there seem to be a lot of people who dislike Philly teams
most say it is because the fans are rude, or some such thing
but we haven't had a winner, since...hmm, Rocky Balboa?
I say "we" tenderly, as I have never lived there
but my Dad grew up nearby and raised me on Phillies baseball
if they make it, will be bittersweet watching it without him
fathers & sons and baseball have always kind of gone hand-in-hand
