We’ve reached the point of Phillies preseason where players are dropping F bombs on live television:

“You know, I am the grizzly bear (laughing). I am the grizzly bear. Sometimes I call to my people in the clubhouse, ‘bro I feel like a fat boy, you know?’ Like I’m fucking fat.”

Move over Immanuel Kant, because this Phillies team is full of philosophers. You’ve got Nick Castellanos talking about milk and wine, now Jose Alvarado is doing hibernation metaphors.

This group is fun. Content City USA. Hopefully the crushing weight of expectations doesn’t ruin the enjoyment of what should be another great season.
