I started watching baseball in 1993, in July. I lived in Maryland, but my dad was from Philly, and I guess I was always destined to become a Phillies fan at that point.
I watched all the games after that for awhile, and it sucked.
And now it's sad, cause the Phillies are doing awesome, but I live overseas. So I started googling around, just to see where the Phillies parade will be if (no jinx!) they win the 2008 World Series today.
But anyway the parade will probably go down Broad street, starting from the sports complex and going up to Center City, and then they could stop at City Hall and do the whole speeches/awards/everything there. I might even have to fly back from overseas if this happens.
Stop stop stop stop I'm jinxing everything....noooo
On a related note, I found Phillies 2008 World Series Champion shirts already printed, hats too. Kinda cool:
