So ALS Night/the Phillies' Phestival at Citizens Bank Park was pretty fun this year.  During the Phestivities, I got to...

* Meet Mr. Perfect, Roy Halladay (my dad met him, too!).  He was really nice, very down to earth, and absolutely GORGEOUS in person.  TV/photographs do not do him justice.  He's got amazing blue eyes and a seriously perfect smile! 

* Meet Cole Hamels, who gets hotter every year, and give him a hug.  He told me it meant a lot to him when I said he was my favorite Phillie! 

* Get a big hug from Phoebe Phanatic--the Phanatic's mom

* Meet Ross Gload (looooooovely spiky hair) and Chad Durbin--both of whom were very nice and VERY attractive!

* Take pictures of many of my other favorite Phillies, including CHUTTLES, Brad Lidge, Ryan "I fought the chair, and the chair won" Madson, and the Flyin' Hawaiian.  I also got a baseball signed by JC Romero in a grab bag I'd bought.  All in all, a really fun night (and all for a good cause, too!).  Now if only those Phillies (besides Doc, who was literally perfect!) could get their act together and, like, score some runs...that'd be awesome.  I know there are names for fears of crossing bridges and walking under ladders...is there a word to describe "fear of crossing home plate"?  Because I think the Phillies may be crippled by that silly fear lately...

Hamels pitches tonight.  Let's go, BILFy McBILF!!!!  Let's go, Phillies!

Tue, 04 May 2010 10:27:19 -0700 The Good, The Bad, and The Stupid (and, as always, The Hot) http://thatbilfgirl.posterous.com/the-good-the-bad-and-the-stupid-and-as-always http://thatbilfgirl.posterous.com/the-good-the-bad-and-the-stupid-and-as-always

It's been a wild past few days for us Phillies fans, huh?

The good: Taking 2 out of 3 in this past weekend's series with the Mets.  Combining Saturday's and Sunday's runs, we had 21...to their 5.  Love it!  Santana got shelled (love that, too).  Victorino hit a grand slam.  Doc was incredible, and Moyer put forth a pretty solid effort (who'd have thought he'd outlast Johan the Great?  AND be the guy that gets walked so that a run scores?)  Beautiful.  Just beautiful.

Of course, there's the bad: We got our asses handed to us on Friday.  Kendrick still sucks.  And people like this moron infested my lovely city of Philadelphia all weekend long.

And then there's the stupid: Ryan Madson, I'm looking at you.  Kicking a chair out of frustration and breaking your toe?  STUPID.  Also, moronic Phillies fan who ran onto the field and got Tasered?  Between you and Vomiting Phillies Fan from a few weeks ago, you're making us ALL look like jackasses.  (We're not all jackasses.  But the nice/cool Phillies fans don't seem to make many headlines.)

And, finally, the hot: We saw the return of Brad Lidge, and damn, have I missed watching him!  He didn't implode, which is also hot (not that he really had a chance to, though).  And the hottest thing of all?  In 20 days, I'm gonna be meeting COLE HAMELS.  I got my Photo Booth ticket in the mail yesterday...I'm already so excited/hyperactive/etc!  *squeal*  Yes, I know, I've met Hamels before.  But he's still hot, and so I want to meet him again.  I cannot believe I have almost 3 weeks to wait!  At least between now and then I'll be going to a Twins game, which will temporarily distract me from Hamels-related hyperness (although hopefully I get my voice back in time to meet Hamels...screaming at all the gorgeous Twins can really take its toll on one's throat, you know!)

Right now both of my teams (Phillies and Twins) are in first place.  Not by much, but by enough.  And hopefully they both keep kickin' butt...  :)

This is a seriously awesome photo gallery.  I think if I'd been at Penn Station when the Phillies showed up, I would have died of happiness. 

Cole Hamels (picture 5) looks like a freakin' GQ model.  I swear I got weak in the knees when I saw that picture, and I was sitting down.  The picture of the Madsons (picture 9) is so cute.  Cliff Lee (picture 10) is total studliness when he's dressed up.  But I've gotta say, as much as I love Jayson Werth's home runs lately, he looks like a total tool in picture 2.

Also, it's nice to see that Newsday isn't trash-talking the Phillies like the Post is.  Now that's good journalism there.

Thu, 10 Sep 2009 08:59:13 -0700 On wins and Stepford husbands... http://thatbilfgirl.posterous.com/on-wins-and-stepford-husbands http://thatbilfgirl.posterous.com/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...

Mon, 24 Aug 2009 10:57:24 -0700 Hey, Mets--NOW who's amazin'? http://thatbilfgirl.posterous.com/hey-mets-now-whos-amazin http://thatbilfgirl.posterous.com/hey-mets-now-whos-amazin
Sunday's Phillies game was one of the most exciting games I've ever been to.

2 Phillies 3-run homers in the first?  Check.

Ollie Perez removed from the game in the middle of pitching...to the Phillies' pitcher?  Check.

Pedro's first Phillies start against his former team?  Check.

An inside-the-park home run for the Mets in the first inning (due to the ball Pagan hit getting caught in the bottom of the outfield wall)?  Check.

Me complaining that Bruntlett was in the game instead of Utley?  Check.

Several really crazy plays?  Check.

The Phillies' Manuel getting ejected in the ninth?  Check.

An unassisted triple play by Bruntlett to end the game?  (Phillies win it, 9-7!)  Check.

Lots of "OMG WTF THIS IS AWESOME!!!!" type of cheering?  Check.

Me finally being grateful Bruntlett was in the game?  Also check.

And click here and here for a couple good articles about the game.

CLIFF LEE (the hotness!) takes the mound today for the last Phillies game at Citi Field this season...let's hope he can take those pesky Mets down easily!
