My brother and the rest of my hometown will be quite effin' happy.
Congrats Phils.

Yup...The city will come unglued for sure. I remember it in 1980. Went to the parade, it was nuts! I live in jersey and the horns and fireworks have not stopped here.
Not to devalue the 2008 team that just conqured big time
---but I was a little hardcore baseball fan back in 1980
---the 2008 team may have won it this year but in my eyes I'm still picturing
Schmidt, Maddox, Luzinski, Trillo, McBride, Bowa, Carlton, and Rose.

you forgot Tug McGraw!! His son Tim sprinked Tugs ashes on the mound when he threw out the 1st pitch in game 3
I'm sorry,but teams like the BoSox,Yanks,Cubs,Mets,and Phils usually buy their way to the post season.
Teams like the Marlins,Rays and teams like that actually have to play their way there
Actually most of the PHILLIES stars and starters are from there farm teams like HOWARD/UTTLY/ROLLINS/HOMLES ,pretty much only LIDGE was a brought player
Apologies Tug Respect. RIP
(thanks for posting the article Bob)

I know I'm going to get killed here now but you guys know it's true
DUDE the phillies weren't in the post season for 14 years till last year were abysmal for most of the last 23 years. I have lived here for 30 years and didn't even appriciate the 80 team as I still had my alliegence to pittsburgh where I was born.
Yawn. I didn't go to any games this year, and I don't think I watched one complete game on TV. Baseball just doesn't have much appeal to me anymore. Congrats to those of you who give a crap.
