After being in Chicago without internet the last few days I wasn't able to get any bitching out.  So to catch up

-umpires need to get a pay raise so they aren't as susceptible to being on the take in the future.

-Phillie "fans" are scumbags and need to stop bitching about game 5.  Nobody would want to win the series in a shortened game.  Nobody.

-Longo and Los good to see you making contact again.  We need you fellas.

-Longo is getting pitched extremely well.  First couple games this series they were giving him heat over the outer edge early in the count.  He was taking and then made an adjustment by swinging at the stuff on the outer edge except now hes only getting breaking balls off the plate. 

-Can anybody drive the ball?

-Carl is swinging better. 

-Aki had a baaaaaad game 4.  I'm chalking that up to aligator skin not being made for the cold.

-Utley is good, but I may have had him overvalued.

-Howard should not even be able to foul off a pitch.  His swing is swiss.

-Scotty when you're getting squeezed don't keep throwing to the same spots.  Pat Burrell clearly spent a good 15 mins sucking some hot man chowder from the boys in blue.

-I only saw the first half of game 3 as I was exhausted, but I think we should have had Sonny go against Moyer.  If Andy gets the pitches Hoss got he would have thrown a CGSO. 

-There's a million other things to say, but I want to close by saying that if we can get this series back to the Berg we will not lose again this year.  I wish to lap up the eye-water of a million Phillie's fans for the next few months.  This is my only Christmas wish.  Make it happen or you might as well call me the next Jerramy Stevens because I am going to break every law in the book this off-season.
