I hate Mets fans.[/quote:1ngpd7yc] JCL and I were bitching about this on Monday-- the fans this year seem to need to be prompted-- continually-- to "LGM" or make positive noise at key moments; without prompting, it's polite silence punctuated by the occasional shout or one-off clapper. Booing strikeouts by guys trying hard? It seems to come all too naturally to a lot of these yokels. (I'm hoping this isn't some kind of weird Shake-Shack-y byproduct. I do like those burgers.) holychicken May 15 2009 05:53 PM ="LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr":2nqg4iap]JCL and I were bitching about this on Monday-- the fans this year seem to need to be prompted-- continually-- to "LGM" or make positive noise at key moments; [/quote:2nqg4iap] The problem is that if you start one of these cheers at a key time, you get cut off by the speaker system. Who are the fans going to follow, big brother over the loud speaker or the drunk crazy guy in the seat next to them? Willets Point May 15 2009 06:13 PM The speakers at Citi Field are LOUD. Elster88 May 15 2009 11:03 PM 5/15 at the Giants. A two out single in the top of the first to plate a run. A no out double with the bases loaded down 3 to tie the game. A ninth inning single with no outs and one on. That kid is clutch. Edit: Wright 27 for his last 65. Coincidentally, the Mets are 12-5 over that span. Edit: Keith has his back. Noticed it in the postgame today and the GF reported it happened during one game when I was at work. God bless her for keeping me informed, I should get her something nice this week.

Swan Swan H May 16 2009 09:13 AM An image search for 'John Stearns' returns rather slim pickins. I was looking for a shot that showed Dave Parker's jaw in the act of breakage, but no such luck. Edgy DC May 19 2009 09:10 PM ="Frayed Knot":2pgt6538]The problems in the early going for Wright were: - power was down - strike-outs were up - his hitting w/RiSP was bad #1 is possibly due to the new stadium and/or small sample size #2 was slightly disturbing if only because it was so out of whack to the consistency he had displayed in his career. His ~110 Ks/yr were suddenly on a pace for 200+ #3 is usually a self-correcting fluke that will trend towards normal with a larger sample size although it does tend to be the one that gets radio call-in types (on both sides of the phone line) apoplectic the quickest[/quote:2pgt6538] Now hitting .363, .375 with runners in scoring position. metirish May 19 2009 09:18 PM My pecker is a stirring for Wright again. Swan Swan H May 19 2009 09:27 PM Wright is hotter than Scarlett Johansson shaving her legs in the kitchen sink. (Go ahead, search for it.) OK, maybe not. But he's pretty hot right now. Edgy DC May 19 2009 09:41 PM ="metirish"]My pecker is a stirring for Wright again. I'm proud of you. Between this and your open-ness about your movie selection of last night and it seems you're really starting to accept yourself. And that's fine. We're Mets fans. We're all a little gay. ="Swan Swan H"]Wright is hotter than Scarlett Johansson shaving her legs in the kitchen sink. See? Swan Swan H May 19 2009 09:43 PM Now Wright shaving his legs in the kitchen sink...I'm not sure we, as a group, could handle that.
