Check me out on WoW’s Tuesday Evening All-Star Game Glogcast™
Posted by meech.one at 7:20 pm ET 305 Comments

Are you watching the All-Star Game tonight on FOX but really can’t stand those annoying blowhards Joe Buck and Tim McCarver? Gooooood. Because a veritable who’s who of blogging is converging (FOR ONE NIGHT ONLY!) on Walkoff Walk’s Furious Five podcast thinguhmahwhatsit at 8 PM EST sharp for what promises to be funnier and far more interesting commentary than those FOX guys provide. So click the picture up top to be whisked away into the world of blog talk radio for all the specifics.

I’ll probably be calling in from the bar around 8:45/9:00-ish.

Stop by, why don’t you.

    This is going to be fucking amazing.

  2. TonyIsDynamic says:

    Oh come on, Joe Buck isn’t tha-PFFFFFFFFFFFahahahahahaha.

    I don’t think T-Mac’s actively bad at all but no way in FUCK am I going to finish that sentence. I won’t even make a joke like that with McCarver. Most annoying fucking person to listen to.

    Is Franzke doing this shit?

  3. TonyIsDynamic says:

    Of COURSE I’ll be doing the Glogshit as well.

  4. PhillyPhanInChi says:

    Fantastic. I’ve always despised Joe Buck but that was taken to a whole new level when he said how boring baseball was. It’s an absolute sham to have him in the booth for ANY baseball game. McCarver is like a bootleg and boring Madden, so I can actually deal with his weirdness…..

  5. ScottGraham says:

    Are you gonna constantly mention Steinbrenner’s death, though? I won’t know he died unless you bring it up every 2 seconds like Joe and Tim will.

  6. Mel Gibson says:

    I HOPE THEY PUT STEINBRENNER IN A FUCKING ROSE GARDEN

  7. The Boss says:

    Guys, I’m not dead. Hell, i think I’m doing a show in Wildwood next weekend!

  8. George Carlin says:

    Alex Rodriguez takes a step forward? Get fucked in the ass.

  9. Milksteak says:

    Was Cliff Lee wearing an Indians shirt under his jersey?

  10. Philly Phever says:

    Anyone know why utley was a no show?? didn’t see him standing out there…

  11. greggyD'sPatch says:

    did buck die his hair? what a dicklicker

  12. Milksteak says:

    @Philly Phever: he didn’t feel like having to say ‘Fuck You’ to an entire city again

  13. Philly Phever says:

    Im just wondering cause I see pedroia out there on crutches and utley cant even go out there and represent his all star status?

  14. Milksteak says:

    He’s too busy getting back at Werth by banging his wife, perhaps?

  15. Milksteak says:

    Get this fat broad a cheeseburger and start the game. No singing.

  16. jd says:

    holy fuck i’d rather have meech sing this.

  17. Phils Phan says:

    That hugging scene was cute, how Wright and Rodriguez immediately hugged each other.

  18. will.H says:

    she sang the anthem here during the world series

  19. George Steinbrenner says:

    I was a full on rapist.

  20. George Steinbrenner says:

    I mean philanthropist.

  21. jd says:

    START. THE. GODDAM. GAME.

    THATS IT IM DRINKING AND BEATING MY KIDS I BLAME MLB

  22. J says:

    LOL @ Fox pimping their own tv shows. This is a baseball crowd not a group of teenage girls. Get a real singer.

  23. Adam Sandler says:

    Rod Carew. He converted.

  24. will.H says:

    the same jd from dc?

  25. Dubee Dubee Du says:

    Are they doing the game in 3D? It looked as if McCarver was coming into my livingroom when he leaned toward the camera. Not that I give a shit but he scared my fucking dogs.

  26. Phils Phan says:

    We meet again, Buckfutter.

  27. epiphany1 says:

    Leave the girl alone. She did good. She was way better than those fucks they had on before the home run derby.

  28. TonyIsDynamic says:

    Ugh.

    This commentary is ALREADY giving me a fucking headache. Someone take out McCarver with a headshot?

  29. Milksteak says:

    BY THE WAY, the Glogcast jawn BLOWS

    they dont talk about the game, just random shit

  30. will.H says:

    pujols wearin a gazoo

  31. Phils Phan says:

    It was Cano’s shortstop arm that made that play. Not his glove. Or his quick reflex to grab the dropped ball. His shortstop arm.

