BigEd76

yea, just seeing how different other people's lists are

and you don't think Doc's perfect game was worthy of the top 10?

ice grillin you

not for me personally...it was done by a first year phil who they traded for so i really have no connection to the player...it happened early in the year in an empty stadium and in the whole scheme of things didnt win anything important or mean that much

it was cool and all because it happened to the phils but other than that didnt do much for me

Zero hour, Michael. It's the end of the line. I'm the firstborn. I'm sick of playing second fiddle. I'm always third in line for everything. I'm tired of finishing fourth. Being the fifth wheel. There are six things I'm mad about, and I'm taking over.

ice grillin you

so you can no longer read the philly papers online for free?

I think all papers are headed in that direction.  Gotta pay for content somehow.

NJ has farged up laws about guns, always has

Oh, that makes it okay then.  And why is some officer sticking his stick in cow mouths?  Chris Christie has a way to go in that messed up state.

PhillyPhreak54

Whatcha talkin' about Havas? I am on Philly.com and haven't seen a pay-wall pop up.

New York Newsday tried this for awhile and recently backed off because so many refused to pay.

I wonder if The Brownsville Gazette can be read for free....

Newsday is a lousy Long Island daily and Comcast mouthpiece so it's no wonder their attempt failed.

It can, but you'll need your browser to translate it into English.

And then when you're done with the main articles about steers and queers, install the "translate illiterate" add-on so you can understand the sports page.
