it's gonna be weird to root for the phillies if they play the yankees in the world series. i'd rather see the phils win it cause i wont have to deal phillies fans around here like i do with yankee fans.

you will burn and i will lite u Your never aloud to wish good for us in less it helps out your team. ball busting isnt worth your division rival winning anything. I wouldn't ever wish good on the MUTS in less it helped out the phillies. U better root for anyone but us or u have failed as a fan.

when you get shit for wearing your favorite teams gear in your own damn town or city you'll understand why i hate the yankees more than anything in the world. do you know what it's like to listen to sports talk radio up here in ny these days. it's pure flat out fucking shit bro. yankee this, yankee that. when is joba gonna be a starting pitcher, can cc pitch on 3 days rest. i'm starting to listen to talk radio these days.

this met/phils hate only started a few years ago cause espn and fox wanted a new rivalry and cause a few players on both sides started talking shit. you guys sucked for bout 10-15 years until 05-06. you can't deny that at all. for most of my life I've hated the braves and still do more than anythin besides the yankees. i cant tell you the many curse words i said to rocker during those 99 and 00 playoffs out in leftfield at shea or the many larry chants i did when chipper jones cam up to bat. i can't say that bout any phillies players, now can i. if the yanks and phils make it to the world series i will proudly root for the phils. hell i'll even buy a shitload of yankees suck tshirts and sell em around the spectrum parking lot for 5 bucks and donate the money to wishlist foundation. I'm sure they would sell like hotcakes.

can't believe manuel is throwing pedro is game 2...dumb, dumb, dumb, dumb. now he would be slated to throw games 2 and 6. I would feel much more confident with blanton starting those 2 games.

I don't understand the confidence in pedro...he has pitched once in the last month and he isn't that good to begin with.

makes zero sense to me.

at least they left kendrick off the roster

cause pedro does good in warm weather. his offspeed stuff is better in the sun than the cold and cause pedro loves that dodger stadium mound. pedro is also money in the playoffs. also the dodgers basically treated him like traded and exiled him to canada. that's why it makes sense to start pedro.

go back 5 years, and that would be accurate. we have had winning seasons in 7 of the last 8 years. 2002 was the last losing season for us. golly gee, that was a loooooooooooooong time ago huh?

the rivalry actually started because the past few years were the first time both teams happened to be good (for the most part ) at the same time.

7 MORE WINS TILL WE MAKE HISTORY LADIES AND GENTLEMEN

i am feeling pretty confident with that old goat pedro on the mound today. dude....if we can win these first two games out in la?!?!!? OOOOOOHHHH BOY!

We can't lose to Padilla, can we?

I have a feeling Pedro will pitch well this afternoon. Should be well rested, ready to fire

Phightins'!!!

we can lose to Padilla - he has always had good stuff, he is just nuts. Both of these guys can be head-hunters too so this game could be very interesting. Victorino and Martin are coming to blows at some point in this series.

it's Wolf we can't lose to - I always liked Randy but he had nothing 5 years ago.

petrocs

We will NOT lose to Padilla tonight...2-0 going back to Philadelphia to close it out. and then Im gonna turn on ESPN and watch Rutgers STOMP Pitt

What the hell do you want them to talk about? Don't you think all of that is quite relevant considering the Yankees are in the playoffs?

Good game last night. Should turn out to be a good series.

This is irrelevant, but Metsfan, the Phils "sucked" up until 05-06? Rrrrright. They've been one of the most consistent winning teams since '01. Just haven't gotten over the hump to the playoff until '07. This coming from a Mets fan. Dude, seriously? You guys won in '86 and have tasted as much of the playoffs as us since then. Seriously, you're a Mets fan, futility is in your blood more than ours.

Anyway - 7 MORE WINS BOYS!

660 is 10 million times better than any local sports station we have in philly. I love listening to mike francessa...he is a walking sports encyclopedia.

and who cares about 10-15 years ago. the phils have been good for the last 3 years (and had winning records for 5 years before they finally made the playoffs 3 years ago). The mets suck.

and this is a phils thread...we don't care about the mets come october. now scram

he was money in the playoffs 5-10 years ago. in case you haven't noticed, he isn't the same pitcher (as a mets fan you should know this all too well).

blanton would be the smart choice for games 2 and 6...not soul glow

The Fixer

I seem to be in the minority on this board. I think pedro gets shelled today. I still don't know why he is pitching today.

Phils can still win though with Dr Jekyl and Mr Hyde on the bump for the Dodgers.

They got the split they needed...a win today is gravy

I didn't say he IS going 7..I said we NEED a good 7 from him

Let the Pen chill for a game

Which brings me to who closes the 9th if we're ahead ? Lidge on back-to-back games has been terrible

pedro has only pitched once in the last month. I will be shocked if he gets into the sixth. actually I'll be shocked if either starting pitcher gets into the sixth. I'm not expecting much from either starter today. pedro said his last bullpen session was 'erratic' and he hasn't faced live hitters in almost 3 weeks now.

Bullpen is gonna be piecemeal...whoever ends up getting the final outs will be determined by the situation.
