2009 Season - Defending WS Champion Philadelphia Phillies Thread

[spoon]

He's so lanky but so fast.

[Da Fish]

TIE GAME:thumbup:

[HBox]

Every single game this series the umps have made at least one horrible call that had greatly impacted the game and tonight's is the worst. This game shouldn't be tied.

[Recyclerz]

I think I just heard a shout of pain and anguish coming from the Upper East Side of Manhattan.

[epo]

I'm sorry but God Bless America is NOT the traditional 7th inning stretch song:furious:

This God Bless America aggression must stop!

[led37zep]

I think I just heard a shout of pain and anguish coming from the Upper East Side of Manhattan.


I hope Ronnies Dad isn't watching this

[Friday]

This God Bless America aggression must stop!

especially when the person singing is god awful.


this game is too good.
i need to sleep, dammat!

[spoon]

Every single game this series the umps have made at least one horrible call that had greatly impacted the game and tonight's is the worst. This game shouldn't be tied.

I just started watching (Avs win just ended), what happened now!?

[Da Fish]

This God Bless America aggression must stop!

I'm traditionalist. Take me out to the ballgame is the 7th inning stretch song. Always have, always will be.

[spoon]

I'd love to see a rundown/study evaluating the ratio of end of the world movies linked to political parties in the office of president. It's unreal how many have been out there since W has been in power (I mean Cheney).

[TheMojoPin]

This God Bless America aggression must stop!

Dude, that shit is played the fuck out. The stretch shouldn't be such a somber bummer.

[spoon]

I think I just heard a shout of pain and anguish coming from the Upper East Side of Manhattan.

Outside of me, my whole family are Philly fans so that could have been coming from NE PA too.

[spoon]

Dude, that shit is played the fuck out. The stretch shouldn't be such a somber bummer.

I agree, but YMCA tied in is even worse!

[HBox]

I just started watching (Avs win just ended), what happened now!?

I was talking about back in the 7th when Crawford bunted and was clearly out. He ended up scoring and the Rays picked up a free run.

[TheMojoPin]

I agree, but YMCA tied in is even worse!

True. And any Neil Diamond playing should be grounds for a beating.

[TheMojoPin]

I was talking about back in the 7th when Crawford bunted and was clearly out. He ended up scoring and the Rays picked up a free run.

Eh, it happens. The ump happened to be in THE worst spot for that play and couldn't see when the ball in Howard's bare hand. He basically had to guess in a split second based on how fast the runner was going and the throw as to where Howard's hand was. That's baseball. In the end, the guy has to get all the way around from 1st to score, so it's not like that play was a gimme that cheaped in a run.

[Friday]

True. And any Neil Diamond playing should be grounds for a beating.

Neil Diamond is wonderful.
You take that back! :tongue:

[TheMojoPin]

Neil Diamond is wonderful.
You take that back! :tongue:

At baseball games? SO dumb. Then again, I'm a cranky old coot who hates pop music in ballparks except for a player's intro music.

[Da Fish]

nice pickoff

[TheGameHHH]

nice pickoff

how.......HOW do you get picked off in the bottom of the 8th of a tied World Series game?

[TheMojoPin]

Phuckin' Phillies.

Don't lose to the AL...especially not a goddamn expansion team that has been pure, hot garbage every year of its existence except for this one.

[spoon]

I was talking about back in the 7th when Crawford bunted and was clearly out. He ended up scoring and the Rays picked up a free run.

Thanks, they replayed it and yes it was a bad call. Would that have resulted in no runs being plated, or just one? Give me some context for the inning overall. Bottom line, it was a close call, but yes a WS crew should get it right. However, it's still tied and anyone's game. If the Phils win this one, they have this thing wrapped up. That's for you Ronnie B!

[Da Fish]

Phuckin' Phillies.

Don't lose to the AL...especially not a goddamn expansion team that has been pure, hot garbage every year of its existence except for this one.

