philadelphia freedOm

well it's hard not to be happy for happy world champion philadelphia philles and especially future hall of fame pitcher jamie moyer for whom ring very possibly is ticket to cooperstown.

not to mention the excellent jimmy rollins, 2007 mvp, who really gets credit for bringing pride back to sad franchise.

not to mention the city itself, which is free from 28-year title drought despite hosting four major league sports clubs.

however, even in last innings of waning fall classic, level of play remained disappointing if you ask wayward O. aki iwamura needs to catch that pop fly. and jason werth, asleep at first again, lucked out when he made it to second after getting picked off. there were too many similar examples and wayward O on many occasions wondered what these two squads were doing here.

no matter. friends ..... the lost season is over! and now team from baltimore must re-embark on quest.

the quest for october.

when our young, talented stars refuse to lose and when our organization shows the courage to make team better where it must, then we too will have our shot at glory. not a mOment before.

I hear that the 2009 road unis will say "Baltimore." Is that for real?

I was spelunking through the Aubrey Huff string on this fine blog. Funny how we all assumed the Rays would finish in the basement. The comment posts and the Huff quotes are all very steeped in status quo....

Then I watched Huff hit the cycle and reflected on what a long season it truly is.

The 2008 Rays are turly one for the books. Like the "Why Not" O's and the "Miracle Mets".

bro,
i'm pretty sure i (kind of) picked Os for basement. but i doubt anyone foresaw rays' amazin' run.

it's TRUE that BALTIMORE will again be on the road unis. or at least it COULD BE as team has made it an option.
