the day vuke got in was the day the wall of fame turned into a list of phillies greats to a list of likable people who hung around for a while

thats why burrell is getting in....the first thing on his plaque should be whatever ridiculous number of olde city skanks he stuck his dick into

[ice grillin you]

lol i just looked at the list....krukie i forgot is on it....jesus

theres also two people on it that i literally have never heard of

[PhillyPhreak54]

Kruk should be on it.

Don't hate

[ice grillin you]

yeah if you like neato stories of chaw steroids and budweisers....he should be on shores WOF not the phillies

It's a wall of fame, not a wall of all-time great baseball players.  It's guys who were important to the franchise on the field, on the bench or whatever.  Stop being miserable fargs all the time and accept it for what it is... inconsequential and mildly entertaining.

Ok...The Havas Wall Of Phillies Fame is...

Who would you have up there?

im not complaining, it is what it is. i have no problem with the WOF being exactly that. just dont act like the guys on there are all awesome, cause they aint.

to suggest vuke or kruk or lieberthal are deserving of some kind of honor beyond "we liked them, they were cool" is insane.

[Rome]

You and Havas are complaining about a wall with plaques on it.  I mean, really.  A. Wall.

complaint

[Rome]

In.

[ice grillin you]

yeah who is complaining?

im laughing at it....its a mockery...I could care less who they put up there

[MDS]

its not an unilaterally positive thing about vuke and his hot wife or kruk and his beer gut so its the worst thing ever

[ice grillin you]

for the record i love kruk....to this day

but putting a good player on a WOF cause he was a goofy clown who could shotgun buds is hilarious to me...and yeah looking at the list it definitely fell off a cliff after vuk...problem it seems is that they automatically put people in it every year...correct?...

at some point (and they reached this a long time go im sure) you are going to run out of worthy people when you've won two titles in 130+ years and have 10000 losses
