BountyBowl on the road: your Pacific Northwest travel guide (Part 2)

Posted by Derek

And we're live from Seattle!  Shockingly, it's raining, but spirits are high as we sit in a glorious coffee shop on Capitol Hill and get through the morning's mail.  Good to be here!

I really don't think we're ready for the Eagles quite yet on the day of the Phillies' parade, so in the interim  I'll offer up some Seattle - Phillies details:

1. Beloved Phils senior citizen Jamie Moyer pitched in Seattle for years, and remains a fixture in the community out here.  His face remains on billboards for more than one local organization: Brown Bear Car Wash and the Jamie Moyer Foundation.  I imagine I'll be able to chat up the locals about Moyer over the next couple days -- I can only assume they're proud of him.

2. Apparently Pat Gillick still owns a house out here.  According to this dude I played golf with last summer, it's in Magnolia and Gillick "is a good guy."  That's right, BountyBowl is your one-of-a-kind source for random rumors from stranger on golf courses!

Enjoy the parade, and in the words of Mayer Nutter, "You can be joyous, but you can't be a jackass."  Seriously.  If only someone had told me that at age 19.
