Does not matter to me if the Phillies lose in the WS or not. They got there... again. That said, the Phillies know how to make a run of streaks.

Cliff Lee has a club option next year, so they could be playing in the WS again next year. I'll take two out of three.

Great game. I would enjoy it so much more if McCarver and Buck would shut up once in awhile. I haved to turn off the sound.

The most annoying thing to me is when they talk up a point say for instance home runs hit by pitchers in World Series...while a piticher is up....hoping to predict a homer by that pitcher who is up. They stink.
And McCarver just keeps going and going on and on, just shut the ef up!

Yankees win!! Yankees win!!!

Cole Hamels, after his game, told the press he wished the season was over. If I was the manager, I would have arranged that -- permanently. That kid has become a headcase. As has Lidge. What happened to those two in the off-season? The Phils need a team of shrinks assigned to the bullpen!!!!

As for Hamels and Lidge? The only thing that will make me feel better is a firing squad. I'll supply the blindfolds and the last cigarettes.

IMO, Hamels was doomed not to be able to pull this off for us once his wife had the baby. Seriously, that's a life-changing event and it's understandable there might be some distractions. I don't respect him for his comment, however, even if I do understand why his focus might not be 100% on the series.

LMAO typical Philadelphia sports fan " Wait till next year"

And you must be the typical bandwagon fan... always for the favorite, and no knowledge of sports.

No i am a pirates fan and proud of it prob the worst team in baseball. I just think its funny when you see very few phillies hats then after they finally win a championship last year now everyone is a die hard fan! As for the sports knowledge i can hang with anyone in that category douche bag!
I have been a Pittsburgh sports fan my whole life Win or loose so there is no bandwagon jumping here.

Right! You are a straight up liar. Pittsburgh is only bandwagon aroung here. Phillies fans are never bandwagon, they are never in the closet fans. We our proud no matter what. That's something a pirates fan cant claim. I never see pirates hats period. You probably did when they went to the world series back inthe 70's tho. But since then those hats are dusty as all hell because they haven't come out since. No matter what, no matter how many rings the steelers get, pittsburgh will never be as cool as philly, no matter how hard you try. GO PHILLIES! YANKEES SUCK!!!!! no matter what happens.

Listen philly trash i wear pirates,penguins,steelers garb all year round! Why would i lie about being a pirates fan ???? Dont be mad there is always next year! Ask any eagles fan

He was lousy all year.....so his wife having a baby has little to do with this. As mentioned above, Hamels is a headcase, but it didn't happen in the off season. This guy is a Southern California, prima donna and not very mentally tough.

I'm also upset that Lidge had all year to straighten out his problems...and didn't.

I agree with you on Hamels. I think the phills made a big mistake starting Blanton last night instead of Lee.After loosing game 3 the phillies needed last nights game more than the yankees did.Sabathia pitched on three days rest and Lee could have as well plus if the series goes seven games Sabathis will be available for the yanks and Lee will not.

Everyone that is hating on Philly will always be hating on Philly. We are very dedicated and devoted fans. Yes we are hard on our teams but that's only because we have more passion and love for the game than most other fans. Unless you have lived it firsthand please don't pretend you understand because you don't. I grew up in Philly and have ALWAYS been a Philly fan. My grandfather was a pitcher for the Media Phillies(farm team). We spent countless hours on the front porch listening to the games on the radio. Don't be hating because we finally made it to the series two years in a row. This team we have now has a chemistry that I haven't seen in just about 30 years. It sure would have been nice to beat the NEW YORK Giants and the NEW YORK Yankees in the same day. I don't think that's ever been done before. I was quite disappointed.

