Chuckles was high last night. He takes Burrell out for a defensive, ahem, upgrade (again). If Burrell was in the game, the play at the plate was alot closer, if not an out. Charlie "foot shooter" Manuel...Thank God he's a players coach and they play for him, unlike Bowa. A bunch of nancies that team was a few years ago...Couldnt take Larry in their faces all the time...Longball Larry...lol..(Curb your Enthusiasm reference)

Manny has a great eye at the plate. He has struck-out twice tonite, but they were on great pitches. He is by far the best hitter we have ever had.

That pitcher was terrific. We can't hit that type. Who was that? MATSON? Send him out there for 6 more outs. No way we hit that type of pitcher.

This game be pure comedy. It's sooooo hilarious. We are not as good as you making us look. Matson totally had us. Should of gone 1 more inning with him, and finished us off with Lidge. Sometimes managers are just stupido.

Nomar was cold. For him to go deep like that, it had to be a piece of **** pitch, and boooooooooooooooooooooooy that was some kinda hanging piece of crap. Thanks for da cookie whoeva that fine reliever was. Well, DECLANS you can blame this on ya manager. We were neva eva eva gunna hit that Matson guy. We can't hit that type of quality stuff, and ya manager took him out. I could not believe that gift. It's like he doesn't know how feeble we are against certain pitchers. That's one of them. I guarantee ya he would of gotten 3 outs in the 8th, and no way we can hit Lidge's stuff. Atleast Nomar did what I asked him to do. He took 3 pitches, and then got ahead, and then he got da cookie. What the hell kinda pitch was that? Even Pierre could of hit that.

http://losangeles.dodgers.mlb.com/me...305965&c_id=la This video is better than porn. The sound of that bat on ball is so crisp. Never get tired of that sick pitch looking like a beachball to even this cold hitter. 12 SECONDS IN: I LOVE L.A. SONG STARTS UP. 14 SCONDS IN: FATBOY BROXTON CAN BE SEEN RUNNING TO HOME PLATE. 18 SECONDS IN: MANUEL CHUCKING SOMETHING INTO CONCRETE. 25-30 SECONDS IN: BROXTON jumpin' up n' down like somebody who weighs half what he does. 40 seconds in: Vin Scully starts doggin' on the Phils 40 sconds in: Victorino looking sick at same time that Scully starts doggin' on the Phillies DECLANS, you guys shouldn't take it as a celebration against you guys. It's a release of frustration from walk off losses on 8/5...8/9...8/10...That's why they are so happy. I think they got lucky to win this, but they were pretty unlucky in the Frisco game Sunday. I knew they didn't deserve that loss. So, this finally got that taste out of their mouths. I have no idea why Manuel gave us these pitchers in the 8th and 9th. Could easily have won it with Matson(8th)/ Lidge(9th), but he is smarter than any stupid fan, right?...LOL... Last edited by SCUDSBROTHER : 08-14-2008 at 07:56 AM.

What did I tell ya Scuds?? We lose those types of games.
My neighborhood had a blackout last night, so I had to listen to the end on the radio while I was in bed, but I already knew teh ending once Durbin got the hill. PATHETIC. Chuckles, with his mastermind substitions, cost us another one. If he had half a brain, Madson then Lidge, esp. the way he was mowing you guys down. For him, it IS just a hatrack. Typical Philly fashion. I think thats why our city is so fat, we are starving for a championship, so we turn to gluttonous tactics in an attempt to take our minds off of it. (that along with the NUMEROUS outlets of outstanding grub.) You witnessed first hand last night why we do Eagles chants at the Phillies games, because we subliminally know the Birds are our closest shot to ever hoisting a trophy. (As much as Bon Jovi thinks otherwise, the Soul doesnt count) I hope you enjoyed what we've come to know as 'facts of life' last night.

I was at teh Eagles-Bucs game (last game at the Dump, I mean Vet), you honestly could hear a pin drop once Barber had that pick 6. Then the Carlolina disgrace, when we made Ricky Manning Jr. look like the next coming of Prime Time. (my second boxer's fracture stemming from this loss.) Its sooo frustrating watching year in and year out, having a good, but not great team, esp. since we had teh cap room to make some serious moves. But Lurie and Big Red always put us in the position to get to the playoffs, not necessarily a championship calibur team, but a good enough team to take us to the top of the rollercoaster. Talk about futlility... As for the Phils, as Scuds witnessed last night, they are the laughing stock of teh NL. With the POTENTIAL fierpower we have, we should not be barely holding on to the NL East, we should be leaving these teams in the dust. But we are not and we never will. William Penn is looking down on us with a big grin saying I told you so. I feel bad for my dad and other long time fans that have been put through this living hell. I'm surprised they come back year after year. (my dad, from watching so many games, can tell you in the first 5 minutes of the Eagles game, whether or not we are going to win or not. Its a sick trait that seems to never fail) and dont get him started on 'Fat Andy'. I love him and both him and my uncle can't stand him. It makes for some SERIOUS arguments at family functions. With that said. take a trip to Vegas and get those odds for the Birds to win the NFC   . This is our bounce back year and no other team really looks scary in the NFC. This is the year to make the wager on us to get back to, not win, the Bowl.

