Did you tell him you're a Phillies Phan?
(Brandy) only hinted at Halladay's personal issues during her Hall of Fame speech last July, when she said, "Roy would want everyone to know that people are not perfect. We're all imperfect and flawed in one way or another. We all struggle."

Wasn't one of our own involved in making this movie playing in November at the DOC NYC festival ? Lousy showtimes but it'll get seen by some

DOC NYC wrote:OPPOSITE FIELD

WORLD PREMIERE Jay Shapiro’s classic underdog sports story follows a baseball team with a dream. In its nearly 70-year history, the Little League World Series has never hosted a team from Africa. Ugandan coach George Mukhobe, mentoring his preteen players with a deep love and respect for America’s pastime, hopes to change that. Filmed over three years, this winning film captures the team as they encounter truly unexpected ups and downs in their quest to make history. Filmmaker is expected to be in person for both screenings.

Showtimes:
5:30 PM, Mon Nov 17 | IFC Center
10:45 AM, Tue Nov 18 | IFC Center
Yes, but in a double utley you can put your utley on top they other guy's utley, and you're the winner. (Swish)

Maddon uses opt-out clause that nobody seemed to know he had and leaves the Rays. Wow.

Maddon is too smart to come here but I would fire anyone and everyone and give him any job he wants,
