That's No Moon

What's nice about this is I'm half a Phillies fan at best. I've lived here most of my life at this point but obviously grew up in a place with no MLB team. I don't have any particular loyalty to the Phillies. If I move again it will be easy to switch teams again. That means that tonight I'm not angry or even that disappointed. It's kinda of like "oh well". Is that what it's like to be a casual fan? Football and hockey don't do that to me. The Bills legitimately annoy me often and the Sabres are like the child who never stops disappointing you. You keep watching because you feel like you owe it to them to try to care but you know they will mess it up in the end.

Steampunk dirigibles.

Honestly, I don't care. People are going to dislike what I said, that's fine. The next time you get called out at the office by someone who is a non-contributor let me know how motivating you find that. Besides, if they needed a meeting to get themselves together at this point there are much bigger problems.

To quote Shorsey, "For what??"

Harper and Schwarber in the yard, pitching couldn't handle the pressure, nobody else in the offense stepped up. Good night, Irene.

See, the difference is that Hardman was actually good for KC before. Ankou stunk for the Bills before.

he's not good enough for the Falcons, but sure sign him up. CHAMPIONSHIP!

It's funny that it's a Progressive commercial. They too could be home with Baker Mayfield these playoffs.

No, it's actually depressing.

If the Saints want to move on from this disgrace to humanity I'm listening.

He needs to clap harder.

No No Yes Yes No 4 Yes Never

Call in Bruce Smith then, he's making as many plays as Von is.

You taking bets? If he was really a leader he'd have grabbed one of the younger guys to lead it and told the younger guy specifically to call him out in the meeting. Why didn't Milano call it? Nobody would argue with his credibility with the team. The answer is simple, he's not contributing on the field. Neither is Von.

Von has no business calling that meeting right now. Players who contribute should. A contract doesn't make you a leader and he sucks on the field right now

Desperation has that effect

Because it doesn't matter in the end. Shakir or Davis makes no difference.

Throwing deck chairs off the Titanic.

Just like the other team we are probably alluding to, the Phillies are fundamentally flawed as a team and are relying entirely too much upon a small number of things to repeatedly go right and for players to continually do unusual things. The structural flaws are their bullpen and their strikeout ratio. They'll lose the World Series exactly the same way they lost it last year. One or two bats will go cold and they won't be able to get people out in key spots. There has been a lot made of the number of solo home runs they've been hitting recently. That is as damning an indicator as anything. Nobody has been getting on base. Keep Schwarber and Harper in the yard and you win. Hell, go ahead and walk them both. Bohm and Realmuto are good for at least 1 DP a game. Stott hasn't hit a ball hard in weeks. Castellanos forgot what a strike looks like and if you're getting beaten by Marsh and Rojas you shouldn't be in the WS to start with.

I'm glad he was feeling well enough to shoot an insurance commercial.

He's done.

You can't predict a 33 year old speed rusher with an injury history getting injured? 🤔
