  1. Well slap my ass, the Mets went out and got a real live ballplayer. I approve, heartily.
  2. Played in three money leagues this year, all had entry fees of between $30 and $50. One of them (a 10 team league) I stunk, finished 5-8 and missed the playoffs. Too many dumb draft choices. The second one (a 12 team league) I finished 11-3, won a $96 prize for being the high scorer in weeks 1-16, and can win another $48 for the 3rd place prize if Adrian Peterson scores less than 25 pts tonight. The third one (a 14 team keeper league) I dominated -- finished 10-4 and plowed through the playoffs winning the finals 166-106 going into tonight. In this league, also, the guy just has A.P. left but I don't think he's scoring 60 tonight. First prize in this one is $210. Nice little haul for the Fman this year.

    Jeff Kent is a douche.
  5. John Cougar Lunchbucket wrote: Poll results are a travesty. Seriously. Fuck Ferris right in his Cubs-loving ass.
  6. ESPN now reporting this deal also, 1.25 mil in guaranteed money and confirming Minaya's desire to put him in the pen. Which, to me, is stupid. He went 18-7 his last full season as a starter... I know he came up as a swingman in Anaheim, but I'd think that the Mets could use him in the rotation more than as a set up guy.
  7. Cazale was a tremendous actor. I love the boathouse scene in Godfather II, specifically.
  8. Dances with Smurfs
  9. I always assumed Dylan wrote "Idiot Wind" as a tribute to Mike Francesa.
  10. Rotoworld (forwarding news from a Latin news source) reporting the Mets inked former Angels hurler Kelvim Escobar to a minor league deal. Didn't make it onto the field due to injuries in 2008 and 2009 but had a 3.40 ERA in 30 appearances in 2007. I like it.
  11. I love to believe that Javy the MFY redux will go about as well as the first version (4.91 ERA).
  12. I am excited for 2010, now, for the plethora of anatomical jokes about this guy. Big Dickey fan here. He's got a cousin in AA ball, I.M. Penisy, that's supposed to be pretty good too.

    Same panel as last time, Edgy.
  15. I wish Klapisch would throw himself into a well, Baby Jessica style. Sans the rescue effort.
  16. I like the delay, actually. The alternative is throwing more money and years at both of these guys than they deserve (see Perez, Oliver). I wonder who blinks first, Omar or Bay/Molina.
  17. Beltran. Wainwright.

  19. Sheesh, Scotty Pods' wife is HAWT. The guy's known for his speed, and you can't blame him -- it'd only take me 5-7 seconds to "round the bases" on her also.
  20. http://www.sporcle.com/games/Knapster/MLBTeamMVP Name the last person (if anyone) to have won the MVP award for each team. I got 26 of 30 -- missed the ChiSox, Oakland, Toronto and Cleveland. Stupid DH league.
  21. Just watched this today. I liked it. Nothing remarkable, but good popcorn chewing entertainment. But Leonard Nimoy needs some new dentures. I kept waiting for his teeth to come flying out and start chattering on the ground a la "Beetlejuice."
  22. So the aftershocks keep coming for Mets fans. A month or so after living through their nightmare World Series, Black Monday forces them to confront the reality that they are almost surely playing only for a wild-card berth in 2010, as Halladay all but assures the Phillies a fourth straight NL East title. You want to crown em, you crown em! THEY ARE WHO WE THOUGHT THEY WERE! What utter ridiculous bullshit this line is. They are assured exactly what everyone else is before the season starts. Fucking hacks.