Blame the former ownership for that. They have really turned this team around and not just by personal. That stadium looks A LOT better than it used to.

[spoon]

wow

[Da Fish]

If the Phillies fuck this up now...Its fate.

[spoon]

wrap this one up

[spoon]

walk em loaded?

[TheMojoPin]

Do this, fools.

[spoon]

where's price? I would think a strikeout pitcher is the best shot here.

[TheGameHHH]

walk em loaded?

i think u have to

EDIT: Wow, a 5 man infield.....interesting

[Da Fish]

hidden ball trick???:wink:

[Da Fish]

FUCK:furious:

[TheMojoPin]

Yessssssssssssssssssssss!

Hah, that shovel was just ridiculous.

[PapaBear]

Wow! I really need to get into baseball. This shit can get exciting!

[TheMojoPin]

FUCK:furious:

Wait, you're rooting for the AL team that's also the rival baseball team in your state?

What the fudge.

[spoon]

I'm pretty sure he had time to get the runner out too with a good throw. That was a retarded throw.

[Da Fish]

Wait, you're rooting for the AL team that's also the rival baseball team in your state?

What the fudge.

1. Phillies are rivals of the Fish
2. I spend a lot of time in Tampa when ever I'm in Florida. I have followed them for a little while.

[TheMojoPin]

1. Phillies are rivals of the Fish

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Come on, man! Stick with your league!

[TheMojoPin]

I'm pretty sure he had time to get the runner out too with a good throw. That was a retarded throw.

Yeah, I thought they had him.

[Da Fish]

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Come on, man! Stick with your league!

Us Marlin fans CAN'T root for the Phils.

[spoon]

Us Marlin fans CAN'T root for the Phils.

I'm with you here. I don't hate any team in the WS this time, but I refuse to root for a team in my division even if it isn't one of the big two. I pretty much go the other way and almost NEVER root for my team's league. I'd rather see a team on the other side of the fence win versus one in my back yard that I often face.

[led37zep]

Go Phills. I'll root for any NL team that isn't the Dodgers.

[K.C.]

What a fantastic game!

Carlos Ruiz is the WS MVP for the Phils up to this point.

Tomorrow is huge. Sonnastine vs. Blanton has to be pretty much a toss-up (Sonnastine's a little bit better, but the Phillies are unbeaten at home in the playoffs).

If the Phils get that one, they'll have a shot to close it out with Hamels without going back to Tampa.

[King Hippos Bandaid]

Phillies in 5, the trends say soo


damn u Phillies, congrats

[K.C.]

Pitching coaches around the league should pull the tape of tonight's game and teacher a seminar to their staffs on it.

Jamie Moyer employed some of the best pitching psychology I've ever seen in tonight's game.

He's always been very good at that. But he was extra good tonight.

I mean, make no mistake...Moyer's 'stuff' is absolute garbage, if you rate it on the Scout scale.

He has about the worst fastball you can have and be a Major League starter. His changeup was great once upon a time. It's diminished slightly.

But this guy calls an amazing game. He made guys like Iwamura and Pena look foolish at the plate.

[spoon]

There is definitely a shot for this to happen, but I'm sticking to my Phils in 6 stance. I think the Phils will lose one of the next two, probably tomorrow as Blanton is up and down at best.

[TheMojoPin]

I'm with you here. I don't hate any team in the WS this time, but I refuse to root for a team in my division even if it isn't one of the big two. I pretty much go the other way and almost NEVER root for my team's league. I'd rather see a team on the other side of the fence win versus one in my back yard that I often face.

I only don't root for a team from my divsion if there's a hardcore rivalry, so I'd NEVER root for the Cardinals. Other than that...meh...there's no real drawn out history. I'd root for the Reds, Pirates or Brewers over the AL team always. I do really hate the Astros mostly due to their cheesy ballpark, but I had to default root for them in 2005 because they were playing the White Sox.

