  8. Traschel/Oliver. Yes, the dual starter.
  9. Thank. The. Lord. A picture of Wagner should be in the dictionary by the word "agita."

  11. The Mets have too many runs for Wagner.

  13. Rottblatt: ]Buck: "Bad walk for John Maine and the Mets--but not for the Cardinals." Douchebag metirish: ]McCarver....." Bad walk for Maine and the Mets but not for the Cardinals" ....no fucking shit Tim... So was it Buck or McCarver?
  14. Do we plunk Belliard here like he deserves? Babe Molina's on deck.
  15. Off-season assignment for Maine: Intensive bunting lessons.

  17. If they're going to put Pujols on base, they should just drill him.
  18. I'm personally feeling TH is unecessary going forward. The Yankees, Braves, Phillies (and hopefully the Cardinals) are all teams the Mets performed better than. I no longer have the sense of looking up and taking joy in our rivals loss now that the Mets are better than them.
  19. Michigan, I said something similar in another thread, but you put it more eloquently. Miracles and Magic are the keystones of the Amazin' Mets.
  20. Sophocles would say that Mr. LaRussa has hubris.
  21. Yeah, I do the same thing with college hockey, but it's not the same.
  22. You know the odd thing is I'm not bothered so much about losing. That's sad but not crushing. The main thing is I don't want the season to end. I grow so accustomed to having the Mets play almost every day and having the part of the ebb and flow of my life. The offseason sucks and I want to hold it off as long as possible.
  23. Yancy Street Gang wrote: Did Glavine run over your cat or something? Nah, I just take umbrage with the contstant adulation of Glavine as our "ace," "clutch," and "a big game pitcher." These things may have been true in the distant past but not during 5 Inning Tommy's time as a Met. His heart is obviously still with the Braves and he's been mailing it in for three years as he cashes his paychecks. Thus I don't wan't the Mets to be reliant on Glavine when the season's on the line. An "ace" would not automatically cough up an early lead when his team is playing on the road. A "clutch pitcher" would be able to pitch more than 5 innings. A "big game pitcher" would be able to pitch himself out of a jam. Willie went right to the pen instead of giving Glavine a chance to pitch out of a jam because he knew that Glavine couldn't do it and was on the verge of a meltdown. Runs are scarce and precious in the postseason because the pitching steps up. Weaver - whom our own usually wise Frayed Knot declared suxx - stepped up last night. Glavine, did not.
