    Tetris was also programmed by a Russian. (I wonder how many wins have the Phillies have received.)

    That’s only because everyone had agreed to sign it, it just took a while to get there for many of them. Horse and buggy, and such.

    Don’t forget, the Phillies date back to 1883. That gives them lots of time to lose 10,000 games.

    Given that the Phillies team is 134 years old and have played a total of approx 20,000** that gives them a 50% win average.

    I am using an approximate because I am too lazy to type in all the wins to add them up, but in earlier years fewer games were played per season than the current 162 game schedule. You can find the team history here: http://philadelphia.phillies.mlb.com/phi/history/year_by_year_results.jsp

    There’s more than one Tetris theme. “Korobeiniki” is the “A” theme.
