bottom line the yankees have rivera and no one else does , unless lee throws a big time game again tonight the phillies are going to lose as the bullpen will fail

your first part of the second sentence is spot on but your first sentence is as far off as anything could possibly be far off.
First off.. we are the defending World Champions. You kinda have to be a good baseball team to win the World Series. If you want to believe they only won because every other team in baseball choked.. then whatever.
Phillies bats are cold right now. Consider yourself lucky maybe? The most powerful offense in baseball.. blew 18 saves and still was NEVER even 2nd place in their division. eliminate those saves and the Phillies are the best team in baseball by far win wise.
Are bullpen is shaky.. though its really one guy who is shaky... Durbin, Eyre, Chan Ho Park, Madson (as an 8th inning guy not a closer) have had very nice years. Lidge just flat out sucks at pitching baseballs.
You really dont know anything about baseball do you? Defending World champs and back to back NL pennant winners only did it because other teams choke? I cant tell you how much it pisses me off when you say crap like that. I hope we beat your team 25-0 tonite. I know we are going to lose the series but I hope we just beat the crap outta you guys tonite.