    Can you imagine Wheels, McCarver, and Joe Morgan calling a game? I think the rapture would occur.

  32. Brett Myers says:

    Trade Booby Abreu for a sack of peanuts, he sucks and hates walls!!!

    …wait wut, he was traded 4 years ago you say, and for FOUR sacks of peanuts even?

    I CALL BULLSHIT!!!

  33. Mike P says:

    This whole podcast is mostly about bacon, Nicolas Cage, and shrooms. And yet somehow they’re more on topic than Buck and McCarver. Bizarre.

  34. will.H says:

    baldo better go uno dos tres

  35. Milksteak says:

    yeah if they actually commented on the game and not worried about having a conversation it would work much better

  36. Uncle Charlie's hands says:

    LIKE ZOMG YO ROY HALLADAY IS GONNA BREAK LIKE SO MANY FACES YO. THUMBZ ME UP THEN IF U AGREE YO!!!!!

  37. Dubee Dubee Du says:

    They say that these deaths come in threes. You think Jeter was thinking he might be #3 with that chin music there?

  38. will.H says:

    a walk and a bloop hit, and the AL is superior. wtf mate

  39. Milksteak says:

    Lets go Ryan, go all Jack Parkman on it (before Ricky strikes you out)

  40. Philly Phever says:

    haha, thanks for being the first strikeout in the game big guy

  41. will.H says:

    in fairness, no one can see the ball

  42. RicoBrogna says:

    lol @ will.H! U sound like Wheels during every phillies afternoon game!

  43. RicoBrogna says:

    BTW tuned into glogcast or whatever the fuck and i didn’t hear meech so i tuned out.

  44. will.H says:

    oh shit, so is there any way we can delete my comment because im embarrased. damn it

  45. Jupiter's Rings says:

    Heads shoulders kneeeees and toooooeeeesss

  46. RicoBrogna says:

    U should be will. U should be! Lol

  47. Dubee Dubee Du says:

    Too late Wheels er um I mean Will. Shit now I sound like TMac.

  48. Dubee Dubee Du says:

    @ George Carlin – I was wondering if they still abide by the rules of the road where you are now?

  49. RicoBrogna says:

    Cory Hart is doing his best Jayson Werth imitation.

  50. Mike P says:

    Corey Hart = Amish + tattoos.

  51. acasualobserver says:

    @Rico, flailing at a breaking ball for strike three? seems like Werth

  52. Dubee Dubee Du says:

    You’re right Rico but he needs to work on going to one knee.

  53. will.H says:

    ricobronga, are you Yoda?

  54. kurt says:

    Domonic Brown is better than 95% of these rosters.

  55. Dubee Dubee Du says:

    Price, Pettitte, Lee, Joe G is sure going hard after Big Brown, any other lefthanded hitters in the lineup?

  56. Mike P says:

    I love all the chin music to Jeter. The NL could make a statement by actually plunking the guy.

  57. will.H says:

    has the NL had a better staff in the last 30 year?

  58. RicoBrogna says:

    Will nope just a former fightin phillie!

  59. will.H says:

    Mike P, i like what Jeter did. He got rung up high again and he stepped out of the box and acted like he needed more pine tar to reset his eye level.. or thats at least what i think

  60. George Carlin says:

    Same shit happens.

    Sneeze and fart at the same time? Saint Peter gets angry.

    Leave it in reverse at a stop light about to turn green? Jesus Christ. No, I mean he’s done it. Still as frustrating.

    The good thing is that heaven has a no-barbwire tattoos policy. Those fucks are down in hell. And deservedly so.

  61. Mike P says:

    If Cliff Lee still loved Philly, he’d groove one nice and easy, right down the middle to the Big Man.

  62. maria says:

    Cliff Lee is going to face Ryan Howard? No likey.

    McCarver is so fucking awkward. Taking long pauses in between words as if he’s going to say something meaningful or profound.

