The "42" thing was messing with my head early. We watched the entire pregame festivities upstairs, then put MiniWolf to bed. I then came downstairs and turned the game on. It was already 2-0 at that point, and Beltran was up in the bottom of the first. My immediate thought was "who the hell is #42 on the Mets?" I'm a moron.

That commercial would have been way funnier if Cap'n Intangibles had either dropped the keys, threw them over the dad's head, or both. Although it certainly was realistic that he made a major production over catching the keys and tossing them to the guy.

I like this Wright kid. Gonna be a good player.

Mike Pelfrey just loses all credibility as Gary outs him as a "Saved By The Bell" fan.

Maybe if Mr. Holmes had paid $20 million dollars to name the stadium Tommy Holmes Field, we wouldn't have had that problem.

Seriously, though. Who hasn't slept with Karl Ravech? -
I'd like to hear more about Mike Scott, that lying, cheating bastard, and how he's going to publicly apologize for giving me apoplexy in the late innings of a game in October 1986.

For love, we'll give it a shot.

Excellent! Interview granted. More news as it happens.

The video is great! It looked like it was all part of the performance.

Definitely a guy who's living off his reputation more than his production.

That's an impressive lineup, 1-7. I didn't know they were doing the LaRussa thing. Odd. The logic says that you get that AL-style "second leadoff hitter" the second time around. The reality says it just means they're pitching around your #7 guy instead of your #8 guy. I don't get it either... because if the guy's good enough to be a second leadoff hitter, then bat him #1 or #2, so you don't lose an AB every game. If Kendall's still that good -- and he's not -- then don't you want him to get 4-5 ABs a night instead of 3-4? Odd.

Let's not get too excited about what Joe Morgan has to say. I think I trust StevieJeets' analysis more.

Nick's moving along the organizational ladder, filling a middle relief role in Binghamton. Two one-inning stints so far... one good (one scoreless inning), one bad (one four-run inning), both against Trenton. I just sent an interview request to their PR folks; we'll see what happens.

None. None more gay.

This mystery spreadsheet is fancy as hell.

None More Black (split from IGT Game Seven)
seawolf17 replied to batmagadanleadoff's topic in New York Mets Talk
I think black has (had?) the "cool" factor for a while, which is why so many teams went that way, as opposed to going back to baby blues, for example. If flannel uniforms had a cool factor that would sell, they'd wear 'em. Teams have tried stupid things before (camouflage, the Mercury Mets), and sometimes they catch on, sometimes they don't. Black worked, so they stuck with it. If you're a kid, a black jersey might just be cooler than pinstripes, especially if you associate pinstripes with the team across the river. -

And then, of course, you get lucky sometimes with your baseball card photos: -

None More Black (split from IGT Game Seven)
seawolf17 replied to batmagadanleadoff's topic in New York Mets Talk
Splitted. I don't HATE the black. I have a black hat, mostly on days when I either can't find my blue one or when my two-year-old is wearing his black hat and demands that we wear the same one. (All black, not the black/blue brim combo.) I understand the vitriol against the black, though... I posted in the IGT about it the other day. I don't see it going away, though. -

We offered you a minor league deal, with access to the NBF only. I didn't see any other fora knocking on your door.
