I am just one man...

Occasionally, I hear from people who say things like, "You guys do a really good job (at PhoulBallz.com)!"  I met some people on Sunday at the Reading game in Trenton that were very complimentary of this site and they asserted that same sentiment.  I heard from well-known, and retired, Philadelphia sports columnist Bill Conlin with such a message a few months back.  The usual e-mail from a player's family or ex-teammate typically states that sort of thought.  And now I see a post from SoundofPhilly addressing me as "gentlemen".

World, I assure you that I am a lone man.  Of course, the PhoulBallz Podcast has a co-host and producer named Tug Haines, but this site's daily written content is served up by just me.

Compliments and plugs for this site are truly appreciated, but, in case there's extensive confusion, misconceptions or just bad assumptions made, I wish to state, once and for all, what you read here is posted by me, Reverend Ballz, AKA the Pale Prospect Professional, AKA Jason H. Ballzino, AKA the Methodical Minors Master, AKA Daz Diligence, AKA Jay Floyd.

Okay, I suppose offering up no less than five alternate names for myself, as though I am a member of the Wu Tang Clan, was not the best way to assert the whole solo identity concept, but, hopefully, you'll all understand what I'm saying.

Thanks to you, for the support over the years.  I thoroughly enjoy being a guy folks can rely on for inside access to the minor leagues and more.

Harry Kalas Phorever...

Legendary broadcaster Harry Kalas passed away today. Harry collapsed while preparing to call today's game against the Washington Nationals. So many phans will feel as though we've lost a member of our own families. I feel as though I've lost a part of myself, but Harry enhanced my love of the great sport we call baseball and I will always carry that love, and Harry, in my heart. I've stated on this page before that I consider Harry more of a Phillie than anyone who wears the uniform as an active member of the roster. Harry Kalas was a Phillie. Moreso, Harry Kalas was the Phillies. Please share your thoughts and memories of Harry in the comments section, or send them to PhoulBallz (at) verizon (dot) net.

Ryan Madson is acting questionable

I've seen similar types of "poking fun" entries on other Phillies blogs. When this picture came across my desk today, I figured, "Why not...?" Ryan Madson was out on the town (Manayunk) over the weekend and was photographed acting pretty with a purse slung over his shoulder and being chummy with a friend of mine. Can I really call him a friend, if he's actually my friends' friend , and I only prank called him once? Sure, why the heck not?!
