    About to watch it. I rarely listened to them. People love them though.

    Dude got his start at Channel 10 because his girlfriend was the daughter of the dude who ran WCAU. Her dad liked to win at their softball games, so Wheels was young and decent at baseball, so he would fly him - FLY HIM - in from Penn State to play in these games. From there he got an 'in' to the Phillies by the guy running Channel 10. Boom. History. And the entire Delaware Valley has suffered ever since.

    so you got around to reading harry the k?

    Parts of it. On Google books.

    I honestly think there's a chance that all teams sweep in the first round. And ATL looks terrible right now, and San Fran can't hit for shit.

    ok boys game 2 time - Roy2 time do your stuff. let's jump out early again and bury this team before they can react. friday night, good weather, crowd should and better be nuts from the beginning. let's get to Arroyo. I'm sensing a monster home run by Howard.

    as if us normal people didn't need another reason why sabermetrics are a fn joke - read this bs. Lincecum's outing better than Halladay's? moronic. Even the Fixer couldn't defend this sabermetrics bs.

    Looks legit to me! :lol: The only reason I could see Lincecum being more dominant than Halladay is because of K's and the lead Halladay was working with.

    GO GIANTS!!

    one of the craziest games i've ever been too...great teams find ways to win games like this even when they're not playing well. and, let there be no doubt, this is a great team.

    after two deflating losses, your jeagler is officially declaring the reds TOAST.

    Welp. It's beeen a looooong 24 hours. Don't give this team a second chance......ever.

    Absolutely loved Charlie's response to being asked about whether Chase got hit.

    Awesome article - http://www.nytimes.com/2010/10/08/sport ... imessports

    Dude has caught a perfect game, a no hitter, and lead Lidge with his nasty slider in the dirt to a World Series. I think this is grounds for Little Roy to never shake him off ever again.

    well we will take it for sure. up 2-0, agree Jaegs this team has to be toast now.

    funny not to see the Fixer on here - imagine if Howard made two atrocious errors in a playoff game like Chase did (as he did against the Dodgers last year) , his head would explode. thankfully Chase is an unbelievable base runner (although missed 3rd) - whether the ump missed the call at 2nd or not the only reason it was close was because Chase busted it down there.

    how good is it to see Rolen suck and absoltely choke on a routine grounder? love it.

    Let's get Cole to bang out a great game and bring it home early - no messin' around end it Sunday boys.

    2 down and 9 to go - they don't ask how just how many.

    Why did MLB put the Phillies game at the same time as the Eagles game? scratchhead.gif

    At first they had it at 7, then yesterday they moved it to 8. Makes no sense. Unfortunately I won't be watching either. I'll be at The Gorillaz concert. Well hopefully they win. GO PHILLS!

  • Seeing as the Jays haven't made it to the postseason since '93 I've not seen a playoff game ever or really paid much attention to baseball come October. However I'd like to see the Doc win a world series - so GO PHILLIES

    They moved it to 8 because there's no Yankees game tonight. I was excited about that 7 start. Now have to stay up to midnight and go to work tomorrow. Oh well, at least it's not 10pm like last year.

    Let's go Cole - do what you do!
