Time for a Sports rant
Ok I love sports. Anyone and everyone who knows me will tell you I love my sports. I know stats and figures and salaries and things supposedly no girl should know. Well I am on a rant. My penguins first place in their division lost out first rd in the NHL playoffs! Why? It's simple they can not beat the flyers at home. Now my pens lost so I being faithful to PA was rooting on the Flyers who lost it all to the devils in Rd 2. What's a girl to do? I can not will not in any way shape or form cheer for the devils. NO WAY NOT HAPPENING. Anywho if anyone has ideas on who I should root on the rest of the way kindly let me know
And Baseball really the Phillies were swept by the METS! Come on They trailed after five innings against Roy Halladay on Monday, after six against Joe Blanton on Tuesday and after six against Cliff Lee in the series finale. The five-time defending NL East champions are a season-worst four games under .500 at 14-18. The Mets (18-13) are five games above .500 for the first time since July 19, 2010. Lee left with a 4-2 lead, but Kyle Kendrick (0-3) quickly gave that up. Kendrick, booed loudly in the seventh, stayed in to start the eighth. He gave up a double to David Wright and a broken-bat RBI double to Scott Hairston before exiting. Fans mockingly cheered when Manuel came out to take the ball from Kendrick. He heard more boos on his way to the dugout.
One batter after right fielder Hunter Pence dropped a routine fly ball for an error, Davis hit a towering drive off Jose Contreras that bounced off the facing of the second deck.
The Mets last swept the Phillies in a three-game series in Philadelphia on June 13-15, 2006
What's the problem 1 is the bullpen for heaven's sake leave the starters in the closer is fine the starters are fine it is the bullpen. Of course offense is also a problem. I remind myself the phillies are notorious slow starters but this is going to make for a long baseball season if they do not start producing. Also I totally disagreed with resigning of Jimmy Rollins his lackluster performance and diva attitude last season totally turned me off and he is continuing to do the same thing this season. He should be a leader in the clubhouse and on the field with an average of only .223 he needs to be doing a lot more to prove he deserves his contract
Ok enough is enough rant over enjoy your sporting events one and all!!!!!
