    I sent you a pm Steve. I don't know if it went through or not because your option is off again.

    No problem. I'll just send it to Barry so he can wipe with it image

    Just kidding. It's a nice Kolb jersey rc if you care to know

    Grote15 sighting:

    Last seen after the Mets game at a NY corner bar featuring shots of cheap whiskey for a buck. Jerry was quoted as saying, "Forget about the shots and just leave me the whole bottle"

    Someone tell Endy Chavez not to run on our arms.

    That's what I'm trying to tell all you Sillies fans who think you got the division wrapped up...

    I prefer the Fox and the Grapes after you watch us pop the champagne and Kevin makes all kinds of excuses...LOL!!

    Mets take 2 of 3, could have swept them.

    "He who laughs last laughs best"

    Phillies fans laughed last, last season and we shall do so again. This is just a temporary setback.

    Chirpin' canary Pets fans enjoy your chirpin' while you can because the Phillies will win the NL East....and if that happens on the last day of the season then so be it...that would be fine with me.

    That's going to difficult when you're 8 games back with 7 to play, LOL!!!

    Sillies looking overwhelmed of late...Rollins showing up late to the ballpark, Moyer getting mad on the mound, this team is falling apart!
