Is Bud Selig really aware what's going on? He seems like he's on the verge of dementia.

By MLB rules, a game is official by the middle of the 5th inning. Yet the game continues until the middle of the sixth. This means when the game resumes, the Rays will play defense in perfect conditions for the bottom of the sixth while the Phillies had to struggle in mud puddles during the top of the inning. There were at least three pitches that Hamels put in the dirt because he lost his footing. If Selig suspends this game after the fifth inning, no harm, no foul. Yet he didn't, and he should've let the Phillies have their bottom of the sixth.

I hope this has no decided outcome to the series, but if it does pretty soon I'm going to have to be sent to a padded room.

The more I think about it, the angrier I get. Bud's explanation that "three" weather services didn't call this to happen is a bunch of BS! That's why he wouldn't name the three, because he was lying. Two local meteorologists at 6PM knew this game wouldn't be finished. But because MLB is a slave to the FOX network, and they have to compete against Monday Night Football, the game goes on.


Now for tonight Bud's given himself an out for canceling again if it's too windy. Yet I think it has more to do with the new episode of "House M.D." at 8pm.

For all the Phillie fans out there, I'm truly happy for you all. I know what it's like as a Red Sox fan to wait a long time to enjoy a championship. Congratulations!!!

Yes it is. I'm 37 so I remember 1980, but I don't think you can really appreciate it when you're nine years old. You think these championships are going to happen all the time. At least now I've experienced what I wish I could've felt after Super Bowl thirty-nine. The Eagles had dominated Philadelphia sports for about twenty years and yet the red headed step-children of the city are the ones who win it all.

There's a local sports radio personality who has made a living slamming the 'cheapness' of the Phillies organization while his nose has been firmly planted inside the rear end of Andy Reid and the Eagles. I'm going to listen to his radio show this afternoon with glee as he gets a good reaming.


46 hours of angst are finally over.

Hey, At least the Mets didnt make it (Collapse #2 for the second year in a row) thanks to the mighty Marlins!!!
Hey, not to worry about the Phillies pitching because THEY ARE THE BEST BASEBALL TEAM AROUND!!

CONGRATS TO OUR PHILLIES, WORLD SERIES CHAMPIONS!!!!! NOW PARTY ON PHILLIES' FANS!! It took 28 years, but so worth the wait!

HEY GUYS! Anyone going to the celebrations @ the fields tomorrow??
We got seats in club 23 row 8 at the Linc! We were tempted to buy some on ebay for Citizens Bank Park, but I think we just need to be happy that we actually got ANYTHING! They went so quickly!

I was saving some fireworks for a "rainy day" so of course we set those puppies off last night in the middle of the street! I still can't believe it!