  63. will.H says:

    Cliff Lee just made the best hitter in 40 years look absolutely ridiculous

  64. will.H says:

    Mike P, if he was on seattle he might have.. but now that he’s on a team with a chance.. the competitor in him says nope

  65. RicoBrogna says:

    Typical of yankees to bogart and take over events like the all star game with the passing of steinbrenner. Has nothing to do with the all star game but now we have to listen to every yankee give his fav steinbrenner memory. who gives a fuck! this time it counts! Who is going to have home field advantage in the world series…american or national!

  66. Uncle Charlie's hands says:

    I’m pretty sure that’s a Phillies undershirt Lee wore during late in the season.

  67. will.H says:

    anyone notice the Angels stadium has a poorly placed camera behind home plate. all i get is the running cable when theres a ground ball to the right side

  68. PhilsSuckMooseBalls says:

    Howard looks good…..fuckin loser lmao 0 for last 14 biatches

  69. Mike P says:

    I’m pretty sure that Cliff Lee pleasures himself nightly to pictures of the Phillie Phanatic.

  70. 14 year old says:

    Josh Hamilton sold me crack. Hit a homer buddy

  71. will.H says:

    Mike P, nice to see Cliff and I have something in common

  72. J says:

    Clifton :(

  73. RicoBrogna says:

    I heard from a reliable source that Cliff Lee banged Werth’s and Utley’s wives at the same time!

  74. Mike P says:

    Cholly should just leave Johnson out there. He’s dealing, and they just need to win this game. I’m so fucking sick of the Junior Circuit’s domination of the All Star Game.

  75. RicoBrogna says:

    In the dugout after he caught the pop up at yankee stadium!

  76. will.H says:

    i want it to put its dick in me

  77. will.H says:

    bunt, i would.

    timmy, roy and company on the mound of the NL

  78. Mike P says:

    @ will.H

    Wow, dude. Wow.

  79. RicoBrogna says:

    Damn will.H are you really Wheels? You sound even more like him with each post!

  80. Sophie says:

    Ryan Howard’s commentary is much more interesting than these announcers.

  81. will.H says:

    Joe Mauer Ankiel’d it

  82. RicoBrogna says:

    Wright should be on third. Howard should be dh and do the color commentary! Sophie’s right he’s way more interesting then buck and mccarver.

  83. will.H says:

    Rico, maybe you’ll pick up on this one:

    I dont know

  84. Mike P says:

    @ Sophie

    I couldn’t help but notice the same thing last night at the home run derby. It would have been far more interesting to just let Howard and another player chat away.

  85. George Steinbrenner says:

    Hey! Did you guys hear that I died?

  86. will.H says:

    man on 2nd with no outs in a pitchers(many) duel.. im bunting with babe ruth if i have to

  87. Dubee Dubee Du says:

    I can’t take to much more of the suspense. What is Charlie waiting for? Get me some Infante damnit. I want some Infante. Why tease us with his presense and then keep him from us? Get him in. Get him in now!!! I WANT INFANTE!!!

  88. Billy Martin says:

    Now i have to see your fucking ass every god damn day, George?

  89. Dubee Dubee Du says:

    Should’ve known Perlozzo was coaching third.

  90. will.H says:

    dubee i’ll do it with you

    ooo-mar oo-mar

  91. Sophie says:

    @ Mike P

    Damn, I know I should have watched.

  92. RicoBrogna says:

    Dubee,
    Right on about perlozzo i forgot he was coaching third until wright put the brakes on.

  93. will.H says:

    Corey Hart, that ball was 26 inches off the plate. You’re the worst.

    Apparently you’re wearing your sunglasses at night

  94. will.H says:

    its actually quite disturbing Yadier Molina almost played 5 innings

  95. acasualobserver says:

    Nice to see Molina only get one at-bat, it’s more than he deserved in the first place.

  96. RicoBrogna says:

    Will,
    Awesome! I couldn’t wait for cory hart’s sunglasses reference! Hart is the worst.

  97. Dubee Dubee Du says:

    Damn it I saw a Brave and thought INFANTE why Charlie Why not Infante?

  98. RicoBrogna says:

    Is anyone else as excited for The Expendables as i am?

  99. PhillyPhanInChi says:

    Hart is a bootleg Jason Werth.

  100. PhillyPhanInChi says:

    @Rico- More than you know. I’m pissed they have Dolph, Sly and no Carl Weathers….

