Philadelphia Will Do  
 

A Humble Suggestion For A New Phillies Fan Club

Now that Sal Fasano has been designated for assignment and will probably be released in the coming days, there’s going to be a hole in the right field stands.

Yes, the popular Sal’s Pals, the Sal Fasano fan club, no longer has a leader. And, yeah, the Wolf Pack should be back when Randy Wolf gets off the DL, but the second best fan club was Sal’s Pals, and it’ll be hard to replace it. (Chase Utley has “Chase’s Chicks” and “Utley’s Ugleys.”)

But there’s no logical replacement for Sal’s Pals than a fan club for the man responsible for Sal’s release, Chris Coste. The 33-year-old bounced around the minor leagues for several years, finally making his major league debut this May with the Phils. And after an 0-for-13 slump to start his career, Coste is now hitting .333 with two homers and 12 RBI in 54 at bats.

And, hey, while Sal was a fun story, so is Coste.

That being said, I think this will be an adequate replacement. It’s not the same, but it’ll do:

    What about Brett Myers’ Attorneys? You can also keep count of his punch-outs…

  2. Art Says: Jul 24 2:30 PM

    How about Coste Nostra.

  3. James Says: Jul 24 8:07 PM

    Have any body seen Flash’s Followers, I was at the game when those two Utley fan groups were there and i could barely hear them. I also saw the replay of a phillies game on television and you could hear all the chants from Flash’s fan group while watching on tv. It seems to me that they are a lot better fans and the chicks don’t even know whats going on in the game.

  4. Alex Says: Jul 25 3:58 AM

    Come on, the obvious winner here is…The Coste Guard.

  5. Cecil Says: Jul 25 3:27 PM

    I 2nd the Coste Guard suggestion….

  6. mike Says: Jul 25 6:59 PM

    How about “Coste’s Boasts”? Everyone could where t-shirts with things that they imagine Coste would boast of, like: “I may be 33-years-old, but at least I’m in the major-fucking-leagues, bitches!” Or maybe: “I’m so good, they kicked Sal Fasano off the team to make room for me.”

  7. UTLEYS UGLEYS Says: Jul 27 12:27 AM

    Let me tell evyer1 a little somethin…no1 is better fans then UTLEYS UGLEYS…with what little money we have we bust it to try and make every game possible…i am sending this on behalf of the group saying we are tired of being “second” or “third” best….we are the true fans and Chase Utley hears us every game…and so does every1 else

  8. UTLEYS UGLEYS Says: Jul 27 12:30 AM

    For the fake phillies fans…stop trashing UTLEYS UGLEYS…we chant louder then any1 in that stadium…if you went to as many games as us you would realize it…how about some brotherly love instead of the bad mouthin

  9. john Says: Jul 27 3:45 PM

    Utleys ugleys may be loud but those Chicks are so much hotter…plus rumor has it Chase has a hat they gave him and wears it in the club house all the time. and as for those followers, they just seem gay wearing spandex superhero customs, when Tom Gordon is probably being traded.

  10. James Says: Jul 28 12:08 AM

    I’m not bad mouthing Utleys Uglies…im just saying its not as creative as the Followers and the followers seem to be louder especially since if you watch a game on tv you can hear their chants. Also the uglies costumes are pretty sweet must of been hard to come up with that. Ill just mention the chicks here n say…your not hot and you wish you could have as much fun as real fans

  11. an UGLEY Says: Jul 28 3:18 PM

    Give me a break with flashes fallowers and chases chicks.. i’d liek to hope the followers can be loud considering theres 15-20 of them and chases chick are girls - period The UGLEYS are a REAL Philly fan group that has the dedication and the heart. All the others are out for the publicity.

  12. an UGLEY Says: Jul 28 3:21 PM

    john, what do you do…… exactly

  13. UGLEY UTLEY Says: Jul 30 12:20 AM

    yea i guess you didnt see the ugleys on espn or sportscenter or baseball tonite or comcast or daily news because i sure as hell didnt see flash’s followers and yes they do talk about chases chicks but there bitches and ulgy ones too they suck and should little at best support for the team were are there now when we all know this team is not playoff bound we are the best fans there

  14. james Says: Jul 30 2:27 AM

    ya it must be pretty hard to get on tv when the player you have a fan club for is on a 29 game hit streak. haha sry but i guess ur right that its because ur a great fan group…………….ok ok jokings done sry im proud u cheer for the best. You should just join the chicks n b on his bird like them. I just started with a comment about the better fan group so don’t get offended n u shoulnd’t b proud of yourselves

  15. Vinsanity Says: Jul 30 3:09 AM

    listen james…we sure as shit do cheer for the BEST … and dont get your ky lube ready just yet, cause there is no shot in hell any member of Utleys’s Ugleys will be joining those whores who want a little air time and no NOTHING about the game of baseball .. and why shouldnt we be proud? we have come to terms that we are not the best looking group of guys around…just a bunch of Ugleys who enjoy the game of baseball and have decided to give extra support to a player who does not recieve the credit he most certainly deserves…Thank You and hope to see you at the game
    GO CHASE & PHILLIES!!!

