Brad Penny leaves the game in the first inning. Braves plate a run in the top of the 8th to open a two run lead. Marlins are losing, right? Nope, a little small ball later followed by a Juan Pierre double down the first base line and the Marlins are 1.5 up on the Phils and less than 10 back of the Braves. Since the Marlins pretty much own the Phillies head to head...Giants better get ready.

This thread needs to be resurrected, because the Marlins are winning the fucking wild card. I was just dreaming as a fan of the team when I first posted this, but after tonight's come from behind against all odds win over the Braves in the 9th moving the Marlins 1.5 up on the Phils... I don't doubt it for a second. Phillies fans just need to realize that they gave it a good shot and sign a few more free agents.

Holy bragging, Batman. This isn't really the place for that, Boo. If you're going to do it, at least do it right. I'm 21 and am going to graduate with honors from one of the 10 best schools in the United States. To not become a millionaire in the next 20 years I practically have to be hit by a bus. I will be going to Berkeley on a full scholarship with the chance of a $27,500 a year NSF grant that would just give me spending money. In six or seven years when I'm Dr. Walsh I will pull in 100,000 a year bare minimum. I also lived in Australia for six months for just about no cost...and I saw the entire continent. But Boo, unlike you who bragged just to brag. I'm doing it for a reason. See, Dames, I was raised by a single parent and we never had a lot of money. Still don't. Coming out of high school, I was no superstar. I still ended up at a better school than all of my valedictorians because I refused to accept otherwise. Everyone laughed and told me that I'd fail out within the year and that I'm not smart enough to go to an Ivy League school. And I almost proved them right my first semester. It was all just too much for me. Fast forward 3 years and everything that can have gone right...has. I've made the Dean's List a few times, raised my GPA to 3.4 and have become pretty respected by the faculty of the number one nutritional biochemistry department in the country. Why? Because I never fucking gave up. I never sat down and felt sorry for myself...like half of the people giving you advice here did. If you want something in your life, go and take it man. You can't be a pussy and complain about your problems for the rest of your life. I will wager that you're smart enough to get it done. Any reason why you're not is nothing but excuses. YOU and YOU ALONE have to look at yourself in the mirror and get the fucking job done. You can do it. You sound smart enough on here. Now go and get it done.

Everyone I know is graduating college this year... in 4 years. And that includes all my high school friends.

I liked it, there's some good joints on it. I felt it to be at the very least equal to Watermelon, Chicken and Grits...if not better.

I think it's one of the most entertaining shows I've seen in quite some time. Everything is so over the top and the Host plays his role so perfectly. I love it. I can't wait to see why he is crying his eyes out in the previews for next week's show.

*realizes this isn't the thread for him, then quickly leaves*

It's a shame that they won't make the Playoffs. Just live with the fact that Marlins are making the playoffs already. It will make your life easier. Lowell is coming back for the last week of the regular season, as if it wasn't already predetermined without that. 97' rides again.

Max is correct. Conine will play LF and Cabrera is the new 3b. Go Fish!

And I shed a tear. Hopefully my Marlins can pull together, but this is bad news. Real bad.

Hey, at least they had a CHAMPION to sell the players off of. Something the Phillies haven't been able to claim since 1980. (Not that I condone the fire sale, it was a terrible experience in my life as a sports fan)

Well, they are in the market for a replacement. However, whoever they get isn't going to be nearly as good as Lowell. As long as they are in Pro Player, I'm confident they'll be ok. They win there. As for the Phillies, I am just sitting back and waiting for them to choke. Like they do every year they have a contendor, as well as every other team from the pathetic, cheesesteak infested hole that is Philadelphia (especially the Eagles)

Typo...whoops. Just one hand.

Hey Fish, I highly recommend you come up here in the boat. Everyone whose anyone is up here. We've got a keg of worms...and phytoplankton. ARROWED!! I picked strong bad, of course.

And Romanoski proves that he is still one of sports biggest scumbags. Didn't he spit in another players face? And wasn't race a factor? Asshole.

I found this forum well over a year ago when I was an avid wrestling fan, but ever since a lot of things have come up that stopped me from watching wrestling. I moved to Australia for six months, so no wrestling at all, mostly because I had no TV and I was too busy traveling. Then I came back and wrestling was terrible and I met a new girl, so no time for wrestling. Then this summer I have been away from home so much that I always forget to watch it. I tried to on Thursday but I found myself bored within 15 minutes. I still come here for the other forums, but I no longer watch wrestling. Any body else in a situation similar to mine?

It's easy to do when you have NO life at all. Choken One is the poster boy for person I never want to become.

Add me to the list of people who don't watch Buffy. The only Buffy I've ever seen is the movie...well before SMG took over.

Owen Wilson - Bottle Rocket and Shanghai Noon...Hell throw in Zoolander too.

Choken One is pretty much the poster child for having NO life. In the meantime...*ducks and covers from New Me's ejaculation*

Substitue Florida for Philly and White Sox for Royals and Keiper and I have the same exact scenario.

Braves vs. Cubs Marlins vs. Giants Yankees vs. A's Mariners vs. White Sox Braves vs. Marlins (upset special baby) A's vs. Mariners Marlins vs. A's Marlins... Hey it's plausible. When I did the Marlins wildcard thread they were only 3 games over .500 and look at now...haha. Go Fish!

Just in case New Me is wondering Fooster is reading this thread at 6:33 PM Eastern, Thursday. That is all.

Ok good point. But my custom title does say Ivy League superstar, lol. Whatever, I don't have time for this... And if you want to follow me around and ruin all the places I post, go for it. I'm lucky if I post 5 times a day.

Wait a second, your custom title says "Look out ladies, I'm legal now" but I'm the 15 year old acne ridden child? Someone must be proud to have just turned 16. Do you even know what Cornell is, or are you as stupid as you are making yourself look? Because if I were 15, I doubt I'd be there. Let alone graduating next semester. How does someone so stupid have such a cool avatar?
