    Right. That's my point - the following novel wasn't needed. :thumbup:

    Oh, also, I'll see you Yankee bastard on the plane to Wisconsin. ;)

    So I hear, going to be one hell of a weekend. That worked out.

    so I guess pence was just overanxious during his first week here. he was lunging and out on his front foot every time he swung. he is keeping his weight back and hitting the shit out of the ball now. loving that guy

    crushing balls

    including today he is 5 for his last 24 with 12 K's.

    big HR today, but let's not get carried away. the guy strings consecutive hits together and there are 10 posts about how he's on fire :roll: .

    this team is playing well right now. everyone is contributing. well, except for ibanez

    oh really? 5 for his last 24? wow. thank you for those sobering, yet smallish sample sized, statistics.

    serious question: do you not like it when other people are happy?

    today you said chase utley is "so fucking good." well chase fucking utley is 5 for his last 26. :o :roll: ....yet somehow nobody felt the need to rip you for tugging at his nuts, yet again. no. why? because the rest of us are trying to enjoy this incredible season.

    this was a fucking great win even though it was just the dodgers. dog days of august and it was their 20th game in 20 days and they got down 6 runs right off the bat. most teams would just say "fuck it"---we're 9 games up and have been on an unbelievable tear lately and just take their collective foot off the gas....no sir. not this team. today we saw the team we all fell in love with when this core first starting this run in '07. never been more confident in this team all year as i am right now despite polanco's injury. ----that's the kind of stuff we should be talking about in here. jesus h chrrrist :lol:


    followed it on gamecast at work, now watching the replay and loving it.

    GO PHILS

    Nope. Unless you can find a USA sports pub - never seen one. Try tripadvisor.com.

    Oh, in Rome there's a Hard Rock Cafe. People went there to watch the NBA Finals on about an 18-hour tape delay, I remember.

    nice, we are spending a few nights there. flying in/out of rome. I'm sure it's a long shot as it will only be the NLDS. Hopefully the phils get the dbags...then I won't feel like I'm missing anything
  • The FixerThe Fixer Posts: 12,837
    phils are -190 to win the pennant. next best odds are atlanta at +250.

    +130 to win the WS...boston next at +200

    Fucking insane. Worst part is that barring injuries these odds are only going to get worse (for those that want to take the phils).
