That last inning last year... Damn. Was so exciting. And then so horrible.

I've been good lately. don't get me started

Oh, I was there, I know.

Don't ever criticize Ryan Howard when it's actually warranted. DON'T EVER DO THAT!! God forbid...

I was there too. Worst sporting event I've ever attended.

he sucked that entire series. 12 K's in 22 ABs. One thing I will never call him is a choker. He has just as many big hits as anyone during this run. I just don't think he's good in general

yup he is no good and this team sucks i imagine if the Phils had gotten shut out 5-0 last night you wouldn't have been talking about restaurants and you would have been trashing them. must kill you when they win. and at the risk of jinxing it and ruining it ryan has been pretty stellar defensively this year and lately especially.

and someone has to bunt down the 1st base line tonight to see if big fat slob papi can field it.

your posts just get worse and worse

still think howard is better than adrian gonzalez?

nope but it ain't two years ago now is it? and i also know we'd never move ryan out of his position to move a fat slob into his place.

and is what i said wrong? be honest if the Phils got shut out 5-0 last night you'd would have been on here about the horrible offense. it's ok we all know it's true there is nothing wrong with admitting it.

the phils can't move howard off of first because he's too inept defensively to even think about playing another position. gonzalez is a great defensive first baseman and athletic enough to handle playing elsewhere in a pinch.

of course you're wrong. like I posted the other day, the results of these regular season games is mostly irrelevant. we all know that this team is going to the playoffs. last year they were upset because of their lineup. this year's lineup is worse than last years version. If you don't see a problem there, well I don't know what to tell you other than you're setting yourself up to be disappointed come october

this rotation can mask a lot of this team's deficiencies. come playoff time they are gonna have to score runs. they haven't proven they can do that consistently.

I hate Ortiz as much as anyone, but Howard can't even think about touching Ortiz numbers this year. So yeah, if the Phillies had to make a decision between Ortiz and Howard, for one game, I am pretty sure they would make sure Ortiz is in the lineup.

you change your argument like the weather. 6 weeks ago they were going to be out of 1st by memorial day (wrong by 5 games) . 2 weeks ago it was they hadn't beaten a good starter and have since beaten 2 of the top 7 from the AL. now the regular season is irrelevant and they are a lock. at least if they don't win the series you can pat yourself on the back like you did with the flyers. if they do win the series this year i'll take you a nice restaurant to eat some crow.

the chances of me sitting down to eat a meal with you are the same as ryan howard hitting 300 in a season

also, work on your reading comprehension.

ryan has already done that in his career

please enlighten me if there is anything i attributed to you in that post that is something you didn't say? i'll wait...........................

yes, he has..back during the one season he had where he was good. I meant chances of doing it again, which are 0%.

I never guaranteed the braves in first thing...I did think they would be in first and I was wrong. It was a prediction. Just like the preseason prediction that I made that the phils would win the division. If you had a pair you would have enlightened us with thoughts on what you expected to happen this season (which would have been high comedy I'm sure).

You're probably just mad that jeff carter and his 13 goals in 47 playoff games are gone. Still don't know how you defended that turd. Your sports track record here is pretty terrible

For the love - who gives a shit? :roll:

Time to roll on Lackey tonight. He got killed by the Padres last week.

My first game with Clifford Lee

i'll be there thursday. Anyone want to go? I might have an extra ticket. My one buddy might not be able to make it. Asked a few other people who i thought would/could make it, but no one yet :roll:

anyone? I'm striking out trying to find someone. Mostly everyone is working :( I bought a 6 game pacakge and could have sworn i got it for last night's game (even requested off awhile back), but about a month ago i double-checked my ticket and it was for tomorrow BSP game :?

I heard The Champ, Bernard Hopkins addressed the team earlier today, should be good for the Fightens tonight, and I'm going, though I wish I was there last night with Lee, fans sounded loud last night and heard it was an awesome atmosphere, did the Philly fans actually outnumber the nation last night?

"the nation" :roll: Don't bring that shit into this thread.

Hallelujah.
