He pretty much sucked.

The key is to suck down a shit ton of alcohol when you're watching. Then, not only do you not mind the gaps in between pitches, but entire at bats just cruise on by and you won't feel a thing. Of course it makes it harder to figure out how someone got on base, or who's playing.

I love Florida. It's America's cock.

Fuck. This article was the first thing that made me really believe in my heart that Jose Reyes would not be back in 2012.

Now, let's put karma aside. Just for a second, hypothetically speaking. What's the most interesting, unique and/or inventive way you can think of to ensure that Wayne Hagin isn't on the air (as well as satellite radio, where he haunts me 300 miles from Citi Field) butchering routine calls and applying his own unique brand of hacky shittasticness to Mets announcing in 2012? My first idea was to launch him into space like the Russian dog Laika, the first living being from Earth to travel in space. For those of you who didn't know, Russian scientists had no way to bring Laika back safely, yet launch her into space on Sputnik 2 ("Electric Boogaloo") they did in November of 1957. She died within days, or perhaps even hours, and then orbited the Earth, a sad Russian canine corpse, until the conclusion of her flight five months later. I like the idea of Wayne, orbiting the Earth, recollecting interesting facts about Colorado Rockies players and sharing them with no one in particular, until his air cuts off and then, blessed space silence. What do you have in mind?

Let Howie do all the PBP and bring in some ex-jock to do a little bit of color here and there. I like this idea. Seriously. Isn't there an '86 Met not already involved in some Met-related broadcasting duty? Is Danny Heep really that busy?

I want Wayne Hagin to get the same treatment that Laika got.

I'll sell you a [crossout:18t4e91z]fake[/crossout:18t4e91z] Neil Allen signature on a cocktail napkin for $14.

This whole place is like some inbred Kentucky family that hasn't strayed outside of its own gene pool for 150 years. Like the Peacock family from that X-Files classic episode "Home," if you will. I'm fine with that. "Normies" give me the heebie jeebies anyway.

I read about this place in a G-FAFIF column as well. And it was during a time when I needed to be able to commiserate with other Mets fans who were depressed. Joined: 16 Oct 2007 07:54 am And then the cock jokes started.

Seriously, that's a lot of White Castles. Good for him, I hope it blows up Darren Dreifort style in their stupid faces.

I liked the first one but the second was a steaming coil. We received MI:3 as a gift maybe two years ago and it's still in the plastic wrap.

Still mad that Flash Gordon didn't spawn four or five sequels with Brian Blessed, Timothy Dalton, the return of Max Von Sydow and album after album of kickass Queen songs. Perhaps my favorite childhood superhero movie, with all apologies to General Zod and Co.

Isn't this particular napkin full of self induced semen yet?

There's a 100% chance that the Mets give Bay a chance to play all season in 2012 with short porches all over the place. They're going to Fenway up this motherfucker best they can for him, and Wright, and try and sell some tickets.

Seriously. Rev this shit up, I got all kinds of clever "Lee Mazzilli has semen in his hair" jokes to expunge.

Rochester, Buffalo, Batavia, Syracuse, Allentown, and Pawtucket. Happy travels, Costanza. Ecch. What's worse is how many local YLDBs will come out to support their adopted "home team" who wouldn't normally attend a Syracuse Chiefs game otherwise. Fuck that noise.

Manny, like Tattaglia, is a pimp. But man, that's a sweet ride. Makes me wish I was an obese Polynesian/Hispanic/generic brown colored man of some sort.

Move em all in, I've been to Citi Field four times and I've yet to see the apple pop up aside from pre-game.
