By the time you read this I will already be dead...
Wait, what?
No, I'm just kidding around so I hope the the celebration hasn't begun. at least not yet. Anyway, hopefully I will be in Clearwater, Fla. for a two-week stint writing about the World F. Champion Philadelphia Phillies beginning on Friday.
Should be fun.
As regular readers of this li'l dog-and-pony show know, we have written plenty about Clearwater, airports, security lines, the TSA threat level and Florida in the last 12 months, so don't look for any insight on that kind of stuff here. Last I heard all the staples were still down there: Lenny's, Frenchy's, Hooters, the ballpark, strip malls as far as the eye can see, and that bar where Cole Hamels got into a fight and broke his hand.
All open for business and all ready to serve.
Anyway, click here, here and here for old Clearwater stories. We were there for the World Series just a few months ago and had a blast.
Nevertheless, it's been a pretty quiet camp for the Phillies so far, which is a really good development. Is there anything better than a quiet camp four months removed from a World Series victory?
No. No way.
See you at the airport.
