Ruben Amaro you magnificent bastard! It took an extra year, but I finally got my two frontline aces (plus two more) that I've been longing for since the trade deadline of 2009.
The greatest man who ever lived, Clifton Phifer Lee, is back where he belongs, back in Philadelphia. I couldn't care less that Jayson Werth is gone now. (No offense Jayson, you were awesome.)
Roy Halladay, Cliff Lee, Roy Oswalt, Cole Hamels. I'm speechless. I really am. This is the best since the Phillies became World Fucking Champions.
Welcome back, Cliff. This is the best Christmas gift ever. I can't sleep at all. I'm too excited.
Fuck me. I had Sportscenter on in the background and I heard Lee and Amaro in the same sentence. At which point I shit my pants.
ReplyDeleteLeaving aside the fact that we may have the best starting pitching rotation in the history of baseball, that rotation includes Clifton Phifer Lee who mark my words will be our best pitcher next year.
Fuck me.
Excuse the late comment. I was on my Social Media Sabbatical last week. All my posts were written prior to Monday, and I had Ed post them for me, so this is literally the first time I have used the internet in seven days.
ReplyDeleteCongrats to having Cliff Lee back. The first thing I thought of was how happy you were to have the man return. I had NO...IDEA y'all were even in the running. None whatsoever. It's a great time to be a Philly fan, that's for sure.
