   My son was so depressed. We are a Yankee family. They are going to the game
   tonight-
   Prognosis looks grim to me…
   (what a catch that Phillies pitcher made last night!!!)

   Did he watch the whole game standing up?

   Crazy how much he looks like Dylan in some of those pictures. I take it she’s a philly fan too?

   I’m guessing that Rick will be voted MVP.

    Please tell your husband Thank You. I don’t think we would have won without him last night (He played right?! I assumed since he had on his uniform and was swinging a bat…)

    My hubby was the same way when the Rockies were still in the running … those damn east coast teams.

    Go Phillies…. beat the Yanks! I love the pictures!

    At least he was alone, you didn’t have to listen to his friends screaming for more ‘sandwiches and beer’ and clean up chips and dip off the carpet. I was a Yankee Fan when Joe DiMaggio, Phil Rizzuto and Mickey Mantle were playing.

    Oh, this is so great! Can’t wait for tonight’s game. I’m not a huge sports fan, but I’m close enough to Phila. to root for them. Besides so many people I know want them to win and I’m kind of a “rent-a-fan” for them. You want me to root for your team? I’m there!

    Love it! What a great team player Rick is! And I hate the damn Yankees, so GO PHILLIES!!

    There are one or two of those same guys in my house. As long as they don’t wake the twins it is all good with me. Go Phillies!

19. October 29, 2009 @ 4:53 pm, by Evan

    Go Philliens and Go Rick! While I don’t wear a jersey, I do stand up pretty much the whole game — and I don’t move positions of something good is happening. LT can tell you about that — I’ve made her stay still too! Go Phillies! Beat ‘dem Yankees!

20. October 29, 2009 @ 5:02 pm, by SoMi's Nilsa

    Did he watch the whole game standing up? And is this the real reason why you had to move out of the city?

21. October 29, 2009 @ 5:11 pm, by anna see

    i thought he was the same guy who has been hanging out in mine…until i saw the jersey. either way, the tv will be off limits to me for a while!

22. October 29, 2009 @ 5:17 pm, by Cathy

    that’s great! I remembere the article he wrote last year and figured there must be a lot of excitement at your house right now.

23. October 29, 2009 @ 6:17 pm, by rick

    First of all, I appreciate all the support for the Fightin’ Phils and for my game watching enthusiasm. For those wondering if I stood the entire game, the answer is no. But I stood just before Chase Utley (the Phillies’ version of Patrick Dempsey) hit his second homerun of the game. And after that, I figured I had to remain standing if the Phillies were going to maintain the lead and win the game. Obviously, I was right. Make sense? I’m sure you can understand. Go Pedro tonight! And go Phillies!

    that rocked.

    I LOVED it.

    How cute is my little cousin – my husband looks just like that and he’s a white sox fan!

26. October 29, 2009 @ 7:55 pm, by anna

    your guy should hang out with my guy, there’s a similar pic going on at our place!

    It ain’t over ’til it’s over, people. The better team shall prevail.

    Hmmmm…. I remember your staged pictures from New Year’s Eve. This has an eerily familiar feeling to it….

    

31. October 29, 2009 @ 11:05 pm, by Kelcey

    Not one of these photos was staged.

    That’s truly the scary part. I think he thought he was actually playing the game.

    Hilarious Kelcey!
    Go Rick!

33. October 30, 2009 @ 12:34 am, by marlene

34. October 30, 2009 @ 1:06 am, by jessica Bern

    these guys r so committed you’d swear they were ON the damn team

35. October 30, 2009 @ 11:01 am, by Jennifer

    these pics make me want to root for the phils! this coming from a born and bred yankees fan, though i feel so far removed from it here in TX where football is IT…i like the new logo, it really pops!

36. October 30, 2009 @ 6:14 pm, by Amy

    Yes, the Phillies won game 1. But the Yankees won game 2. They had to give one to Philly, right?

37. October 30, 2009 @ 8:59 pm, by flutter

    he was totally a ballplayer in his former life