So, yeah, the Marlins and Phillies are technically in the same division, but is there any REAL rivalry between the teams a la the Phils and the Mets? Plus, the Rays and Marlins are supposed to be rivals, too.

[K.C.]

So, yeah, the Marlins and Phillies are technically in the same division, but is there any REAL rivalry between the teams a la the Phils and the Mets? Plus, the Rays and Marlins are supposed to be rivals, too.

The NL East these days is basically tantamount to everyone hates the Mets.

After that, there may be a little bit of juice for something like Phils/Braves, but not much else.

I can't say I really hate the Marlins (except for Scott Olsen). And I was hoping they'd win in '97 and '03.

[TheMojoPin]

I think the only NL teams I would NEVER root for would be the Mets and the Cardinals. Everyone else...smash the AL with gusto, please.

[zildjian361]

No Pinstripes, No problems, no watch. but the backstreet boys was the shit:wink:

pretty much everything is going right for the Sillies, you can already feel that theyve won the Series.

This could be the sadest week in my life.

Bad weekend for me to friend. Buckeyes=loss, Rays=loss, Bengals=loss(shocking). I may give up on sports.

[cougarjake13]

Blanton reminds me of the Sta Puft Marshmallow Man from Ghostbusters.


http://www.16bit.com/toypics/ghostbusters/marshmallow/front.jpg


add goatee and viola! #4 in our rotation!

GO PHILS!!!

[scottinnj]

Navarro has a lightning arm to second base. This guy is murder against us when we steal.

[cougarjake13]

congrats philly on finally winning a championship

[scottinnj]

What? What'd I say?

[scottinnj]

It looked like his glove was right in his a......

It's a wash now for that blown call at first last night with Upton.

[epo]

Blanton?

PITCHER HITS A HOMER!!!!

[TheMojoPin]

Good for the Phillies, but what a band box.

[scottinnj]

Blanton?

Yep, and we still don't have pics of him in Phillies uniform, hence the Sta Puft Marshmallow Man.

[scottinnj]

I feel so much better tonight. Last night my Phils made me feel like I had stomach cancer.

[cougarjake13]

time to change the thread title

congrats on the 08 world series title

[epo]

I feel so much better tonight. Last night my Phils made me feel like I had stomach cancer.

It's the World Series. Soak it all in.

[biozombie]

heh, Blanton's little picture on sports.yahoo.com still has him with an Oakland hat.

I love this team. I hate this team for what it does to me, but I love this team.

Phils, do or die.

[scottinnj]

maybe its sweat or dirt but whats that on his brim of his hat that he touches before each pitch ??

graham crackers and melted chocolate.

[scottinnj]

heh, Blanton's little picture on sports.yahoo.com still has him with an Oakland hat.

Another reason Philly fans disdain the national media. A player goes to the Phillies, and they treat him like he fell into a black hole.

[cougarjake13]

heh, Blanton's little picture on sports.yahoo.com still has him with an Oakland hat.

they do that with a lot of players in all sports

its like theyre too lazy to change it


it would take what 2 minutes to change ??

[biozombie]

eh, I remember seeing things like that on baseball cards from time to time when I was a kid, I guess they still only take pictures at the beginning (or before) the season.

[biozombie]

Anyone know if those subway cheesesteaks come without?

[scottinnj]

Blanton's gone over 90 pitches. Do we keep him in the 7th?

Zobrist is a switch hitter, and Bartlett bats right.

Bring in Durbin?

[TheMojoPin]

Joe-fuckin'-Blanton.

Baseball is nuts.

I love it.

[KnoxHarrington]

Anyone know if those subway cheesesteaks come without?

I can only imagine the blank stares I'd get if I went into a Subway here and ordered one of those with.

"With what?"

"With."

[scottinnj]

Can someone tell the plate ump to chill out with the strike calls?

[KnoxHarrington]

While I did only hear about ten seconds of it with people talking over it, damn, did the Who just sound like a mess in that concert.

[scottinnj]

Another blown call at first. At best it was a tie, in which case, runner is safe.

