May need more than the Avengers...

Okay this is going to be a long one...

="Zvon"]Met fans- Unite & assemble for the Xman!

Yeah, course I'm having resizing problems so maybe in a while, hopefully by, eh, the time the park opens up! HA!

A Man Alone. Hey Barry, thats not a pigeon, thats the Raven, Quoth The Raven, NEVER MORE! >

That still didn't turn the page?

Well I think THAT turned the page! Hell thats pretty darn good pickup for a Kodak!

Where do you think you are going Jose?

BTW, I'm no Iubitul but I snapped a pretty one of the crane with the Old Glory on top during the Yankee series' Sunday night game, with the evening sky and everything. Cute. Its on my laptop, but if I do my AP-New Shea In Progress thread, thats picture 1

Reading RedZone's HOF threads make me want one for that place. Anything is better than that closet we have now!

BTW, I should really start a progression of "New Shea" AP Thread This was during the Giants series in June, I'm going back on Sunday, hopefully some more progess shots will be taken

Thats why they are Cincinutty!

Well at least we are outclassing these guys right now http://amazinz.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=16132

Not for lack of trying, I've been promoting CPF in every "Other Team Boards" threads I notice!

Course alot of that could be just a bunch of off topic conversations between posters, especially with a rain delay

Up to 19 on MOFO, but they are a consistant bunch over there

Hell, I think there should be a 5 year waiting period before any "worst ever"-type labels are applied. Good point. Hell great case in point, using the Kazmir example (and through in Gen K as well) match Kazmir up with any "old school, ya gotta THROW, THROW, THROW, and then THROW SOME MORE, FUCK PITCH COUNTS" Dallas Green types and who knows Scott Kazmir could become another Kerry Wood/Jason Isringhausen/Paul Wilson/Bill Pulsipher type. 1998 everyone thought Kerry Wood was poised to take his place as the heir apparant to Roger Clemens (especially using Rocket's and Ryan's Texan background) and look how far he's fallen through the years Getting back to Ryan, Nolan was also very much not a guy who was going to do well here, period. Guy was very introverted, hated the limelight, plus he was too inconsistant to really be plugged into a specific role. It really was a case of sending him to the right change of scenery. Conversley, even if we had the 72-79 Ryan (Not sure if the time frame lines up right, but there'd be NO WAY the deLoruets were going to sign him to a 1 million contract, and it would set a real bad precesdent for Wilpon/Doubleday to start pulling a move like that either) what good would it have gotten? A Game 6 1973 WS win? I'm not sure

The blame lies directly with Bowie Kuhn, Bill Veeck and later Jerry Reinsdorf for their using Minnie Minoso in the 70's and 80's as a stunt to get Minnie the "most decades played in" record. Course Veeck and Finley did go to the Satchel Paige well one too many times so. I mean Finley even wanted to do a photo shoot of a young Catfish Hunter on Paige's lap for crying out loud!

HA! Then Jeter still has a long way to go, because Lawrence Peter Berra has what, 13 rings as a uniformed personel (10 as a player 3 as a coach) so the Lord of the Rings in this town is still Yogi Berra! And Bill Dickey/Frank Crosetti are also in that range

Heh, only a few years back morons on WFAN and ESPN Radio would have suggested Reyes would be sidelined for the year and it was a career threatning injury! "Oh but he won't be able to grip the bat right!" What? Just a little laughing at the face of people who thought Reyes would be injury prone his entire career and would never play 120+ games in his career Kind of the same as people wondering when Vlad Guerrero's back is going to give out Maybe it really was the medical staff's fault!
