    I've been in Havertown for 4 years. We plan on staying for a long time. I grew up in SW Philly - not much reason to live there now.

    We could use a few more bars/restaurants around here. Giampino's and Kaya's are ok, but nothing special. Shogun half price sushi on Mondays & Tuesdays is money.

    apparently the school district is good. at least that's what my wife tells me.

    We will have to check those restaurants out. We love going out to eat, but haven't had much luck with the places we've been to in havertown. We usually just head into philly

    Nice 2-run single for Doc. Good to see him making a contribution to the team for once!

    It's nice to win the game that you're supposed to win.

    Catching up here. Been out - actually in H-town doing some things at the bar.

    I'm down for any of the following that was mentioned. PJ Henry's on Haverford Ave. But if we do something there it'll have to be before the 29th - we're going under renovations from the 29th till the 9th of September. And, dudes, the food is going to be fucking amazing. Fixer, it's not necessarily going to be all Mexican.

    And who ever mentioned the Oakmont, not a bad spot at all. My boy Ryan bartends there on Friday nights.

    And, Fixer, when you said you mention H-town and someone seems to know someone - welcome to the world of Delco. That pretty much goes for any town in said county. It's a weird scene, but hey, I'm proud of where I came from.

    If you guys wanna do something at PJ's let me know, I'll set something up - maybe a special on food, yada. And I'll leave the brass knuckles at home. ;)

    I could do any Friday in August. Oakmont is a little better, since I can walk there :) . I could do PJ's as well. The name is appropriate for this crew.

    The Phillies do seem to play really well in Miami for some reason. Too bad Moyer's not pitching this series.

    Everyone knows everyone in Delco except for me, since I'm not from there. Maybe with time...

    well 8-4 will certainly fit into my 15 out of 20 clip i predicted a couple weeks ago when most around here were ready to call it a season. by the way, we're currently 10-12 in that stretch. hey oh ;)

    and we're 17-12 without chase, so why not?

    one thing about this team is that they are incredibly resiliant. it's pretty amazing really.

    and, like i said, our schedule right now is cake. so we should beat some of these teams without our 2 best players.

    I'm in the same boat. Most of my buddies are in Jersey or Philly. Would be nice to have some locals to grab a beer or 35 with.

    My August schedule is pretty wide open. Hitting the phils/mets game this friday, but after that I'm pretty clear until labor day weekend. I'm up for whatever you guys decide.

    JP, regardless of what gets decided here you will see me at your place sooner or later. Good to hear the menu won't be all Mexican.

    Yeah, that website's old as shit. And I never said it was micro pub. I don't know what they put on tap once they renovate, but right now they've got Dogfish head, Yards, Harp, Great Lakes, Sierra. Hey, it ain't Monk's or Grace Tavern.

    Cool man - good to know. I just think we should support out awesome local brewers, and not so much giant international corporate behemoths, is all.

    Is that an actual Friday the 13th I see on the calendar? That's gotta be the day! Who's in?

    I thought this was interesting. Charlie really needs to put the best team out there as much as possible, especially with the core players on the DL.

    http://www.philly.com/philly/sports/20100804_Phillies_Notes__Schneider_likes_Phils__mettle.html

    More of the big three
    The Phillies have six off days in the final eight weeks of the season. That could allow Manuel and pitching coach Rich Dubee to set their rotation so Roy Halladay, Roy Oswalt and Cole Hamels start every fifth day while skipping either Joe Blanton or Kyle Kendrick at times.

    Manuel didn't shoot down that idea Tuesday.

    "I would say that would be good," Manuel said.

    Early in the season, Manuel said he wanted Halladay pitching every fifth day. Entering Tuesday, Halladay led the majors in innings pitched.

    Hahahahhaha. Dude, she's the worst when she's on a show like this - absolutely no personality to carry a show like this, as stiff as a plank of wood. But VERY attainable.



    Ahhhhh, man. This is terrible. Cringing over here.

    Yeah, and she looks like she's in the works of having fatty, flabby arms. C'mon, Amy, get it together!! What sucks is I think she's my age, and she's turned on the age accelerator like crazy.


    God damn. So awkward. Absolutely cringing over here every time she talks. Put her and Marshall Harris together and you have the worst sports show in the world.
