Phillips is hilarious. I don't that in a condescending way either; I find him really entertaining -- especially the "having dreams about me" bit.

Re: Brandon Phillips is trying...
I think it is funny how much he gets under the skin of some Cards fans. There are a handful of players who have that effect on me, but no Reds yet ...
I don't think he is suggesting we secretly love him, Bronc, I think he is playfully suggesting we're preoccupied with him because we're afraid of him and how good he is and how much then Reds are gonna clobber us.
Cronos, the psychology of pro athlete personalities is an interesting topic. Some do wander over into the axis II territory, but in general, as a group they test out with significantly more than average of the traits of industry leaders and are comparable to the most successful members of other fields. Pro athletes are generally confident, focused, independent, satisfied, empathic, and in control.

Re: Brandon Phillips is trying...
Would anyone like it if one of our players said this kind of stuff? Honestly?
It would probably get under my skin more if Phillips dominated us, but he never really seems to back up the talk. As of now, it's somewhere between amusing and annoying.

It would get under my skin if I had any idea who he was.

I have a feeling that Carp does this, but during games and from the dugout.ThatGuy wrote:Would anyone like it if one of our players said this kind of stuff? Honestly?

I envision Carp having a more mature, badass brand of trash talk. Phillips seems to get his material from middle schoolers.InvincibleCakeEater wrote:I have a feeling that Carp does this, but during games and from the dugout.ThatGuy wrote:Would anyone like it if one of our players said this kind of stuff?
