    It was cool that you actually had to finish in first place to make the playoffs.

    that was cruel...but that was also something unique to baseball back then which was real cool.

    that pennant race with you guys and the braves was a thing of beauty. the entire 2nd half of the season was literally the playoffs.

    i didn't mind the braves back then since that was before the dumb realignment and our nlcs with them. what a fucking series that was. my god. that was phenomenal baseball in those days.

    I have never met a more nostalgic baseball fan than you. If the game could go back to how it was in 1917, The Jeagler would be a happy man.


    i'm guessing chicago wouldn't mind going back to 1908. :lol:

    that could quite possibly be the funniest thing I've ever read on this board. :lol:

    That was the year of Murkle's Boner, right? That term would have a whole different connotation nowadays. :lol:

    Wow. This game is dull.

    pretty boring.

    the kruk ceremony was even weak. best part was seeing kruk and daulton on stage together after they both spoke. same look me and my college buddies have when we get together (which doesn't happen often). during the entire ceremony I was thinking that the current phils were prob thinking...these guys didn't win shit, get them off of our field.

    not sure why manuel took hamels out. pretty dumb. then howard AGAIN (2nd time this week) making the wrong decision on the fair/foul ball was fun (we wont discuss his 9th inning AB).

    back in my baseball gambling days a wise man told me to always bet against a team in their first home game after a road trip of 9 or more games. phils were -270 tonight. yikes.

    boring game to attend. oh well, can't win em all. the hopdevil never disappoints :D

    I think they just bypass this thread. If she read it we'd all would have been banned at some point.

    haha, so true. eagles thread as well.

    they have given up on us. like I said before, we should charge a user fee to read these philly threads

    Wow. This game is dull.

    agreed. only good part of the night was the ceremony.

    had a bad feeling about this one going in. i bet the players hate having those pregame things disrupt their regular routines.

    oh well, get 'em tonight

    I think coming back from a long road trip is a pain in the ass with getting settled back in and all.

    I heard Hunter on XM yesterday talking about how he had to be aggressive to be successful vs Livan. Didn't work so well yesterday I guess.

    Fucking Ibanez and his candy arm. good thing he has good numbers off Lannan so he could kill the rally in the 1st inning too.

    RBI are like mustaches. Cool and useful in the 80s, but outdated in today's world.
