  1. The final day, 2008. Between the Marlins prolonged celebrating, and the Mets ineptness in butting up cardboard figures, this was easily the worst day I spent at Shea. But it still beat the best day I spent in Citi.
  2. Player of the year voting with only whole numbers, not a freaking decimal point to be found...
  3. Willie Montanez really knew how to rock those wristbands...
  4. Maybe I should have added this (I thought the large type and exclamation points would have helped):

Still, there's no doubt in my mind that but for his injury, Harvey was on his way to releasing a leaked sex web video with his Russian model girlfriend. I despised Dykstra. It seemed like he had a stool in his mouth whenever he was on the field - just disgusting. Even though it was a bad trade, I was not sad to see Dykstra and McDowell go.
  7. A couple of random thoughts here: He's an egotistical jerk, but I wish Matt Harvey would act a little more like Jeter when out in public. (I guess they're both egotistical jerks, but in different ways...) This is just a great shot. (it would be even greater if it was of Mariano and not Cano, but a great shot none the less) I loved that shot, too. But why do you say it's great? Let's hear a pro's opinion. The rule of thirds. If you divide the picture into thirds (basically drawing a tic tac toe board over it) you see that Cano fits nicely in the right third of the frame. The bank of lights curving toward him from the upper left corner leads your eye perfectly to him. Add in the Cobalt blue sky of the magic hour, and it's a great shot. I didn't even get into the angle of the shot...

  9. Tom Seaver Mike Schmidt Steve Carlton Pete Rose Joe Morgan Tony Perez Even Doug Harvey behind the plate. A lot of big names in that game...

And depending on ones built like Dom Deluise to do it again is even tougher. Really Frayed ... you couldn't come up with an example never than the 1970s? Actually, I could not. Well, you could have gone with Mickey Lolich...
  11. I tried holding my nose. I still didn't like the small of this.
  12. John Cougar Lunchbucket wrote: I nuetrally like it. Obviously Grandy Man is better than no Grandy Man, and is much prefereable to some other considerations but he could easily be a bomb. This. I fear the second coming of Jason Bay...

  14. This seems so much longer than 6 years...
  15. Benjamin Grimm wrote: I don't understand the desire to get as many people as possible into the Hall. If I was a voter, I doubt I'd ever vote for more than three or four players in a given year. I'd never vote for ten. I seem to be in the minority here, but I want the Hall of Fame to be very exclusive, even though it's already too late for that. This. So Much this. Piazza Maddux Biggio Raines Bonds, Clemens, and Martinez can buy tickets. The rest can wait
  16. metsguyinmichigan wrote: OK, the Yankees version is gloriously awful. Autographed ornaments that make we question the literacy of most of the team aside, you gotta love the prominent role assigned to ARod, whom they are working so hard to jettison! The Yankees can't do anything without saying, "Bow to our greatness", can they? In that last scene, the kids looked like they were in prison. Appropriate imagery...

  18. **sigh** I hate winter... This is much ado about nothing, but someone should put a few baseballs in McCann's ear to remind him that he isn't baseball's policeman. Oh, and for the douche factor, anytime a player puts on a Braves uniform, said player's douchiness is multiplied by a factor of 10...
  19. I saw this Thursday night - it was a fun ride, with some obvious plot holes that are easily overlooked. It was easily better than the first Thor movie. 4 out of 5
  20. Did you tweak the sharpness on any of these? These just pop.

Sports Extra was the show to watch every Sunday night. As has been already said, he was classy, reasoned, patient, and a true gentleman. The sports world was a better place because of him, and is now a lot poorer without him in it.
  22. LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr wrote: Good gravy. Is it overly speculative to guess that the people who lovedlovedLOVED Titanic were the same sort of people (14-year-olds and emotional 14-year-olds?) who tended toward the... um... mallrat-Manichean with their cultural opinions? Nope - It seems like those who loved Titanic also loved Twilight. Going by my admittedly small sample size, both of my daughters hated Titanic, and also hated Twilight. Then again, they prefer shows like Supernatural, and Vikings...
  23. A great short shown at NYCC: [youtube:thgryxj7]ebXB0lBoaQ0[/youtube:thgryxj7]
  24. Sox in 6. Would love it if Victorino was traded to St. Louis for Beltran. It would make the rooting even easier...