Thats a bunch of crap! That goes on in every sports city across the country we are all passionate about our favorite sports teams. I waited for many years for the steelers to win a Super Bowl ( i was to young to remember there four in the 70s) Ask a cubs fan how they feel, Pirates have not had a winning season since 1992 ect....so plenty of people understand firsthand. If you want someone to blame how about blaming Charlie manuel for not starting cliff lee last night or Ryan Howard for striking out 9-10 times in Four games or Lidge for blowing another game. I actually wish the phillies would win this series to keep PA the State of Champions but that might be difficult at this point! BigMac i do understand what you saying and you are not the kind of fan i was targeting so i will say i am sorry to YOU but you have to admit it was very difficult to find dedicated Phillies Fans before last year. Now everyone is Phanatic! lol BTW I am in philly and the phillies hats have been replaced with eagles gear. Eskin and the rest of the news i s focused on eagles. Fair weather fans??????

I've been a Phillies fan since I was old enough to watch baseball. I've been a Redskins fan since I was old enough to watch football. That being said...I don't wear any Phillies or Redskins apparel. I'm of the firm opinion that any man over the age of 12 that wears that stuff needs a good swift kick in the nethers. These are the same people who would kick the crap out of anyone who wore a costume to a Harry Potter or Star Wars movie. It's the same thing. Fanboy costumes.

Just sayin'.

These professionals get paid enough to ensure that the birth of a healthy baby is not a distraction.

Coming from a Philly fan family.....I can honestly say that over the years at my house we are always just surprised that our team makes it as far as they do!Philadelphia fans have had many many sad years in all our sports (just look at the 76ers!) I am happy Phillies made it to the world series this year......Yankees are indeed the best team money can buy....gonna be tough to beat them....I agree that as all with all Philly fans....we are questioning Charlie's play calling. If NY can use 3 pitchers for the series,we should have tried....and completely steered away from Lidge as a closer. Yikes...

philly trash! that's funny loser. No matter how many pittsburgh teams you say you like your still a loser!!!

bw, it's not about lying about your team, it's about pittsburgh fans saying they sport their team colors even in times of suckiness. Like i said i haven't seen anybody sporting anything pirates since the 70's. And just when the steelers go back into suckiness you will not see anybody sporting steelers crap again. It would be nice to see the Eagles whip the Steelers butts in a super bowl just so everybody can say SHUT UP STEELERS! We don't care about you or your super bowls.




if your in philly then you must be hated by people there. I almost feel bad for u. I was just in philly yesterday and like i said before, you are a liar. Phillies hats were everywear, including my head. GO EAGLES!! GO PHILLIES!!

You know i'm right there with you Mac! Win or lose i'll always be Phillies fan!

Noted, but on an emotional level, he's a first-time parent and I'm sure the desire to spend as much time as possible with his new baby is weighing on his mind. If he were an exec (think CEO), he'd probably take some time to work from home but wouldn't stay on the road. If he were a doctor, he'd probably have arranged to either not have appts. or surgeries this week, or he'd have someone cover for him. This is a World Series, sure, but it's not a matter of life or death -- and he's human.

You realize that you just offended about 99% of the public with that retarded statement that included the gayest word int he world, nethers. Dude get a life, that's part of the fun, but i wouldn't expect a redskins fan to kno anything about it. I would be emabarased to sport anything redskins at this point! And i dare you to kick any eagles jersey sporting fan in the "nethers"! You would be looking for your dentures laying in kingdom come pal!

LOL Now thats funny! Good luck tonight Phillies fans! Eaglez11 just for the record i wear a pirates hat and steelers sweatshirts everyday in philly ( proudly) with no comments from anybody. My car has not been as lucky! lol

Oh well. I'm sure they'll get over it. If they're willing to dress up like that in public, they're tougher than I could ever be. But it's still ridiculous. "Look, I like the sports team from my area better than you like the sports team from your area. And I spent $80 on this dippy-looking jersey to prove it!" C'mon. Just set your money on fire. It's just cosplay for sports geeks. It may be a socially acceptable form of geekdom, but you're still a geek.

