Matthew, I know you have a connection with Dan, but remember the Rockies play in the National League and that would mean they would have been eliminated by the Phillies or one of the other NL teams. So go easy on your "shoot from the hip" blind support of the Phillies.

Remember it is hot and sweaty in Philidelphia and dry and pleasant in Denver. Seems like a no-brainer to me! :wink:

Oh? www.weather.com says it's "hot and winning" in Philly, but "dry and losing" in Denver. What's pleasant about that? :mrgreen:

sigh.... Yes a brief weather disturbance but the unsettled air mass is heading east to the city of Brotherly Love (?) Very disappointed in the series in Arizona, we will see if we can do better against the Giants this weekend.

Or maybe I should switch to the Bronco's and Avalance earlier then expected this fall.....

11 wins in a row - most since '92. Magic Number is 3, Braves losing to Nats - Magic Number could be 2 before the night is over.

Not that I'm bragging or anything.

Watch out for the Brew Crew next year..... Or did I say that last year, can't remember :)
Oh well, the Packers are off to a good start. They knocked off the Eagles :P
And the Broncos got a break this year, they're not on the Packer schedule :wink:

We are thankful for not having the Packers this year, And if we do well during the bye week we should do OK. LOL We even lose during the bye week some years!

Uh-oh. You didn't throw your support behind the Phils starting last night, did you, John? They've lost two in a row. Well; the Braves lost too, so the Phils Magic Number is now 1. Still, we need to keep Big Mo in our corner. Hamels really lost his cool today, something he hasn't done in a long time. Steady as she goes!

naw.... threw in the towel this afternoon after watching the Rockies lose to SF. Though not technically eliminated, they are emotionally done.

All that is left is for Ubaldo to win his 20th tomorrow ( and hopefully that will get him closer to the Cy Young award) and for Carlos Gonazales (CarGo) to win the NL batting title.

Smaller bites of the Baseball Apple this year...

OK, not only are the Phillies the National League Eastern Division Champs. They have home field advantage, throughout the playoffs, because of their record and because of the NL win in the All Star Game.

Destiny. It's in our hands.

It's what I'm tawkin' about. We may be waiting for the playoffs to begin - starting in our backyard, all the way through - but we can't shake our winning ways.
