So we meet again…
February 4, 2010
Sorry for the long delay, I lost the will to blog for a short while there. But never fear! I’m back! I know you have all been on pins and needles waiting for my return to the blogosphere(that’s a word right?), that day has come.
I’m not going to even try to recap all the stuff that has happened. I will mention the Phillies made it back to the World Series, but they lost to the Yankees(they finally bought one!) The thing that pissed me off the most about the World Series(other than the fact that the Phillies lost of course) was the fact that the MVP of the ENTIRE series could not speak english. This simple fact has solidified the NFL as Americas sport, it is no longer baseball. You find me ONE just ONE NFL player that can’t speak enough english to be able to accept an award of any kind and I….well I just won’t believe you because there isn’t one.
In the offseason the Phillies traded Cliff Lee(yeah some how they get a great pitcher and lose the WS, how does that happen? Oh yeah I know! Brad Lidge was bad enough to cancel that factor out and then some.) Anyway they trade a top 5 picther(Lee) for the best pitcher in baseball Roy Halladay. So hopefully that works out, but it won’t…I mean that fact that the Phillies won the WS was amazing then for them to even get back the year after was a Miracle, there’s no more next level of unbelieveableness(it’d be like the Eagles winning the Super Bowl for the next decade….) So we’ll see how it goes next season….either way Go Phils.
Now on to my beloved Eagles…let me just start by saying the fact that the Eagles go 9-6-1 and make it to the NFC championship and then go 11-5 this year and get bumped in the first round of the playoff is beyond me(t0 be honest there is no other way that the franchise that is the Eagles could have been summed up any better, win when they aren’t supposed to and lose when they shouldn’t its actually quite beautiful….no…no its not.) The off season should be interesting, there’s a QB carousel between McNabb, Vick, and Kobb. Who stays who goes is yet to be seen, but I know who I’d be shipping off and who I would be keeping(McNabb stays Vick goes to buffalo and Kobb stays around and continues to hopefully become half the QB McNabb has been for us.) Knowing the Eagles they’ll keep all 3 and try to work Vick in a couple plays a game and have it not work(I mean Andy Reid forgets that we have running backs until someone reminds him…Coach I have legs I mean I can run the ball if you want? Oh yeah thats right…I forgot what the RB symbol stood for) How are we going to continue to work in 10 gadget plays a game to get Vick some run if we can’t even run the ball steadily. Plus Vick seems to think he is still a top 10 qb…well I guess we just got a steal then didn’t we?(no we didn’t cuz hes not a top 10 qb..duh). Okay that’s all for now i’ll try my best to satisfy the needs of my oh so many readers…