[scottinnj]

While I did only hear about ten seconds of it with people talking over it, damn, did the Who just sound like a mess in that concert.

I don't know, I was absolutely crying when I saw it.

Liger loger!

[scottinnj]

Phanatic = best mascot EVAH!

[TheMojoPin]

Kill all mascots.

GO EYRE!

But but, eyre has been a mascot for about 6 different teams now ..... and that list includes both of our teams.

[scottinnj]

i don't want to be a jinxy mcjinx...but i think ronnie is having a nice night.



I killed the Jinx, stabbed him right in the heart. Buried him in the back yard next to the Noid.

[scottinnj]

Madson's thrown it as fast as 97 MPH this Series. He is puuuuurrrrre evil.

[KnoxHarrington]

Isn't it time to get back to "Take Me Out to the Ballgame"?

[epo]

Isn't it time to get back to "Take Me Out to the Ballgame"?

I know where Bud's office is. Should I pay him a visit to discuss? Honestly, we've all suffered enough!

[scottinnj]

We've been good with Longoria all night, but he scares the crap outta me with these long balls he hits in a hitter's park.

[spoon]

Unless the Phils still have Mitch, this one is done!

[biozombie]

This has not been a bad night so far, not at all.

[scottinnj]

We Are Now Immune From The Grand-slam!

[spoon]

This has not been a bad night so far, not at all.

It has been a bad night for all 72 Ray fans.

[scottinnj]

I do find it disturbing that Fox insists on cramming 1000 commericials into each game.
Even between batters, they won't go to commercial, but will show a shot of the park and run logos of the sponsors.

Between that and Joe Buck, it really takes away from the flow of the game.

[scottinnj]

I'm going to Subway!

[TheMojoPin]

Suck it, Gays.

Did you see what I did there?

[Tenbatsuzen]

This has not been a bad night so far, not at all.

[spoon]

Suck it, Gays.

Did you see what I did there?

You were talking to the guys at your house?

[spoon]

I'm just surprised Kevin and Bossanova came all the way to Chitown to watch this game.

[TheMojoPin]

You were talking to the guys at your house?

Hells yes. I didn't put up this spread for free.

[scottinnj]

Hells yes. I didn't put up this spread for free.

If that's all it takes, I'm calling the caterer tomorrow night, and you're all invited.

I'd be taking the BSL down to the G or 7 bus & hitting up Tony Lukes if I still lived in Philly.

[TheMojoPin]

Finish this, scumbags!

Not only will the NL win, but it's always much cooler when a team wins at home.

[PerryWinkle]

All I have to say is tonight was not too bad.



One more and the city will totally go crazy

effin' A!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!..one more!! philly will be nuts tomorrow night!! i might just go to mcfaddens or chickie and petes!!:clap:

They won't let you into McFadden's without a World Series ticket.

There was a guy standing outside of it when I was walking into the stadium tonight screaming through a bullhorn "I CANNOT BE BRIBED TO LET YOU IN! YOU NEED A TICKET!"

They're playing the games on the big screen where the band plays during the block party. I might watch it there tomorrow night.

Sadly, I cannot find a ticket.

But tonight was the most fun I've ever had at a baseball game. Unfuckingbelievable.

Joe Blanton is god.

Me, too.

Best game ever.

[KingGeno]

I noticed the crowd and the dugout was content and holding back from freakin' out. Later in the game it was hard to do it, but it is almost like a dream or just waiting for God to bring the thunder down on us. Whatev.

I thought Eva was gonna cry at the end of the game. He is pathetic this series.

Also, that there shift on Utley won't work if they can't field.

