    Getting rid of Josh would be stupid. He and Howie work flawlessly together, and actually sound like they enjoy each others' company. But I'm sure they can find a way to screw it up, because we're not allowed to have nice things.

    He was aallright. But guys like him aare aa dime aa dozen.

    I wonder if my 'abs like iron' will set them off.

    They'd really been working toward getting under the cap for one year to re-set all the penalties. But when push came to shove, outbidding everyone else for the best new toy won out.

    Saw my first WOR commercial as the new home of Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity and oh yeah, the Mets. Threw up in my mouth a little.

    Eh, no downside to picking up Lannan. If Omar Quetzalcoatl spends any time in the majors, though, it's [u:n4wptwi4]all[/u:n4wptwi4] downside.

    They always reach year 7 of deals like this and people will say, "What were they thinking?"

    I'm guessing Dusty and Bochy got tossed as much if not more than Joe anyway, so it probably wouldn't help them.

    Good old Val. He hit his (Met) dinger, and he hung 'em up.

    Well, I'd be pissed if Ronny Paulino pinch-hit for me, too.

    Wow. Contemplating airline schedules from August 1972. This is the very definition of 'deep in the weeds'. Maybe Yogi got drunk and drove all night.

    Hal Steinbrenner, come on down, you just won 25 million dollars.

    Maybe the Mets would have been more successful in the early '60's, Rusty would have landed a recurring guest gig on Hogan's Heroes, and this would be known as the Bob Crane Pool Forum. Or, well, not.

    Bernie Madoff's certainly seen his days of free agency come to an end.

    When I think of the problems facing this club, back-up catcher is about 47th. So this is a move of no concern and little import. And yes, Buck was worthless after April, except for Jordany-crushing.

    It's good to be [crossout]the King[/crossout] David Wright.

We were driving over the Whitestone when Carter's homer landed in the bullpen. She now expects to go the distance I had front-row seats (a friend's dad's company tix) right at the edge of the foul screen for that one. Awesomeness.

    My worst game experience was Opening Day 2003. Brand-new Met Tom Gl@v!ne on the hill. In the last row of the upper deck, which was extra fun due to the low-30's temperature and 30-mph winds. To add to the excitement, Tommy pitched abysmally in an eventual 15-2 loss to the Cubs. Couldn't even drown my sorrows in beer it was so cold.

    That 95-degree day in July sometime in the late-90's when the lights were out in an upper-deck men's room, but the heat was on full blast. 'Surreal' doesn't really do the experience justice.

    I hear Ruben Tejada's coming out with one that smells like Naugahyde and Bench Pine.

    Damn, it's cold in San Bernadino this morning.

    Cool Toyota Corona.
