World Series Trophy Comes to Susquehanna Valley

The 2008 World Series Championship Trophy came to the Susquehanna Valley Mall on Tuesday afternoon. A big shout out goes to Peggy Chamberlain of Big Country Radio for holding my sons' coats. Everything went so fast.

I feld like Ralphie from A Christmas Story trying to ask Santa for his Red Rider BB Gun of course with the carbine action.

Phinally!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

As Joe Carter left the building, Mitch Williams summed it up best with quote from former Flyers head coach Fred Shero,

"Win today and we walk together forever."

As soon as the game ended, I reflected on my father and thought about an end to a quarter of a century of Philadelphia frustration. Since the 1983 Sixers, here is some of the frustration:

Sixers - one NBA final

Phillies - two World Series

Eagles - three NFC Championships and two Super Bowls.

Flyers - three Stanley Cup finals.

Savor this one, I hope I'm not 67 when the next one rolls around!

Bud Selig strikes again!!!

PHILLIES PHIRST

WORLD SERIES GAME SUSPENDED

MLB Commissioner Bud Selig suspends game in the bottom of the 6th. Cole had one pitch left in his arsenal. "We will stay here until Thanksgiving if that's what it takes." Well Bud, cancel tonights polar bear wind blown game for tonight.

I am having bad thoughts of Game 4 of the 1977 NLCS and Game 4 of the 1993 World Series.
