And I'm not at all sure that Wally wouldn't be one of those guys. I think he might be one of those guys. And I don't think that's necessarily a bad thing.
  2. FAN reporting that Wagner took some shots at his teammates after the game. Something to the effect of "I didn't play, ask the guys who played. Oh, they're not at their lockers are they?"
  3. Backman, for 3 reasons: - Personality-wise, he is the anti-Willie. Some emotion out of the dugout would not be a bad thing. - Motivation: He knows he only has one shot, if he ever gets it. - I truly believe he will be successful for somebody. I would hate for it to be with another team.

  5. WTF happened? edit: never mind.
  6. Bergmann had 9 Ks through seven. Can our offense suck any more?
  7. Due up third this inning. 91 pitches through 7. I say let him hit.
  8. 74 pitches through 5 1/3 for Pelphrey. Make it 75 through 5 2/3 as Guzman grounds out on teh first pitch.
  9. Rob Mackowiak. Sounds like an "I'm gonna break up a Met no-no" name.
  10. Incidentally, David Newman is the front office guy to complain to. He called me after I sent a rather rambling email to the Mets complaining how lame this countdown was. He assured me that with 60 something games left "all the big names would be back." I was so dumbfounded that he actually reached out to me that I could not think of anything to say back to him.
  11. Weather Education Day representatives do the "honors" today. Supposedly channel 11's Mr. G and Linda Church will be there. Whoopty damn doo!

  13. 92 or 93...Joe Vidtko (sp?)
  14. Humber is off the board now?
  15. 86 John Mitchell?
  16. 07 Phil Humber
  17. I could be wrong, but I thought they flipped the number of the previous game. In other words, before the second home game they removed 81?
  18. Boomer Esiason and Craig Carton of the WFAN morning show will do the honors before tonight's game.
  19. Cornelius Floyd got the winning rally started with a single off Rivera to lead off the 11th.

  21. Four of these were easily googled. The Pedro question not sure about, though I think I have the answer.
  22. Which corporate sponsor gets the lowest number of the countdown? I'm guessing somebody from Keyspan, or whatever it's called now. I figure they'll come in around #12.
  23. I remember that Dykstra game. I was getting ready to head out to a kegger celebrating the (almost) end of senior year of high school. Wasnt that game in Cincy, though?
  24. Another Reds game I just thought of that at least deserves some mention, and not just 'cuz I was there: 7/12/07: Mets win 3-2; Reyes and Gotay go yard back-to-back to start the game. I believe that's the only time that's happened in Met history.
  25. I like the thread too. Particularly when comparing G-Fafif's brilliant list with what the Mets are actually doing.
