Phreakin' Phils: it's the most wonderful time of the year

Okay, people, there is more to life than politics. Baseball, for example. Now that the Grapefruit League is in full swing, Phillies weblogs everywhere are coming out of hibernation. A new addition to the group is Phreakin' Phils: another freaking Phillies blog.

The site is less than a week old, but proprietor Wade Bloggs has already offered innovative ideas to improve our beloved and beleaguered baseball team. For example, after comparing General Manager Ed Wade to Mayor Street, claiming that "they have each taken old, marginally successful franchises and made them a laughing stock in other cities," Bloggs suggests that full control of the Phillies should be given to the Phanatic.

Phreakin' Phils is a little negative*, but the commentary so far is fun and a welcome diversion from sports sites that focus mainly on recaps and statistics. Philly Future links to a few Phillies weblogs, but if you have a favorite that's missing, put it in the comments, and maybe the fine editors of this forum will add it to the blogroll.

*Are there any Phillies weblogs that aren't negative?
