Is it me, or is Blanton starting to come off a little ****?

You mean Maddon?

Blanton reminded me of Myers earlier in the Post Season when Blanton get that blast of a Homer...

This was one of the first things I said to my brother while watching the game. I asked what the heck was that dark spot and why does he keep touching it?

I noticed it too during the game. After the game Blanton said that he's used that hat for the whole season. It is a mixture of sweat and dirt. I watched him, he'd wipe is forehead with his hand and touch his cap. It is a mixture of the dirt they rub the balls down with and sweat. Pretty gross, but hey if it is his lucky hat then so be it.

If it awws pine tar, the ump would have seen it on the ball.

If that's you and your brother in that picture, I don't want to know the details of that comment.

Me too man

I like how Maddon handled this by going to the upm and not making it a huge scene. There are a few managers in MLB that would have just called the guy a cheater from the dugout and make a spectacle out of it. And I have a different theory on what that was on Blanton's hat: It is "space dust" from all of Darren Daulton's time travels through space since that guy has LOST HIS FRICKIN MIND!

Mets? What are the Mets?

Charlie Manuel said it was an old hat, so when did the Phils start wearing the World Series Logo on the side of their hats? Looks like he intentionally made his new hat look old before his first WS start.

Get over the Mets Phillies fans, what did you idiots do for the first 79 years (1883-1962), and 9,000 or so loses? Maddon should have made a bigger stink. Old hat my ****, Blanton had something on that hat. You'd have to be stupid if you didn't see him rubbing it between pitches.
