To address each of the above:
When did the Phillies whine? I don't think they have a reputation for whining unless you want to site specific examples.
Leave it to a woman to compare the sexual appeal of the players for the basis of a WS matchup.
The number of championships isn't a good predictor especially for this year since the Phillies are the defending champs. What do the Mets have to do with this?
um, the Rays won the AL East and then proceeded to take the AL Pennant and the Yankees didn't even earn the right to play in the post season.
Quakertown is the name of an actual town in Bucks County, not a nick name for Philadelphia. Are you trying to draw a parallel between William Penn and Batman, a fictional character? Rocky vs. Batman would have been more clever.
Great that you live here while everyone in NY will proceed to trash all of your neighbors as a bunch of low class thugs over the next 10 days. If you agree, why don't you go home.
The 2008 Phillies were better than the 2008 Yankees.
The better team in 2009 will be determined over the next couple of weeks. Until then, you guys have no ground to stand on.
And beardscraper, the Yankees haven't won anything in almost a decade.
People like her don't talk like that in real life.
Clint Eastwood
The Good (Phillies) vs The Bad & the Ugly (Yankees).
I wonder who Clint's rooting for ?
I hope he wasn't a Dodger fan.
Baltimore Bob
Nobody is suggesting that Yankees are not the most successful franchise in the history of baseball. But that's history.
You keep discounting last year's championship. Fact is, we were the best team in baseball last year, with a trophy to prove it.
A champion has not yet been crowned for this year. Until a champion is crowned, etc., etc., blah, blah. Got it?
It's like they always say in sports: Act like you've been there before.
Oh please! NY fans are just as bad as Philly fans, only without the exaggerated reputation.
