Ryan Howard = overrated.
Utley = overrated, he nor Howard can stay healthy
Rollins = getting older like most of the other Philly players and also becoming an injury bug
Polanco = old and injured a lot
Halladay/Lee/Hamels are the reason why I pick them to take the east again. But one goes down for extended time then they’re in troule, especially one of Halladay or Lee.

I really haven’t seen a lot of Philly fans talking trash this off-season. That team is aging and most fans are smart enough to know that they may well get one more good season out of these players, but it certainly isn’t guaranteed. The end is nigh, it may not be this year, but if not, it’s coming soon.

“Halladay/Lee/Hamels are the reason why I pick them to take the east again. But one goes down for extended time then they’re in troule, especially one of Halladay or Lee.”
They won’t be. They’d still win the division easily.
If the Phillies can have close to their entire starting lineup injured at one point or another along with basically their entire bullpen and STILL win over 100 games and dominate this division, nothing can stop them.

No, age can stop them, and it will. As I said earlier, they may squeeze one more season out of their lineup, maybe even two, but they have one of the oldest lineups in baseball and, eventually, they are going down.

Pizza without cheese is a fairly normal option out here…not that I would EVER order pizza without cheese… — cabravesfan
Pizza without cheese is a fairly easy-to-find option these days in any city in America that I know of. As is white pizza (pizza without tomato sauce). Maybe not at the likes of Domino’s and Little Caesar’s, but at your better pizza joints, it is. (Not that I’d ever get it; white pizza I like a lot, but as I’m not vegan or lactose-intolerant I don’t much see the point of getting a cheese-less pizza.)

I’ve tried white pizza several times. It ain’t terrible but it doesn’t do much for me either, and I want mine swimming in cheese. the place we order locally, the 16″ hand tossed pizza is so heavy with cheese and other ingredients that it dam near takes two of us old f@rts to carry it to the car.

I guess I’ll talk to myself for a bit here. I’d like to discuss a topic not known a lot about and that’s a situation I’ve been dealing with for almost seven years now. The thyroid. Diagnosed with hyperthyroidism, had radio iodine treament and was soon put on armour. I took a radio iodine pill back in July ‘06 and this had an immediate blasting effect on the thyroid gland. It killls a large part of the thyroid and here we are years later and that one pill I took will once in a while start killing off the gland. Very strange, but a fact.
What happens when the thyroid is being attacked is your TSH levels plummet making you feel like you’ve been dosed with some bad drugs and can even lead you to some scary places mentally. Sort of like a living nightmare. The doctor may up your thryoid pill dosage, but until this can build in your system to bump your levels back up you will feel very weak at times, irritable the next and damn near suicidal. Sometimes, on a bad day, you might feel all three.
At age 30 I have already come to realize that your health is most important. Give me good health, God and my family and you can keep your money and material things. It means absolutely nothing when compared my top three.
