What to Watch

Well, since there's no baseball for the foreseeable future, we need to figure out how to get our sports fix. I'm secretly hoping NBCSports Philadelphia shows some classic Phillies games. After all, they only have so many infomercials they can show.

So what games do I want to see?

1.  The entire 2008 World Series 
One of the happiest moments of my life
2. Roy Halladay's perfect game against the Marlins
Absolute pitching masterpiece
3. Roy Halladay's playoff no-hitter against the Reds in 2010
Nearly perfect in the playoffs
4. Phillies 23-22 win over the Cubs in 1979
Insanity ruled the day
5. Mike Schmidt's 4-HR game against the Cubs in 1976
A show of shows
6. NL East clinching win against the Expos in 1980
Andy Musser - "He buried it!"
7. Phils give up 10 runs in the first, come back to beat the Pirates in 1989 (The Jim Rooker Game)
Pirates broadcaster vows to walk home if Bucs lose. They did. He walked.

Some of these games are available on YouTube. But I'd rather watch them on TV.
