not just about the Mets collapse.

It's definitely not. There are two parts to the equation, and the Phils had to win a lot of games. The bullpen came through at the right time, they got hits in September.

I will thank the Marlins, though. Who thought they could take 2 of 3? They got Dutch Daulton and Jim Eisenreich their rings, and now this. Thanks, fish! PS- I do not forgive you and Jeff Conine for 2003. Regards, SG

The capper to this day would be Cholly knocking out Howard Eskin at the post game interview.

closed 13-4 to win East. That alone defies any 'backing in.'

I am just so happy right now. Years of frustration of barely missing the playoffs.....

It's PARTY TIME!

So exciting for the team and the city. How wonderful it would be if they could make a run at this...

After this season, I think the playoffs is playing with house money.

Really, I'll be please with any little post season achievement: one more Hamels gem, a big night by Howard, anything.

Agreed.

But, if COL wins and SD loses to force a playoff, they'd have to use Peavy tomorrow I think?

Default JIMMY ROLLINS QUOTED FOR MOTHER F*&^%$ TRUTH

In January, 2007, Rollins stated: "The Mets had a chance to win the World Series last year. Last year is over. I think we are the team to beat in the NL East, finally. But, that's only on paper."

It was considered a significant assertion, especially given that the New York Mets had won the division in 2006 with relative ease. The claim was widely reported, often without the second part of the quote ("only on paper").

Rollins refused to back down from the quote even as the Phillies began the season with a slow start.

GG Phillies.

Rollins has gotta win MVP after today, imho. Stat-heads can say different but it can't be Holliday.

Jimmy picked them on his back and carried them for so so long.

So... what did Holliday do? Didn't pick up the Rockies on his back and carry them?
