Ten years ago this past Saturday, a group of about ten devoted Phillies fans started this blog. We were stats-oriented analysis-devoted dissidents from the Philaphans message board who believed that Bobby Abreu was better than Aaron Rowand . . . much better. This made us unusual among Phillies fans, who were mostly raised on the belief that grit and hustle were the most important attributes of baseball players. We committed to fighting The Good Phight on behalf of our hero, Bob Kelly, and everything he stood for. We knew that in order to win over the masses, we had to have not only excellent analysis and argument but also smart, witty writing.
