  1. I read recently that Reggie had a tough first season in the Bronx and was even booed a few times.....
  2. Is Green decent at first base?,if we make it to the WS we could play him there and DH Delgado with Chavez in RF.
  3. I just read the article over at si.com,some good stuff in it....
  4. A-Rod on getting hammered by the fans and media. ] "(Mike) Mussina doesn't get hammered at all," he is quoted as saying. "He's making a boatload of money. Giambi's making ($20.4 million), which is fine and dandy, but it seems those guys get a pass. When people write (bad things) about me, I don't know if it's (because) I'm good-looking, I'm biracial, I make the most money, I play on the most popular team . . ." good looking?...bleh http://www.nydailynews.com/sports/baseball/yankees/story/454161p-382201c.html
  5. ] And I want to see pinstripes and blue in the postseason. I think (though I'm not sure) the Mets may have worn black jerseys and caps for every postseason game they played in 1999 and 2000. Ron asked Gary about that last night and Gary thought they wore the black in just about every game going to the WS.
  6. ]At trial, he's Gotti believe! John A. (Junior) Gotti was rooting for a court victory yesterday, but just 24 hours earlier he was pulling for the Mets to win the pennant.That probably wouldn't have been the case if the Dapper Don was still around, he told the Daily News yesterday.As a youngster in 1972, Gotti followed the lead of others in his Brooklyn neighborhood and rooted for the Mets.Then his father got home from prison and found his son's bedroom wall plastered with Mets banners and his son walking around in a Mets cap."My father says, 'You know, I've been a Yankees fan since I was a kid,'" Gotti recalled while jurors pored through evidence during the first day of deliberations in his racketeering trial."I pulled [the Mets' stuff] down."His mother told them to leave them up. "You've got to be your own man," she told him. http://www.nydailynews.com/sports/baseball/mets/story/454206p-382141c.html
  7. ] Did I read somewhere, maybe this forum, that it's Charlie Samuels' call on what uniforms to wear for each game? Ron and Gary were talking about this last night,Ron would like to see more of the clasic home uni with blue caps,Gary said that if you asked Charlie Samuels' he'd tell you that the Mets win/loss record on those uniforms is not good.
  8. From Newsday. ] Turnstiles have a good year, too September 20, 2006 When Josh Willingham's lazy fly ball dropped into Cliff Floyd's glove in leftfield Monday night, ending the Mets' 18-year division title drought, the ecstatic crowd of 46,729 at Shea Stadium fittingly set an all-time season attendance record. The team has sold 3,087,648 tickets at home this season. "Winning is the ultimate attraction but I do think New York is attracted to this team because of its composition," said Dave Howard, the Mets' executive vice president for business operations. "You have the fact that this is a diverse team ethnically. It's diverse in terms of age. You have veterans. You've got young and up-and-coming players. It's a team that has played a scrappy, resilient brand of baseball that New Yorkers are attracted to."
  9. Tonight Ron asked Gary if the Mets wore the black uni during the 2000 post-season, Gary thought for a sec and said that they wore the black uni mostly during that run....
  10. I admit I have slacked in voting this season, just some shit going on that's all and I have not seen all the games and I won't vote if I don't watch the game....but I think you guys do a great job.
  11. So does Tucker make the post-season roster?, he's a good bat of the bench.
  12. Wagner is fine,warming up Gary said.
  13. Today would have been Bob Murphy's birthday,his widow and daughter are at the game.....thanks to gary for the info.
  14. I'm very worried that Pedro has only pitched 3 innings since August 15th., and his reaction after getting pulled his last start(nearly crying on the bench) has me worried.
  15. Gary just said that Franco is starting at third base for the first time in twenty four years.......WOW
  16. Gary - "you'd be fined for posting this lineup for a spring training game"
  17. Who's the fireballing ace righty on the current staff?
  18. ] Ninth Inning: Everbody on their feet. Loudest ovation for Enter Sandman so far this season. "Fans, just a reminder, it is dangerous and illegal to enter onto the playing field, and anyone doing so will be arrested." Remember the guy that ran onto the field a few years ago?,I think he got some rather heavy jail time,I forget the circumstances of what happened.
  19. Conas at� t� Jim?
  20. It would have been cool if Ralph was at the game,my fave memory of the 2001 season was Ralph hoisting the NL banner with Seaver,at least I think it was Seaver.
  21. This is a great picture,nothing jerky here
  22. ] I don't mind saying... Wright looked kind of jerky slogging back out there with the cigar. I was thinking that myself.
  23. Wild night at Dodger stadium What a freaking game that was.
  24. From an article I read about the Dodger game last night. ] Kent hit two doubles, giving him 499 in his career and tying him for 45th place on baseball's career list with Rusty Staub.
