    baseball america's new phils top 10

    http://philliesminorthoughts.com/baseball-america-2015-top-10-phillies-prospeccts/
    1.J.P. Crawford
    2.Nick Williams
    3.Jake Thompson
    4.Andrew Knapp
    5.Jorge Alfaro
    6.Cornelius Randolph
    7.Franklyn Kilome
    8.Roman Quinn
    9.Adonis Medina
    10.Carlos Tocci

    I am pretty sure 6-9 are not real people. Those names can't exist.
    You don't know Adonis? Him and Roman are professional wrestlers, ol' Frank Kilome runs the barbershop up the street, and Cornelius is busy running H.R. Pennypacker's anvil mill. One of them may be a cousin of the Monopoly guy, still trying to verify.

    Fun fact - Cornelius is best friends with Art Vandelay.

    Yeah. Oh well. Makes every vote count that much more....as cliche' and nerdy as that sounds...

    At the least, all I really care about is that City Council gets shaken up.

    On a related note, I am toying with the idea of coating my roof before the winter - thing is, you should do it above 60 degrees (not just during the day but over the course of 24 hours it shouldn't drop below 60 degrees). Of course it's cooler than 60 at night. Bad idea? Wait till spring?

    Any roofers here - have a propensity to wear hammer boots and hammer clothes, and pray for rain so your boss calls off work so you can drink all day at the bar? Anyone, anyone?.....preferably from the Upper Darby area?

    Sucks to see quality writers like Ryan Lawrence lose their jobs today while guys like Marcus Hayes remain employed.

    Damn. Sucks

    Same with Jake Kaplan looks like. I'm assuming Matt Gelb saw the writing on the wall and got himself into other material there. Or he just wanted to cover something other than a shitty baseball team.

    I'm assuming people like Hayes and Bykofski are still there due to unions and such. Fucking unions.

    Yeah I guess they have tenure. There are barely any decent writers for DN or Inquirer anymore. Just schmucks like those guys who most believe are jokes. No wonder that industry is dying.

    Yeah, that is all unfortunate. Why do they publish the Daily News again?

    I refer it as "that place in Camden">LOL!!(because of ALL the name changes)>and it has nothing to do with it being in Camden. I wish it was a better place as i live about 25-30 minutes from ther. The sound is not the greatest, especially if you're out on the lawn(Unless they've improved it?) Haven't been ther since 2008.

    Man it's tough being a fan of these teams right now. I'll leave this here rather than posting in all 4 threads.

    someone told me the sixers were the last team to win a round in the playoffs. the team trying to lose for 3 years was the last to win a playoff round. i don't think it get's worse than this.

    we sold our soul for '08.

    not exactly correct. flyers won a series in 2012 as well. sixers probably just did it a few weeks later because of their schedule.

    remember when people bitched about the Phillies during the winning years? was kind of ridiculous then and looks really dumb now. of course those people have moved on to other teams and will be back once they are good again.

    and don't forget a lot of people insisted on how great the new football coach was and how much of an upgrade he was over his predecessor. another thing not looking so hot at the moment huh?

    It's pretty obvious that the first few years of Kelly have been an upgrade over the last few years of Reid.

    Few weeks later, but yeah, Sixers were the last team to win a round. Hard to believe, Harry.

    Just liking someone doesn't make him great. The media were the main culprits calling him a genius. I guess no one is good/great unless they win a title.
