    :sigh:

    You are the wind beneath my wings. :mrgreen:
    Well it looks like I will be rooting for the Phils for the first time (and hopefully last time) in my life. Any recommendations?

    As in which players? Ya gotta go Senor Octubre - Carlos Ruiz.

    Go Carlos...

    Have you hit the worst combination yet? One where you have to root for the Mets?

    Eh, there's worse combos in the world of sports. Like when the Giants and Pats were in the Super Bowl. I actually rooted for the G-men because I knew just how much more obnoxious the condescending Boston fans would have become. That would have been leaps and bounds worse than the Giants winning. Actually, I was hoping for a tidal wave of AIDS to dump on top of that stadium.

    Oh, and hey, Metsfan - couple of things.... Those season from '99-09, 8 of those 11 seasons the Mets finished BEHIND the Phils. Oh, and here's the biggest stat in there as well -

    '99-'09 Phils World Championships - 1(with a possible 2nd TBA)
    '99-'09 Mets World Series Championshhips - ZERO

    Thanks for playing, guy! ;)

    funny how you add in the 3 good years to the mix when are talking bout 99-07, :lol::lol: . bottom line is both teams did shit up until the 06 and 07 season. again having a winning season and not making the playoffs means shit to me personally. if that's how you are as a fan than i feel bad for you. you play to win the world series not go 95-67 and not make the playoffs and say hey that's a good season. look at the braves of the 90's. winning the division 14 straight years and only winning the world series once in that run. again thats great but bottom line is those braves season mean nothing without a ring.
    i'm sure we have some lovely parting gifts for him somewhere around here... :lol:
    cheesesteaks and sam adams will do just fine, lol.

    jeez, if you only settle for a championship, then boy do i feel bad for you! 1986 was a looooong ways ago little buddy. :mrgreen:

    of course nobody settles for just a winning season. but an even somewhat intelligent person can also tell you that winning 86 games or so on average for the years you mentioned does not mean you sucked either. :roll:
    i only do settle for a championship cause that's what matters the most. people hate the yankees cause they have 26 world championships not cause they finish with an above .500 record .winning 86 games means nothing to me. i could dig up how times both the phils and mets have finished above .500 but the glaring fact is did they win the world series in those years or did they choke in the playoffs or not even make them. you think those phillies players are gonna be happy if they lose to the dogers in nlcs or to the yankees in the world series and call it a good season, fuck no.

    That was sick. Just sick. I guess Rollins is out of his post season slump.

  • These guys are unbelievable. I knew Rollins was going to get a hit there. I can't believe it's actually gotten to the point where I expect the Phillies to get a hit when they need it and they always do! I almost have completely forgotten about the Terry Francona years.

  • These TBS announcers (who suck for other reasons) haven't mentioned much if anything about Harry during this postseason. You'd think they'd throw out some generic (but nice to hear) line like "Harry Kalas is somewhere smiling" when the stadium gets rocking.

    if vin scully had died earlier in the year, they'd be all over that. :roll:

    comcast just played the postgame show's guy's reaction to rollins' hit....pretty funny. bottalico was going nuts, barkan just kept saying "NO WAY!" and dutch was intently watching his monitor.

    What a fucking game. I standing on top of the railing pumping my fist staring at Eckersley - he just looked at me and was laughing his ass off. My seats were directly in front of that boom camera. The camera guy told me I better not hang from the boom. Incredible fucking night - I think I've just stopped hyperventilating.

    Work is going to be BRUTAL today.

    If I was a Philadelphia native, I'd just ignore his comments. Many sports columnists write pointless things like that. I'm sure if he was harassed by some of the people, he'd write another pointless article. I have no idea what he has against the Phanatic though, he's always been entertaining at games I've been too.
