I think this is going to be on of those 1/3 of the games that we know we're going to lose.

A win will be a pleasant surprise.

[Guest Rockin' Doc]

Alright, it's time to show Arizona how good our AAA team really is. Give 'em heel team.

[Guest Edgy DC]

So that's an available bench of Castro, Go-Go, and Gotay.

[Guest Kid Carsey]

Back in another online life, we used to have (I think I chaired it) -- NADs

Never Anticipate Defeat

Along the same lines at TITTs, for those needing further explanation lol.

[Guest Rockin' Doc]

Maine with a hard earned strike out of Quentin. After all the pitches he fouled off that at bat, I think Quentin was too tired almost too tired to swing anymore.

[Guest Rockin' Doc]

Delgado doing a little window shopping as he took 3 called strikes to open the bottom of the second for the Mets.

[Guest OlerudOwned]

Who needs zombie Ricky Henderson running the bases when you can have the mummified corpse of Julio Franco?

[Guest Rockin' Doc]

Franco draws a 2 out walk then steals second. Now we need a miracle, a two out hit from Newhan.

[Guest Rockin' Doc]

Newhan strikes out swinging.

Still scoreless after 2 at Shea.

[Guest Johnny Dickshot]

Don't know why but I got huge NADs tonight.

[Guest Kid Carsey]

Buxom blue-topped woman front row behind Mets' dugout, perhaps.

Here--take some of these steroids--cure what ails ya. You'll have raisinets inside of a week.

[Guest Kid Carsey]

Webb and our lineup keeping things a little dull through five.

D'backs 2, Mets sniffle.

[nymr83]

Webb is friggin good.

Maine's night is done, 6 innings 2 runs a pretty good effort but not enough tonight.

[Guest Kid Carsey]

At some point we have to stop seeing J. Franco at third ever again.

[Guest Johnny Dickshot]

Good night, all. Mota as going great till a bloop single and poorly executed fielder's choice put 2 on, then JD Drew's wussy little brother goes 3-run yard.

[Guest Kid Carsey]

Extending innings will come back to bite you in the ass almost every time.

[Guest Rockin' Doc]

Not to be too negative, but I believe that's pretty much ballgame right there.

I don't believe this collection of walking wounded can possibly score 5 runs.

[Guest Johnny Dickshot]

They're giving Newhan a hit on that. Be sure to mentally deduct it when looking at his BA the rest of the year.

[Guest Johnny Dickshot]

The Goat should really be playing more. He hits it hard.

[nymr83]

fuckin steroid man gives up a 3-run shot...the mets are rallying now but it would have looked alot better without Mota's bad inning

especially today i'd rather have Gotay at 2nd and Easley at 3rd than Easley at 2nd and Franco at 3rd.

[Guest Johnny Dickshot]

Were you watching? You can blame the HR on Mota but a weak dunk single and poor decision/poor execution on an infield grounder shoulda had him out of that mess.

No Met middle releiver is going to be good enough to survive bad luck and crap plays against the middle of the other guys order.

[Guest Johnny Dickshot]

Is Heilman officially demoted? Isn't pitching the 9th down by 4 a job for Sele or Schoeneweis?

[Guest Johnny Dickshot]

Super Steve Miller Band rally!

]Did you see the lights As they fell all around you Did you hear the music Serenade from the stars Wake up, wake up Wake up and look around you We're lost in space And the time is our own Whoa, whoa Ahhh Did you feel the wind As it blew all around you Did you feel the love That was in the air Wake up, wake up Wake up and look around you We're lost in space And the time is our own Whoa, whoa Ahh The sun comes up And it shines all around you You're lost in space And the earth is your own Whoa, whoa Whoa

[Guest Johnny Dickshot]

Maybe Boz Scaggs gets 'em up next time.

Mets = stinky. 5-1 loss.

Surprised me too. He last pitched Tuesday...but Sele last pitched Saturday.

Game sucked. Not a good crowd either.

Injuries aside -- and I don't really have as big a problem being beaten by a really good pitcher - we need to recognize that we cannot honestly expect to win with that lineup. Ever.

[Guest Rockin' Doc]

JD - "Maybe Boz Scaggs gets 'em up next time."

I think you'd be better playing something that most of the line up has actually heard, like some New Orleans jazz. Maybe some Louis Armstrong would be in order.
