1. Yes, that's an appropriate place. 2. That's where we brag about our personal accomplishments and/or disclose our illnesses. If we decide to keep it, it should be restricted to Old-Timers. 3. I noticed that the Tabloid Cover Derby archives isn't included. This is one of those that will be empty until and unless the archive files are restored. -
Our Mets Hall of Fame - Removal Election 2
Benjamin Grimm replied to Cowtipper's topic in New York Mets Talk
That looks more like the Hall of Anyone Who Was Ever Even a Little Bit Good. -
I agree that there's an awful lot of white. Maybe putting a light shaded background on the posts and the forum listings would help, as would a more distinctive separator between posts. And I also agree that the pale grey navigational text would be better if darker and bolder.
-
If you convert the archive files into actual threads, most of those forums will no longer be empty.
-
Brock intends to clear out all of the Twins stuff. Hopefully that will happen soon. The forum is pretty much unusable in its current state.
-
All of the Twins content is confusing for now. I'm looking forward to seeing what this place looks like in a day or two after the dust has settled.

Everything's Alright in Right
Benjamin Grimm replied to A Boy Named Seo's topic in New York Mets Talk
Nobody seems to be saying this out loud, but isn't it to the Mets' advantage to hold him back for a while to delay his free agency? -
Two reasons for that, I think. 1. The cap on the plaque thing made this seem inevitable. 2. Having a number retired is an honor that has become more and more devalued.
-
This will give the Mets a run of five consecutive retired numbers.
-
Could the Cub be... Dick Tidrow?
-
How about Ronald Acuna?
-
JT Realmuto? If he's on the list he's probably closer to the bottom than the top, but he's been an NL East rival for a very long time.
-
Could the Cub be... Ray Burris?
-
I would think that Kingman had more than a 1.7 as a Met, though.
-
Is Gary Sheffield the Brewer?
-
I thought of Randy Jones too, but I think, perhaps incorrectly, that his number with the Mets would be better than -0.2. I'm really stumped over the Pirate. Could it possibly be Richie Hebner?
-
And could the Pirate be Jason Bay?
-
Reds... George Foster!
-
Pirates... John Candelaria?
-
For Astros, how about Kevin Bass?
-
Oops... just noticed that our Phillie's Mets WAR was -0.5, so that would rule out Dykstra. I'll go instead with Bowa.
-
For the Phillies, I know Ashburn was guessed in the other thread, and I think Wheeler was too, so I'll guess... Dykstra?
-
When I answered Pete, I was answering the "abstract identity" question, not the strategically part. Answering the question as intended, it still might be Pete, but it also could very well be Diaz.
-
I couldn't find Pete Flynn, but this image is in the avatar gallery.

Fortunately, they won't be playing against Italy during the regular season.
