  1. Come on Murphy. It's Terence MacSwiney Day. Do it for Terence!

  4. Didn't even get his arm up in the air. A-Rod is a genius.
  5. ROYALDISLOYAL!!!
  6. I'm very excited to see this "Urbibe" character.
  7. I'd vote Plawecki but the man is keeping him down. And I'm sure not hoping for a d'Arnaud injury. I'd go with Wright because that would be the swellest, but it's hard to ignore how... committed Curtis Granderson has been through this whole post-season, in all facets of his game: stealing bases, stealing homers, switching between get-on-base mode and get-those-baserunners-home mode. He's done everything — except hit a homer, despite proving himself more than capable in that department all season. I vote Grand.
  8. That's good, but I haven't gone an hour without thinking about them in.... gosh, it's been years.
  9. Trapezoid O'Reilly? Isoceles Karpowicz?
  10. Didn't we fight a war to reject monarchy in America? Why are these people even allowed to exist? To persistently practice and advocate for un-American, anti-Democratic systems?
  11. The first win redeems the foggy Art Howe era. The second win clears the books on Willie the Winner. Win game three and the Age of Jerry Manuel never happened. A fourth win and the accompanying championship would be, of course, all about Terry, securing his legend. His quirky, quirky legend.

  12. That's a nice fountain in centerfield. It's a shame that it will soon flow red with the blood of our vanquished enemies.
  13. The good news for him is that the crisis got him on the team's 40-man roster. Maybe he had to be added this offseason anyhow, but it's a step forward for him that forces him into serious consideration for 2016.
  14. The unfaithful suits at Royal Crown Cola, no longer sponsoring the Mets. [fimg=350]https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/736x/aa/74/bd/aa74bd21e4ed4dea1da6d50de299772d.jpg[/fimg]
  15. The Royals dropped pinch-runner Terrance Gore from their roster and added Raul A. Mondesi (yes, his son), a 20-year old rookie who's never played above AA. He would be the first player to make his major league debut in the World Series. He's a shortstop. Was 19-for-25 stealing bases this year. http://www.baseball-reference.com/register/player.cgi?id=mondes000ada Bug Holliday, debuted in the pre-World Series World Series, 1885.

  17. I'm glad for this. Let's wallop some American League arses.
  18. The tabloids are converging on the story, and converging with each other. [fimg=275]https://thenypost.files.wordpress.com/2015/10/27-p1_lcf-copy.jpg?quality=100&strip=all&w=390[/fimg]
  19. I don't know why we're talking about Curtis Granderson. You were joking. Or you weren't. There's nothing clear about it. You say now you're serious, but you shifted earlier. Very clever of you. Very impossible to refute by anybody. I guess I won't try. I don't know why you're pissed at me. Lunchbucket said your assessment of how the Mets built the team was bullshit. Centerfield wrote: If "the logic is the same", then one can only conclude that ripping a player online is wrong. No, the logic of If the player is booed, and then excels, then the ire of fans is again shown to have been justified, because the ire and the fear of ire is what motivates him. is the same. Rip all you want. Take it easy.

  21. Well, for someone who is joking, you take defending your position dead seriously. "Boobird" = not a particularly serious appellation itself. But whether you are booing a guy directly or ripping him online, the logic is the same. You cannot be proven wrong no matter how the evidence breaks. That sort of logic doesn't sit well with me, and I try and respond to it when it is presented, and respond in the same vein: lightly if it's delivered lightly, seriously if it's delivered seriously. But as you go from joking to serious, depending on how vulnerable your arguments are, it's hard to gauge. Here you are defending your position point-by-intricate point but then saying it's not serious. I'm not sure then how to respond at all. I'll just say I disagree.
  22. Yes I tried to suggest as much. You don't find anything self-serving in Vic's post? His tone seems to suggest he's fully aware of the absurdity of in the reasoning. He knowingly leaves himself wide open and seems to take joy in it.