  101. will.H says:

    The Expendables? That’s what i call my ex girlfriends

  102. will.H says:

    phillyfaninchi that’s priceless

  103. George Steinbrenner says:

    Nope, Billy. I’m getting your ass thrown out of here. Again.

  104. jd says:

    will-the very same, bruuuuhhhhhh

  105. RicoBrogna says:

    Phillyphan,’
    And no Mr. T! And according to imdb.com van damme and segal turned down roles in this movie. Apparently they have much better things to do!

  106. RicoBrogna says:

    George,
    You do realize you’re in hell right? Right?

  107. Mike P says:

    Holy shit! Where was Kuo throwing that ball?!?!

  108. acasualobserver says:

    leave it to a dodger reliever to choke in an important game

  109. RicoBrogna says:

    seriously

  110. Dubee Dubee Du says:

    This is as bad as 73 when they wouldn’t put Wayne Twitchell in til the sixth inning. Who the fuck is writing the script for these shows?

  111. Brett Myers says:

    Well, at least it wasn’t Broxton this time…

  112. Brett Myers' Wife says:

    Ow, my face!

  113. acasualobserver says:

    Roy will be right at home when he pitches. Down by a run, 6th inning or later, offense playing terrible for him and the run on the board wasn’t his fault. Poor guy…

  114. Dubee Dubee Du says:

    Tonyis Dynamic would say…”this games over”

  115. George Steinbrenner says:

    It WAS hell. But I bought it and renamed it after me. Next week we launch our new TV network, “HELL YES”. Joe Buck does the morning drive.

  116. Phils Phan says:

    Rest Roy. Send Infante to the mound.

  117. RicoBrogna says:

    Lol George! I shoulda known!

  118. TonyIsDynamic says:

    Charlie fucked us over by putting in Middle Relievers.

    You see Girardi doing that? No, he’s got LESTER in the fucking pen.

  119. RicoBrogna says:

    Here comes a HR from Howard!

  120. Adamr14 says:

    Charlie would put in brad lidge if he could

  121. Brett Myers says:

    Hey guys, I got one better than Infante: Let SCOTT EFFIN ROLEN pitch!!!

    I will be the one rolen…over in laughter if that happened!

  122. Mike P says:

    Can we just put Chooch in Molina’s uniform and do another catching replacement? He could just wear the mask the whole time to fool the umps.

  123. Dubee Dubee Du says:

    It’s 10:15 PM EDT that’s 4:15 PM HELL STANDARD TIME. Time for your pineapple George.

  124. Brett Myers says:

    Pineapple? But I didn’t think Shane made the All-Star team this year

  125. Dubee Dubee Du says:

    You can move him around if you need too? Why would you need to? You got a perfectly good Infante .

  126. Tyler says:

    MEECH,
    you might want to check out page 2 of the sports section in the Philadelphia Inquirer tomorrow. I think you will be very pleased.

  127. J says:

    DOC TIME!!!!!!

  128. George Steinbrenner says:

    Thanks DDD, but I’ll just take Billy’s head if you don’t mind.

  129. Dubee Dubee Du says:

    Did the inky start running gay personals on page 2 of sports Tyler?

  130. Dubee Dubee Du says:

    Elvis has left the baseline

  131. Mike P says:

    Nice (inadvertent?) foot block by Phillips on that SO-CS.

  132. Dubee Dubee Du says:

    The triple pump by McCann really screwed Andrus’ timimg up. Amazing they could work such plays out in a day and a half,

  133. RicoBrogna says:

    Braves and mets players are really trying to screw the fightins outta home field advantage with their antics

  134. Dubee Dubee Du says:

    I meant timing. But timimg might stick if enough people use it.

  135. Mike P says:

    Matt Capps?! This seems ill-advised.

  136. Dubee Dubee Du says:

    Where’s Rhodes the lefty specialist?

  137. Brett Myers says:

    Open a McCann of whoop-ass, that will cure all ills!

  138. will.H says:

    haha jd, zep braaah. see you July 31

  139. Mike P says:

    Well, shows what I know. Nice pitch to strike out Ortiz.

