It’s Outta Here!
My roommate from college called me a few hours ago. We met fifteen years ago, hanging out in a lounge in our dorm at Fordham. There were several baseball fans from Philadelphia and South Jersey, and we gathered to watch the Phillies beat the Braves in the NL Championship Series. I can remember watching the Blue Jays win that World Series.
As my roommate said tonight: “This is much better.”
I gave my wife my credit card, ’cause you could probably convince me to buy just about any old thing right now as long as it has “2008 World Champion Philadelphia Phillies” on it.
