Josh Q. Public:  If we took a Halladay.  Took some time to celebrate.  Just one day out of life.  It would be, it would be so nice.  -Madonna

Public Service Announcement:  Ok, here we go!  Have another drink on me Doc Holliday.  Have another drink on me.  You deserve it.  The hardest working man in show business.  There’s no business like show business like no business I know.  Two balmy nights ago at Safeco Field, Roy Halladay was on the hill.  King of the hill.  Two balmy nights ago at Safeco Field, the king of the hill notched his sixth complete game.  Notched twice as many complete games as any other pitcher in the majors.  Yowza!  Just another a day at the office.   Just another four hit, six strike-out, no walk performance.   Just like he always does.  Like he did back in ‘03.  Back in ‘03 when Halladay led the American League in wins.  Led in games started.  Led in shutouts and innings.  Needless to say, he won the Cy back in ‘03.   In an age of pitch counts, Roy Halladay is a throw back.  A go back.  An Adrianne Barbeau back.  Like my main man Leo Mazzone always says,”We pay attention to pitch counts, but there are a bunch of priorities ahead of pitch counts…What i####uy’s out there, he’s got a hundred pitches and he isn’t tired?”   Ya what about that?  Harry Leroy Halladay.  That’s what’s about that.  Harry Leroy Halladay don’t get tired.  Ya heard?  Don’t get tired.  Since 2000, Harry Leroy Halladay has the most complete games in baseball.  Thirty-five complete games in baseball.  That’s more than Livian Hernandez.  That’s more that Randy Johnson.  That’s more than a lot of folks.  He’s led baseball three out of the last five years.  A gaggle of complete games.  Rockin’ Robin Roberts would be proud.  So would Kid Nichols.  So would Warren Spahn.  Greg Maddux.  Those guys there.  So would Dave Steib and Jim Clancy.  When all is said and done, Halladay will go down as the greatest Blue Jays pitcher ever.  When all is said and done, Halladay will go down as a first ballot Hall of Famer.  When all is said and done, he will go down as the best pitcher of his generation.
