I'm on the board less and less now due to law school taking up most of my time, so this is likely my last blog entry for a while.
Phils are tied for the wild card, if they win this next series with the Marlins I think they can take it.
I was at Eagles-Giants on Sunday, less said the better.
PA is fine.
See ya.
Ryan Howard won the HR derby last night, so that's one thing us Phils fans have to cheer about this year.
Bill Giles (part-owner of the Phillies) was saying moronic things in the papers today, such as "Brett Myers wasn't hitting his wife, he was helping her." Maybe Bill is just getting old....
I move to Pennsylvania in less than a month. Pretty exciting stuff, I just have to call Comcast now and see how much they're going to fuck me over with cable and internet fees, along with how muc
I'm going to try analyzing the coaching changes at the schools in the 6 BCS conferences and see who I think made the good hires and who may have struck out.
Seton Hall (Bobby Gonzalez) - The Pirates after firing Louis Orr decided to go with the rising star in NYC college hoops, lucking out and landing Bobby Gonzalez after St. John's decided to pass on him a couple of years ago in favor of Norm Roberts. Gonzalez comes to Seton Hall after a successful tenure at Manhattan, finishing over .500
Haven't made an entry in awhile, so I've got tons to talk about.
- Finally found an apartment for school next year up at Nova. It's in Devon, which is on the Main Line, and it wasn't too bad of a deal: $540 a month, and probably around $675 when utilities are added. I'm just really glad that its pretty much all over with regards to apartment-hunting.
- Ozzie Guillen called Jay Mariotti a fag. I don't see what the uproar is about, I despise Mariotti.
- Nova got Corey Stokes for the
Here's the entry I promised in an earlier blog about the Holy War:
VILLANOVA VS. SAINT JOSEPH'S
This rivalry is part of the Philadelphia Big 5, but it'd still be one even if there was no Big 5. The two schools are both Catholic, but they're very different. For starters, Nova is not even located in Philadelphia, but rather in the Main Line suburbs (the affluent part of the area, people like Allen Iverson and Andy Reid among others have gigantic houses there.) Saint Joseph's is closer to
I came to the realization today that my summer job is pretty fucking boring. Since I'm the senior member of the summer help (college kids), I basically run the 5-6 man group, which ends up with me telling the kids under me what to do, then napping the entire morning, having lunch, going for rides in the trucks that my work has, then zoning out until it's time to clock out. I can't complain though since I'm making 10 dollars an hour to do nothing all summer long.
Summer money is going to get
Picked up a good book today about the Big 5 called "The Big 5-0, The 50th Anniversary of the Philadelphia Big 5" at the local Barnes & Noble. Very good read about the history of the Big 5 teams in the city (Nova, Temple, Penn, Saint Joe's, and LaSalle) and the games between them. Also talks about the old traditions of streamers being thrown after the first basket and the rollouts. The rollouts would usually be something witty, unless it was something from Saint Joseph's, which in that case i
Phillies lost another one to the Brewers last night. After starting the month off so well it's pretty much back to the same old shit. They're going to be far behind the Mets and Braves if they keep this up, and hopefully the axe will finally fall on ol' Cholly. Meanwhile, Jim Leyland has the Tigers in first place, but the Phillies get stuck with that fucking idiot Cholly instead of him. ::Sigh::
Reports coming out of Kansas City say that if the Royals don't get the Braves assistant GM, then
