On wins and Stepford husbands...
So the Phillies have been winning lately. Phinally. These wins haven't necessarily been pretty, but hey, they're wins...and wins are good. I'm glad that Charlie has finally come to his senses and has decided to mix up the closers, not using Lidge each time. Hopefully he didn't wait too long to do this--we lost some ground while Lidge was busy screwing up games. Hopefully Charlie will keep allowing Madson to pick up some closing duties--Myers, too, when he's fully ready. I'm kind of astounded that everybody's all excited that tonight we have the opportunity to sweep the Nationals. Like, how did the W-P-Champions get so bad that sweeping the Nationals is a significant and important achievement? Theoretically we should be good enough that sweeping a team as sub-par as the Nationals should be easy and routine and, therefore, nothing to get too excited over. Not so much lately, though. Also, gorgeous Cole Hamels has started really freaking people out with these advertisements. On the one hand, I do think he looks gorgeous in the pictures. On the other hand...I fear he's turning into a Stepford Husband. The weird expression on his face in the top picture where he's hugging the baby bump...the lounging on the bed with a smiling Heidi and two totally random kids in the second picture... Cole, what's going on? If you're going to lay around on beds with random people, consider choosing me next time... |
