    Mets � Willets Point wrote: This article announces that Chelsea and Celtic will be playing a football match at Yankee Stadium III this summer. What grinds my gears is the opening sentence "For the first time in 36 years, a soccer game is set to be held at Yankee Stadium this summer." And thus the media-assisted mythology that allowed the 1976 Yankee Stadium II to be the same place where Ruth and Gehrig played is now considering the four-year old ballpark to be the same place that Pele played. At least with MFYSI & MFYSII one could argue that they were built on the same site but there's no excuse for this BS. two contrasting teams , Chelsea as blue a Brit team as there is(historically Chelsea fans would be cut from the same cloth as Glasgow Rangers fans).....and Celtic as historically Irish as there is.

    Edgy DC wrote: Koufax called Bobby Parnell's arm "exceptional" and had a long chat with the righty. The crux of their talk revolved around mechanics more than mental approach: �Just little slight changes, nothing definite, where you hold [the ball], how you hold it and how you use it a lot," Koufax said. "This was more mechanical. Times have changed. Times have changed in what people believe, and I just believe a little differently sometimes." Oh for fucks sake Sandy, it's the same nonsense you tell each Spring Training at Mets camp. I know spring has arrived when Koufax spouts auld guff talk. Cue Bobby saying all manner of nonsense about the great advice he got. All time great though is Sandy.

    Well, now that I know he has a curve I would like to revise my prediction. He'll fall in love with it after some early success and subsequently fall asunder.
  10. metirish
    He throws his curve 98 mph....same as his other pitch.
  11. metirish
    In Bob's defense he's a total wanker.
  12. metirish
    He likes you, no doubt about that.

    History is not kind to Omar but fuck we had some good times Bob after some dreadful years.....

    This is the year Bobby fulfills the dream ..............he shall come to be known as "Work Horse Bobby" 81 IP - 7-2 - 3.15 ERA - 25 BBs - 89Ks - 25 saves.....takes over from Francisco during the pennant drive

    Lat place I heard it was on MLB Networks "greatest ever catches" show recently.
  16. metirish
    I would agree with calling him "filler" if he wasn't the starting CF and there was someone of youth coming mid-season.
  17. metirish
    Yeah, like Sue a lot, NBC getting a lot of grief for this decision......an unabashed Mets fan.

    So great to watch Mets baseball....great to hear the ump with the exaggerated STRIIIIIIKE call...............betting Byrdek becomes a go to guy to talk to this season.....providing of course he pitches decently ....
