    Sometimes the negativity of this thread gets me so depressed. Did the Phillies lose 12 of their last 14? They must have - everyone on the team stinks.

    Ok - who's in next Friday, say 7pm, at Oakmont Pub or PJ Henry's - so far:
    Johnny Abruzzo
    The Fixer

    Not this guy, suburbs are too much of a hike for me. If any of you guys are ever in Philly (you know, the place your favorite team plays), a whiskey or beer at Petes Sake is on me.

    Edit: I should have added, enjoy though. I am sure it will be a good time.

    I'm in Philly plenty, so I'll take you up on that at some point. (I atually have a friend who's a Yankee fan; he's fairly sufferable otherwise. :lol: )

    P.S. - The Oakmont Pub is less than a mile from the Norristown High Speed Line.

    Definitely let me know. I am a good baseball fan in general (at least I think so, someone whos name starts with pj and ends with hawks would probably disagree though). For Petes Sake is a great spot too.

    Interesting, may have to consider it then. Thanks for the heads up.

    Well, we'd all be rooting against the Mets, right?

    Also, I find it a little ironic that your needling Delco people for not living in Phila (a little bit) when you're a Yanks fan who lives very far from the Bronx. :? :P

    Yes, I don't really have anything against the Mets anymore but I certaintly don't root for them.

    Haha, fair enough. Good call. Wasn't really needling though, just fucking around since the meet up was going to be outside the city.

    you can be a good fan and still be clueless - just kidding. i may disagree with some of the people in this thread but clearly everyone here is pretty big baseball fan so it's all good.

    It's cool. Quick Philly suburbs description: Delaware County is for people who like to say they're from Philly but don't want to pay the taxes. My wife grew up in Chester County, and just tells people she grew up in "Pennsylvania."

    For Pete's Sake looks like a cool place. Love that neighborhood.

    i may be a bit biased but delco is probably the biggest hot bed for the philly sports fans. lots of blue collar/middle class suburban towns very close to the city.

    Gotcha, makes sense. I don't know the burbs too well. Girlfriend went to West Chester and have been out there a couple times but that is about the extent of it.

    Great spot. I am right around the corner from there. I love the neighborhood. My first 2 years I was in Old City, which was cool, but kind of hectic. Huge fan of the area I am in now.

    WHO'S TALKING ABOUT PETE'S SAKE? !!?!?!?

    I'm all for a meet-up there. Anywhere in the city actually, even if I'm in the burbs now. God, I can't wait to be back in the city.

    I didn't have any problems that whole week. A little bit of shit talking here and there but nothing bad. I saw some Yanks fans acting like dipshits getting into some shit but I didn't have any problems.

    The mouth is salivating with thoughts of good Irish whiskey, and the most boss bar grub in the city.

    For those in Delco -

    Like I told Fixer, I'm working at PJ's on Saturday's during the day and Monday nights. Might even catch me bartending and cooking at the same time.

    Yeah, there really were no problems. Only problem I had was waiting for my dad outside the Mike Schmidt statue to go into the game before game 5, and some Yankee douche was humping the statue. Well, I couldn't take it, told him to beat it and that nothing was being clinched at least in our house.
