  5. Too bad Kurt Russell did'nt take out the "Duke of NY" before he got here.

The Series 1 team set, for what it's worth, is: 15 David Wright 56 Johan Santana 66 R.A. Dickey 119 Jason Bay 129 Lucas Duda 147 Jon Niese 156 Josh Thole 157 Mets team card (features Reyes/Pagan in flight) 203 Dillon Gee 207 Angel Pagan 290 Ike Davis I'll trade for anything you have no need for, especially sparklies. We all want sparklies lol..10 bucks a pop now

  10. batmagadanleadoff wrote: The Mets don't have to resort to the drastic remedy of using an effective K-Rod as a mop-up man in order to scuttle the vesting option. That's an extreme and unrealistic scenario. The other question you raise though, is whether a player with a performance based bonus clause suddenly inherits the right to question --in a courtroom-- how his team used him. You can question anything in a courtroom.
  11. LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr wrote: Vest or no, it actually behooves teams-- if not players and agents-- to use their best guys in high-leverage spots, rather than managing "to the save." That's a defense right there-- using him in high-leverage spots in the eighth makes more actual baseball sense. If he doesn't like it, he can go kick his sister-in-law. Krod will not be working in the 8th inning for the Mets often if at all. If he does on a consistent basis and doesn't vest I'm confident the union can has a strong case on Arod's behalf.

  13. Most Professional Sports leagues and such have logos representing their sport. The NBA logo has a silhouette of a player in its' logo. It is a real player. Who is he?
  14. Eric Chavez and Ronnie Bellaird report to Tampa.
  15. 30 and all by July 31, 2011
  16. I'll guess none are on the 40 man roster. 3 pitchers?

Red flags anyone? Fortune were made by many during these crises. You can play them going up or down... Having said that, Madoff and Freddie are crooks.
  18. I wish Sandy had gone after Justin Duchscherer
  19. The Wilpons are reminding me of the money lender Martin Short played in "Damages" this season.
  20. Edgy DC wrote: To heck with the court of public opinion. Steinbrenner was an out-of-control autocrat who treated the rules and the law as an inconvenience and he has virgins dancing on his grave. Let's stick to the court of business law. Maybe the attendance at Mets games next season may help us see how the public feels about this? Like 1978?
  21. Will the trustee take Ollie, Castillo, Bay, Beltran and Krod in return?
  22. smg58 wrote: bmfc1 wrote: "Known or should have known" is going to be tough to prove. That's terrible language. If the former is true, there's no need to include the latter. By including the latter, it implies that they can't prove that the Wilpons knew. And "should have known" means what, exactly? A number of investment firms were suspicious about Madoff but didn't act on their suspicions. The Wilpons, as bmfc pointed out, are real-estate specialists. Some of those "suspicious" firms are being sued. Publicly, Fred is finished in the court of public opinion.. It's gonna be one empty stadium this season and what FA in his right mind would sign with the Mets if this suit is still out there a year from? Its over..And the prick even knocked down Shea
  23. Every Wilpon, Katz, their relatives and all Wilpon business are finished. Start with page 137. Good God, what a fuckin greedy prick Wilpon is. Thanks to JCL for this...
  24. 240 Wins, a .635 Winning Percentage, all but one season in double digit wins. Multiple needles in the ass.
