devastation....

i, like everyone else, am completely heartbroken. he was one of my favorite players on the team. actually, he might have been my favorite, along with westbrook and akers (yes yes i know, he's the kicker...but i don't care he's still my favorite. :)  )

...and just when i thought i could come to terms with this mind-numbing loss, i learned that correll buckhalter, jon runyan, and lito sheppard are also gone.

my uncle, who is a long-time season ticket holder, cancelled them. 

i've been having serious conversations with myself on leaving the eagles altogether and switching to a team in the afc. (i know i know, it would be a hasty decision....all i'm saying is the eagles better make up for this and sign someone just as good as those 3, and then i'll think about it.)

but now that that's off my chest, not completely, but close...let's get to those phils...

they, at least, are not breaking my heart into a million pieces.

they won their last two games, against the rays and the braves, with the scores 12-5 and 7-3, respectively.

and, we got to see pat the bat in his new uniform (speaking of philly giants leaving...), and also saw that he received a warm ovation from the home crowd in clearwater. i miss pat, and it was good to see him again, even if it was on the opposing team.

tomorrow, while the entire northeast is enjoying their 12 inches of snow, the phils will be hard at work in sunny florida, where they'll play the blue jays @ 1:05.

LET'S GO PHILS!!!