And how many Super Bowls have the Eagles won? Like...any? Granted,the 'Skins haven't won since the 91-92 season...but at least they won. It's three more rings than your Feebles have. But alas, I'm not going to get into it. I don't mind the Eagles, so it would be a silly debate to have.

Personally, I'd be embarrassed to be a grown man and write like a 12 year old girl ('kno').

Saying you can hang with those of us that really know the game, its history and stats means you can't. Nice try, tough guy. And loose is lose, you moron.



Nah. I am happy we won last year and know we will be good the next few. With Howard, Werth, Vic, Utley, Lee, et al, we'll be right there again.

And Hamels, he'll be fine. I remember when Carlton went 27-10 in '72, then 13-20 in '73. Sports = streaks. Hamels has the goods.

If Hamels is going to hang with the big boys, he is going to have to toughen up. I am not even just talking about the games he has lost. You win some, you lose some. But his body language is a tell. He is playing like a Little Leaguer, shoulders slump, a facial reaction when a close call doesn't go his way or he walks someone. Either Charlie or the pitching coach or Cliff Lee need to sit the boy down and have a talk about manning up out there. He telegraphs his own feeling of defeat, and the opposing batters are all over him from that point on like flies on ... well, you know.

And for the record, most of us who are die-hard Phillies fans have been die-hard Phillies fans through all the tough, lean, heart-break years, and we have loved them anyhow. We've known their names and their stats and we might cry in our beer in November, but we are always looking for next year. Call us saps all you want. But if you think that makes us saps, then you aren't really a sports fan, and I pity the team whose hat and t-shirt you wear, cuz it'll change every time someone else wins the Super Bowl or WS.

I have to agree with you about Hamels, and it's not just because I'm not a Phillies fan. It's almost painful to watch, even as a non-fan. You almost want to slap him across the face and say "Snap out of it!"

And for God's sake, he needs to get that hair out of his eyes!

Here's that beer for ya, ceejay:

This is always the standard lame azz response from Philly haters-you just outed yourself, lol.

And this is the standard lame a$$ response from Eagles fans.

And what does one wear to a football game? A turtleneck and penny loafers perhaps?

LOL-cute!

Yeah, my brother is a Eagles fan, I get him all of the time.

Most pitchers aren't "tough", they're resilent. It was a down year for Cole. Nothing more or less, imho. Of course, next year will be a telling sign. Very telling.

I know you handle pitchers like you do kickers in the NFL -- kid gloves, etc. But Hamel's body language says Intervention required. And please don't let Cliff Lee get anywhere near him lest it be contagious.


Wow. You captured me precisely -- I have always told you I was a little squirrelly! (That better be a Guiness draft!)

Dear Cliff Lee:

Please ice that shoulder really really well tonight. We need you to pitch two more complete games, back to back. You are our only hope. sigh


edit to add: Phillies are curing me of chronic low blood pressure

Reminds me of myself, back in the guzzling days

LOL...I had a brainflash to Star Wars

"Help me Obi-Wan Kenobi. You're my only hope."

Yup. Just call me Carrie Fisher! And sure wishin' Charlie resembled Alec Guinness right about now.

(Hmmmm ... Guinness ... seems to be a common thread goin' here ...)

But the question is: Can you pull off the coile-braids-on-the-side-of-the-head look as well as she did?


Go Phils!

I actually could -- except, sadly, streaked with gray! Always hated the earmuff look though!

Yeah, but I don't see you in that bondage get-up in the Jabba the Hut episode (Return of the Jedi). I just don't think it would be a classy look for you.

Please. I am not into wardrobe malfunctions whatsoever. I much prefer to remain a woman of mystery.

I may have to take back the ill will I have been harboring toward Johnny Damon. Even though he's a Yankee, in my heart I still see him as a Red Sox, so every time he's at bat there's a part of me that hopes he gets hit by an errant pitch. But he's really done a good job this Series; I guess I need to get over it.

Thanks, I needed that laugh.
