the phillies?
yes, the phillies. you are not reading some of my painful fiction.
i live in the philadelphia region - i grew up on these sports teams, following the eagles through thick and thin. i remember the pain mitch williams caused in 1993.
but what i am seeing down there in south philly is encouraging. this could be something. the stick-to-it-iveness of thursday night’s game was something else.

it was a thriller. lets hope the remaining 6 games (and i predict it will go six more) are just as amazing as this one was. at the very least the games are a distraction from the LARGE trouble in the world today.
a sox/phillies world series would be a nice shot in the arm. i guess all things are possible.
