I think it was very brave of these Phillies fans to stand up before a national audience last night during Game 2 of the NLCS and admit that they have personal problems. The man in the middle, for instance, is declaring that he’s a bed wetter. And that makes sense, because he’s wearing a giant “Pee” on his shirt. The man on the right with the white cap and sweatshirt is telling us that he’s pigeon toed. Good luck with that deformity, sir. And the man on the left in the blue jacket? Let’s just say he’s having some problems at home. But why tell us? It’s a mystery.
But Phillies fans are nothing if not sticklers for grammar. On Saturday the fan in the back held up a sign that read “Hippy Trash”, apparently in reference to Tim Lincecum. Notified by someone — possibly his parole officer — that the correct spelling is actually “Hippie”, he came back Sunday with an updated sign.
Not seen: Phillies fan with sign that reads: “Feeble Minded.”

Weak. You stole this. I read another blog that used the same premise…fans were holding signs that described themselves. The original blogger was not only original, he had a much funnier way of saying it. I guess that’s why you’re a blogger and not a real journalist.