Oh, ya know how earlier in the thread I complained about my old rich bitch friend? She ended up getting a chance to go to the game on Saturday. Her mommy dearest bought her tickets to the game, Section 110, Row1, four seats for her hippie worthless boyfriend from New York. They ended up leaving early, because she was cold and tired. Makes me sick. She left the game early last night too, because her "limo" back to Manhattan from the Bank was arriving. lolz. Not really a friend anymore.

congrats

like I said in the WS Thread

Phily would win in 5, if they won one game in Tampa



way to win a World Series while Football is on, I hope the rating are not White Sox -Astros bad

[Bossanova]

So, it looks like Rays in 7 now. Thanks Hippo, I was really sweating the Phils winning.

[Snoogans]

[King Hippos Bandaid]

that would rock

but no, World Series have become lame 4 or 5 games win it all now recently


I dont like the 2-3-2

2-2-1-1-1 is better


If the Phillies blow it, Id bring the National Guard in, this will GET UGLY

[skyscraper]

they'll need the national guard win or lose tonight, so might as well start mobilizing them now.

[KingGeno]

Yup. They need some sort of presence. I mean, Steve Bucci from comcast Sportsnet was almost ripped to shreds on live TV after the Game 3 win.

[King Hippos Bandaid]

Philly is gonna do there best Detroit impersonation


FOR THE LOVE OF GOD PEOPLE, DO NOT GO NEAR THE CHEESESTEAK STANDS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


you can destroy the rest of that shithole

2 2 1 1 1 is only good for hockey and bassketball. It makes no sense in baseball, cause you play 2-4 games at a time in each place. Its not the same as hockey or basketball.

[Da Fish]

So, yeah, the Marlins and Phillies are technically in the same division, but is there any REAL rivalry between the teams a la the Phils and the Mets? Plus, the Rays and Marlins are supposed to be rivals, too.

Phils/Marlins rivalry is nowhere near the Marlins/Mets rivalry. We Fucking hate those assholes.:furious:

Most Miami professional sport fans Hate New York teams and I'm no different.

[KingGeno]

Phils/Marlins rivalry is nowhere near the Marlins/Mets rivalry. We Fucking hate those assholes.:furious:

We hate both you asshole fuck teams. So there. :furious:

I have a moral conundrum for tonight.

Go into the city and watch the game with my friends, few blocks up from Broad Street.

OR

Watch the game with my fam, but specially my father whom I've always shared baseball with my whole life.

[Snoogans]

Post your joy here

[K.C.]

Pay no attention to Snoogans' attempt to invoke jinxes.

He's bitter that we crushed his Manny-led Dodgers.

[IMSlacker]

locky?

[Snoogans]

if you mean the phillies winning, sure, lock it up

[Snoogans]

Pay no attention to Snoogans' attempt to invoke jinxes.

MITCH WILLIAMS

[KingGeno]

Yea, it's old and not funny.

[Snoogans]

but it upsets you still. FUCK THE DODGERS.

[KingGeno]

but it upsets you still. FUCK THE DODGERS.

You assume so. It's nothing actually.

[boobieman]

God Damn JINNNXXXXXXERS


I cover your eyes..ALL of YA.


SEYEYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

[Snoogans]

You assume so. It's nothing actually.

to you maybe. just randomly say it to groups of phillies fans. OH BOY do you get reactions

[skyscraper]

fuck all of you fuckheads and the fucking fuckhorses you fucking rode into fucking town on!

[Bossanova]

Mitch Williams stings as much as Bill Buckner used to

[Snoogans]

Thats The Kinda Joy I Was Hoping For. Keep It Goin Philly

[Bossanova]

Yes! Congrats to all the Phillies fans. You guys deserve this. Its been such a long fucking time coming. Start planning the parade aready?

[K.C.]

Mitch Williams stings as much as Bill Buckner used to

No it doesn't.

The Phillies were down 3-2 in that series, Toronto was clearly the better team, and the Phillies would have had to win two at the Skydome to win.

AND, everyone knew Mitch Williams had nothing left. Real Phillies fans are more pissed at Jim Fregosi for even using him in that spot, when Mitch basically told the media he had nothing.


I like the '93 Phillies a lot, but that was as 'lightning in a bottle' as a team can get.


