Philles are in the World Series….It’s not april 1st either….
October 18, 2008
I’m not kidding the Phillies are in the World Series for the first time since 1993. But it’s been 28 years since they’ve actually been able to say they were World Series Champions. They beat the Dodgers in 5 games in LA(much to the avail of Manny, he hit 2 homers in the series and had 7 rbi) I’m having trouble getting excited about this though, because being a fan of Philadelphia sports I am accustomed to being let-down, and brokenhearted(Sixers loss to the Lakers,Eagles being the poor man version of the Bills for 4 years then finally making it and then losing to the Pats) so I’m just going about the World Series as if they are already down 3-0 and destined for failure, that way instead of going into deep depression for a couple of weeks I can just be the “I told you so” fan. But I will root for them none the less and if they win, it will finally bring some respect back to Philly Sports and hopefully the Eagles and Sixers will see what the Phillies did and win a respective title(probably not….no, defiantly not)
Hey Red Soxs, thanks for making me look stupid!…bastards….The day of my post where I said that the Red Sox’s aren’t going to lose by 8 runs again at home they lose by 9!(well I guess I could spin it and say I was really smart because they didn’t lose by 8….no? your not gonna buy that?….alright) They did redeem themselves however in what seems to be like true Red Sox’s fashion, by being down by 7 runs in the 7th inning, and coming back to score 8 to steal one at home(can you steal one at home? isn’t that just like moving it?) They saved themselves from elimination and forced the series to go back to Tampa for the final two games and if they win this series I will dub them the greatest team in the Clutch of all time. Yeah I said it ALL TIME….they were down 3-0 to their Rival Yankee’s and won the series then the world series and they were down 3-1 to the Indians and also came back and won that series and the World Series again.(Hey Eagles,if the the Red Sox’s can be down 3 games and come back and win a series do you think you could play 2 quarters of good football in the second half?…..oh? that’s too much to ask? sorry)
Eagles have a bye this week so I officially have nothing to do this weekend(oh yeah…I do have this thing called a life?….nah)
Hey Phillies….re-sign Pat the Bat okay?
