city of pain

Let me just say this. I don’t know who is going to win this series, but I sure don’t hear any of these Yankee fans chirping today. You fucking frauds, where are you? Maybe before you started running your mouths you should have taken a look at the Phillies postseason record the past two seasons. It’s 19-5, including 10-1 at home. And you douchebags thought you’d just walk into the ballpark and beat the Phillies because you are the Yankees. Please, spare me. Take a look at the rosters, take a look at the experience on the Phillies team, and take a look at who has been there recently.

All I hear out of Yankees fans is how obnoxious Phillies fans are. That’s funny. Maybe you’ll have to re-adjust that ‘Yanks in 6′ prediction you guys had at the beginning of yesterday. I hope Pedro goes out and shuts you down again, because I’m sure as fuck not scared of AJ Burnett. But I guess you’ll just win the next four right?

I’m not one for pre-game analysis and predictions. In fact, I fucking hate them. I saw dyed-hair douche tits AJ Pierzynski today on that abortion of a show “ESPN’s First Take” and they asked him what it would take for the Yankees to win the series. After dropping his pants, slobbering all over himself, rubbing his genitals over glossy pictures of Derek Jeter, and performing mock simulations of how he will perform oral sex on A-Rod after the Yanks sweep, they asked him the same question regarding the Phillies.

His response: “Well, I have to admit I’m trying to figure out a way the Phillies have any chance in this series and I really can’t think of any.”

This coming from a major league player who has won a world series ring in the past 5 years. Awesome. Hey ESPN, for your next segment why don’t you have one of your interns take a huge shit in the toilet and ask its opinion on next year’s Kentucky Derby. The point here being, no one is picking the Phillies to win. Yea you might hear some analysts say it will go 6 or 7 games, but they’re all picking New York.

Phillies Fans, I implore you to turn off all pre-game shit, stop reading experts picks, and forget about it all. Nobody knows what will happen (except Biff from Back to the Future). Obviously no one has watched the Phillies play all year. Apparently too many people were watching the Yankees to notice a team that is probably better than them. It’s cool because even when the Phils ’shock the world’, it will be because New York didn’t play well. The only way the Phillies will get any credit is if we win every game 15-3.

You moron Yankees fans seem to have a short memory (see Florida Marlins 2003 World Champions).

Here’s the final installment of the City of Pain video rememory of the Phillies’ championship. Today, we look at the parade (along with some of the non-riot moments of the celebration). Hopefully, we’re lucky enough to see this again in our lifetimes. Even if it involves Andy Reid.

so here in part two of city of pain’s rememory of the phillies world series victory, we turn our gaze to the aftermath. we’ve got some car flipping, some curse wording and some bottle throwing. and i don’t regret leaving the ballpark as fast as possible to escape this madness. it’s like day of the dead except the zombies are just drunk philadelphians with bad grammar and cases of natty light.

this is the first installment of the city of pain video recap of the phillies championship, riots and parade. it kind of sucks that most of the game shots are from the stands and therefore look like they’re being shot during an earthquake by someone having a seizure. but from the chants of CC to the huge home runs, these capture the moments pretty well. if you’ve got more to add, just leave the links in the comments.
