WE ARE THE CHAMPIONS! THE PHILADELPHIA PHILLIES WIN WORLD SERIES


The Phillies are the 2008 world champions, with Brad Lidge closing out a 4-3, unbelievable Game 5 victory over the Rays to end the season in style at Citizens Bank Park and bring the kind of joy to The City of Brotherly Love that you couldn't imagine.

Horns were blaring, screams in the distance and the explosions of fireworks filled the night. The Phillies won the World Series and the air tonight was electric. Strangers hugged and I have random high fives to passers by. Everyone young and old came out of their homes and headed toward the nearest major intersection.

The Phillies are World Champions and the parade is Friday. One down and an election to go. I can't get that tune from Queen out of my head, We are the Champions!
