I've kicked around the idea of starting my own blog for quite some time but couldn't find the right muse......that was until today. Since the Yankees clinched the World Series for the 27th time last night there has been an explosion of bickering between Yankees, Phillies and for some reason Mets fans who like the jealous mutants they are, made the World Series about them. Nobody cares about your feelings Mets fans, you're not in hell because your division rival and cross town big brother are playing for a championship, you're in hell because your fanchise is led by a boob and your players lack balls. With my Met bashing portion of this post out of the way, let me get back on track. I am a diehard fan of the Fightin' Phils and fan of baseball overall. I like to think I am very objective when I break down baseball and sports in general. So let me attempt to break this down for the fans of the Phillies and Yankees once and for all.
Phillies fans have to accept the fact they lost the World Series fair and square. You can complain all you want that the Yankees go out every season and scoop up the best available free agent (this year three top free agents), but they still have to perform on the field. In order to perform on the field they might sometimes take performance enhancing drugs, but hey, at least they didn't know they were taking performance enhancing drugs. Cole Hamels on the other hand knew what he was doing when he agreed to appear in shitty, ridiculous commercials for Comcast and Ford. I'd rather read a bible sized book of Jason Deger Facebook posts than to watch those commericals. The fact that Cole appeared in these commericals along with his public appearance on the 4th of July in which he carried his teacup maltese in a little backback assured me that he was not a guy trying to defend a World Series Championship. 2009 Cole Hamels was like Rocky in the beginning of Rocky 3.......all caught up in his own hype, doing shitty commericals, losing his eye of the tiger. Hopefully Cole Finds Apollo this offseason so they can race down the beach and hug triumphantly when Cole gets his mojo back because THERE IS NO TOMORROW COLE.
You can try to find reasons why the Yankees won and the Phillies lost, I'll save you the time. It's obvious Jesus made Ryan Howard strike out 13 times and God made Matsui get the big hits to become MVP. Blame God and Jesus, they get all the praise when people do great, but in order to make some people great, some people have to fail. The one thing God and Jesus had nothing to do with the nightmare season of Brad Lidge. His fall from grace is no doubt a direct result of the deal he made to the dark angel Lucifer for his soul. Enjoy that World Series ring and perfect season in 2008 Brad while you burn in a lake of fire for eternity. I guess it could get worse, the dark angel could remove him from the lake of fire and put him in the Mets bullpen....but I think Brad would rather stay in the lake of fire.....okay so my Mets bashing isn't over.
Finally to all those Phillies and Yankees fans who watched 6 games this season, you know what games I'm talking about......okay, probably 4 games since one was on Halloween and the other one you didn't care about because the Phillies were already out of it.....please think carefully before you make posts. J-Roll, I hope your public predictions are over. You should have quit while you were ahead, but coming from a guy who appeared in MC Hammer videos as a kid I guess you're 2 legit 2 quit.
