Yo, flvegan - my brother has given his official call for the 2009 World Series.

[BeachBaby]

It came via a text message.

"Boston is looking good. I think we can do it again. Poor pitching can be improved through the season. I'm going with a BoSox - Phils World Series."

Rob - while not ALWAYS correct - has been eerily accurate. Just sayin'.

[Midlodemocrat]

1. I'm going with a Mets - BoSox with the Mets taking the series in 4.

You may say I'm a dreamer, but I'm not the only one.

2. Hmmm

A fan of canines that have trouble swallowing.eh? gag cough choke...:rofl:

[BeachBaby]

4. You DO know what every Phillies fan hopes for, don't you?

It's ALL about beating the Mets in the division. Anything after that is icing. :7

12. Nice post, Buckner!

:P

[flvegan]

3. While he's correct about the Sox taking the Series, the Phils?

[BeachBaby]

8. WTF - did you talk to Rob?

Believe it or not, he's NOT biased. Not when it comes to calling shit like this.

He said your guys will win it.

Like I told the Bunco chick upthread - as long as we place above the Mets, we're good. Fuck Beltran.

5. Pffft. As if.

Nationals over Royals in 7

[EastTennesseeDem]

7. I just mailed Vegas a nickel I picked up off the ground

When you see me at the beginning of November, I'll be loaded.

[flvegan]

10. I suspect you may be loaded now.

11. Well-played sir.

You mean those same Royals the Phils slaughtered in 1980? George Brett - I'll never forget it - had a hemorroid issue during the World Series. He was quickly dubbed "Hemorroid Boy". :rofl:
