Love this story, love the setting, love what you did with the characters, highly amused by Jim's status as local celebrity. Basically, all around amazingly good fun.

I just read this. Obviously slightly behind everyone else. But I LOVED it!! I live within a half and hour of Philly, so all the sports references made me feel like I could really, really relate. I love some good AU! Nice job :)

I'm still reading but have got tosay I love it so far. In a story as structured as this one the details of how they spent their night together really have no place. So I just had to say great story and good decision to leave out the first night smut. Really isnt it a little bit hotter that way anyway?
Author's Response: Thank you!! I'm glad you support my choice to leave the first night smut out. I don't write particularly good smut anyway (I get too embarrassed), so it's probably just better if people make up their own ideas about what happened that night. ;) Hope you enjoy the rest of it!!

I've had this sitting around to review for a while. Oops, never got around to it. Oh well. Better late than never (even if this is just one chapter, and I still have a bit more to read til the end).
I love how in character these characters are. Like, this could just be its own little show, just as much as the Scranton verison is. (reminds me of Friends, because I just watched the episode where they did AU, and in the commentary, they said that this could be just as interesting as a show), so its like that. This could totally work as a show.
Except then, poor Jim would never know the tonnage price of paper, and well, that would be a travesty.
Oh, the Phyllis who is nice and not a total mean bitch like she has seemingly become on the show. Can we just do a fandom replacement of a character?
Just picturing the way Jim was looking at her in the photo makes me smile and grin like a silly little lovesick puppy.
Okay, well, the entire chapter makes me smile and grin.
Now I have enough happiness so I can go... exercise or something equally unfun.
Author's Response: Aw, thank you for taking the time to review this!! Looking back on it, I can definitely see how this could be its own show; it was really fun taking the characters and put them in this whole other world that worked just as well for them. LOL Phyllis! Yeah, what's happened to her? Maybe it's like what happened to Ryan; once she got a little power, she totally took complete advantage of it. Glad I made you smile! Smile enough to feel motivated to exercise even!! That's something. Thank you so much for all the help you gave on this story; you really made it like a thousand times better than it was. :)

NOOOOOOOOOOO It's finished :( but amazing end, just I'll miss it :(
Author's Response: So glad you enjoyed it! Thank you for all the lovely reviews!!

Is it wrong I find it hot that Jim is all beaten up? lol.
As always loved it, loved Dwight and Angela and you nailed Michael perfectly.
Author's Response: Thank you! I'm glad you think I got the characterizations correctly; it's something I really try hard at.

I freaking love this story so much, I just have to shamefully admit I thought this was a baseball team until you mentioned the lakers lmao.
Author's Response: LOL! Yeah the actual sports part is not a strong point, so I can see how you could be misled. It's not too important to understand though. Thanks again!!

LOVED the Budha reference, so made me lmfao. Love love love this chapter.
Author's Response: Thanks so much! I'm happy that made you laugh.

Friends? and omg Roy is scary :(
I love Pam's. he broke your flowers, it melted my heart :)
Author's Response: Correct! And thank you, I'm glad you thought it was a touching scene at the end. :)

This is one of my fav stories.
There isn't anything hotter than Jim as a sports writer.
I think I'm going to go read it again and again and again. Seriously!!
Author's Response: Thank you so much!! I'm so glad you like enough to reread it. And you are definitely right, I can't think of anything hotter than sportswriter Jim. ;) Thanks again!!

Finally catchin up... sorry for the delay ... I suck. Another sweet chapter. I think you did a great job of tying together their story. As a Laker fan, I think a Lakers v. 76ers final is pure fiction. :)
Author's Response: Thank you!! I'm glad you came back and finished it!! Yeah, I do realize the ending is pretty far fetched, but I think anything could happen with a good luck charm like Jim. ;) Thanks again!!

This was so great, I really loved this story from the start. Wonderful ending too. Nothing better than engaged JAM! I look forward to the next one! it's been a pleasure.
Author's Response: Thank you so much iwantphillyjim! Really, I couldn't have done this without you; you were so helpful and encouraging the whole way through, and really inspired and motivated me to keep writing. I'm so glad you enjoyed the ending, and I'm glad you're excited for my new story! It's slowly coming along, but I look forward t you reading it once it's up. Thank you so, so much again; definitely consider yourself a co-author on this one. ;)

this is one of my favorite stories!!!! i live in ridley park which is not far from glenolden which made the story close to home for me!!
Author's Response: Thank you!! You can thank NanReg and iwantphillyjim for all the Philly-accurate details. That authenticity was definitely something I wanted in this story, and I'm so glad it made it more enriching more you. Thanks again!!

