  1. "ohh, Carlos Belts one." "It's a Bomb-Bay from Jason." Melky Cabrera must have been special, cuz he got two doses of Sterling-isms on his home runs: "A home run for Cabrera. Ahh, the Melk-man delivers. Cause that's the Melky Way."
  2. What would Sterling's calls for his HRs be? "It's maas-terful." "It's a Monster Maas." "it's a home run for Kevin, and the pitcher says No Maas!" "Ohhh, Kevin killed it!" Anyhow we did live through Kevin Maas again when the Yanks were good: Remember the September of Shane Spencer?

  4. Nothing Piniero said there is really all that upsetting. Not much we didn't know or expect. Leave it to Harper though to find a negative Mets spin for his column.
  5. Great outfield assist, but he did strike down a barely-trying Adam Dunn. If that mars it at all I don't know. Not like he gunned down Nyjer Morgan. Pujols has an argument for early MVP too.
  6. The Brandon Knight, Philip Humber, and Brian Lawrence starts really stand out in those Septembers.
  7. Gwynn's at San Diego State, diff. university than ole Canzoneri. I could try and tackle some of the others tomorrow.
  8. A Boy Named Seo wrote: I think my favorite chick is the one second from the right. She's the only one not trying to be sexy and that makes her sexy. Plus, she's got an old skool Mets champs tee that she didn't cut up to make into a skirt or something. Yup, that's my chick. Those are chicks? (other than the third from left)
  9. Raul Valdez warming in the pen. Who's roster spot did he take? Tejada?

  11. On the plus side, if you had to move seats, last night was the night to do it. There were some left field sections that had maybe a handful of people and that was it. Nice seeing the changes made to the park. I loved the HOF (interesting conspiracy theory from a non-Mets fan: that the Wilpons held off on doing a HOF the first year because they worried it might draw attention away from the Rotunda), and McFaddens, while loud and lacking any kind of charm, is well-staffed and a much-needed meet-up spot.

  13. Edgy DC wrote: We were kind of strange in naming the teams directly after their sponsors, calling them "Mormile Florist" and "Rockville Realty" instead of "Mormile's Fightin' Florists" and "Rockville Rockin' Realtors" or some collective noun action. Maybe that's changed in the home burg. When I was 14, Joan Jett (and all threads lead there), newly arrived in Rockville Centre, sponsored a team called the Blackhearts, which had to be good for about five wins a year. My little league also used sponsor names for the team name. Zaro's and Carvel were powerhouses my first year. First Federal had the worst uniforms (red, white, blue, and green?). I played for B'nai Brith for three years. No Jews on the team, so few of us had any idea what we were. Our unis were pretty cool: pinstripes with orange caps, numbers, and stirrups. I then converted when I got to the majors, playing for St. Raymond. Unis sucked: bright red jersey, blue pants, red stirrups, red cap. I looked like I played for Team Cuba.
  14. 10th inning debuts (12): outfielder, 1985 Terry Blocker 14th inning debut (1) Infielder, 1987 Gregg Jefferies
  15. Why not try StubHub or some other on-line site, FMan? Weekday matinees tend to have low prices on line.
  16. That's a balk, seriously?
  17. That would have been low on a list of "how will the Mets F&*^%k this one up".
  18. "And out comes Ray Ramirez to take a look..."
  19. After representing the Mets (in black shirts and hats, yuk) in T-Ball 5 last year, little Solo has been assigned to the Dodgers for T-6. Generic blue shirt, blue hat uniform. As a coach, I have feared the day that we get assigned to teh Yankees. Hasn't happened yet, but we have a lot of years to come.
