Here are some observations from the Phillies’ ug-LEE (missed ya Cliff) 7-4 loss to New York.
Shout-Outs - Chickie’s and Pete’s, The Spectrum, and Tony Luke’s got some air time.
Movie Trailers - Sherlock Holmes (Robert Downey Jr.), Avatar (James Cameron), 2012, A Christmas Carol (Jim Carrey)
Fox Promos - The Human Target (Mark Valley)
Fox29 Promo - Good Day Philadelphia featuring Mike Jerrick
Eagles’ appearances - The Eagles’ win over the NY Giants and an animated Brian Westbrook in a commercial for KFC.
Didn’t You Know - As Joe Buck was going on about how wonderful Joe Blanton was pitching, Blanton would promptly give up two runs in the inning
Cole Hamels Triple Play - Cole Hamels starred in the Comcast Triple Play commercial. Too bad his triple play this post-season was lame performances in the NLDS, the NLCS, and the WS.
Who Will Play CC Sabathia in the movie - Forest Whitaker
Health Care Reform - The game featured ads for Prestiq, Cialis, Robitussin, Centrum, and the Fox Chase Cancer Center
Weird Facial Hair - Ryan Howard’s beard (shave it, it’s a jinx), Brad Lidge’s beard, and perennials, Jayson Werth, Joe Blanton, and Carlos Ruiz
Signage - Nothing great, the best they could do was Joe the Pitcher, which is so 2008.

Worst Post Game Analysis - Fox 29
Joe Stazak and Cuz Gargano need to stop acting as on-air cheerleaders and do their jobs as reporters.
We are subjected constantly to the annoying Cuz sucking up to the players and pretending he is on the team.

Wasn’t Gargano crying crocodile tears the day the vet closed? The other broadcasters that day just had tears, while CUZ was just Balling crying, something you can do without on TV!
Also, whenever I see Stazak it looks as if he doesn’t know where he is.
Put Steve Bucci on as main sports anchor, he knows his stuff, stop putting him wherever.
