Phils @ Mets IGT 4/11/07

[Zvon]

We are already united and assembled.
We've done our part.
Time for the team to do theirs.

[TransMonk]

Hey Eaton, let's see your Perez impression.

[Zvon]

HAha--he hits David. Bases juiced.

Now our turn to do the cha-cha around the bases.

Awwww,.Alou smacks into a double play.
K, we got one back.

[Guest cooby]

This is when I miss Val and his baseball cartoon clip

[Zvon]

Ugh---Reyes lines one down the left field line,...JUST foul.
Oh man-if that was fair : triple city.

YEA!
and Reyes goes right up the middle with a seeing eye grounder and plates Val.

Only 1 run down now

[Guest Rockin' Doc]

Damn, reading through this thread has almost made me glad that I can't see this game. One thing you can say about Perez is that he's been virtually unhittable this season. I just hope this implosion doesn't completely wreck the kids psyche.

Good to read that the team is fighting back.

[Guest Johnny Dickshot]

Sele's done a fine job to keep us in it. I thought Rollins was awfully close to getting himself thrown out at third.

[Guest Johnny Dickshot]

That was a pretty pathetic showing by the heart of the order.

[Guest Kid Carsey]

A perfectly handled shot at third would have nailed Rollins. Tough bang
bang catch that gets caught more than not, I think.

(I'll have to see the replay again)

Mike Torrez yielded ten for the Mets in one game. I believe that was a record-tying effort at the time.

[Guest Johnny Dickshot]

I demand a Steve J. Rogers Rally!

]She can kill with a smile She can wound with her eyes She can ruin your faith with her casual lies And she only reveals what she wants you to see She hides like a child But she's always a woman to me She can lead you to live She can take you or leave you She can ask for the truth But she'll never believe you And she'll take what you give her as long as it's free She steals like a thief But she's always a woman to me Oh, she takes care of herself She can wait if she wants She's ahead of her time Oh, and she never gives out And she never gives in She just changes her mind She will promise you more Than the Garden of Eden Then she'll carelessly cut you And laugh while you're bleedin' But she'll bring out the best And the worst you can be Blame it all on yourself Cause she's always a woman to me She is frequently kind And she's suddenly cruel She can do as she pleases She's nobody's fool But she can't be convicted She's earned her degree And the most she will do Is throw shadows at you But she's always a woman to me

[Guest Johnny Dickshot]

This rally sucked, Steve J. Rogers style.

I'd sure like a more threatening pinch hitter than David Newhan.

[TransMonk]

At least the booth's having fun.

Matter of fact, they're laughing it up as if this were a blow out.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Benches are short these days.

Has Milledge gone down yet?

Let's cut the Billy Joel shit for, like, ever.

[Guest cooby]

Well cripes, what a lame rally song. Billy Joel or not.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Can we talk about how old Koos seemed?

[Guest Kid Carsey]

Didn't come off that old to me, good little interview from the crowded booth.
Gary is calm as a cuke talking to Jerry who isn't facing camera and Keith is
all fidgety on the left side of the screen and Ron in the back.

They should set things up differently for when Mets' deity is present.

That was sort of the idea.

You know, I don't see youse guys going to those popup-bombing lyrics sites and trying to get something out of this team.

I expect to see some some inspirational rocknroll in the 8th.

[Guest cooby]

Last night a little dancer came dancin' to my door
Last night a little angel Came pumpin cross my floor
She said "Come on baby I got a licence for love
And if it expires pray help from above"

In the midnight hour she cried- "more, more, more"
With a rebel yell she cried- "more, more, more"
In the midnight hour babe- "more, more, more"
With a rebel yell- "more, more, more"
More, more, more.

She don't like slavery, she won't sit and beg
But when I'm tired and lonely she sees me to bed
What set you free and brought you to be me babe
What set you free I need you hear by me
Because

In the midnight hour she cried- "more, more, more"
With a rebel yell she cried- "more, more, more"
In the midnight hour babe- "more, more, more"
With a rebel yell- "more, more, more"

He lives in his own heaven
Collects it to go from the seven eleven
Well he's out all night to collect a fare
Just so long, just so long it don't mess up his hair.

I walked the world with you, babe
A thousand miles with you
I dried your tears of pain, babe
A million times for you

I'd sell my soul for you babe
For money to burn with you
I'd give you all, and have none, babe
Just, just, justa, justa to have you here by me
Because

In the midnight hour she cried- "more, more, more"
With a rebel yell she cried- "more, more, more"
In the midnight hour babe- "more, more, more"
With a rebel yell she cried "more, more, more"
More, more, more.

Oh yeah little baby
she want more
More, more, more, more, more.

Oh yeah little baby
she want more
More, more, more, more

[TransMonk]

Holycrap, cooby...I was thinking Billy Idol, too.

[Guest Rockin' Doc]

Top of the order in the eighth inning for the Mets. Manuel has to be nervous, because he knows the Mets own the eighth inning this season.

[Guest cooby]

Can't get much more rousing than Billy Idol, lol...

[Guest Johnny Dickshot]

You know I led an unpopular movement to get "Rebel Yell" voted as my HS prom theme.

Only it lost to Journey's "Faithfully"...

[Guest Kid Carsey]

>>>What set you free I need you hear by me<<<

Gotta love internet lyrics.

Top o' the order in the 8th down 5-2 ... let's bang this thing out NOW!!!

[Guest Rockin' Doc]

The top of the order goes quickly and quietly. Billy Idol sucks!!!

[Guest Johnny Dickshot]

All we need is a bad call from the 2nd base ump to be 4-4 tonight.

[TransMonk]

Not that it's costing us the game by any stretch, but the umps certainly aren't having any better of a game than the Mets are.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Billy Idol fails too.

No more BILLY ***L songs. Only one Billy will do...

Life isn't easy from the singular side

Down in the hole some emotions are hard to hide

It's your decision; it's a chance that you take

It's on your head; it's a habit that's hard to break

Do you need a friend would you tell no lies?!

Would you take me in?!

Are you lonely in the dark!?

You never listen to the voices inside

They fill your ears as you run to a place to hide

You're never sure if the illusion is real

You pinch yourself but the mem'ries are all you feel

Can you break away from your alibis?!

Can you make a play?!

Will you meet me in the dark?!

Don'tcha need me?

Hey, hey!

Don'tcha need me?

Oh yea!

Don'tcha leave me?

Hey, hey!

Don'tcha need me?

Oh yea!

You take no int'rest no opinion's too dear

You make the rounds and you try to be so sincere

You guard your hopes and you pocket your dreams

You'd trade it all to avoid an unpleasant scene

Can you face the fire when you see me there?!

Can you feel the fire?!

Will you love me in the dark?!

[Guest Edgy DC]

That's my grinder.

David Wright meets me in the dark.

[Guest Johnny Dickshot]

Worst game of the year.

We've lost 3 of 4.
