May 12, 200619 yr Lost in all this will be one HELL of a catch. Amazing he got to it and made the catch, freakin' unbelievable that he held on to it after the facial.
May 12, 200619 yr Apparently, Aaron Rowand's mere presence on that team makes people hate the lollygaggin' Bobby Abreu with a passion. That's awesome.
May 12, 200619 yr So, according, repeatedly, to ESPN tonight, Crash actually requested that the Phillies install some padding on that section of the fence. The padding was delivered this week, and was due for install next week.

On the PhilliesPhan site, some dude said that the padding would be dedicated to the memory or Aaron Rowand's face. Oh yeah, and some other dude had a brain cramp and said that Germans bombed Pearl Harbor. Great site.

May 12, 200619 yr Here you go. Heads posted it in the other Rowand thread. http://www.philliesphans.com/phorum/viewtopic.php?t=33454

That's awesome. Looks like much more of a tough crowd over there from what I gathered skimming through a couple of pages of that thread (entertaining too). Nowhere near the Rowand fanaticism we've got over here though. There's plenty of criticism to go around.

May 12, 200619 yr QUOTE(Jimbo @ May 12, 2006 -> 06:26 AM) Would BA make the same effort that Rowand did?? Umm, with BA's gazelle-like strides, he's camped underneath that ball before it ever even comes close to landing.
May 12, 200619 yr I think BA could run into the crowd and down a beer and make out with a fat chick and then be able to make that catch...wow im weird tonight.

May 12, 200619 yr Rowand's a wuss...BA would have finished the game after a lil scratch like that....BA = safe driver Rowand + wall = Crash.
May 12, 200619 yr QUOTE(qwerty @ May 12, 2006 -> 02:45 AM) Only on page three... but philly chuck is crazy. I have never heard someone advocate for less hustle from players. Wow, I am just amazed.
May 12, 200619 yr QUOTE(HeGone33 @ May 12, 2006 -> 09:51 AM) Love ARow, love the catch, but BA would have caught that with ease. ARow generally plays deeper than BA. I doubt that he would have 'caught that with ease'.
May 12, 200619 yr QUOTE(YASNY @ May 12, 2006 -> 09:53 AM) ARow generally plays deeper than BA. I doubt that he would have 'caught that with ease'. BA covers way more ground than ROwand. The catches that A-row made in stride last year, BA gets there, stops, re-ties his glove strings and makes the catch.
May 12, 200619 yr Good read on Arow. It's not often I use "good read" when linking a NY Times article, but it's warranted in this case. http://www.nytimes.com/2006/05/12/sports/b...12phillies.html