  140. Brett Myers says:

    Hey remember when Rhodes pitched for the GoodPhight, and he was fucking terrible?

    Bad (but funny!) times

  141. Dubee Dubee Du says:

    Is this sorta like the FIFA allstar game only with more scoring?

  142. will.H says:

    yet to be said.. how good is the strike zone tonight? it’s in rare form

  143. Brett Myers says:

    I meant The Phightins, not The Good Phight Phillies blog…which never employed Rhodes far as I know!

    Shit i’m tired and drunk and driedunk kssadsfgd

  144. Uncle Charlie's hands says:

    If the NL ties it, is Cholly going to contact Billy Wagner to screw this one up?

  145. Brett Myers says:

    Ryan Howard is unclutch and can’t hit homers anymooooore, trade him for Votto who has a cooler name anyway!

  146. Dubee Dubee Du says:

    Bud Selig died last week. They’re just doing a Weekend at Bernies with him to get through the Allstar festivities.

  147. George Steinbrenner says:

    In case anyone forgot, I’m still dead.

  148. Brett Myers says:

    Sucks that Burrell isn’t on the AL All-Star team, to blow B-Wags save attempt…if we ever get a save attempt :(

  149. Mike P says:

    The media coverage of Steinbrenner’s death only demonstrates that no matter how much of an asshole you are in life, you will receive effusive and over-the-top praise in death, so long as you are famous.

  150. Brett Myers says:

    Figures that it’d be Rolen who would be the first Former/Current Phillies All-Star to get a hit :(

  151. George Steinbrenner says:

    Hey – I bought all that effusive and over-the-top praise. Suck on it.

  152. RicoBrogna says:

    George your much more fun dead then alive

  153. Brett Myers says:

    How long until we see Adam Wainwright enter the game?

  154. acasualobserver says:

    Seriously though…How the hell did Rolen just do that?

  155. Mike P says:

    Ballsy move by Rolen on the basepaths. When he slid into 3rd, I found myself screaming, “YEAH, SCOTTIE!!!!” First time in a long time I’ve heard myself say those words. I definitely startled myself.

  156. Morandini's Triple Play says:

    Well..he was resting his back all last weekend.

  157. Brett Myers says:

    Because he’s Rolen, and he wants us to hate him?

  158. George Steinbrenner says:

    Thanks Rico. I’ll be here for eternity. Try the veal.

  159. Brett Myers says:

    …by the way, have I ever mentioned how much I miss having Rolen with the Phillies? :(

  160. Mike P says:

    Marlon Byrd! Former Phils are everywhere!

  161. Morandini's Triple Play says:

    Jayson woulda caught that foul.

  162. Brett Myers says:

    This game sadly looks very familiar to Phillies fans…since the score is like so many others this year :(

  163. RicoBrogna says:

    I heart scott rolen always.

  164. RicoBrogna says:

    I never envisioned ALL STAR marlon byrd when he was with the phils. Weird

  165. Morandini's Triple Play says:

    make ya think maybe Uncle Charlie is the problem?

  166. phillygirl says:

    what’s with those two girls in the back behind the plate? so distracting!

  167. Brett Myers says:

    Spoilers: Phormer Phillies stop sucking the second that they leave town! :(

  168. RicoBrogna says:

    i think ur on too something there morandini

  169. Pat Burrell says:

    @ Brett Myers:

    Shenanigans.

  170. RicoBrogna says:

    Yessss!!!!!!!!!!

  171. Mike P says:

    FUCK YEAH!!!! WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!

  172. will.H says:

    UNDO

    CORK

    SCREW

    YES

  173. phillygirl says:

    take that AL

  174. acasualobserver says:

    I don’t care that he’s a brave, I’m fucking tired of the American League.

  175. Morandini's Triple Play says:

    Two of the runs scored by former phillies. Thanks Ed Wade.

  176. J says:

    YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 3-1 NL!!!!!!!!!!!

  177. Brett Myers says:

    It looks like I got my wish, since Brian opened up a McCann!

    …I feel so dirty rooting for a Braves player :(

  178. will.H says:

    i was thinkin that too morandini. rolen and marlon bird lookin like all stars, literally

  179. Morandini's Triple Play says:

    We’re not rooting for a Brave. We’re rooting for Charlie’s team.

