  1. Vets' Committee has voted in MFYs owner Jacob Ruppert, umpire Hank O'Day, and 19th-century barehanded catcher Deacon White.
  2. I fully expect to see a 5 on the outfield wall one day.
  3. Nymr83 wrote: finally, good news from Metsland This.
  4. Schilling had some INSANE BB/9 numbers, especially while he was tag-teaming with Randy Johnson in Arizona.
  5. I'll have to look. It's not like I bookmarked them.
  6. For some that is clearly the case. But I've read enough "ballot explanations" where the voter writes "I never vote more than two guys because..." to know that this can have an effect.
  7. My ballot: Bagwell Biggio Bonds Clemens Martinez McGwire Piazza Raines Schilling Walker I would also put in: Morris Murphy Palmeiro Smith Sosa Trammell I've been warning about the 2013 glut for something like four or five years now. It's really sad that we're going to have people waiting twenty years now most likely to get in via the Veteran's Committee when it should have taken six or seven, because some baseball writers give themselves bullshit cutoffs for their number of picks when they should be using all ten available. Really sad.
  8. Here's the concept art for Guardians of the Galaxy that Marvel released at Comic-Con:
  9. At Comic-Con, Marvel gave an update on their slate of upcoming films: Iron Man 3 - May 3, 2013. Featuring Ben Kingsley as The Mandarin. Thor: The Dark World - November 8, 2013. Captain America: The Winter Soldier - April 4, 2014. Guardians of the Galaxy - August 1, 2014. Ant-Man - release date yet to be determined.
  10. Surprised Austin and Orlando aren't on here. Irrespective of realignment, I'm inclined to move the A's to Sacramento (they have their AAA club there already) and expand to Austin and either Portland or Orlando.
  11. I read there was concern that Buster Posey wouldn't be able to handle the knuckler. Stinks.
  12. Verdict imminent.
  13. I'm very pissed I actually slept through it. Then I woke up, saw a text from my dad, saw Howie's call and cried like a baby. Outside of a Mets championship in my lifetime, this is what I most wanted to see. And frankly I'm stunned that it happened at all. I felt like we were doomed to never see this day. I'm so happy the curse has been broken.
  14. A representative of the American Mustache Institute.
  15. Seriously, I thought Mr. 36.00 ERA had a stadium named after him before I clicked in here. I don't think the UMDB has his picture. There you go.
  16. Dickey is up there as one of my all-time favorite Met personalities. That may be the coolest at-bat music in all of baseball.
  17. Go see Men in Black 3. Will Smith's character goes back in time to 1969. I won't say any more.
  18. Never thought I'd ever see this pulled off: http://www.buzzfeed.com/mikemehalick/eric-hosmer-couldnt-do-this-again-if-he-tried
  19. So it seems Chuck Knoblauch is picking up girls on the G train... http://youtastelikenachos.tumblr.com/post/23487381466/this-is-a-story-about-a-former-new-york-yankee Chuck Knoblauch wrote: �Are you sisters? Want to come uptown with me? I�ll just have to change first.�
  20. a home run short of the cycle at the moment.
  21. That Valley Fever must be a doozy.
  22. Rauch should be closing. You do NOT give off defeated body language on the mound and you do NOT turn your back on your manager.
  23. Get him out of town. I've seen enough.
  24. Piazza vs. Wright is debatable at this point, I personally give Piazza the edge at this moment on the basis of a pennant and 9/21/01.
  25. Whereas he is a man with a large baseball for a head. Classic legislative language.
