Why Not?

The Phils Certainly Didnt Get here by Mistake...We Tore Through CC Sabathia and the Brewers...and Ripped Manny and the Dodgers a New one After that.

If Howard gets Hot and Victorino Stays Hot This Team is a Force...Hamels is just Plain Animalistic, Myers FINALLY got his Mojo Back and Joe Blanton is fitting in nicely with the Rotation.

My One concern is Moyer...who had a Magnificent Season but during the Postseason has Fucked us for Both of our Losses Vs the Brewers and the Dodgers.

And Brad Lidge well hes just downright Spectacular.

The Rays are a Young Team with NO Playoff Experience...I think the Phils have a Legit Shot.

Lets be honest here. The NL sucks. They have for several years. The Rays being young and no experience? Lets forget about that. They beat a Red Sox team who's won 2 of the last 4 WS. Thats out the door. Their pitching is tough. Their offense is unbelievable.

The Phillies are a good team. They tore through the Dodgers...but at the end of the day they are still a NL team...and the NL has proven time and time again they can't hang with the AL. All Star games, World Series, doesn't matter.


I'm rooting for the Phils, I hope they beat the shit out of Tampa.

St Louis Won 2 years ago...And they were a Powerhouse that year...You cant Place the Phillies as Automatic Underdogs because there in the NL, Thats Retarded.

And The Rays have ABSOLUTLY NO playoff expereince...While the Offense may be strong they let Boston come back from a 3 1 Deficit...Did the Phillies do that?? No

Its gonna be a good series...Cant wait till tommorrow.

Gotta agree on 2 things...

-The Phils are underdogs
-The Rays fans are bandwaggoners, except the 1,000 that showed up every night when they sucked... and long time ticket holder Dickey V!!!!

Should be a good series... im just worried about the Phils big layoff. If you all remember correctly what happened last year when the Rockies had a long layoff and my Tribe took Bo Town to game 7. The sox were hot and colorado cooled down... game, set, match...

It all comes down to how rested Tampa's arms can get, and how rusty Phillies bats are...

One Problem with Underdogs...They Usually Win.

One More problem...We have to many Bats to be Rusty, J Roll Victorino Howard and Burrell Want this just as much as the Fans...They wont be rusty...Phils win Game one Watch...

Amen... case in point, 2002 National Championship. Ohio State vs Miami U. Ohio State huge underdogs. Less talented, I don't think so. Outcome... Go Bucks!!
