Phillies Nation

Of course Beltran has more RBIs than Shane. Carlos primarily hits in the 4-hole.

even if shane had the chance i doubt he put those type of numbers yearly,theres just no way victorino is a better player then beltran hes good but not that good.

No they are not, they are opinions and exaggerations based on your generalization of Met fans.

And while you’re trying to guess which of those sets of stats is in the Philadelphia court, please keep in mind that they both have a .281 career batting average (Carlos’ career years having come c. a half decade ago) and career .994 fielding average. Taking into account that one of these players is on the upswing of his career with consistently improving power numbers and the other is three years older and losing power (while, admittedly, picking up speed in the form of SB’s, doubles and triples), I’d have to admit that the guy who did better last year in the primary offensive and defensive categories (whoever that may be) has a slight edge over Beltran… I mean, the other guy.

I was talking to my good friend William Penn the other day and we both thought how funny this was. Why just the other century we had a similar mis-understanding with our constituents from beow the mason dixon line. The folks from Yee Yonder wanted to incorperate slavery in the constitution. In both cases the bad guys won

cheese ugly, ryan coward, gay hole, fret lyers, gayson werthles. I CAN GO ALL NIGHT

Chad said it a while back – the Mutleys are a collection of players, not a team like the Phils are. That is why they will be gawking at our booties again this year!

I don’t get why anyone talks about the Mets anymore, they’re about as relevant as the Nationals now

mets arent scared of the phillies…mets dont care about the phillies…every met fan knows that all the phillies arguments will be for NOW ON…is this exact line right here : “we won the world series”..how do i know?..because its still the same one every yankee fan uses…STILL….we dont give a $hit

LOL…..sure you don’t care. Yes you do, there is jealously there. You never want to see you rivals win, especially when the losing team is a bunch of dancing big-months that can’t back up their talk in crunch time.

All you have to say is if Mets fans didn’t care about the Phillies….. Why are they posting on our blog?

I bet Kramer is some overweight white guy that still lives with his mother and spends all day downloading 2LiveCrew songs and porn. GET A LIFE LOSER!

we won the world series.

rg, that is the most nonsensical little blurb i have ever read. get out of here with that.

I agree with Dennis. Methinks that every Mets fan secretly yearns to a Phillies phan but is short on karmic points.

Perhaps in the next life, these miscreants may be blessed with becoming Phillies phans, but they must do some good things in this life.

Oh and we won the WS and they didn’t. So, nanner nanner boo boo.

Just something to think about, Mike.

Two points i would like to make here…..reyes does celebrate when he does something well…sometimes too much, but last year he got rid of the dances outside the dugout (he only does this with delgado on the top step) and does them inside…if that bothers any opposing player than so be it….the fact remains is that yes..the mets/phillies both get asked questions and do answer them, but the reason met fans and now we are seeing the mets players are a bit confused is that during every celebration that your team had, you were always bringing up the mets…to me that is pathetic…you beat us…TWICE!!! that just shows they players truely understand that they got away with a couple of good years when they were not the better team….also if any of you actually think Shane Vic is a better player than Beltran….well you are just plain lost…beltran is considered the best CF in baseball…by far….your argument that he bats fourth and that is why he has over 100rbi shows your lack of understanding of the game….CFs that bat 4th and drive in 100rbi are few and far between…add in his GG D, tremendous arm, ability to steal bases, score runs etc….come on i know you love “your guy” and that is great…that is the way it should be, but come on at least have a clue

I honestly don’t understand Phillies’ fans incessant hatred of Reyes. He’s a good kid…he’s always smiling and having fun. He’s a family man and stays out of trouble off the field. He’s great with fans…especially children. Has he even ever said anything negative about the Phillies or their fan base? Ok, so he styles a bit too much on home runs sometimes. So what? A ton of players do it and it’s not like Reyes only does it against the Phillies.

You treat Reyes the way Mets fans used to treat John Rocker…only the treatment of Rocker was warranted.

And yes, maybe I’m a “troll,” but I only checked this website after hearing the Reyes quotes because I KNEW there would be a post and a bunch of comments about. But according to “Jim” the Mets are just like the Padres and Pirates in the eyes of the Phillies. Ok dude…

The Phillies didn’t get away with anything the last 2 seasons, they were the better team. Accept and move on Mets fans. You and your team talk an awful lot for being beatdown in crunch time by not only the Phillies, but other teams as well.

And we can have the individual player arguments until we are red or blue in the face, but the fact is that the Phillies are the better TEAM with the better chemistry. The Mets (and other NL East teams) need to prove it otherwise.

The Phillies are the defending champs, the Mets are the defending bark award champions.