  180. Mike P says:

    @Rico

    I don’t know, I’m not stunned that he got himself into an All Star Game. He had a pretty good year in 2003, finishing 4th in ROY voting. You could tell that he always had potential, but it took a long time for him to fulfill it.

  181. Dubee Dubee Du says:

    This will not last McCarver the all kowing has already stated the NL will only win because of Hanly Ramirez

  182. will.H says:

    Hanley gave him good advice i bet, Dubee

  183. Mike P says:

    This isn’t about rooting for Phils, Mets, or Braves. This is about rooting for the league that still plays real baseball, and against the league that has turned baseball into an abomination.

  184. Dubee Dubee Du says:

    Mike P- Do they do the wave in the AL? Those bastards

  185. Mike P says:

    If that wasn’t clear enough, I fucking hate the American League. I hate the Yankees, Red Sox, and Rays. I hate the fucking designated hitter rule, which transforms baseball from an interesting sport that combines strategy and athleticism, and turns it into a home run derby yawnfest. And I really fucking hate that they took Connie Mack’s Athletics and moved them to pathetic cities like Kansas City and Oakland.

  186. Brett Myers says:

    That’s one of the great things about All-Star games, forgetting what teams the players usually play for and just root for all the guys on the NL team regardless of if they are guys from the Braves,Mets,Cardinals,Reds, or whoever else.

    I just want the AL to go down!

  187. Morandini's Triple Play says:

    Same Phillips who looked like crap against the Phils last week.

  188. Mike P says:

    @ Dubee

    And how can I forget? They embrace the fucking wave.

    Fuck the American League. Fuck the Junior Circuit.

  189. will.H says:

    she’s stupid

  190. Brett Myers says:

    …and I want the Athletics back in Philly :(

  191. CTM says:

    Wow, that guitar player looks like a dreadlocked Dave Batista.

    Oh, also this woman sucks. My opinion is very legitimate due to my zero singing experience.

  192. Adamr14 says:

    Id tap that

  193. Dubee Dubee Du says:

    through the night with the light. Damn it get it right. Exhume Kate

  194. Brett Myers says:

    I still hate how those fuckers from New York had to conspire to take away Philly’s greatest Baseball legacy

  195. will.H says:

    i hope those people are alright.. you know the ones that flew directly through the mother fucking sun

  196. Mike P says:

    @ Brett

    Fuck yeah! Did you hear that the Athletics are trying to move again? Granted, it’s to San Jose, but I feel like writing the owner and saying, “Dude! Bring them back to Philly, where they belong!”

  197. Morandini's Triple Play says:

    It would be great, but you’d have to do it over Monty’s dead body.

  198. Brett Myers says:

    YES, ADAM FUCKIN’ WAINWRIGHT TIME!!!

    Mike P: and yeah dude, I think we should try to get some big fucking petition going to move the Athletics back to Philly…or at least to New Jersey or Delaware or something.

  199. will.H says:

    Kurt Suzuki vs Carlos Ruiz in a Spanish karate match

  200. will.H says:

    haha a waino curve ball. I wonder if beltran was “watching”

  201. Mike P says:

    Is Matt Holliday the worst fielder ever? I swear.

    @ Brett

    The Wildwood Athletics?

  202. Brett Myers says:

    Ouch… and now here’s Kinsler :(

  203. kurt says:

    Ibanez would’ve had that catch.

  204. Brett Myers says:

    And I would rake out my eyes if the Athletics moved to some douchebaggery paradise like Wildwood!

    Wilmington or Vorhees Athletics would be pretty neat though

  205. Dubee Dubee Du says:

    Getting the A’s back would be sweet. yeah, but just look what the Orioles owner did when they wanted to bring the Nats to Washington. He owns all of the Nats TV rights.

  206. Mark says:

    This guy can’t be all that good. He had as many wins all last season as Ubaldo will have by July 20th.

  207. Brett Myers says:

    C’mon WANGwright, stick it to the AL!

  208. Mark says:

    “Note to self: Wait a minute to hit ‘Submit Comment’.”

  209. Dubee Dubee Du says:

    This is where Charlie wishes Infante could close.

