SWEET!!! PHILLIES WIN SERIES!!!!


Phillip!!!! *OUR* Phillies won the Series!!!! Phils take the Series 4 games to 1. Final game score 4-3. [Game had been started MONDAY, and had rain delay, and rained out yesterday - finally finished last 3.5 innings tonight.] Brad Lidge, who got the save is being interviewed and the first thing he said was "Thank God, Jesus Christ, and my family."

Bust out the TastyKakes and Cheesesteaks(PROVOLONE cheese ONLY). Turn over a car. Climb to the top of the Ben Franklin Statue - light the fireworks - and let freedom ring!!!! The City of Brotherly Love has their first World Series victory since '80.

For the rest of you:

JUST WAIT TIL NEXT YEAR!!

"It breaks your heart. It is designed to break your heart. The game begins in the spring, when everything else begins again, and it blossoms in the summer, filling the afternoons and evenings, and then as soon as the chill rains come, it stops and leaves you to face the fall alone." - Bart Giamatti

  2. Oh, Kit. You poor thing. *sigh* -- Believe me, We had full season tickets to the PAdres for almost 30 years. If you pardon the expression "I feel your pain."

Anonymous posters are fine, but please give yourself a nickname so I know anon I from anon II. "Jack/Jill of the Amazing Wolverine Tribe" is preferable to "anonymous."
