    Oh man, in all of our movie talk, how did this comedy get overlooked? Just unacceptable.

    Seriously. Used to watch this 24/7.

    Ken Burns on CSN. Can't wait for "The 10th Inning".

    i heard him on the radio this morning. when does it come out? that man is briliant.

    you know what's gonna lead off the 10th inning right?............those crafty '93 Phils who captured the American psche back in a simpler time....:mrgreen:

    Apparently, now Oswalt is telling friends he can't wait to get out of Houston and that teams don't necessarily need to pick up his option.

    Man, between this, the fact that an NL scout is saying the Phils are the most active team right now on the trade market, prospects are pretty much agreed upon with Houston, Wade in Lakewood, Oswalt pitches Friday, Phils need someone for Saturday I think, deadline is Saturday - I really think something might happen. And I'm gonna say tomorrow since Oswalt doesn't want to wait until the deadline to find out.

    DVD comes out at the end of September. Yeah, he said Philly fans will like it a lot with '08 and all, but we might not so much like the ending...

    see this is why people just need to chill and see how everything pans out. so much misinformation gets tossed around.

    i still think we're getting him. and i think we may be able to do it without the option.........UNLESS some team nobody is talking about hops into the middle of everything. but if its just among the dodgers, bravos, cards, and phils----i like our odds. :mrgreen:

    again--ruben's best move was at the deadline last year---make it happen again!

    Jim Salisbury probably knows this team better than anybody, and he's convinced they make a deal. He's saying it's going to be either Oswalt or Carmona, and I'm fine with that either way. Carmona pitches tonight I believe, so look out to see if he starts or not.

    Even in wake of the injuries, tonight's gotta be a great ticket to have. Hopefully it's electric when they announce the lineup, and his first at-bat.

    And it's obvious Amaro's a fucking punk. Gillick being interviewed on CSN pretty much because Ruben was miffed that they would ask questions about Lee last time he was on. What a douche.

    of course I'm going tomorrow night. Brown will probably sit vs saunders. damnit

    how crazy is it that acquiring Lee was only a year ago? Feels like it was 5 years ago

    yeah, carmona is pitching vs yanks. I think he stinks. he'd be an upgrade over kendrick, but I wouldn't give up anything to get him

    this can't be a good sign...from olney


    Heard this: The Phillies' trade for Roy Oswalt that has been discussed is likely to include three or four teams -- if it happens.

    Do you mean prospect-wise, or the fact that a starter in the lineup is gonna go?

    Fixer, Olney just tweeted this - Heard this: A third team that was involved in the Phillies-Oswalt talks has backed out. Philly-Houston now dealing head to head #trades

    Gotta feeling I'm gonna be waking up to something on philly.com in the morning...

    Shame that Shane went on the DL, but this Dom Brown is looking good. Glad that Werth and RAUUUUUUUL are starting to hit and of course Doc pitching doesn't hurt either :D

    I just figured the more teams involved in the trade, the less likely it is of happening.

    Something's gotta happen tonight and be announced tomorrow morning. Oswalt pitches Friday, and I'm sure if anything goes down, Philly will want him in a uniform pitching in Florida instead.
