Would a full body scan be specific enough to get you out of doing that?

I understand what you are saying. The Mets were all out to beat the Cubs JV squad. But would you play your best team in a game that meant nothing for you that was in the middle of a monsoon? I know I wouldn't.

No chance, I'm just venting. The cubby bears blew a late lead, and now that we're in the nitty gritty stage of the season, it just irks me. The Phils control their own destiny, so they really have no one else to blame if they dont win the division. Always have to make it interesting though.

Phils should have no problem holding on for the division. I think they play the Nats while the Mets have the Marlins (who have it out for them). I have watched the Mets every night this week (with Yanks playing for nothing) and they are just not that good. The Mets had minor leaugers in big spots tonight (they actually came through), which you would think would be overmatched against a team playing their starters. Just be happy that the Mets pissed last nights game away. It was unbelievable. 3 games left for the Mets, Pelfrey tomorrow, probably Brandon Knight making his 2nd or 3rd start (still not announced) and then Santana on Sunday. The Phills should be a lock!

No such thing in Philly sports. I've known this since I was knee high to a duck. (waaay before Lomas Brown spouted off at the mouth about his Lions). We use all of our locks for homes, cars, and jewelry boxes.

The Marlins have been swingin the lumber as of late. I would be very worried if I were one of the Mets starters, knowing damn well if it gets to the bullpen, disaster can/will strike. Tons of pressure on them. As for the Nats, we SHOULD handle them. If we have any type of pulse that is. If they come in here and take 2 of 3 from the Phils, we don't deserve to be playing in October.

Can somebody tell me why you're allowed to run so far out of the baseline when you are coming to home plate? That Met that scored the tie run was nowhere near the baseline when he came to the plate. Same thing happened in a Dodger game the other day. They never call that.

I've only seen it called when rounding first or getting caught in a rundown. The umps knew the spotlight was on, they didnt want to upstage Hochuli just yet.
