They had a different personality, drawn with the brute simplicity of a police artist's pencil. They were the skungiest bunch of biker types and overfed beef this side of Meat Loaf. In this high-priced age of media sports, a team has to have sex appeal, charisma and watchability, and the Phillies fill the bill.
