    Cliff Lee was like Bugs Bunny in that cartoon tonight. Stud.

    Utley almost cost them the game there. He looked like he was drunk trying to turn that DP

    This is cool - about how Clifton pitches much better against good teams than bad teams. Guess he gets bored. Murphy does a really good job on that blog.

    I just want to understand this thread a bit better. So, you're a troll who doesn't like the Phillies right? And The Fixer is an overly critical fan who borders on being troll-like but really just wants the best for the team. Is this correct?

    He's still trying to justify somehow being happy to not have Cliff Lee, or something like that.

    A couple of us troll the Yankees thread, so it's all good. 8-)

    We presume Fixer wants the best for the Phils, but sometimes we wonder...

    Lets get something straight - New York Yankee Fan Boy over here would be gargling Lee's hairy testicles if he was a Yankee. It would be more obnoxious than anything in this thread. Please refer to anything from 2010 till he signed with the Phils. EVERY bandwagon Yanks fan on this blue Earth thought he was going to sign with them once he was at the least a free agent. And now since Cliff threw the big ol' middle finger at them (how dare you not come to New Yawk :roll: ) they're gonna pretend like they never wanted him. Right. Please.

    I wanted Cliff Lee as bad as anyone, let's be honest, dudes a good pitcher and has a great name. Would have fit right in perfectly and the Yanks would be favorites to win this year. That said, I don't think it's the worst thing in the world that the Yankees didn't get him. Dude is going to get paid an obscene amount of money in his late 30's and the Yankees already have a pitcher that will be getting up there in age at the same time and making the same amount of money. Not sure it would make a lot of sense to have CC and Lee at 35-37 making close to $50 million combined.

    That said, I honestly think Cliff Lee isn't the sharpest tool in the shed. Taking less money, saying the Yankees are aging when the team he signed with is the oldest in the game, then the article comes out that says he has read something like 1 book in his life. It's all starting to come together, the dude seems to be a lot like Forrest Gump. More power to the guy, he's just a tad slow.
