Arguments about the a player's ZFACTORGRADEOUTPUT after 39 years of age will be pitted against heartfelt anecdotes of Duda's post-season heroics. "A player with that many championship rings can play on my team any day. He should be a Met as long as he wants." "Hey, Tom Seaver was a pretty good Met. Why don't we sign him for next year too?" "Asshole" "Loser" The one thing thing these CPF'ers will agree on is that Duda's success can all be traced back to that one day in September of 2012, when Duda, with the Mets hopelessly out of the race, gave Mets fans something to cheer about by smacking 4 HR's against the Nationals. Two of them off then-Cy-Young candidate Gio Gonzalez. "Yup. That was definitely the turning point in his career." "Oh, and remember, Colin McHugh started that game too. That was the first of his many complete game one-hitters." "Really? That's right, we had no idea how good he'd be then." "What a special day that was for us when you look back on it." That was the same day I pounded all those Brazilian exotic dancers, right? Suh-weet!

I blame Obamacare.

Happened to be watching this live when it happened. SO MUCH JOY. Hey, even my kid's superdouchy YLDB coach tells his players all the time not to slide into first.

As long as they wear hats of some kind, that's what matters. You can't go out there without a hat. You'll look stupid.

Ugh. Topped off by technical issues between SNY and FIOS, I'm getting the Lo-Def feed of this mess.

Oh, Larry, you should've made that play, you old washed up hillbilly **********.

Saw the big HR by Wieters in the first. Fboy and I both cheered.

Derek Jeter makes yet another spectacular play so I say to my wife "that mans a player" her response is "I bet he is a player and I would play with him" my response "what and give up all this" she says " Yup I sure will" gotta love her honesty lol Vomit.

I have been dumbfounded at just how many outs Torres, and the Mets as a team, have run into on the basepaths this year. It's ridiculous is what it is.

Ridiculous call by the umpire. Mets taking it in the crudites.

I think I'd like to see them win one of the wild card spots and then lose the one game play-in. It'd give those rubes in the Bronx an entire winter to gripe about how they got screwed by the system. I'm curious to know what Mr. Met Puppet Guy thinks about this whole thing.

I approve of Mets victories.

Fuck your kids' mom, Ozzie!

I missed every pitch of this game, completely forgot that they were playing a matinee today. Ah well. I was swamped at work anyway.

Wow. That was fucking great.

Here we go. Strap yourselves in people.

Charlie Steiner has to spend one more season changing Vin and applying lots of talcum. Good deal, all the way around.

Yeah, you gave him a nine inning prostate exam, and I'm the weirdo. WHATEVS.

Darn.

Swan Swan H wrote: Flushing, NY (AP) - Continuing a recently disturbing trend, another rally was mercilessly killed by Mets players this evening. According to witnesses, the Mets had runners on first and third with none out when the next two batters grounded into a fielder's choice and a double play. "I've see this sort of thing before," said F. Mann, a visitor from upstate NY. "Between the junkyards across the street and this mess, property values around here are goin' straight in the crapper, if you catch my drift." Authorities have promised action before, yet the senseless killing continues. I appreciate that even the fictionalized version of me managed to work an anal sex joke into the mix. Well played, Mr. Mann!
