    Yes, I am a huge baseball fan! And my Phillies won the World Series Wednesday night! I got to go to the parade and everything - it was fantastic!!! They haven't won it in 28 years. Now I'm excited about next year...

    Pitcher and catchers report to spring training in 103 days. Go Phils!

    Why is it called a world series when there are only the Americans that play it? Or is it more popular around the world than I thought?

    Oh, but congratulations on winning.

    Sir Bel, my company gave us the afternoon off to go to the parade - good thing, too, or I never would have made it home in time to get the kids ready for trick-or-treat, public transportation was sooooooooooooo messed up!

    I was on Walnut, less than half a block from Broad. Couldn't see much over the crowd, but I did catch a glimpse of the trophy, and the Phanatic, of course!

    See you in February, for the Superbowl parade?!?!?!?!?!?!

    I was on Walnut and Broad too! I was across the street from the Union League building, near the subway entrance! Too funny! I guess I missed you in the sea of people there!

    I took the subway from Citizens Bank to City Hall - but had to walk back. Luckily, it was a nice day! I also went to game 4...What an awesome but draining week!

    I was on the same side of the street! Did you happen to ever look down Walnut, when people were shouting "Cop, cop, cop!" because some ******* had climbed on top of a car and was waving his ~12-mo son around like Michael Jackson? I was right in front of that!

    I am a Rays fan.... congrats on the win though guys, you outplayed us. I am surprisingly not that upset though, because this year was amazing for the Rays and next year is looking even better, so I hope we can get to the playoffs again next year. I want a rematch :p

    We must have been pretty close to one another - I remember hearing that. I was near the newstand, just when you exit the subway. Too funny!
