc philly sports channel. All it is when they're not broadcasting a game is nonsense talking heads like espn morphed into over the years. Their "highlight" show--is only 15 minutes now. The fuck is that? Who wants to watch endless repeats of post game live over and over again? 


    Oh---and now they have this new Eagles classic games show where it's literally just Michael Barkan and Didinger talking about the game instead of showing the game. I guess the NFL won't give them the rights or something, but what's the point of the show if you can't actually show the game in the first place? I got excited when I saw they were doing the 04 championship game and Body Bag game the other night.....only to tune in to see them sitting there just talking about it. So annoying.

    I did the same thing. 10 min in to the '04 game it was all Ellis and Barkan. No thanks.
    Alright, alright, alright!

    Nice, however I hope that wasn’t breakfast. Sunday mornings are meant for breakfast food. Gotta start your football Sunday right.

    Breakfast was simple.  a nice fresh bagel with butter and cream cheese. Also a few slices of think cut bacon from the Italian market.

    I think the worst part of Let's Play Two is that  Eddie doesn't know the song Dirty Work by Steely Dan.

    It's streaming on Amazon so I finally saw the whole thing last weekend. All I kept thinking was how much I would enjoy this more if Ed was a Phils fan and this was about '08.

    Seriously, who doesn't know that song?

    Yeah, had it on there last night keeping the baby entertained (the brain washing starts at a very, very early age). Again, I'll say it's not crazy over-the-top with the Cubs shit - actually thought it was pretty anticlimactic the way they showed the final out and what not. And the setlist intertwined isn't greatest-hits-terrible - a nice mix of obscure and the usual.

    Yeah, but the whole thing is a thing because of Eddie being a Cubs fan, no? Otherwise, it's not a thing.

    And of everything that kept my daughter's attention it was Mike playing the guitar, so she already has gained some respect by me.

    This band needs to do a ballpark tour.

    True true.  I get it.

    Yeah, I could get down with that.  Prefer arenas more, but I am definitely down with CBP over Camden.

    Arenas, sure, but it's been a while for an outdoor show with an outdoor tailgate in beautiful outdoor weather.

    Utley for bench coach rumors?

    Utley for bench coach rumors?

    On the subject of Utley hanging them up, I feel as if he, Rollins, and Howard should do one of those "sign a 1-day contract and retire with the team" deals. The three of them together. Rollins and Howard haven't officially retired yet. And I actually admire Howard putzing around in the minors last year (hey....love of the game). But it's over for all three of them. I'd like a nice little ceremony at the CBP press room with the three of them, flanked by Charlie Manuel and the Phanatic, calling it a career. They came up together. They won together. Now ride off into the sunset together.

    My wife didn't feel anything at 18th and Market I wouldn't have thought anything of it if it obviously didn't get reported.  Would have thought it was a truck driving like a dick up Moyamensing.

    "Ohtani: I've only been to Hawaii and Arizona, but I like the huge steaks.

    MLB.com: What cities are you curious about and would like to see?

    Ohtani: The Rocky Balboa statue, I want a picture of that.

    MLB.com: Philadelphia has a baseball team, you know.

    Ohtani: No, I just want to visit there."

    Fuck you, Ohtani - we PAY you and then you PLAY here. Then you can take all the pictures you want with that goddamn stupid fucking statue.
