Andy_pettitte_46_346a
Watching preseason games, 100+ regular season games, the NLDS, and the NLCS and then not tuning in for the World Series may seem a bit odd to some. Borderline stupid, maybe. But I have my reason. And I've numbered them below...1. Fox television. I'm not sure what is worse,...

What the $%^@ just happened?

Cole Hamels, The Baby-It felt like a rerun watching the game last night. Hamels was solid for a few innings, then a call didn't go his way (Teixeira ball 4), the sulking began, and then a crushing hit by the opposition (A-Rod's camera ball). Phils still had the 3-2 lead heading...

Mad Gab

Are You Ready For New York?

Game Time- Hamels to Clinch

Nlcs_game_1_fe6c
Cole Hamels' 2009 season and postseason have been a struggle. He's looked dominant at times, but seems to fall apart when things don't go his way (blown calls, fielding gaffes). Tonight he looks to put all that behind him and help the Phillies clinch their second straight...

Micromangaging