  210. Brett Myers says:

    So I heard Cholly snuck Brad Lidge into the All-Star game by some loophole…BEWARE THE NINTH!

  211. Mike P says:

    I would love to have the A’s back, too, but unfortunately, it would never work with that team’s ownership. In order to succeed in a two-team town, you have to have both ownerships competing with each other to put a successful product on the field. Otherwise, the fans will just abandon the losing team in favor of the winners. That’s what happened to the A’s in Philly by the early 1950s, when the Whiz Kids were capturing everyone’s attention. In order to succeed in our region, they’d have to get owners that will actually pay for a great team. No more of this Moneyball nonsense.

  212. Dubee Dubee Du says:

    Hey guys Im going to be heading out my living room this weekend for the Cubbie series anyone gonna be come out? Give me a shout we can meet in the backyard by the trampoline, grab a couple tastycakes or sumpin.

  213. RicoBrogna says:

    Mike P,
    Your absolutely right about byrd. Took the long way to be an all star thats for sure. I always appreciated marlon’s efforts as a phil!

  214. Brett Myers says:

    I actually like the Moneyball concept and everything, but it’s pretty obvious that it only really works some of the time…and the Athletics would have to field a consistently good team to compete against the Phillies and make fans want to attend games for both.

  215. Dubee Dubee Du says:

    Well whos in the pen? Wags, Rhodes, Meeks

  216. Brett Myers says:

    Oh no, the NL apparently now has GOOD GOOD VIBRATIONS on the mound!!!

    Implosion imminent?

  217. Tyson says:

    If there’s anyone on the face of the planet I hate more than Howard Eskin, it would be Joe Buck. Fuck you, Joe.

  218. RicoBrogna says:

    what about combining the athletics into the phillies call em the athletic phillies! wait do the athletics have any major leaguers on their roster that could win a spot on this club? guess they would make a good bench tho!

  219. Dubee Dubee Du says:

    Ahh yes Wilson.

  220. will.H says:

    brian wilson is now teammates with pat the bat. I wonder if they talk about pats ol’ walkoff

  221. RicoBrogna says:

    Remember Glenn Wilson? He had a fuckin cannon in right field!

  222. phillygirl says:

    the athletic phillies hahaha

  223. will.H says:

    im pretty sure if they combined the A’s and the Phils, every philly would start their respective positions

  224. Mike P says:

    @ Rico

    They could play doubleheaders everyday at the Bank: one against the NL, one against the AL. They could change uniforms in-between (of course, the Athletics would be going back to the old white and blues). The away game schedule might be a problem, though…

  225. will.H says:

    david wright gave brian wilson his fairy shoes

  226. PhillyPhanInChi says:

    I’m a fan of Wilson’s shoes

  227. will.H says:

    in 70 years, do you think they’ll build the ‘throw back’ stadiums like they do today? What im saying is.. im dying for them to replicate the Vet when im 97 years old.

  228. RicoBrogna says:

    Mike
    I love that idea! Especially them wearin the white and blues! We have to make this happen!

  229. Brett Myers says:

    Connie Mack = Greatest Baseball Owner/Manager ever

  230. Brett Myers says:

    LOL 2 Phormer Phillies coming up this inning…Byrd and Bourn!!!

  231. CTM says:

    …eh, I’d hit it.

  232. PhillyPhanInChi says:

    Multisport stadium replication will be imminent when your 97 because every city will have 3 teams of each sport….That being said, I think baseball after march should be banned in the state of FL

  233. will.H says:

    CTM, you mean a Broxton fastball late in the game?

    mattstairsjimmyrollins’d

  234. RicoBrogna says:

    looks like nothings changed for bourn since he left philly.

  235. Brett Myers says:

    Hey, how about moving the Florida Marlins to fucking Trenton or something?

  236. CTM says:

    Whew. Well he IS on the Astros…

  237. Dubee Dubee Du says:

    can’t steal first base son.

  238. maria says:

    Broxton in the 9th? Seriously, Charlie.

  239. Not White says:

    LMAO @ Bourn…. hE caNT HIt… sMH.

  240. RicoBrogna says:

    aren’t the astros just the phillies south since ed wade took over?

  241. will.H says:

    heath bell is hilarious

  242. RicoBrogna says:

    lol @ dubee! right u are! +1!