Exactly!! I feel we could very well win the NFC this year.. but there is no way a Philly team can win the big dance. Not in the NBA, NFL, MLB, or NHL (I dont follow hockey too much but root for the Flyers none the less). Against the Patriots a few years back, I knew there was no way we'd actually win the superbowl (and we should have won that damn game, had we made a few more plays and if our QB had played better and the receivers -other than TO- had caught some passes). The Phillies find more ways to blow games I have no idea how they do it! The Sixers may actually have some hope.. I really like their new GM, but really.. can you imagine the Sixers winning the championship (I can't). I am 25 years old now, I wonder if by the time I'm 50 if we'll have a real title, maybe once I can see a parade! I would like to see it happen soon for my Dad too! The poor guy we've had season tickets to the Birds since I was 6 (700 level at the Vet too!!) but we can't see a champion team. I really hope McNabb stays healthy this year and some receivers step up... I feel for Westbrook he has to carry the whole team! It will also be interesting to see how our linebackers do. I say 11-5, win the East, win the NFC, lose to any team from the AFC. I like Reid too, my Dad and bro have mixed feelings. I agree with my father on the fact that Reid does not make good offensive play calls. We shouldn't have a 75/25 pass to run ratio like in years past. We should run the ball much more often... its not like Westbrook sucks or anything. Buckhalter is a good backup also. Its time to play some real football. I'm excited (since I live in Florida now) that I'll be home for the Birds vs. Skins game at the Link. But win or lose, I'll always  the Eagles. Cant help it.

I said it before, the worst thing that couldve ever happened to this franchise, was getting to the Super bowl without TO, the year he missed the whole playoffs and came back in the SB. It gave Big Red some false assurance that we can get there with the 2's and 3's, when in all reality, we can't. He thinks he can win the thing with the Thrash's, Pinkston's and Greg Lewis', which is why they really never invest the BIG BUCKS for a wideout. Have no fear, this is D5's year. Speed, speed and more speed. You'll hear it over and over again. Fastballs, as Andy puts it. PS. I love Stefanski too, he has this team headed in the right direction. Alot of young talent. PSS. Enjoy the Eagles game, dont fall into the sterotype of annebriated buffoon that we can't shake off for the life of us.

Well, I know this Dodger team pretty well. I wouldn't freak out about the fact that ya got shut down after ya got 6 off our troubled has-been starter(BTW don't get too excited about getting 6 off him, because he has been this bad for a while now, and nobody knows what to do with him.) We often give up a lot of runs early, and try the rest of the game to fight back. Our pitchers can hold a team down as we do this(so don't be too distressed about "hanging around doing nothing" as the DODGERS COME BACK.) This is why this team is the biggest tease in sports history. They are just good enough to be Entertaining. It was 6-4 thru 7 1/2 innings. The Diamondbacks had lost. We didn't have to win this game. We would have easily taken the loss, and stayed 1 game back in the standings. This ain't about the Dodgers. This is about Charlie Manuel's decision to take a guy out that owned us in 2 innings of work. He didn't want to use him for 3 more outs. I'll never understand that. The guy was on a sick roll. For God sakes man, he threw a fantastic pitch to strike Manny out in the 7th. Vin Scully was amazed that Manuel took Matson out.."The Dodgers must feel thoroughly grateful to see Matson taken out." See, the Dodgers can't hit good pitching very much at all. Manny and Eithier can slap something in a hole or something. The rest are gunna make outs. I know we can't hit the duck n' dive float like bird stuff that Matson/ Lidge have. You think Kent could knock those 2 runs in the 8th in against that stuff? Nope. Nomar can't hit good pitching at all. So, let me know (when you listen to local sports shows etc. today) if you find out Charlie's reasoning for what he did. 2 out of the 3 guys he used in the 8th -9th were somehat beaten by us the night before. Sometimes these managers get into trouble by trying to give guys a quick chance to redeem themselves. I've never understood that reasoning, but it appears to be a very popular way that managers fck up with(Torre has done it repeatedly with Andruw in big clutch situations etc.)