  16. Kirk Schiff Says: Jul 31 12:48 AM

    Does recieve credit….is that a joke? How do you not recieve credit when you get voted to the all star game you jackass

  17. james Says: Jul 31 2:03 AM

    adding to kirk…ya i guess he doesn’t get credit when every1 in the f’in stadium stands up and cheers for him when he bats….hahah do you watch these games u go to? and also…u say ur in it for the love of the game…but u go and talk abuot being on espn…even though u were only on because the player u have a fan club for is on that streak u f’in pr*cks….i’d stop talking because u just keep proving wat a shitty group you guys are

  18. james Says: Jul 31 2:21 AM

    O ya.. and to go along with ur supporting him for credit he deserves shit…theres like 5 chase utley fan groups…i guess that doesn’t show hes respected by the fans…and i’d like to add…there were atleast 2 groups for Chase that i have seen before u started…including the CHICKS

  19. quailman Says: Aug 1 11:09 AM

    FLASHS FOLLOWERS!!!!! we look forward to chanting our multiple chants all game we are so dedicated that we are taking our group to shea stadium august 5th against the ny mets to destroy all mets fans. uglies u are right it isnt about the fame BUTT…. utley is on a roll with this hit streaK and i havent seen you on the big screen once all i c is you guys sitting around and when utley is up you just chant his name there is no I in team you should be chanting for everyone not just chase us followers rarely get to see gordon on the mound because he is a closer and we still root for everyone. sals pals come and visit the wolf pack is great.

    ps. uglies why didnt u stay for the double header on sunday??????

  20. a chick Says: Aug 7 1:21 PM

    Okay…I’m a Chase’s Chick and I think that all of this nonsense fighting over fan groups is COMPLETELY ridiculous. We’re all cheering for the same team, right? Although there are some people in the fan groups that know absolutely NOTHING about baseball or the person they are cheering for, there are some of us who do. This fighting about whose a poser or the biggest fan is dumb…Utley’s Uglies - you guys came after the chicks but WHO CARES…as long as you’re having fun and supporting the phillies, that’s cool. And all those people who are calling us bitches and don’t know anything about baseball, you guys are pathetic and need to find something better to do with your time.

  21. ... Says: Aug 10 5:39 PM

  23. Dave C Says: Aug 15 9:15 PM

    hey, chases chicks, i heard you guys are all a bunch of sluts and you guys suck dick like pros. fuck the phillies, fuck your fag fan groups, fuck your team that will not be in the postseason.

    delgado and beltran are on roids and jose and pedro are illegal immigrants. david wright likes touching little boys at the park. tom glsvine belongs in a retirement home. and ur stadium looks like a huge pile of shit

  25. Dave C Says: Aug 17 10:46 PM

    Wow. I’m going to address this in order.
    1. Carlos Delgado was just in a 2-for-25 slump, or something ridiculous. Surely if he was on steroids, he’d be actually doing something for the team.
    2. Carlos Beltran, although has been performing quite well this season, has been somewhat of a disappointment. Remember in 2003 when he hit 8 HR in 12 games. Beltran is speedy, and can hit for average or power, which steroid users can not.
    3. Jose Reyes, I assume is who you are refering to, and not Jose Valentin. If you knew anything, you’d call Alay Soler an illegal immigrant, since he defected from Cuba to recieve political asylum in the Dominican Republic, and then after being signed by the Mets in September `04, was unable to acquire a visa until November of `05.
    4. Pedro Martinez is obviously not an illegal immagrant, due to the fact that he has been in the country since around 1988.
    5. David Wright is currently in a slump, although is the best 3rd baseman in the NL barnone, and arguably in the MLB.
    6. Tom Glavine IS very old.
    7. Shea Stadium looks more like a toilet “bowl” than a pile of shit. Wanna talk about piles of shit? Huge ass light up bells in the outfield…that’s some gay shit.

    –dave c, #1 met fan

    ps. yo chases chicks, let me get a blower.

  26. dave c Says: Aug 17 10:52 PM

    Honestly, I don’t give a fuck about the Phillies. I just want some of those chases chicks…i saw them on tv and they were looking well good.

    – dave c, #1 met fan

  27. joey c. Says: Aug 22 12:09 PM

    It would be hard for u cause i heard mets fans named dave c have no dick and were 2.5 games out of wild card

  28. dave c Says: Aug 26 2:32 PM

    Hey Joey C. you are a fucking pussy. Note how I post my myspace. Show your face, you vaginal wart.
