If it's true a rich man leads a sad life
That's what they say, from day to day
Then what do the poor do with their lives?
On judgment day, with nothin' to say?

I've been beat up, I've been thrown Out
But I'm not down, Oh I'm not down
I've been shown up, but I've grown up
And I'm not down, Oh I'm not down

On my own I faced a gang of jeering
In strange streets
When my nerves were pumping out
I Fought my fear in, I didn't run
I was not done

I've been beat up, I've been thrown Out
But I'm not down, No I'm not down
I've been shown up, but I've grown up
And I'm not down, No I'm not down

So I have lived, that kind of day
When none of your sorrows will go away
Go down and down and hit the floor
Down and down and down some more
Depression
But I know, there'll be some way
When I can swing everything back my way
Like skyscrapers, rising up
Floor by floor, I'm not giving up

So you rock around and think that
You're the toughest
In the world, the whole wide world
But you're streets away from where
It gets the roughest
You ain't been there

I've been beat up, I've been thrown Out
But I'm not down, No I'm not down
I've been shown up, but I've grown up
And I'm not down, No I'm not down

No I'm not down
No I'm not down
No I'm not down
No I'm not down
No I'm not down

You are 100% wrong on the hit over Gotay. Probably Beltran's too but I missed it.

[nymr83]

getting swept 4 games in philly is disgusting. can this fucking bullpen hold a fucking lead? i'm not suprised that the offense put up a 5 spot in the 8th, the offense is GOOD whe healthy which it now is, the bullpen has been blowing games left and right all year long.

[Guest Kid Carsey]

Nym83: >>>i'm not suprised that the offense put up a 5 spot<<<

You weren't surprised today after they only score 2 runs on Fri, 3 runs on Sat,
2 runs on Sun, 2 runs on Mon, 2 runs on Tues, 2 runs on Wed?

What was different about today?

[bmfc1]

I guess this is ironic: I left work in the 9th, got on the Red Line home, followed the end of the game on my Blackberry, got into my car and put on the XM 70s channel because baseball was the last thing I wanted to hear, and the first song that came on was "Takin' Care of Business."

[metirish]

I'm gutted,would not be surprised to see Philly take the bit between the teeth and run with it now,still we have them at Shea in a few weeks.


I can't remember being this disapointed in the regular season ever...

[Guest Edgy DC]

Come on. Sunrise at 6:20 AM tomorrow.

[Guest Kid Carsey]

I'm just not all that pissed off for some reason. Everyone can feel the way
they want and rant and rave but the truth of the matter is it's coming down
to what everyone thought the East would be ... a dog fight between NY, Atl,
and Phil ... strap 'em on and get ready for tomorrow nigh' is what I think.

30 games in the balance.

[Guest Johnny Dickshot]

The trick is to think of them as the '07 Mets and not the '27 Yankees.

[metirish]

I'm watching the encore of this game on SNY and I'm all depressed again,they ran fucking wild in the ninth.....

You're a masochist.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Gotay should have had that po. It's not like the effort wasn't there, but he didn't get back quickly, and wasn't fully extended when he got there. There were maybe three balls today I imagine a healthy Castillo gets to, but a healthy Castillo wasn't available.

The plop in front of Beltran? Yeah, I don't know why he was playing that deep.

[metirish]

LoDuca was understandably hot after the game.....

] "We'll get our chance to come back and take care of these guys," Lo Duca said. "They're dancing around the field now, but we'll see what happens when the time comes."

[Guest Johnny Dickshot]

Whatever Paul. How about catching a basestealer.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Go, Paul.

A question on that ninth inning, were they running crazy on Wagner or LoDuca ,shouldn't your closer pay some attention to the runners.

It was a disgrace.

[Guest Edgy DC]

Paul not firing at Werth either time makes it hard to indict him.

Though a catcher can help a pitcher check the guy at second.

[Guest Johnny Dickshot]

I'm mainly P.O.ed at his poor throw in Wednesday's game.

Wagner's abject failure is another thing entirely.
