I like the decision to go with Madson. I think we’re only going to see Madson, Romero and Lidge tonight.

Don’t be shocked if Hamels goes to the Batters Box and take a pitch….so he will get a rousing standing O

Well said, Mister Miner. I will suspend my usual distrust for Met’s fans on this the Eve of something wonderful.
I tended to be a happy drunk when I was still drinking.

Now, finally, it is time to end this thing. We have waited long enough. Hopefully the fans at the bank were listening to Mitch when he said to make that stadium shake. I hope the rays hear every Philly fan yelling in support of the Phils from everywhere in the nation. IT ENDS TONIGHT!!!
LETS GO PHILLIES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
BTW, my personal music selection before the game: Metallica’s For Whom the Bell Tolls!!!

1 + 9 = 2
Philly math!! 1 run for us, 9 outs for them = 2nd world championship.
IT HAPPENS TONIGHT!!!!

I agree with Josh and Mr. Miners second comment. It will pump up the crowd.

Remember that scene in every Disney sports movie where the guys down but the kid stands up with an inspitational (yet totally contrived and infantile) statement… Well some little kid better stand up and make his speech because the Phils are about to close the book on this story…
Go the Fightin’ Phils!

Should I also type the word “clap” repeatedly and try to fit in with the other phillies phans?
Every little scrap of “news” lately has been sycophantic ramblings about how we fans have been cheated and very little has been written about the other WS team.
I’m just saying…its not a guaranteed win tonight.
I want my Phils to take it all. I also want Jennifer Lopez to return my calls.

I’ll take a WS victory. Those are much more rare than a J-Lo bootie.

I am so nervous… the last time I felt like this the Eagles lost to the Panthers. So worried the curse is here.

I’d like to point out that Sen. Obama’s infomercial is basically taking up all of the pre-game time slot.
Basically, Obama is saving us from more Joe Buck. I’ll take less Joe Buck however I can get it.
