Chase Utley Photo of the Week (3-28-12)

Hi everybody,

Hope everyone is having a good week!  If not, this Chase Utley picture probably isn't going to improve your mood.

We're waiting for you too, Chase!

Hopefully Chase will be back in action soon!

Talk to you soon,

Weekend Update

Hi everybody,

Sorry I haven't been posting much this week but now I'm feeling a bit better about Chase's status since he talked to the press.  It sounds like he will be playing at some point this season (fingers crossed).  Until then, I will continue to cover the Phillies...they're still my team.  I can't wait until the regular season starts!

Hope everyone had a great weekend.  Since I was nervous yesterday about what Chase would have to say about his condition, I decided to drown my sorrows in... cheese.  Cheese covered food, that is...otherwise known as fondue.  This stuff's great!!  I ate so much fondue and drank lots of root beer.

I will have to try chocolate fondue next time.  Yum!

Talk to you soon,

Chase Utley Photo of the Week (3-21-12)

Hi everybody,

It's Chase Utley photo time again.  I'm a little upset about Chase having to leave Spring Training this week.  I know he's due back tomorrow, hopefully with some good news.  Here's a picture of him sliding in safe after his inside-the-park home run last year.  With any luck he'll be doing stuff like that again soon!

Weekend Update

Hi everybody,

I hope you are all having a fun weekend.  Did everyone enjoy their St. Paddy's Day?  I sure did.  I was out shopping with friends and got two new baseball games for the PS3.  I am really looking forward to playing them.  They should keep me busy until the start of the regular season.  I will give you an update on the games later this week.  I'm gonna let Chase do some pitching!  The three aces need a break!

Happy St. Patrick's Day

Hi everybody,

Just wanted to wish everyone a Happy St. Patrick's Day.  To celebrate I put this great Irish song by the Pogues on the blog.  It's called "Sally Maclennane" and it should help put you in the St. Paddy's spirit.


I personally don't drink so I got a bunch of cool Irish stuff to help celebrate the day.

Kickin' it old school with the Charms!!

I'm gonna have a bowl of Lucky Charms, a cup of coffee with Irish Cream creamer and some Irish Potatoes for dessert.  I would have gotten a Shamrock Shake too but my McDonalds was all out!

Maybe next year.....or tomorrow!

So I hope that everyone stays safe and has a fun day!

Good Deed

Hi everybody,

Hope everyone is looking forward to a fun weekend.  I just wanted to give a shout out to my friend who gave blood yesterday.  I am very proud of her.  I would like to donate as well but I can't because I don't meet the height and weight requirements.  She even got a cool sticker and pin for donating and she's letting me model them for you all to see.

What a cool sticker!

Here is a close-up of the pin!

Chase Utley Photo of the Week (3-14-12)

Hi everybody,

I've decided to use another Spring Training picture this week even though Chase has yet to be seen in a game.  I'm really trying not to get worried about him and hoping he will play really, really soon.  Hope you all enjoy it!

hmm...I'm not sure but I think my friend may have chosen this picture.

Getting to know Chase (revisited)

Hi everybody,

Since I figured out how to embed video...I decided to add the videos of the Chase interview from last week.  Now you all don't have to click on the links.

Part 1:

Part 2:

                      

What a great interview!!  I just wish that Chase would use more sunscreen and I'm hoping to see him in a Spring Training game this week or next!!

Look at what I did

Hi everybody,

Hope you're all having a great weekend!  Ever since I started this blog I've wanted to put audio of Chase Utley's walk-up song.  I finally figured out how to do it!  On the upper right hand corner there's a video you can play to listen to "Kashmir" as you peruse the site.  Just imagine looking at my Christmas pictures while listening to Chase's theme song!  Well you no longer have to imagine it...you can just do it!!

I've also figured out how to embed video.  Here's a clip of the Phillie Phanatic as Lady PhaPha:

Now I can just put up the videos instead of the links!  Yay!!  Some day I hope to figure out how to delete pictures I sometimes post by mistake.

Chase Utley Photo of the Week (3-7-12)

Hi everybody,

Time for the Chase Photo of the Week.  I figured I'd stay with the spirit of Spring Training.  This pic includes Jim Thome.  I'm really glad he's a Phillie again.  Hope you all enjoy it!

Maybe next week I'll have a picture of Chase playing some ball down in Clearwater.

Talk to you soon,

Talkin' Phils with Little Chase (3-4-12)

Hi everybody,

It was great seeing the Phils play again even though they lost.  It's preseason so that's okay.  The regular season is what's important and I think they'll be great!  It was awesome to see (and hear) Hunter smashing in two homers this weekend.  I'm looking forward to seeing Chase's preseason debut.

Speaking of my hero, I wanted to share an interview that he did with Comcast Sportsnet this past week.  Here are the links to this two-part interview:

Can you believe in less than a month we will be enjoying regular season games?  I can't wait!!
