Morty, Don’t get it at all. Your comment holds no water. I made no mention of BED soiling (read it again). Don’t misrepresent me for the sake of your Phillies boosterism. I gave credit to hitters (which invalidates your stance that I was anywhere in the vicinity of “all it took was shitting the bed”). And, besides, “shitting the bed” and heroics are not interdependent, no? [Didn't take you for a Frenchman. Ahh, but, then again, maybe your like affected Michael Barkann, yes?]

phillyfan, I like your precision and tempo. My kind of writer. Keep up the good shadowboxing. But your third statement is misleading, lacks verity. You’ll get your shot someday, kid. All it takes is a pet goldfish, Kensington sides of beef, high black Cons and an “ugly duckling” … Adrian!!!

Negadelphia? How trite. I don’t accept typecasting. Ever. Sociology is boring and inexact. And it doesn’t pay.
To call the Phillies (a 1-time World Series winner) a juggernaut is proof of your homeristic writing basis. Step back and find some ground … “It will go down as one of the greatest offenses of all time” … overstatement, possibly.

You called it: the game is over. Personally, I didn’t expect the Dodger’s staff to turn up so limp, excepting Padilla’s strong Game 2 performance. Phillies at the plate were no great shakes. Will have to up their .231 to wear the crown again.

Lights Out? Last chance to use him for a week. He deserves to be on the field for the clincher.

Look at the way Martin chased that ball. This team has already quit.

Charlie should have never sent Park out there again. Chan Ho is unittablle for an inning, then he loses it. Let’s go Madson, lock it up!

The only major question left in my mind is if Madson has good stuff tonight. I’m disappointed TBS didn’t show Hamels in the dugout right away when he got yanked. I’ve spent a lot of time thinking of Harry and Whitey durng this run, but I’ve been thinking about Tug tonight. He’d have gotten a real charge out of this. Don’t know if Happ should start in the WS. But I know Hamels shouldn’t. Pretty telling answer.
