HOW BOUT THEM PHILLIES!!!!!!

[jvencius]

WOOHOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! For the first time in 14 years the Phillies made it to the playoffs and I am STOKED! Thanks to a Mets collapse that will go down in history, we're going all the way and this is fantastic. I very distinctly remember the heartbreak that was the 1993 World Series and do (barely) remember the 1980 series (I was 3 years old) when the Phils won their only WS but I've got a feeling this is the year. :tu:

We listened to the game on ESPN radio XM184 before going into the FC Dallas game,Rollins stealing the two bases was the start of a great game!

Just got off the phone with my dad back in Philly he also is very happy to see the Phils grab the Nat East title

Heck, if I had Phillies underwear, I'd be wearing 'em right now. I already have my Phils hat and shirt on, so that would complete the outfit.

Don't get your hopes up JV. All us in the Detroit area felt the way you did last year and look how it ended.

The Mets folded up like a cheap suit. What a disgrace.

I am a Philadelphia sports fan and as such am very well used to disappointment.
