  3. Maybe Shawn Estes can help with that Henley assignment.

  7. I'll take Tejada over Castillo. Luis has no 2011 Mets future as where Tejada could for many years. It also tells you I've given up on 2010.
  8. Heyman is going down on Omar.
  9. Abolish the union.

  11. What disturbs James is "Mongo fans who have bought into the koolaid." Those words are usually applied to the MFY's. Does this blogger get paid for writing this stuff?

    Mays 1973

    What I remember most is the joy in Joan Payson's face in seeing Willie and how dang cold it was in those night games at Shea. Willie clocks in at a final years salary of $165,000. Hmmm Hmmm Hmmm
  13. GO! I'm dumping the one game at a time approach, sorry Greg, but 28-12 from here on might get the Mets in the postseason.
  14. Interesting. Spongetech was one of the more interesting garden variety cases of securities fraud. Of interest would be who acted as agent at the brokerage holding the Mets (or individuals) account(s) to execute the trades.

    Mays 1973

    In my opinion the magnitude of Willie's misplays in the 73 WS were exagerrated. He lost a ball in the sun. However the video image that has endured makes it appear as if heat is rising from grass and Willie is cowering in fear of being hit. The replay is shown in slow motion for effect and has the feel of a "manufactured" moment, to Mays' detriment. The World Series film shows Mays begging for a call at home and Curt Gowdy saying something close to "even the umpires can't save Willie from old man time this year." Part of me believes if the Mets didn't "blow" that series, and they did, these negative images of Mays' last playing days may not have formed. How can a player be accused of hanging around too long? Aren't most doing the thing they love most and getting paid for it. All the while knowing when you walk away it is forever.
  16. The Feds don't lose.
  17. I do not Misch Frankie Rodriguez. LETS!
