PrintWho could have guessed that? The Phillies weren't a sexy pick, they were just a team at the beginning of the season. A strong team. They got stronger, and I'm not sure if the Red Sox, or any other team in the league, would have been able to beat them. Not when a 45 year old dude pitches like he did.
Congratulations to the Phillies, to Philadelphia fans and to Charlie Manuel. Tampa, good run and all, but now fuck off and die. You got a little bit cocky (both fans and players), and at the end got fucked mightly. The cowbell thing is really silly, Longoria is an asshole and so is Maddon. But kudos for a great season and all.
I miss baseball. Not that this WS meant anything without the Sox, but it was baseball. Now what?

P.S. Anyone want to lend me a semi-large roll of duct tape? Or advice on how to make a teacher nicer?

Congrats to the Phillies
I’m glad they won.
I gotta go 'cause I'm probably definitely gonna nod out again.
Naw, Tampa picks up on this on Aug 1.
That’s Miami you’re thinking of.
