Then don't tell me to defer to Elster when I say I could close and do the totals for the NLDS POGTs because I happenend to get the first POGT thread up 4 hours after the game ended

    Nice, but I'm pretty sure I said that I was going to do one for every Metly opponent and since no onelse stepped up I was going to do something along the line of my Dodger one.

Which is why I was surprised to see that Josh was born in Venezuela (papa Jesse in Illinois) That Josh was born in the 2nd year of his dad's MLB career leads me to believe that he was a Winter Ball baby. Speaking of which, anyone hear more about the story of Jesse and one of his other sons? The Met draft pick who pushed Jesse down the stairs because he (the kid) was told it was time to go to church or something

BTW could you imagine if this was football, where its too your advantage to have your ducks in a row by at LEAST late January with a new coach in place since the combines and such takes place in Feb "THEY"RE STEALING THE PRESS FOR OUR PLAYOFF RUN! GEORGE IS GETTING ANGRY!" "Uh, they need to start implenting their new systems right away..."

[cough]yankees[cough]Yeah but I'd hardly put the 1901-1902 Baltimore Orioles on the same level as the Dodgers, Giants, A's, or even the the Colts-Ravens-Browns fiascosI'll give you that it was a poor imitation of the old NL O's and a damn shame Baltimore didn't get another franchise untill poaching the Browns from St Louis

    Of course by the same token, if many of the heartbroken Dodger fans had actually gone to the games, and had the City not called O'Malley's bluff, we'd be talking about the Brooklyn Dodgers starting Game 1 of the NLCS in O'Malley Stadium over there in Flushing, Queens on Wednesday, and hearing a lament on why they still have the old borough name on the team the way its still New York Jets and Giants!

    I actually hate the Dodgers more passionatly than I hate the Yankees.And with the Yankees, its more the fan base, though the Dodger fan base (arrive late and leave early) is part of my hatred for the Dodgers

    Okay, cleary that was smaller than what I had hoped... I'll send a larger file to the UMDB email hopefully next weekend or sometime

    Hey Yance, (and I'm sure everyone would appreciate) the Mets NLDS program featured this great spread of mostly everyone in nice Blue Caps and Pinstripe Unis! Could help with some of the missing or those in need of new head shots in the UMDB

    1986 After winning the first series in the postseaon the Mets had to wait to find out who they played next 2006 After winning the first series in the postseaon the Mets had to wait to find out who they played next!

    Mets Extra made its debut on the Mets Radio Network as the Pre and Post game program that 1986 postseason Mets Extra, while undergoing a couple of format changes, still is the Pre and Post game program on the Mets Radio Network
  15. stevejrogers
    Not 100% sure, but IIRC all Met postseason radio broadcasts, on both local and national feeds could be heard on both 1050 (1986 Local, 2006 National and 660 (1986 National, 2006 Local) on your AM dial.
  16. stevejrogers
    Yeah if Seaver wasn't being such a Diva about wanting to close out the series on his own and all

Me neither, but it seems The Boss Being The Boss stories have been few and far between, even over the course of the last 6 years. Seemed like Steinbrenner was given the Don Zimmer "Loveable Grumpy Old Uncle" label over the last few years by the NY media

    Willets Point wrote: That's interesting, with no NLDS, how is that the NLCS started this late into October? They must've played a lot more regular season games in October then. Yup. Plus the start of the season is pushed back as well. Some years the season has started on March 31st! And the Sunday Night first game has now been held on the same day teams are playing their final ST games!

    Meant to stick this in the Game 2 Thread, but when I was going through the program and I got to the scorecard section, Roger F'N Clemens was staring back at me! EEEEYCH! Good thing that page was completely unneccesary! Clemens-Pettitte-Oswalt. See you in 2007! The program was neat. In 1999 the cover was Piazza, Leiter, Henderson and Alfonzo celebrating a walkoff (akin to the 1986 Shea NLCS program which had the big guys celebrating a walk off (Hernandez, Straw, Carter, Gooden IIRC)) but in 2000 the Mets decided to keep the random-ness of the covers going with Piazza, Hampton and Bordick (Three Mikes) This year, the cover is a great montage of the NL East clincher. Very, very sweet.

    Yes, unlike SNY (and YES) the Mets 1986 Postseason Flashback Threads will feature the losses!

    Mets lose opener to Mike Scott and the Astros 1-0 Glenn Davis scores the only run of the game with a homer off Doc Gooden. Mike Scott hurls a Complete Game, allowing 5 hits and 1 walk. 2006 97-65 1st NL East, Currently performing in the NLCS at the time of this post! Whew! Its a good thing I scrapped my original plan and just stuck to using team photos for the World Championship years!

    This series finally gets a PRIME TIME SLOT! WHOOO-HOOOO! Looks like it will be ex-Card Woody Williams is being tabbed for the start against Carpenter tonight. Like WP said, hope Pads win this game, and may both tonight and Monday last untill the morning hours = 2005 83-79 3rd NL East
