    Beach Boys coming to Camden in June. I'll be in DC for the Yanks that weekend but I'll most likely take the ma dukes to see them in Raleigh. Fucking a, the beach boys are great.

    In unrelated news, I really hope the Phils make a legit push for this Soler kid out of Cuba. Like him a lot more than that douche Cespedes - at least his value will be more worth it.

    I love how the Phillies talk is unrelated news in here. Rumors last night that the Phillies and Yankees are most interested. Rosenthal compared his power to Stanton but said he may not be an outfielder long term.

    I just got tickets to two of the Business Person's specials, May 15 and July 25

    I love leaving work early, heading to the park, drinking beer and watching baseball, when I should normally be working :D

    Go Phils!

    In his dreams. :lol: I like a few of their songs but I don't get the Pet Sounds thing - Rubber Soul & Revolver stomp all over it.

    Might think about going, but no way am I going to that shithole in Camden. (unless our boys go there - god I hope not)

    if the phils get him, they will have to pay about 12 million more than they've ever paid for one of these foriegners.

    it's crazy the money that teams spend on these kids...

    that's how i feel about camden as well. i would almost rather travel to see PJ than to head to Camden again. I hope they never play there again...but i'm 99% sure their next local show(s) will be there.

    this stinks....pushes that nail in newspaper's coffin's just a little further

    http://www.the700level.com/baseball-phi ... eedID=8976

    be interesting to see how it shakes out. imo, one good thing about the inquirer and daily news is it's beat writer's for all teams (sixers now not so much after kate fagan left).

    but gelb and murphy both do great jobs on the phils beat. looks like only one will survive this thing...

    that is a shame but the Daily News sucks anymore, I haven't bought in weeks. I prefer the Inquirer.

    Agreed.

    And Murphy is a decent writer, but a huge douche. I hope they can his ass and keep Gelb.

    agree with both of you. i think appearing on that daily news live show so much has gotten to murphy's head. it's like he thinks he's some kind of big star.

    Jorge Soler shirsey is on order. C'mon Rube, reel him in. Once he's available that is.

    I have heard Gelb is a really good dude. Xavier from the Yanks thread knew him when he was on the Yanks beat and says he was a really good guy.

    I hear it's getting expensive. George King said he's being treated like "whiskey on the eve of prohibition". $30 mil is a lot for at least 1 year in the minors. Sounds like the Yanks may be backing off.

    Yeah, he seems rational and smart - what this city needs - like Murphy, but without the pompous, condescending, pretentiousness.

    Yeah, I hate beat writers who are pricks for no real reason. Pete Abe who covered the Yanks and now writes for the Boston Globe is a great reporter, very accessible, good writer but a huge prick.

    just checked it out. looks like he's a bit of a hipster doofus to go along with all the self important doucheyness.

    that is not the best combination to possess.

    Assume this is it. Didn't read much but this post caught my eye and I thought it was pretty good.

    I'll give him that article. Not bad at all.

    But the reason I was directed to that site was through this crossing broad article - http://www.crossingbroad.com/2011/11/ph ... eague.html

    Fuckin' McFadden's.....It's funny, he got into some kind of "twitter war"(is what the kids call it) with some other douche and he got called out for trying to nail Amy Fadool, but she kicked him outta the cab.