The Red Sox should have won the '86 series. That hurts way more.

[King Hippos Bandaid]

President Dewey approves of this thread

[Bossanova]

No it doesn't.

Yeah, that was a Met fan sticking it to a Redsox fan. Its not all about the Phillies sir

[Snoogans]

suck a cock, mcnabb. you have no right to stick anything to anyone

[TheGameHHH]

We hate both you asshole fuck teams. So there. :furious:

I have a moral conundrum for tonight.

Go into the city and watch the game with my friends, few blocks up from Broad Street.

OR

Watch the game with my fam, but specially my father whom I've always shared baseball with my whole life.

is your dad a phillies fan? if he is this isnt even a question, spend the night with pops. it will something special you can always cherish. you can get drunk with friends on broad street most any night.

[KingGeno]

Yea, I made the decision to watch it with my pops. It's gonna excite me more seeing my father excited than being excited myself. I wanted to anyway, just was sorta speaking my thoughts out loud.

[K.C.]

then it looks like chickies and petes!! ..btw..is blanton signed for next year??

I'll be at the stadium, hopefully watching it in the parking lot, or at the block party outside the gate if they have it on there.




Me and my pops went to the game last night, but we don't really watch them on TV together. He hates any Phillies pitcher that starts a batter 1-0, and won't stop complaining the entire at bat.

After a while, I just can't take it.

seriously.

philly fans have proven their classlessness time and time again.

dirty savages (http://www.scoresreport.com/2008/10/27/here%E2%80%99s-a-shock-%E2%80%93-philly-fans-not-being-good-hosts/)

[biozombie]

fuck that kid, he got what was comin' to him.

[ChimneyFish]

Children were cursed at, and one 9-year-old boy had beer poured on him. A Rays family member stayed locked in a bathroom stall because, he said, Phillies fans were banging on the walls and threatening him.



I'm sorry, but I laughed my face off at this.

Fucking classic.

[disneyspy]

end of 3,philly still up 2 zip

Yup, Phillie.

Yeah. And they have a cake ready shaped like Michael Irvin's broken neck.

[Friday]

Yup, trash for fans.

fixies!

[biozombie]

I still don't think there's anything wrong with pelting Santa Claus with snowballs and / or batteries.

[brettmojo]

fixies!
Well that's a given.

[joeyballsack]

Hamels just broke his finger and this game is going to last all night because of the rain.

The Philly jinx may continue!

[IamFogHat]

On one hand I want to say everyone is being good boys and girls as non jinxies, but on the other hand, where the fuck are the baseball fans? This potential series ending thread is like a page long? Post motherfuckers! (in non jinx manners)

[cougarjake13]

a lil presumptious to call it the world champions thread already

theres a few innings left

[IamFogHat]

Anyone who has kids who play baseball, encourage them to be catchers, the fucking insight you gain from that position transmitted to watching a game of baseball from this TV angle is fucking immense. I destroyed a hand doing it but it made me love watching the game immensely.

[brettmojo]

Kazmir battled, can't really pin this on him if they lose.

[disneyspy]

start playin QUEENs WE ARE THE CHAMPIONS
POP THAT CHAMPAIGNE!
RIOT PHILLY!
BANG THAT LIBERTY BELL

[Friday]

Kazmir battled, can't really pin this on him if they lose.

not at all... he did well... and got through a couple of shitty calls from the blind, elderly refs.

[joeyballsack]

Tampas defense has not been stellar behind the pitchers either.

It looks miserable in that stadium tonight.

[OGC]

How much of a stink will there be if the umps stop the game due to rain and they are never able to resume play and it ends up 2 - 1 Philly ?

How many fans would stick around waiting for 3 hours in the rain, and then start celebrating when the PA announcer declares the Phillies world Champions due to the game being called for rain.

