2008 Philadelphia Phillies Season/Playoff Thread (Die Mets Die)

[SunMo]

3-1 to victorino and he pops up to short...i hate his offensive game

[ice grillin you]

i was just thinking how much culture shock fatty blanton must be in right now...hes pitching his whole career on the awful milquetoast west coast in front of 10k everygame and the next thing he knows hes pitching in a fierce northeast sports rivalry for a team with the toughest sports fans in the world...welcome to the big time dunn

[MDS]

pat burrell's defense sucks take him out for bruntlett

[ice grillin you]

holy shtein he hit a cutoff man resign him

btw the only reason there was even a play at home is because it takes burrell a day and a half to get into the corner to retrieve the ball...but perhaps thats his game...play possum then bang the guy out at home

heat exhaustion is starting to overwhelm fatty

[MDS]

cookies needs his cookies.

igy needs a burrell vorp sandwich.

[SunMo]

yeah, Burrell definitely should've cut off that line drive down the line...he sucks

[ice grillin you]

he doesnt suck he just cant move and is a dh

[SunMo]

i don't see a ton of leftfielders out there that would win a sprint

[MDS]

now now havas had a healthy share of haterade this mornin and hes just blowin off some steam

[The BIGSTUD]

I swear, I want to root for this team, and I want them to win, but when they pull these yearly trainwreck stretches I just want them to lose. Tough love kinda thing. They have to realize that their way of doing business just doesn't win championships.

manuel needs to go so badly...they need to get a real manager in here who wont let douchebags like shane victorino run the clubhouse...get a real leader in there and see what happens...it worked for the mets in getting rid of randolph...the phillies need to try the same thing...if that doesnt work then start overhauling shtein this offseason...this team needs either a mental break up or a physical one because even tho they have players that can win the team as a whole doesnt have that championship make up for whatever reason...start with manuel and see where that gets you...

[MDS]

its manuels fault jimmy rollins is grossly underpeforming and that myers, eaton and cookies are in his rotation.

[ice grillin you]

if youre gonna cliche it up at least say it right "the manager doesnt hit and catch"

and neither did willie randolph

[MDS]

i love you like a son but this aint manuels fault. firing him aint gonna do shtein.

[PoopyfaceMcGee]

Florida's winning, by the way.

3rd. Place. Soon.
