Best of times, worst of times for Phillies, Eagles fans
3:27: Touchdown, Redskins. Portis walks into the end zone untouched. It doesn't look good for the Birds.
3:39: Deja vu. Eagles pathetically can't get a first down after having two cracks at 1 yard. Two yards for a TD or 1 yard for a first down, and they can't do either. Akers, chip-shot FG; 23-17 Redskins.
3:42: Ryan Braun brings home a run for the Brewers; 6-2 Phillies. Only 4 more outs.
4:01: Phillies win! Brad Lidge allows a single in an otherwise worry-free ninth, and the Phils earn their first NLCS berth in 15 years.
4:02: Eagles go down. Was anyone even watching?
4:05: Rollins is wearing goggles in the clubhouse, as he is getting sprayed with champagne.
4:13: "We're trying to turn the town red instead of green," Cole Hamels tells Comcast SportsNet.
The Phillies did a good job - changing the channel in the right direction. *
