The place: The Tampa Bay ESPN 1040's "THE KILLER B'S" Marc Benarzyk & Bill Freitas. The subject: B.J. Upton, who Phillips criticized on ESPN TV for not digging it out to first base after hitting a ground ball. For those of you not audio inclined at the moment, here's the gist:

"I watched Steve Phillips the other night ... I wanted to slap the guy."

To be fair to Steve Phillips, he is the one who is actually still employed by ESPN. To not be fair to Steve Phillips, he is one of the worst GMs of the last 20 years. And Harold ... well, you all know about him. Either way, this can only end well for fans of slapfights.

The KILLER B's [ESPN1470]

-New England's red zone defense clamps down again, and again it's Nate Kaeding for the three pointer.

New England 14 - 12 San Diego

-Finally New England's offense decides to participate in the fun. Kool-Aid Maroney is moving them down the field with ease.

-After a great drive Brady tossed an easy interception to Cromartie in the endzone, who proceeded to return the ball to all of five yards. Nice move dumbass.

-Marmalard's got the ball and he wants a lead.

-But not bad enough. Pats ball, which means the Chargers chances of scoring a touchdown just tripled.

End of the Third Quarter

-Holy shit, it's freezing outside. I thought it was only cold in New England and Wisconsin!

Start of the Fourth Quarter

-And the Pats start driving immediately.

-They got the ball down the field but I was in the bathroom, now it's in the red zone.

-TOUCHDOWN, TOM BRADY TO WES WELKAH! And Patriot nation rejoices with their ivory gods!

New England 21 - 12 San Diego

-Marmalard just kind of flipped it in the general direction of Darren Sproles, for some reason the Pats fans cry for grounding. Oh I know why, they're the spoiled fucking brats of sports fans.

-There's a big 3rd conversion for the Chargers. Once again they look to Antonio Gates. That makes three looks and 2 catches. I'd recommend more of both. Turner keeps things going with another first down, and we see a replay of Marmalard diving like Gregorio Paulisetti. What a competitor! /Mike Patrick

-Rodney Harrison just decked Marmalard for roughly the fifth time. His transition from safety to defensive end sure went smoothly. The Pats are getting it back.

-Maroney continues to run wild on the Chargers defense, which just makes me think of this ridiculous TBL post from a while back and laugh like a little girl (don't forget to check the comments!).

-If Massholes were better people they would have loved Kevin Faulk for the last decade the way they've loved Wes Welker for six months.

-Maroney and Faulk keep doing their thing. Maybe LaDainian should just take the helmet off already.

-You know what's fun to do during the commercials? Download porn! Apparently the internet is full of the stuff.

-Another first down for Maroney, and this one is over. These fucking cocksuckers don't even have the decency to cover the spread. Get fucked, shitheads.

Final Score: New England 21 - 12 San Diego
