Phillies Lose - Philadelphia Returns to Normal


For two glorious days, a strange feeling wafted over Philadelphia fans - and that feeling was hope. The Phillies historic rally, making up 7 games in the last 17 games of the season was so dramatic that people actually believed -- in fact, the whole sports scene in Philadelphia became BIZARRO PHILADELPHIA . Well, after yesterday's loss, things in the media have returned to normal and everything else has reverted back to form as well, including:

- Andy Reid immediately stopped eating salads and went back to his cheesesteak diet

- Reid also scrapped plans to ever run the ball again - expect McNabb to throw 265 times against the Jets in a week and a half

- Charlie Manual quit his speech class - he will continue talking like Forrest Gump

- Billy King immediately ditched all plans to continue developing young talent, word on the street is that he's trying to trade Andre Iguodala for Dikembe Mutombo

- Jay Wright changed back into an armani suit after wearing cut off shorts and a wife beater for two days

- The Flyers held a team meeting last night and decided that instead of trying to improve, they'd rather just continue sucking this year.

- Santa Claus had to return his key to the city and was booed while doing it
