  He needs to shut his yap until they actually win something.
  
  And those "bitches" took your ass to school yesterday.

  It is in poor taste, however I enjoy an athlete not always being PC. I like his attitude.
• SportsAndLady

  

  Haha interesting
• Rotinaj

  

  At least he went 0-5 to back up his talk.
• slcoach

  Who gives a fuck? You think Ray Lewis hates the Bengals and Steelers and thinks they are bitches? I love it that Votto and Phillips have came out and said the shit that we all think as well. I hate the Cardinals too and I give BP credit for coming out and saying it. Fuck the Cardinals.

  I love Brandon Phillips! He does interviews with some Columbus radio guys pretty regularly, and he's always highly interesting to listen to. Definitely someone who speaks his mind.

  I hate the Cardinals as well. I've got no issues with this.

  I'm on board with this quote as well
• norwalk

  I have no problem with it. We all hate the Cardinals and at least BP is showing a fight. Better than being a p*ssy like Larussa and trying to turn it into him hating Rolen, Edmonds, etc. That's a p*ssy move if you ask me.

  And Rolen hates LaRussa so I'm sure he isn't pissed and Phillips.

  BP is the man. Tellin it like it is.

  Just back it up...and bitches is a stupid word to use for a team with Albert Pujols on it.
  
  
  Last night's game Brandon Phillips was completely meaningless....no offense or defense
  
  Lead with your play if you don't know how to talk.

  I don't mind guys speaking their mind like this, he just better be able to back up what he is saying. Calling a team that has dominated the division for a better part of a decade a bunch of bitches might not be the best thing to do, especially when your team is trying to earn respect.
• BigAppleBuckeye

  

  Yeah, I don't mind some competitive smack talk, but not when your team hasn't won dick, and the Cards have won 7 division titles and 1 World Series this decade. If they are bitches, then what are the Reds? Not hating on the Reds -- shit, I root for the biggest bitch team in baseball (Mets) -- but this just makes Phillips look foolish.
• Ironman92

  

  After saying this I wouldn't be surprised if the Cards are comfortably ahead or behind LaRussa bringing in Jason Motte to make Phillips ribs sore.
• Ironman92

  

  and for what it's worth....he's dead on describing Chris Carpenter....but the problem is Carpenter is 6'6......bitchy and one of the 3 best pitchers in baseball....some things are better left kept to oneself or within the clubhouse
  
  
  
  ANy of you watch the ESPN telecast last night when Carpenter was ripping Brendon Ryan for delaying his starts some 30 seconds??? Then was fuming mad when he gave up the run that went through where the SS typically plays but the scouting reports sucked for the pitch call/defense....it was 7-0....get over yourself a touch. Just from what I've viewed over the past 2 seasons I've lost a lot of respect for Carpenter.

  As a Pirates fan, I mildly disagree. The Mets are a HUGEASS bitch team considering how much money they spend to go nowhere nowadays, but when you have as many losing seasons in a row as the Low-rates, NO ONE is a bigger bitch.

  I SORT OF understand the issue in the first inning. But dear God, Carpenter, YOU ARE NOT GOD'S GIFT TO BASEBALL. Ryan messed up(or did he?). But yeah, up 7-0 and you give up a run on a hard hit ball.

  haha, no argument here Heretic. There are four kinds of baseball teams: teams with insane payrolls that are consistent winners, teams with lower payrolls that are competitive, teams with lower payrolls that will never be competitive, and the Fucking Mets haha ...

  Do you really think it will take that long for BP to get some chin music? Garcia should stick one in his ear in his first AB and then dare him to do something about it.
  
  Of course, LaRussa won't allow that to happen, as a bench-clearing brawl could result in Garcia getting tossed. I do expect to see some sort of message being sent to Phillips tonight, though. Perhaps some hard slides into 2nd to break up the DP would send the same message as well.
  
  Seriously, though, I think Brandon is just showing some frustration at going 0-for last night.
• darbypitcher22

  

  Redlegs better get the next 2 to back it up or he's goign to look like a complete idiot
• Ironman92

  

  I don't know..LaRussa is about the most active in sending a message...game on the line or not
• yobro08

  wonder how long it takes phillips to get beaned
• Strapping Young Lad

  

  I don't think bitches is the most accurate word but this is what sports is supposed to be about. Hate for the other guy!!!!
