  1. It's like The 7 Line for stupid people.

  3. Ooh, I'll play. THE 87 "BEST PICTURE" OSCAR WINNERS TO DATE THE ONES I'VE SEEN(1927-2013): 2010 - "The King's Speech" 2008 - "Slumdog Millionaire" 2003 - "The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King" 2002 - "Chicago" 2000 - "Gladiator" 1999 - "American Beauty" 1998 - "Shakespeare in Love" 1997 - "Titanic" 1995 - "Braveheart" 1994 - "Forrest Gump" 1993 - "Schindler�s List" 1990 - "Dances With Wolves" 1988 - "Rain Man" 1986 - "Platoon" 1984 - "Amadeus" 1976 - "Rocky" 1974 - "The Godfather Part II" 1972 - "The Godfather" 1943 - "Casablanca" How many have you seen? 19/87 List up to 10 films on the list that, if you got home tonight and it was on, you'd happily watch it again from beginning to end: Godfather Godfather II Lord of the Rings
  4. Former Seawolf Nick Tropeano expected to pitch for Houston today.
  5. Vic Sage wrote: Dave Proctor! I remember Dave Proctor specifically because he appeared in the 1989 Bowman set. Dude had a 4.21 ERA and 45 walks in 68 innings in low-A in 1988, so that was a smart call by Topps.
  6. I actually call my vibrator "Greg" too! Go figure.

  8. John Cougar Lunchbucket wrote: I felt stupid and manipulated but didn't want to see David Wright lose another meaningless popularity contest. I probably did 8 or 10 retweets and 2 originals overall. Me too. I want this fucking team to win SOMETHING, even if it's just a stupid internet contest. Besides, who the fuck is Eric Sogard? And one of my original witticisms got RTed 27 times, so that was neat.
  9. I know you want money, MLB, but make the fucking spring training game audio free. Dbags.
  10. Was all set to come down with a mysterious illness but the MFY-fan boss called a 1:00 lunch meeting. Urg.
  11. When we've got a fifteen game-lead in mid-July, all of a sudden every Saturday is going to be a FOX METS SATURDAY.

  13. Mazz was good for very bad teams and then relatively unimportant on very good teams. Buddy was here a long time, but was awful offensively. And Jesse O was good, but had a lot of help and probably didn't finish higher than 10th or so in any of his seasons. McReynolds had a 122 OPS+ for five seasons, four of them on very good teams. It makes sense.
  14. FB friend: Only in LA. [Last night after softball] Teammate: Hey are we going to be able to field a team next week? A lot of people aren't going to be coming. Me: Why? What's going on Sunday? [Teammate looks at me like I have three heads] Teammate: the Oscars?! [My face says 'Are you effing serious?' Fade to black]
  15. I'm assuming Sandy's including Spring Training in that total, so that's reasonable.

Done.
  17. Nick Tropeano invited to major-league camp this spring. Expected to start in AAA, but most things I'm reading say he'll probably wind up in Houston at some point this season.
  18. This article is stupid. "Ha ha ha, the Mets can't sell tickets." Eff you, jagoff. You're why newspapers are dead.

  20. Clark started the season 5-1, 3.48 in six starts for me in 1996, so I was definitely selling high. But he did have a 6.1 WAR for them this season, and signed a 6 yr/$33 M extension in August. (Pedro extended with us for 4/$17.5, though.) I played the whole game. I was up 6-1 after seven and got the bullpen going just in case, but he just kept striking guys out, so I rode him the whole way. He struck out the side in the eighth and the ninth. He also lost Game 1, 3-2, despite pitching a complete game and striking out 14. Crazy.
  21. That's why this is the 'adventures in fake baseball' thread, Edge. 1997. We needed an ace at the beginning of 1996, so I made a blockbuster: Reggie Jefferson (who I'd signed that offseason but wasn't playing -- but he's earned 5.5 WAR in the last two seasons for Montreal), Mark Clark (28-21, 3.40 ERA the last two seasons), Roberto Hernandez (who saved 14 games for the Expos in '96), and Alex Ochoa (who's settled into a nice fourth OF role for them) for Pedro and Cliff Floyd (who hit .212 last year, but became my starting LF in midseason '97 and finished with a .969 OPS in 340 AB).
  22. Winner-take-all LDS game 5? Pedro says "not today, Cardinals."
  23. The funny thing about that game is that it's EXACTLY what I said I wanted to happen that morning. https://twitter.com/cdorso/status/379239092686716928
