I agree. It would be nice for a change.

I like what Damon Runyon called it: The World Serious. Gotta root for the upstarts!

Must support the NL. Go Phils.

Howard is looking lost at the plate, taking some hideous hacks.

NCRadioMan · 10-22-2008, 09:52 PM

I can't get used to that camera angle. Fox just has to be different.

My friends were at the game, hardcore Rays fan. One guy has never missed a Playoff game at home...

Since Rays' lost game one 2 hours ago, I'm calling them about every 15 minutes or so to make certain they didn't drive off the sunshine skyway, or into the bay, or something...

Rays to win in a who cares serries.
Great story however down there in Tampa.

spectrrr · 10-24-2008, 05:56 AM

I gotta root for the Rays. yeah they beat the Sox

, BUT they earned their victory, so I'm hoping they go all the way. (I will not be watching the games however)

yourchoice · 10-26-2008, 12:20 AM

Just got back from watching the game at a friends house. WOW! What a crazy game.

GO PHILS!

shade · 10-26-2008, 12:22 AM

What a bizarre finish. Bases loaded, no out swinging bunt against a five player infield.

Rockestone · 10-26-2008, 11:37 AM

I agree. I hope it goes to 7 games and is decided by one run in the 10th inning.

Starscream · 10-26-2008, 09:04 PM

Eagles won earlier today, The Who is in concert this evening, and the Phillies are looking good to win game 4. Philadelphia look out!!!

AD720 · 10-27-2008, 08:01 AM

Another great game last night!

Lets go Phils!

If they win this thing at home South Philly is going to be unreal.

I bet.... I could only imagine how fun that party would be!

rizzle · 10-27-2008, 10:01 AM

I'm afraid this one is over. Pena and Longo have gone stone cold at the plate, the defense that has been simply awesome all year suddenly looks very suspect, and our pitchers can not get ahead in the count.

Unfortunately I think the big stage and the pressure that comes with it is finally starting to come home to roost with these young guys. And Philly just looks damn good. Other than stranding a bunch of runners, they've been outstanding.

Oh well, got to take it one game at a time though. Anything can still happen.
