    Thumbs up Congratulations Philladelphia Phillies and fans...

    ...on winning the 2008 World Series. You have no idea how hard it is for a lifetime Pirates fan to say that.

    Tampa Bay fans you have a lot to be proud of too in your young team that will be back again.

    I'm from SW Pa as well. Considering the Pirates, I'm just happy to see a Pa team win it. Brought back ALOT of memories as was 12yrs old in 1980 and got a ticket to one of the games- saw Tug McGraw in action. It was FANTASTIC to see the Phils do it again.

    I just got in as one of my co-workers called me as I was on my way home. His battery was dead, so I went back & got him jump started, so I missed the game. I LOVE Series where the teams are either 1st timers or teams that haven't won in awhile, & am a fan of Charlie Manual...he was in Cleveland at one time & is just a truly nice "good ol' boy". He loves fly fishing too! Glad to see Charlie rise to the top.
    Congrats to the Phillies, & kudos to the Rays on a fine run.

    As a lifelong Yankees fan and American League rooter I was rooting for the Rays. Besides Hazleton is a lot closer to me than Philly but...

    ...as a phormer Philadelphian who was BORN in Philadelphia I had more than a few family members busting my...uh...um...CHOPS!

    In any case the bad news is my team lost; the good news is I bet my kid brother a steak dinner on the outcome and any time steak is involved, I consider myself a winner even if I have to pay!

    Morton's here we come!!

    Congrats Phillies fans!

    I was glad to Jamie Moyer get a championship. He pitched in Seattle for many years and is a class act.

    I'm with Kerry on this one. Glad to see Jamie get it. He is one of the best guys in baseball and in the Seattle community.

    My only regret is that the season is over. Time to tie flies until April!!

    this Washington Nationals fan also will hold her breath and close her eyes and say

    WAY TO GO PHILLIES!!

    there. i don't feel better, but the occasion has been marked in suitable fashion.
    fly fishing and baseball share a totally deceptive simplicity; that's why they can both be lifelong pursuits.
