  1. Wow, that looked more like a mugging than a celebration.
  2. Is he really standing there in front of a collage of pictures of....himself in action? You get the feeling if you play him too much he'll suck and if you play him too little he'll suck. If he ever catches fire and starts posting real numbers, you'll need Vaseline to get his head through the clubhouse door. 'Manny being Manny' only worked because he produced big-time. If you pull that crap without having the stats to back you up, you're just a jerk. It's like the Bull Durham line about fungus on your shower sandals: Crash Davis: Your shower shoes have fungus on them. You'll never make it to the bigs with fungus on your shower shoes. Think classy, you'll be classy. If you win 20 in the show, you can let the fungus grow back and the press'll think you're colorful. Until you win 20 in the show, however, it means you're a slob.
  3. A painful inning being forced to listen to a fighter shill for legalizing UFC in New York on the network that has the rights to, and heavily promotes, UFC fighting. That was highly annoying. Not as annoying as watching Hefner pitching batting practice, though.
  4. I'm in awe of everybody's skillz.
  5. With apologies to Percy Bysshe Shelley: I met a traveller from an antique land Who said: Two vast and trunkless legs of stone Stand in the desert. Near them, on the sand, Half sunk, a shattered visage lies, whose frown, And wrinkled lip, and sneer of cold command, Tell that its sculptor well those passions read Which yet survive, stamped on these lifeless things, The hand that mocked them and the heart that fed: And on the pedestal these words appear: "My name is Jeffrey Wilpon, king of kings: Look on my works, ye Mighty, and despair!" Nothing beside remains. Round the decay Of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare The lone and level sands stretch far away.
  6. They need to postpone these games until after Wheeler is called up, dammit.
  7. Two pages and still no mention of lutefisk?
  8. Edgy MD wrote: Deliberately provocative offday bating article, written to look like something is on the burner that isn't, which they don't fess up to until the bottom. This. Sounds like a sportswriter circle-jerk in the airport lounge after a couple of beers.
  9. Rather than using large ships to transport their cars to America, Fiat prefers to drive them across the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean.
  10. Local pedophile lures neighborhood children into his van with promises of coffee and office supplies.
  11. Keith sniffing incessantly in the booth. Dreaming of those old cocaine days?
  12. John Cougar Lunchbucket wrote: Buckaroo better make them pay for this.
  13. Keith has a BDSM moment- "Go to the whip!"
  14. Interference doesn't have to be intentional. But Pierre could easily have avoided him. Breaking news: this bullpen sucks.
  15. Hey, other states- New York is so awesome WE'RE STEALING YER JAHBS!!!!
  16. Frayed Knot wrote: So at what point do we start using the phrase; 'too good for the rest of the league' ? Just asking. When they do this to the Nats and Braves on a regular basis.
  17. The Bonilla contract is like that bad burrito you had last night. It wasn't good then, and it's still causing intestinal distress today. Problem is you have to wait 22 years to flush the toilet.
  18. The Rotunda will always irritate me. It told me, "I may own the Mets, but I've never really stopped being a Dodger fan". It's like Bloomberg at The Mausoleum pretending he's a Yankee fan while secretly delighting in the fact his Red Sox are kicking ass.
  19. Q. What is Buckwheat saying 'Gale Sayers'?
  20. There's no point to bringing up Wheeler now. He's not going to be the crucial difference in a pennant-winning season or anything. Keep him down, let him dominate AAA and bring him up when the deadline for controlling him for an extra year passes. Not a difficult call.
  21. Dunno, if I'm the father of the bride I'm probably not too happy with a picture where he's both grabbing her ass and burying his face in her cleavage........
  22. The problem with the rear-view mirror is that objects are always larger than they appear.
  23. Absolutely. Webb made it work. And they went out of their way to acknowledge him on the air which was nice.
