    Haha, gotta slim up for that wedding dress of your's? Food's never been my problem; it's the massive amounts of alcohol I consume.

    Hahahahah...yeah. Yeah, both have been my problem. Been cutting out the booze during the week though. Weekends I'm still a disaster though.

    theme is how a festival comes together. focus will probably be on jay z, but still pretty cool

    charlie manuel has to be the worst strategic manager in mlb history. fat ass has to at least get his glove on that errant throw too.

    can't wait for this baseball season to end

    I like this article - http://www.philly.com/philly/sports/phi ... lies_.html

    Gotta figure Sandberg has a handshake deal with the Phils if he went from one AAA team to another. I'm assuming he'll be the bench coach next year and then take over in 2014.

    I turned it off as soon as Dom didn't come up with it but from my only look, it looks like he should've caught it.
    Alright, alright, alright!

    yeah probably should have. he made a great catch earlier in the game. But once again phillies blow another potential win for cliff lee :roll:

    I think I said this to Fixer the other day. I would put good money on him managing the Red Sox next year. Him for Farrell. A wild guess though, but I'd have to think they would be very interested.

    It was a save your ass catch. He over ran it and took a bad angle. He was jumping in to the wall and had to reach back and in to make it. Did you notice the only fan that tried to interfere with that catch was a Phillies fan?

    my favorite part is having a $60 million closer who can't get 4 out saves. great investment :roll:

    he should be their manager now. just hope he doesn't get a head job before they finally rid themselves of manuel

    I didn't notice that, but pretty funny.

    after I saw the replay of the HR I thought he probably should have caught it too. Brown has been much better than he was last year, but he still gets shitty reads and runs awful routes. Like you said, he almost missed that ball down the RF line. His athleticism allowed him to make up for almost making a terrible play. Hopefully he can keep getting better...they are gonna need him next year.

    Can anyone answer why Dom doesn't play center? I thought that was his position in the minors. It would be nice if he drove a couple balls every now and then as well but at least he's out there.

    he started in RF. Then they moved him to LF when they traded for pence. After struggling at both corner spots they moved him to CF for a while. Then they moved him back to RF. Now he's playing both corner spots again.

    They haven't done the best job of handling him IMO. from what little I have seen, I don't think he'd have a prayer in CF

    I still think Brown's best position might just be center. What the hell - just send him out there.
