Phillies Season Thread 2013

[Don Ho]

Jimmy is an all timer and deserves the respect. The whining by the WIP crowd of how he loafs down the line is a joke. When I'd hear those people the first thing they'd say after how jimmy loafs was "look at Utley...he busts it all the time".

If jimmy ever wears another uniform it will be a goddamn crying shame.

"We're the team to beat"

His MVP year and 2008

Great defense for over a decade

Bow down.

Game 4 at CBP, bottom nine, Broxton.  I can watch that over and over and over.  Third loudest philly sporting cheer I ever let out. 

1. WS game 5 part 2  (years of pent up frustration finally released)

2. 3 way tie -Sixers game 7 against Toronto in 2001 Eastern Semi Finals/Pimp's punt return/BMitch opening kickoff return agaisnt Bucs in NFCCG

3A. JRoll's hit against Broxton

3B. Bums beat Astros in 1980 NLCS

[Don Ho]

Just turned this shtein show on.  3 farging hits?  HA!

Nah Todd hates Jimmy.

i love jimmy, i just dont need to see him play now. or choke. or GRIT. im over them.

i dont worship pro athletes and dont care if they play for another team. i want to win every year and dont give a rats funhole how it gets done or who is a part of it.

except mcnabb. farg that Hoyda.

So according to doc the country club atmosphere cholly allowed needed to change.

Stay tuned ...

[MDS]

its not really anything big....he was there for 9 years, largely managing the same players

after a while, complacency is inevitable. he stopped giving as much of a shtein and so did the players. combine that with a disgusting lack of talent and you get a true blow up this year

[smeags]

yep pretty much. just points out how some players who will state they loved cholly actually helped to get him fired.

oh well ... it's the interim ryno era now.

[Sgt PSN]

Phils signed free agent OF Roger Bernadina, sent Mike Mike back to Lehigh.  Nothing like scraping the bottom of the free agent barrel near the end of August. 

[Rome]

Your feeble ass would be a better choice than Mike Mart.

[Don Ho]

this just in............De Fratus sucks.

Diekman might one day amount to something.

[Don Ho]

3 hits in last 44 at bats with runners in scoring position.  Says it all.

[Don Ho]

Well farg us all, 4 for 45!

[Don Ho]

Double farg me! 5 for 46.  WE WIN!!

Nothing like a walk off win when you're 20 games out in late August.

Shaving creme pie during live interview, please ban immediately.
