I don't know if I am the only one that noticed but Joe Buck's voice got really quiet when he said "the phillies deserved this." I really don't like Joe Buck, I feel he tries to make me feel like an ******* no matter what I am watching.

McCarver is a Mets guy, so you can't expect too much from him. Buck is just retarded, dunno what his excuse is, but he is a shitty announcer.

The worst combination around by far has to Aikman and Buck on FOX NFL Sunday, broadcasting an Eagles' game or a Cowboys' game. They'll talk down the Eagles all day, or put the Cowboys on a f-ing pedastool. I hate them for football!

Well, I went to the parade today and it was nutz. What a good time! My buddies and I were just south of Walnut on Broad (across from the Kimmell center) and we got there in time to get a close spot. Talk about a wild time. I've never seen that many people in my life. They were at least 30 people deep and in the larger intersections, they were a full city block deep all along the parade route. I'm curious to hear some estimates of turnout, I'd guess in the 3-4 million range.

I was at the parade too, man it was crazy......I was there in '80 so since my kid wanted to go i went, there were twice as many people there than back then but everyone was cool. Did alot of walking to catch up to them since the speedline was soooooo backed up with people but we did and got to see them close up and the kid got lots of good pics and vids. The players you can tell along with the fans were really taking it in and enjoying themselves too, it was a blast doing it again!
