As the World Series gets under way later tonight, I thought it would be interesting to take a look at the "frienemies" that will develop between fans in this year's World Series.

Hope you enjoy!

If you find the time to read and comment on both that would be great. The one on top is my month article dealing with all things Phillies. And the bottom is all about 300 wins for a pitcher.

Thanks,
Brian.

Hey,

Below is my preview for the Phillies 2009 Season. The only difference is I included the Phillies community into this one. It is quite long, but it is complete, I'll tell you that much. Spent a bunch of time on this, would appreciate it if you checked it out.

Wow, I wrote an article called Dear Pat Burrell. Never even realized you wrote it also. Sorry to use that idea man, but I read yours and they're pretty different. Read it if you get a chance.