What a wonderful ending. Kismet is definitely the word I would use to describe our wonderful Jim and Pam.
Thanks for the shout-out in your end notes and thanks for the sweet and entertaining story. Yay for Philly Jam!
Author's Response: Thanks so much Beeswax!! I'm really glad you liked the ending. They are definitely kismet. :) Thanks again!!

Very cute ending. I like your Katy better than the one on the show! And I'm glad that ONE of us is finishing their story! Nice job...
Author's Response: Thanks, VB! Yeah, I never really saw Katy as a big threat on the show, so i didn't want to make her one here. Thanks again; glad you enjoyed it!!

Thank you for coming back and finishing this story. I really liked it alot. The proposal was fantastic.
Author's Response: Thank you!! Yeah there was no way I wasn't going to finish it; it was just a matter of when it was going to get finished. Glad you liked it!!
Date: October 03, 2008 10:45 am Title: Cause for Celebration
Aaw, love it. Since I've kind of come down from my "real" Jim and Pam proposal high, I actually thought to myself the other day, "What happened to Philly Jam?" Glad to see you back, Dundie! How 'bout a sequel over Christmas break? Pretty please?
Author's Response: Thank you so much!! I'll admit it, by the end of summer I was losing a bit of steam on this story. But that "real" proposal definitely jolted this story back to life. I mean, I always was going to end it with a proposal, but seeing it actually happen on the show was quite the motivator. ;) I'm not sure what I'd write for a sequel, but I have another short, fun fic in the works that hopefully I'll post soon. Thanks again; really glad you liked it!!

Goodbye PhillyJam. You were an AU shining light in a dark JAMless summer. Thanks for the great read Dundie All-Star! And a sweet hopeful end to their story. As always a great read but I'm sorry to see it go. I look forward to your next adventure!
Author's Response: Thank you so much!! I agree, it even made me happy this summer! Lol. Glad I could write something to keep you going through the doldrums, and hopefully I'll have another fic ready to post soon. Thanks again so glad you enjoyed it!!

Well done, Dundie All-Star!!! Thanks for the big smile. I enjoyed this from start to finish. Looking forward to what you have in store next ; )
Author's Response: Thanks so much NanReg!! You have been the biggest help on this, and I don't even know how I can possibly repay you (except for maybe several Schrute Bucks on the forums). I definitely couldn't have done it without you though, so definitely consider yourself a co-author on this. ;)
Date: October 03, 2008 05:09 am Title: Cause for Celebration
aww so cute of an ending! I love how you worked in pieces of the real show again! Gah! Great job Dundie All-Star!! I hope you start writng more soon :) I miss this already.
Author's Response: Thanks so much!! Yeah, working in callbacks from the show is fun. :) I have another short fic in the works already, but I probably won't post it until I'm done with it. I hate having people wait for more. Thank you again; I'm glad you liked it!!
Date: October 02, 2008 10:07 pm Title: Cause for Celebration
WHOA THERE...it's done?! I really loved this chapter, it was nicely written.
But come on...can a girl get an epilogue? Please??? I need more fluff, especially since you made me wait a month for this last chapter. Throw in some kids, or something, I beg of you.
I'm shutting up now.
Author's Response: LOL thank you!! I don't know what I'd write for an epilogue though. I feel like epilogues can sometimes be really forced, like sequels to Disney animation classics. (Yikes.) I prefer the "and they lived happily ever after" ending instead. I am sorry I had to make you wait so long for this chapter though; you have my deepest apologies. :\ Glad you liked it at least!!

Thank you for the update. I'm in need of a happy JAM instead of a broken up JAM. I love Angela and Dwight in this story. It makes me smile just reading about their actions. Can't wait for more.
Author's Response: Oh of course! Glad I could fulfill that need, even if I did put Jim in the hospital. :D Glad you're liking Dwight and Angela as well. Thanks for the review!

Oh, the drama! Nice job, as always.
Author's Response: Thanks NanReg! Glad you liked it. :)

oh, hey, dundie all-star, just stumbled on this story and found it interesting...
bah, i can't keep up this ruse.
you know i love this! angela's simple line about different kind of sin? kinda gave me chills, and whereas i'd usually just laugh at that, i thought it lent gravity to the scene. and for some reason, michael saying "no need for consternation" really made me laugh! and you know i love your callbacks, and dwight's here was no exception. fantabulous, dahling.
(i hope a 10 s a good rating...i'm new at all this.)
Author's Response: LOL you're ridiculous. Thanks for pointing out those two lines. I agree with you about the Angela one; it's funny because it's Angela thinking about sin (along the same lines of "you shouldn't joke about that" in Dinner Party), but it's also serious because Roy's basically beating Jim to a bloody pulp. Kinda one of those, "haha... ohh" moments. And as for Michael's line, "consternation" just always cracks me up, and so basically my only goal for this chapter was to get that line in there somewhere.rnrn10 is VERY good. :D
