Top 10 reasons why Roy Oswalt accepted a trade to Philadelphia

10) Wants to watch Jonathan Broxton's playoff implosion from close up

9) Interested in seeing what it's like when people show up at the yard on nights other than Bobblehead promotions

8) Knew that if Ed Wade was trading him, it was going to work out for the other team

7) He wants to see what it's like to play for a team that occasionally has players touch all four bases in the same inning

6) With Roy Halladay and Cole Hamels on the roster, he won't have to face another good starter... and with Kyle Kendrick and Joe Blanton, that he's not going to get skipped in the playoffs

5) Has been reassured that he won't be booed, even if he doesn't pitch all that well

4) Appreciates that, as part of the deal, he's still going to be getting cash from the Astros

3) Can't wait to hear how positive and supportive Philadelphia sports talk radio will be of his efforts

2) Certain that he's going to make everyone forget last year's rookie of the year (J.A. Happ) and World Series hero (Cliff Lee)

1) Intrigued by the idea of playing games in September and October that matter
