Philadelphia Phillies' Presidential Ticket: Chase/Chooch or Howard/Hamels?



Headline Topic: Chase/Chooch or Howard/Hamels?  

Presidential Candidate:  Chase Utley 

Yes, he's had some health issues. But, there's no one who works harder for the people. 

Vice Presidential Candidate:  Carlos Ruiz
He represents someone who can take over at a moment's notice and carry the country if need be.

or 

Presidential Candidate:  Ryan Howard
He's powerful and knows how to bring our troops home.

Vice Presidential Candidate:  Cole Hamels
He'll pitch in (cheeky, yet true) whenever he's need and is now a staff leader.


While I'm following the playoffs, there are no Phillies' games to seen. As such, it's  clearly time to consider which two Phillies' players would serve as an alternative Presidential ticket in an all baseball world.


So, for however many days this takes, I will be presenting a series of competing Presidential tickets that feature one pair of Presidential and Vice Presidential candidates per day. 

ATTACK AD --->>> If there is anyone who doesn't like this type of lighthearted humor, my recommendation is that you get over yourself. It costs you nothing (including your precious time) to read this blog post. So, deal with it.

Recent Headline Topic:  Hope for Phillies' Darin 'Babe' Ruf 

Seeing Darin Ruf hit numerous home runs out of a Double-A park in Reading was thrilling. Seeing him hit his first major league home run, during the first game that he started in left field for the Philadelphia Phillies was priceless (to coin an advertising cliche.)  

Will he actually develop into a major league player? Could that happen by next season? No one knows the answers to these questions, but personal stories have always drawn me to this specific game.

Here is my feature article about him.

Classic Headline Topic: The anniversary of Pete Rose's 4,192 hit.

Pete broke Ty Cobb's hit record on 9/11/85. The man was unique in the annals of baseball history. 

For those who are interested, my recent feature comments on Rose's time with the Phillies and the complex feelings that many of us have about his gambling issues:

Classic Headline Topic: Three Flyers' Legends

Each of these Flyers' legends (Brian Propp, Dave Poulin and Tim Kerr) deserved their own feature article:

Recent Headline Topic: Eagles-Giants' Game

Both teams are 2-1. This looks to be a game the Eagles should win. 

Divisional and Conference games matter just as much now as they do later in the season. The Birds can't let this one slip away. 

It will be interesting to see how Vick performs in what has been an erratic effort to-date.

Recent Headline Topic: Tony DiLeo 

The hiring of DiLeo as GM promotes from within and represents another feel-good move that the newest Sixers ownership group has made. 

With Doug Collins seemingly likely to continue to have strong influence on this team, all signs remain positive for the resurgence of this basketball franchise.
