We have no plan. A Phillies story authored by managing partner and city fraudster, John Middleton. The fall from grace was a violent one and the sheen of a Bryce Harper signing has worn off. Where there is smoke, there is fire. And with all the negative news surrounding this organization, there is a lot... A LOT of smoke. Andrew and Shane go off scripts and notes and just react and theorize all the recent stories that have come out from both local and national media and even the ridiculous responses from Middleton himself. What did Philly ever do to deserve this mess?
