I've never minded Brandon Phillips, but now I like him even more.

Wow. Wow.

 

I.

Brandon.

 

Phillips.

I have a new found respect for Mr. Phillips.

 

Does he have a newsletter I can subscribe to? I could not have said it better myself.

[Funketown]

Melvin, give them Gallardo, Braun, Fielder, Escobar, Lawrie, and Cain. The Brewers need this guy.

I found myself appreciating Brandon Phillips' performance in the All-Star Game this year. I find myself liking these comments he made about STL too.

[trwi7]

The best part about what he said is that it's 100% true.

[jimmyjeromehardy7]

After reading what Phillips said I wasn't 100% clear on how he felt about the Cardinals. I am sure this is going over real well in St. Louis, I think I can hear them whining all the way to Chicago.

[LouisEly]

You know, because the human statue POO-holes is allowed to stand at home plate and watch his home runs because he's won a couple of MVPs, but anyone else who does that is showing up the Cardinal's pitchers.

 

And looking at the comments under the article, sounds like Philips can extend those comments to the Cardinals fans. Didn't know there were so many of them in Dayton.

[jjkoestler]

Very unclassy. I'm sure the Cards will throw at him in order to teach him a lesson about class and playing the game the right way.

 

Edit: I'd really like to make that quote my signature.

[theavrock]

Absolutely brilliant. That is the best quote I have seen in a long time.

Oh, you know that all it takes is one link in the right part of cyberspace and Classy Nation will be allll over it.

I didn't much care for the comment that the Reds are now running their mouths "just like the Brewers." That has a major STL vibe to it.

 

Also, jjkoestler, I agree that the comments would be great signature fodder...just on another message board.

[TooLiveBrew]

Phillips *will* get drilled for these comments... that's the classy way. I just hope Bruce/Edmonds/Votto knocks one out after the Phillips beaning.

[pitchleague]

harumph! Phillips makes comments and the Cardinals get up big early on the Reds. Whoops?

Yes, and don't forget how you can't throw inside vs pitchers if you're not good enough to go command your pitches. Just ask Carpenter. Of course....that must not apply to when he's pitching to Gallardo.

 

But yeah, Pujols and his little routine at Home is pretty annoying. He reminds me of Brett Favre. Just playing that good old boy role. One day we're going to find some of his dirty little secrets.

[derflotr]

That's probably the awesomest quote I've ever read. Go Reds.

[Buckylovesbeer]

Agree with all of you. BP is all-good in my book

[RobDeer 45]

So Aggressive!!!! Love it.

[Funketown]

Did anybody see Carpenter's little tantrum about Brendan Ryan's glove last night? Not to mention Ryan's positioning on a single in the 7th inning...

 

Go Reds Go.

[jhart05]

Nice.

[Nottso]

Beautiful.

And if you do get hit, you should turn to the crowd and drop the loudest f-bomb possible. Teach those kids a few new words when they head to the park. Thats the classy way to act.

This is simply the best thing I've read all year. Wonderful.

[dlk9s]

Brandon Phillips was just in the middle of a fracas with the Cards. Looks like Clutch Yadi started mouthing off to BP and they started getting in each other's face. And then it escalated.

[pitchleague]

yeah, quite the bruhah-hah. I did not like the fact that it escalated right in front of the fans, some players being pushed almost into some fan's laps.
