    Steve, 2 things: This annoys people because A) Once again you've gone against your vow to read more and post less by posting a shitload of stuff (and then more posts complaining that no one is interested in your whale of a post). If any of us were interested in learning about the illustrious postseason history of the Yankees we would find a website, read a book or listen to one of the many MFY fans we live and work among who like to talk about the Yankees postseason success ad nauseum.

    I think we should create an All-Steve sub-forum for stuff like this.

    ]"Two-thirds of the earth is covered by water. The other third is covered by Garry Maddox." Now I finally understand why Ralph always referred to Grex Maddux as Gary.

The Pittsburgh Pirates won the 1909 World Series after moving into Forbes Field midseason. The 1912 Boston Red Sox won the World Series after a full first-season in Fenway Park. Oh, and I hate the Cardinals.

    The Lee Mazilli entry needs an image of Mazilli Bread Rolls as well as the suit ad with Torre.

    Molina looks very girlish in this picture.

    Don't forget a nice bowl of Pedro Pistachios as an appetizer.

    I'm not a big wave fan these days, and do not participate, but back in the rowdy Shea of the 80's I remember the Wave being well-coordinated with Mets rallys. These days the Wave seems to be indifferent to action on the field. And that sucks.

    Awesome Soupy. And Yancy yours is just as I imagined: You guys don't know how much you just made my day!!!

    I need to get myself photoshop. It kills me to be an artiste with a vision and not be able to see it carried out.

    It's Sammy Sosa he's obsessed with.

    Someone please photoshop Mazilli's face onto this image: Then we'll have Mazilli's Bread Rolls!

I don't buy that St. Louis is the underdog. A team that wins 2 of the last 3 pennants, a team that plays in 3 consecutive NLCS's, a team that plays in 5 of the last 7 NLCS's, a team that has been in the playoffs 6 of the last 7 seasons is no underdog. Especially when they're playing a young team that hasn't had a winning season since before the Republicans took control of Congress. The 83 regular season wins mean nothing. No one called the Yankees underdogs when they won 87 games in 2000.

    The wife asks: "Why is Ivan Rodriguez called 'Pudge'?" I looked on Wikipedia and it said that it was a comparison to Carlton Fisk. The entry for Carlton Fisk says that "Pudge" is a common nickname for catchers, but it still doesn't explain why? Any knowledge on this from our esteemed baseball experts? PS - I f-in' hate the Cardinals!!!!

    McCarver was sent down to the Mets clubhouse late in the game. I think he was working with Keith Jackson.

    Yancy Street Gang wrote: I didn't realize that Billy Martin had latex ears. Has anyone read the book, by the way? Is it any good? The book is excellent. Covers much more than baseball including the Koch/Cuomo mayoral race, the Son of Sam murders, punk rock v. disco, the SoHo art scene, and a chilling middle section about the NYC blackout and looting in Bushwick. 1977 was an eventful year in New York.

    I thought they fought in defense of ham.

    Maybe one of us could post a fond rememberance about Tom Burgess and his love of egg salad.

    I thought you'd found out how Suppan suddenly got to be so good for the postseason.

    Last year in Venice I saw two different people in Mets gear.
