we simply must do a fantasy baseball league this year. i volunteer to be the comissioner....
we could figure out what the winner gets...maybe the first three spots can each receive a burned disc of stones boots from the losers? something to that effect.
sounds like fun, dudn' it? |

Fuck fantasy baseball. Fuck fantasy football. Fuck all that shit.
That shit is rotten to the motherfuckin' core.
I have seen people get so fuckin' twisted over that shit that it's ridiculous.
I am a Phillies fan. I'll be fucked if I'm gonna be put in a position to have to root for some fucknut from the Braves or Mets just because he is on my "fantasy" team.
Unless you can guarantee that I get to have the entire Phillies team as my "fantasy" team...ya'll can fuck off. I would rather have hot iron pokers rammed into my eye sockets than pull for some schlub from a team other than the Phightin's. |

Pffft.
Yeah right. No one would want Ryan Howard, Jimmy Rollins, Bobby Abreau, Pat Burrell, Aaron Rowand, or Chase Utley.
Put down the crack pipe dude. If the Phillies had any kind of pitching staff, they would walk away with the NL East. But since they don't have any kind of pitching staff, we'll just miss out on the wild card...again.
It's fucking easy to be a fan when yer team always makes the playoffs...but it takes determination and extereme loyalty to be a Phillies fan. More than likely it's a masochist streak that I didn't know that I have... |

Yes Joseph, the Steelers and the Stones always go together. Inseperable. Complimentary. Look for big things from the Pittsburgh Steelers and the Rolling Stones in the coming years, including another fantastic Super Bowl in 2007. |

The Expos had fans?
I don't think so. If they did, they wouldn't be in DC now.
You just can't have home game attendance of less than 5,000 per game...and most of them came to see the away team.
Montreal is a hockey town, and nothing will ever change that...not even another strike. |

You're right of course..But its funny in Atlanta during late 70's they drew less than 2000 on many nights...But I was with the Spos from Day One...Still hate f'inn Rick Monday!!!!!!!!!! |

Montreal is a hockey town but the Expos averaged a lot more than 5000 per game before major league baseball all but guaranteed they would be moving like 5 years before they actually did. I wouldnt go watch a team that had zero chance of winning and was already ticketed out of town- fuck that. And good for Quebec in saying "no" to building a stadium for them. The good taxpayers of Pittsburgh and the state of PA built a nice shiny new stadium (despite voting against such a project)for the Pirates- a team that can never possibly win thanks to hilariously inept management and an economic system in which only the top few markets can build consistent winners. Baseball is my favorite sport but Major League Baseball is the most fucked up, corrupt, and idiotic professional sports league in the world |

Being in the same division as the Phils, I saw a lot of the Expos.
What happened to that organization was a crime. They had some REALLY good ball players through the years, and were always a tough game.
I'm with ya on Rick Monday.... |

You said a mouthful there.
PNC Park is a wonderful place to see a ballgame. I always try to make it out to the series with the Phillies. It's incredible how easy it is to get fantastic seats out there....cheap!

being in a fantasy league, however, lets you get involved in and have a steak in players around the league. had i ever heard of mike matheny or junior spivey before fantasy? did i give a shit how many stolen bases luis castillo had or how many groin pulls were suffered by kirk reuter?
no..i would argue fantasy extends your understanding of today and your familiarity with the players of this, our most incredible fargin' pasttime.

Sadly, your Phils only play one series per year here thanks to realignment, the unbalanced schedule, and stupid interleague play. Therefore a formally great rivalry gets reduced to 6 games per year. But those Bucs-Royals nailbiters make up for it though!! |

HardKnox...
It makes me sick to see what has become of the Phillies/Pirates rivalry. Those games were always so intense. Very sad.

Oh, I see. You just didn't pay much attention at all then...
You don't get the Sporting News out there in Minnesota?
I know exactly who Mike Matheny and Jr. Spivey are. I also know who Luis Castillo(no relation to Juan Castillo) and Kirk Rueter are. I even know about Kirby Puckett, Tom Brunansky, and Mike Cubbage. And if I need to know any info about any of them, I can find it in a few keystrokes and a couple of mouse clicks.
Now WHY do I know about those guys? Because I'm a Phillies fan. The old adage is..."Know thine enemy as you know thine self."
I sure as shit don't need some stupid fantasy game when I have the real thing to watch and listen to. Yeah, I still sit out on the front porch at night with a couple of cold ones and listen to the ball game on the radio. It's amazing what you can learn by just opening up your ears and listening to guys like Harry Kalas and Chris Wheeler and Larry Anderson. And than watching Baseball Tonight on ESPN and checking out all the highlights.
Like I said before, if you guarantee that I get the entire Phillies team as my fantasy team, then I'll play. Otherwise it's a waste of my time.

guarentee you get the entire phillies squad? that wouldn't actually be too hard.
and you would get your ass kicked. big time. no way a single roster can stand up to a fantasy roster.
i can rig the phillies thing if you're interested. i am the kommish, you know. hell, i could even shoot you in a "hunting accident" and get away with it. i have that kind of power... |

You have totally missed my point.
No. I do not want to play fantasy baseball. I have neither the time nor the inclination to commit to such an endeavor.
I will spend my season watching and listening to the Philadelphia Phillies. Period. I do not care about any other team or players from other teams....and I will certainly not pull for any of them to do well.
Just forget that I said anything. |

Claudine wanted to be the "voice of God" in the movie "Dogma", but Ben Affleck locked her in a bathroom at a Denny's on the day of the recording session. In retaliation, Claudine introduced Ben to Jennifer Lopez.
