No one has to remind me but I understand why they do. I am a huge baseball fan and Phillies fan. Baseball is a sport that I love and a loss like that will take an eternity to get over. There is nothing like a championship being played by two cities who are only 90 miles apart. I am nowhere near old enough to have been around when Ashburn and Robin Roberts lost to the Yanks in 1950, but just from reading and learning about that series I can tell that all Phillies fans will remember this 2009 loss forever. Of course you remember any World Series loss, but one to the Yanks make it that much more memorable.
I know you are, and yea I was looking forward to giving BAS the avatar of his cat with a Phillies makeover. That has since been deleted off of my computer.
