Rest easy, romo, the Rockies will ecilpse the Phils for ultimate futility. Coors field is a pitcher-killer, and the ROX must play half their games there forever. I've lobbied for a "designated outfielder" rule to be adapted for games in Denver, (whereas each team would field an extra , non-batting, outfielder) but my suggestion falls upon deaf ears.

| Re: 10,000 Losses!!! Alright Alright It takes a real Philly Fan(atic) from Philly to add to this post about our baseball teams record 10000 losses. Well they still need one more for the 10000 so lets see how long that takes. Also to blame the current players for past failures is kinda lame. There were 3 or 4 teams in the War years (the 40's) that lost over 100 games a year. Then in the early 60's one team lost a record 25(i think) games in a row. But in the history of the Phillies the low point has to be 1964 when the Phils had a 6-1/2 game lead with 12 games to play to win the pennant and proceeded to lose 10 games in a row and the Pennant. As a kid every year i heard that horror story over and over again. O yeah i wouldn't call being 4-1/2 out of 1st place current futilaty either T.Romo. And Sorry Simon about Briere. Yeah right. Ha Ha.

| Re: 10,000 Losses!!! Even with that many losses, I still have more respect for the Phillies than teams like the Yankees or Red Sox, who just try to buy the championship.
