This place is crazy. I figured I'd find all youse guys here.

Is this the matrix? If so, I'm glad you're all here. -
Let us also talk about Freddy Peralta
TransMonk replied to Benjamin Grimm's topic in New York Mets Talk
I'm weary of Peralta having the "Ace" moniker. He's got eight seasons with only two having an ERA under 3.00. I would expect regression to his mean next year, which would be a good but not amazing (feel free to prove me wrong, Freddy). I like the trade, but he is a middle of the rotation guy most years. -
Fuzzy slipper.

Moving to a new location
TransMonk replied to Benjamin Grimm's topic in Grand Central Mets Issues & Suggestions
Awesome, BG! It totally worked! -

Is there a trick to logging in and staying logged in? It wants my password every time even though I have checked the box to remember me. Thanks to all you contributed to making the new site work! -
He will be a liability for them in the latter end of the deal. We got his best years. Hadn't expected him to return. However, this team has no identity right now. I can't even see what the front office is trying to do. SHOW ME THE PLAN!
-
I will happily donate to any costs as well.
-
Agreed.

I have Peacock...I'll watch it either tonight or tomorrow night. I'd like to revisit.

I liked it...been a long time since I've watched it. Good performances all around and a compelling story. Certainly a little hokey toward the end, but if it came on the TV, I wouldn't turn the channel.

Expansion and Realignment (split from Aug 17 IGT)
TransMonk replied to metirish's topic in New York Mets Talk
Baseball is losing me as a fan more and more each year. All of this **** has XFL'd the league compared to 20 years ago. Yeah, it's baseball, I guess, but it is not what it was for the first 40 years of my life. Insert "old man yelling at clouds" meme here. Expansion/realignment needs to be 8 divisions of 4 teams. East/West for playoffs and awards. I would advocate for teams playing everyone in their division 24 times then ONLY 3 games against EVERY other non-division team flipping home and away each season. Cut down on travel and really emphasize the divisional races and rivalries. It would have been SOOOO much better if they would have waited to universalize the DH until any expansion/realignment occurred. Manfred has pretty much ruined the game for me. -
First player I ever loved. Damn.

August 9 in Milwaukee. They love Alonso HRs there.
-
By my count, Pete Alonso needs 27 home runs to pass Darryl Strawberry as the Mets all-time HR leader. Predict the date he becomes the Mets HR King. For reference, these are other dates he hit HR #27 during a single season in his career: 2019: June 23 2021: August 1 2022: August 1 2023: July 25 2024: August 17

Times of India?

Next year's first-time class is even weaker, IMO. [fimg=500]https://pbs.twimg.com/media/Gh3LoN8XAAAVbP_?format=jpg&name=large[/fimg]

Just get it done. This conundrum needs to end.

It does not seem like the Yanks are interested...at all. Who else are we even competing against? It seems like his list of suitors would be small, hopefully giving NYM advantages.

Same.

I liked it. It's not a great movie, but it made me remember what a fan of David Fincher's direction I am. The dark and light, zoom/focus shots, elaborate camera follows...the guy has a technique that I love. It made me go down a rabbit hole of his music videos and I realized the guy basically defined what sex and sensuality was to me as a 14 year old. The only gripe I really had was that there wasn't a lot of origin on why I should root for this guy doing what he did. For such a cold and calculated guy, I didn't believe in his motivation for his actions. It is based on a foreign graphic novel that I haven't read, so maybe it was being true to how that is presented. But overall, I enjoyed it. Yes, the fight scene was great and The Smiths were a good choice.
-
I concur with Lorcan. It eclipsed Breaking Bad for me as the GOAT during it's final season.
-
I finished this up in isolation. It was very, very long, but overall I really enjoyed it. The perpetual smile on Billy Preston's face in everyone of his shots is one of my favorite parts. You can tell how blown away he is that the biggest band in the world thought they needed to add another guy and that he was that guy. Great stuff!

It amazes me that all of this footage was hiding for so long and never leaked…not even many specifics of the story much less the pictures. I've heard people debate the lore of this period. I think it's giving a different perspective for all fans on the period and the individual personalities. My daughter was VERY interested in watching this when the trailer came out, but she tapped out after the first hour. She couldn't keep up with the accents or the subtitles and got frustrated.
