WHERE IS YOUR GOD NOW, COLORADO?

So my hometown Philadelphia Phillies may be eating their Wheaties, but they are apparently still hungry, as they are absolutely FEASTING on their opponent's pitching this week. In the last 23 innings, they have scored, as of this writing, FORTY TWO RUNS. 15 against Houston on Sunday, 20 against God's Team, Your National League Champion Colorado Rockies last night, and now seven in five innings against those same Rockies.

The 20-run game is especially sweet, as we had to suffer through the Phils being swept out of the playoffs at the hands of the Rockies due to some particularly lifeless bats and inconsistent pitching on the part of Los Philadelphia Phillies of Philadelphia. Sure, we could have used some of these runs back in October, but revenge is a dish best served cold, I suppose.

The Philadelphia-based bitches could not let last night pass without pointing out that Chase Utley, he of the dreamy eyes and dreamier dimples, had six RBI all on his lonesome last night. This fact sent this bitch dancing around her basement last night, despite the fact that he's not on my fantasy team, because anytime the Good Lord gives your favorite position player a six RBI night, it's cause for celebration.

Phear the Phightin's, y'all. They're coming after you. (Florida? You should probably look out. I wouldn't want to get in the way of this juggernaut.)

This actually winning at the beginning of the season stuff is kinda fun, no?

Also, that Florida tag is officially my latest favorite tag on our extremely ridiculous and entertaining list of tags.

I think I should be allowed to tag everyone's posts.
