Go Phils!

Since I can't find anything interesting to say about Fantasy Football, and couldn't in good faith taunt Animal when I have to go and get 2 backup QBs, since my own backup has the same bye as my starters (idiot) I thought I'd go off-topic with what's monopolizing my time these days.

This guy - a late season acquisition - stepped up huge for the Phils on Monday. Here you see him crushing a fastball 10 rows back into the pavillion in L.A. He was still so excited at the post game press conference that he forgot that baseball players are supposed to answer questions with horribly cliche answers. I imagine as long as he stays with the Phillies, the other players won't miss a chance to remind him about this:

"You want to get that one big hit where you feel like you're part of the team,'' Stairs said. "Not that I don't feel like I'm part of the team, by no means, but when you get that nice celebration coming into the dugout and you're getting your ass hammered by guys, it's no better feeling than to have that done.''

Phillies fans love to create fan groups in the outfield to celebrate individual players. Wolf-pack. Sal's Pals. Chase's Chicks. Howard's Homers. The Padilla Flotilla. I hate to think of what they'd come up with for this guy.

I couldn't stand that other image. Period.

And this was funny… I hope. :-)

FAIL

Napoleon, I'd like to apologize. I'm sorry I teased you all weekend. You know you really had no chance. I'd shouldn't have let you hang around and let you get all starry-eyed. You could have spent your time chasing team in your own league, like the 49ers. Your roster of suck could have had a shot with those losers. Next time I'll put you out of your misery quicker. No need for you to look forward to Monday night.

Which brings me to my next worthy opponent, errrrrr, pitiful victim. Puppies, my whole roster plays in the early games, so this is going to quick and painless. You'll just feel a little prick and you'll go away.

While playing out the string for the rest of the year at the bottom of the standings you two can remember the glory days. Before you Millened your teams into the ground. Tom Brady and Tiki Barber aren't walkin' through that door. You didn't even drop/add your entire roster this week. It's really sad when you just lose the will to go on.
