5. 158-4 for my beloved Phillies.
They did good today.

Dreading the weekend series against the Cubs - they're well-matched. Should be interesting. :) And I'll be there, baby! Under the lights on Saturday night! :woohoo:

10. Fun! A friend of mine got married in Philly about ten years ago and his new brother in law swore
that I looked just like Tug McGraw, his favorite Philly. I did kind of then, and I do now just before he died.... :(

to ascertain whether or not I've just been insulted! :P

16. I've done a little reading on wiki:
Raised by his mother in Start, Louisiana east of Monroe, Louisiana, McGraw grew up believing his stepfather, Horace Smith, was his birth father. At age eleven McGraw discovered his birth certificate while searching his mother's closet to find pictures for a school project. After his discovery, his mother revealed that his biological father was Tug McGraw, and took Tim to meet him for the first time.<3> At first, Tug denied being Tim's father. Tim was 18 years old when Tug first realized how much Tim looked like him at that age, and the two remained close until Tug's death in 2004.


Looks like a real character:

22. Awww,Tugger - RIP....he was one of the icons when
we won the World Series in 1980. Tug, Pete Rose, Mike Schmidt, Steve Carlton, Bake McBride, Gary Maddox....

Damn - I miss the good ol' days.

I got to meet Tug in 2000 - they had a "reunion" parade and ceremony for them during one of the baseball games. Afterward, my brother and I asked around and found out where the 1980 team was hanging out. We found them, but Tug was the only one actually interested in meeting his fans, or so it seemed. He was friendly, shook my brother's hand, and gave me a hug. Oh - and signed my baseball. :)

Good times.
