    paddles?

    Dazed and Confused-style. "FAH-Q" paddles - Mitch Kramer is gonna get spanked. I would love to see a bunch of Ben Affleck-esque assholes waving paddles at him, "C'mon, Mitch, you can get it now and get it over with!". Ben Affleck's only good performance. Fact.

    i should be ashamed of myself for not geting the reference. well played.

    however.............ben affleck did have one other good performance in his illustrius career and that lasted about 5 minutes in...boiler room. other than that, he's a complete dope. though i heard the town is pretty good.

    october is one of the best months in SF. I'd say those games are more likely to be played in "baseball weather" than those in philly.

    you won't bait me into trash talking because the phils are the class of the NL, but......

    GO GIANTS!!! FEAR THE BEARD!!!

    I gotta say, though, he's a decent director - Gone Baby Gone is excellent.

    not fear but a healthy respect. no doubt your pitching matches up but i'll take almost every position player for the Phils over their counterpart for the Giants. Only Buster Posey has an argument for being a better player than his Phils counterpart, although it's iffy beause Chooch is a great catcher and clutch hitter. I know one thing, if the Giants do win the series they will earn it. Phils won't give it to them. Give us your best shot San Francisco.

    Chooch is definitely better defensively, and while Buster is a better pure hitter, it doesn't get any more clutch than Senor Octubre'.

    sadly, you're right :roll:
    circa 2009 Panda would have been good for us...not the current fat, defensively challenged clown who will swing at anything.
    still......if panda and uribe could just get in a groove....we need every one of our guys to have the week of their lives...some of these guys can hurt you, but they were mostly no-shows vs. atlanta. thank god for cody ross! :mrgreen:

    So it looks like they're throwing Sanchez in game 2. I think that's a mistake for them. Even though our lineup is fairly left handed, we hit against lefties just as well and I think pitching him in a smaller park is not good for them. Oh, also, in our ballpark I could see this dude shitting his pants. He just has that look. CC shit his pants, and this dude is definitely not CC.

    With that said, if I were the Phils, I'd do the same with Hamels.

    Hamels in game 3 though leads to Hamels in Game 7 if need be and I'd much prefer Hamels in game 7 over Oswalt.

    This is flawed logic. There's no reason why Game 7 is any more important than Game 6. You want your best pitchers to throw 1st, 2nd, 3rd. If you think Hamels is better than Oswalt (I'm not sure I do, still) than you want Hamels starting Games 2 & 6.

    Ha, so funny to always see these ex-Marlins meet the Phillies again in the playoffs. Cody Ross came in to pitch in a blowout one time and was mocking Jayson Werth beforehand. Goddam guy didn't give up any runs, and almost struck out R6. :lol:

    It seems to me like the Phillies just have to come up with 3 or 4 runs four times in this series. I think they've got it in them. You don't even need a legendary playoff rotation to shut down the Giants' offense.

    So, my friends are big Phils fans and one of them has a brother who works for the players.

    I hung a towel on my bar in honor of them, this weekends series, and all you Phillies fans, especially my pal, Jeagler ;)

    Here you go! Good luck this weekend!

    yeah i was surprised to hear this. i love sanchez at the bank on sunday night.

    homefield advantage is not usually a big deal in baseball (except in the world series with the stupid dh)...but i think it is in philly. we can definitely get into pitchers heads.

    i still cannot convince my buddies to go to game 1. too expensive for them. but they have money. they're just turning into cheap bastards in their old days. i had to take the fiance to game 2 last week for christ's sake.

    it's the playoffs...i don't see how people can't buck up a few extra dollars to be there. :x

    You live in Harrisburg right? What's your story again?

    Also, is that your bar as in a business or your own personal bar? If it's the latter, job well done, sir.

    frauds. all of them...cheap/broke-ass friends...one brother working a congressional campaign, the other in jail (looong story), dad doesnt like going to games, cousins--none within a 200 mile radius.

    the fiance loves going to games though.

    this crazypj guy....is he really from h burg? i remember us giving him a rogering due to his cowboys allegiance last year, but i think we'd remember if he was really this close to philly..... :problem: that is a quality bar regardless though.

    I don't mind taking the wife....it keeps me in good graces so when I go with my boys she doesn't care

    It is annoying when we are walking out of the stadium after the game and she says "Did we win?"
