It is a BEAUTIFUL time of the year. Well, not here in Philly since I almost crashed my car on 76 yesterday due to the horribleness of snow, but in Clearwater it is lovely. And I'm not talking just about the palm trees, white sandy beaches or blue ocean. I am talking about the Kings Of Philly showing up at camp to let the Phillies brass know that they are good little boys. To prevent me from rambling on about how excited I am, I will just list some things that are on my mind as Spring Training officially begins.- Pat Burrell is engaged, which brought a slight tear to my eye. How can this site stay up and running if we can't still talk about his massive pimping ability? I guess it's nice that he is settling down or whatever, but come on Pat...you could have become the first male ever to sleep with EVERY woman EVER!!!
- It is wonderful to see players report early. Especially our franchise boys, Utley and Howard. Nothing clever to say here, it is just a nice situation.
- Pat Burrell was interviewed and asked all the dumb questions we knew were coming. And he said ALL the right things. He is putting last year behind him (even though it wasn't nearly as bad as this world thinks) and is looking forward to help the team in 2007. He didn't bitch, complain or make excuses. Also, every article ever written about Burrell that shows up on MLB.com has the numbers .222 somewhere in there. Ken Mandel HAS to remind everyone of RISP. I'd like to see "Pat Burrell had a down year in homeruns and RBIs last season although he did remain constant with his OBP and only hit 3 less homeruns in 100 less ABs."
- I will be rooting for Coste AGAIN this spring. If you told me on September 24, after the Phillies beat the Marlins thanks largely to Coste's clutch 3-run homer, that Chris would be fighting for a spot this spring, I'd call you a Nazi and slap your mother. Well...thankfully you didn't tell me that cause I would look like a fool for degrading your momma for no reason.
- Non-Phillies related. But Carlos Zambrano, while he is an absolutely amazing talent, has turned into a cocky ass. Here, he talks about how is walking from the Cubs if an extension isn't given before the season starts. He refers to himself as the "Big-Z." What a prick. Maybe I am just being unrealistic in this day and age, but its depressing to see a player that cares only about money and not being on a team that wants him or has a chance to win.
All in all, this picture will give all phans a reason to smile
And another homerun question for you all to ponder...
Who will hit more homeruns, Burrell or Utley?

I got Burrell hitting more
I think Burrell will hit more this year DEPENDING on how Manuel plays him. If he keeps getting yanked in the 7th or even the 6th like last year, then Utley will hit more.
Also, just cuz he's getting married doesn't mean Burrell will stop spreading his seed. Any woman who agrees to marry him knows that Pat must dip his Bat. "It's not an opinion, it's a fact of FRIGGIN' life, Meatwad."
Nice ATHF reference
I think this year will be a blowout for Burrell. Just a hunch
I'd really like to see Burrell hit more.
I'd like to point out that Zima starts with a letter Z too, and like Zambrano, they're both shitty.
Burrell 37, Utley 33.
And for good measure, Howard 1,219.
UTTTTTT
HAHAHAHAHA.
Zambrano is such a freakin pompous Queef. I hope he blows out his arm this year and the doctor mis-diagnoses (sic?) him because he was speaking in third-person.
Carlos Zambrano: What a Jackass.
No-one is ever bigger than the game and when players start to think that way they are gone.
Muller- I really like you now. First you use "fuck" in your post, now you use "queef" aka pussy fart in a comment. You're my boy!
