2011 Philadelphia Phillies Season Thread (choking awful pos team, DIAF)

[MDS]

yea its such a rarity for him to pitch well

he sucks

Yeah because that's what I said!

"nice to see" you too

[Don Ho]

Ernie Johnson & John Smoltz, no Atlanta bias there.  Thank god Darling is in the booth.

[ice grillin you]

chip careys pompous ass annoys the shtein out of me but johnson and smoltz are good and i dont find them to be terrible homers

then again id listen to munson and cole do a game before i listened to wheels....thank god i havent gotten a phils broadcast yet this year on the package

[MDS]

i agree, johnson is getting better as he goes and smoltz is pretty good. hes really honest and doesnt give a shtein if he says something that might piss someone off.

when i get mlb.tv (thurs) im getting the one where you can pick either announcer. say hello to no wheels and t mac unless its a braves or marlins game.

[ice grillin you]

so the braves play the infield in get a hard hit ball right at the short stop and cant even attempt a throw home.......jimmy the gawd

i cant envision any scenario where i would actively choose to listen to a phillies broadcast

[MDS]

i cant do rich waltz and tommy hutton or chip caray. since dibble is gone the nationals guys are now tolerable enough.

i mean wheels is one of the worst ever if not the worst but like 10 times in 162 games is doable.

[Don Ho]

Igy,

What MLB package do you have?  I get to choose what broadcast I want.  I have the deluxe package or whatever they call it.  I am one of those pissed off customers that had to pay the additional $14.99 for the iPad app.  

[ice grillin you]

i have the standard EI television package

[MDS]

EI sometimes, like on mondays, has both options when they have enough channels open

mlb.tv is i think 40 bucks cheaper though. which helps poor people like myself.

[ice grillin you]

yeah EI is expensive as shtein but i cant stand watching games on a computer

[Sgt PSN]

A lot of the newer tv's and blu ray players come with the MLB app.....so if you are a subscriber online, you can stream the game to your tv.

I wouldn't recommend buying a new tv just to get the app, but dropping $80 on a blu ray is nice because you can watch it on your tv at home or on your computer if you're at work or on the road. 

[MDS]

makes sense

if you have some kind of internet hookup to your tv you can get mlb.tv on there and then obviously have it on the cpu if you travel or whatever. it really works for me because of the amount of nights ill be in the office.

p.s. that was an easy ass win

Excellent game from Cole.  Nice bounce back. 

Solid inning for Contreras too.  So glad Cholly opted to keep Madson in the 8th. 

LOL @ Uggla going 0-11 in the series. 

[Don Ho]

farg u McCann!  And farg you too Uggla.

Very happy with taking 2 out of 3 in Atlanta.