  243. Dubee Dubee Du says:

    Cause they already have a minor league team in Trenton.

  244. J says:

    two of the ugliest ABs i’ve ever seen right there.

  245. will.H says:

    haha maria, he’s not facing any phillies no worries

  246. Mark says:

    Brett: There’s alright a buttload of nothing in Trenton, please don’t add in another lackluster attraction.

  247. Brett Myers says:

    You are shitting me, Cholly is seriously putting Broxton out for the 9th?

    …this is something I was afraid of :(

    At least he’s not Lidge, but still… *stomach pains*

  248. CTM says:

    Are they even TRYING to take pitches?

  249. maria says:

    Let’s just say, I’m not holding my breath.

  250. Mark says:

    Contact!!

  251. will.H says:

    you’re like david blaine

  252. CTM says:

    Cubs player who sucks too hard for me to remember the name of: “Boy I’m just having SO MUCH FUN striking out!”

  253. Brett Myers says:

    Big poopie will probably kill us :(

  254. will.H says:

    flat fucking fastball, here we got Jonathan hotpockets Broxton

  255. PhillyPhanInChi says:

    Was anyone surprised by that?

  256. maria says:

    Who else is left to pitch for the NL?

  257. Brett Myers says:

    I wonder if Mitch “The Pitch” Williams is available to pitch tonight…?

  258. PhillyPhanInChi says:

    Please Broxton, for the love of god, do not let someone named “Buck” beat you here….

  259. RicoBrogna says:

    Brett are you available to pitch?

  260. Dubee Dubee Du says:

    high pressure situation here, this is Broxton’s specialty. No sweat only one tater all year.

  261. Mark says:

    All I can hear right now is “STAIRS LIFTS ONE INTO THE NIGHT!”…..

    Maria: Rhodes, Meek, Lincecum Hudson Carpenter

  262. maria says:

    Broxton is a fucking joke.

  263. Brett Myers says:

    Sure, but you’ll have to load me up on Wild Turkey first!

  264. Matt Stairs says:

    Dear Mr. Broxton:

    Oh hai.

  265. Dubee Dubee Du says:

    You want that ? Who u think ur Matt fuckinh Stairs

  266. Phils Phan says:

  269. PhillyPhanInChi says:

  284. RicoBrogna says:

    Good night fightins! Good win and nice to see former phils helping out this year’s squad! We own the second half!

  285. CTM says:

    I’m choosing to place the whole victory on Cholly. So there.

  286. Mark says:

    someone take a picture of selig holding that bat!

  287. CTM says:

    Shut up Selig. Go back to your cave and fuck up baseball some more.

  288. Mark says:

    McCann’s unborn child can hit a homerun at CBP.

  289. Dubee Dubee Du says:

    Actually made it through the whole game. First time since 1996. Guess I should stay awake more often.

  290. Larry Jones says:

    I’d like to say hello to my wife at home. She’s pregnant.

    I’d also like to say hello to my girlfriend here. She’s pregnant, too.

  291. CTM says:

    I keep forgetting how fucking gigantic that guy is.

  292. Greenman! says:

    If Chooch was starting we would have won like 11-1, he’s so clutch.

  293. Mike P says:

    Steinbrenner’s Ghost: “Joooooeeeeee…. JOOOOOOOOOOOOOOEEEEEE….. Yooooouuuu’re fiiiiirreeeddd!”

  296. Howard Eskin says:

    I EAT COCK

  297. BravesNLChampions2010 says:

    ME TO HOWARD!

  298. kurt says:

    Dom Brown would’ve been the MVP.

  299. 4 years older than Moyer says:

    Is Steinbrenner still dead?

  300. George Steinbrenner says:

    Still dead. But I’m having my brain cryogenically preserved. When the technology catches up I’ll have it transplanted into the body of a young boy and I will begin again.
    That or a cyborg. Whatever is ready first.

    You haven’t seen the last of George Steinbrenner!

  301. Brian says:

    thanks mlb for starting the game at 8:50pm guaranteeing that no one on the east coast would see the end….

  302. Johnny Cakes says:

    No report on what Dom Brown had for breakfast?

    Kidding!