[IamFogHat]

Makin' em swing at that high shit...dammit.

would they do that in a world series game ??

i'd have to think they'd suspend it and play it tommorrow or something

you cant have a championship decided on an incomplete game

[disneyspy]

poor fez,benny's gonna rag him unmercifully bout his rays loosin to his phillies tommorow

They haven't played enough innings so don't worry you silly goose.

[cougarjake13]

and now that the inning is over its an official game

[disneyspy]

end o 5
phillies blowin out da rays 2 to 1

[Friday]

i wonder how many Rays family members have been mustarded tonight....

[biozombie]

Mustard is much better than beer, cheaper too.

[cougarjake13]

i wonder how many Rays family members have been mustarded tonight....

35 1/2

[OGC]

I believe it needs to be 5 innings to be official or 4 1/2 innings if the home team is winning.

Either way, it is official now.

[IamFogHat]

Of course they'll take another commercial break, why wouldn't they stretch out the anxiety of Ronnie B?

[cougarjake13]

5 innings

[IamFogHat]

edit: this is a wrong thread post
Steeerighk two!! What a beautiful pitch!
Pre edit: goddamn boot.

[joeyballsack]

At least the rain might keep the fans from rioting if the win this game.

[OGC]

5 innings


Why would the home team need to bat in the 5th if they were winning ? Just like they don't need to bat in the bottom of the 9th if they are winning.

[KnoxHarrington]

5 innings

Driving home just now, I tuned in to WIP on my iPhone, and they had a guy on who said that the normal rules about a game being official don't apply in the playoffs. The game would not be called; it might be suspended until tomorrow, but unless the weather tuns far worse than it is, they're not calling it. We might be here a while.

[pussyseeker]

you jinxie bastard

[cougarjake13]

no you're right if they're winning no need

but if tied they both need to bat for it to be a suspended game and not a cancelled game

[cougarjake13]

so much for that anyway

its tied now

[cougarjake13]

pena and upton !!!!!!!!!!!


the rain and shitty field conditions may force you philly fans to watch them celebrate the championship in st pete

[TheMojoPin]

Who wants soup?!?

If Hippo's insane jinxiness was somehow going to damn the Phillies, this certainly would be one way to do it.

[disneyspy]

philly phucked,GAME OFF

[joeyballsack]

Tie game, huge base hit for Pena. Now they might have a problem finishing this game now.

[joeyballsack]

Oops, double post.

Sorry.

[OGC]

The Rays made it easy for them to call for the delay by tying it.

[disneyspy]

you jinxie bastard

OH HI CRAAAAAAAAAAAAZED

"God hates the city of Philadelphia." - Bennington

Fixed.

I'm looking at John Bolaris.

[biozombie]

just when I didn't think shit could get worse, they're running TMZ, at least my local fox station is.

I know it means nothing now that the game is tied, but the guy who said the rules for a game being official are different in the playoffs is wrong. It can only be "suspended" if the score is tied, in which case it is resumed at another time where play was suspended. They would not "suspend" a game if one team is winning. If it couldn't be resumed that night, the team that is leading when the rain delay is called would be the winner.

I know this is so 'cuz Tim McCarver just said so. :unsure:

[Tenbatsuzen]

When John Bolaris has the lead story on Fox, that's never good.

BTW, I'm not sure who I hate more on Fox. Bolaris or the guy who looks like Napoleon Dynamite.

[cougarjake13]

The Rays made it easy for them to call for the delay by tying it.



it had a very wwe-ish twinge to it

almost like they were gonna keep going until either tampa bay tied it or the phils went up big

[biozombie]

yeah, Fuck Bolaris. I don't miss that smug faggot one bit.

[ChimneyFish]

I blame this man.

Worst.


Jinx.


Ever.

[King Hippos Bandaid]

wimps, play in the rain

[scottinnj]

Someone go to Bud Selig's house and bust his basement's water main. Then he'll see what a "rain delay" actually is.

Worst.



Jinx.


Ever.

[RingWraith]

They can't. Water drops are very scary! Especially when they invade from the heavens.:dry:
