Willets Point

Yankee fans are hypocrites.

I should just turn this off and go to bed shouldn't I?

You're very comfortable in your sexuality.

The Franco twins are confusing me.

These are the Mets I know and shake my head at.

Na-na-na-na, hey-hey-hey, gooooooood-bye! Wright (the Wrong Wright) leaves the game in the 2nd inning. Happiness.

I'd rather vote for Nomar. He's had a great comeback season.

These are the Mets I know and love.

Damn national broadcasts.

This is the going to the game thread. Does Vic intend to settle his ass into a stadium seat anytime soon? Howzhtat KC?

Not even close.

I should add that other Red Sox fans in the area were visibly disturbed by this family and I don't think they should reflect poorly on Red Sox fans in general. I think no one said anything because these people just seemed so crazy you wouldn't know what they'd do if provoked.

I thought about reporting them, but the Mets fans who were being hit by peanuts were just ignoring them so I figured it was their complaint to make not mine. I thought it was more obnoxious than harmful and mostly was put off by how irresponsible the parents were.

="Frayed Knot"]"Next time I have a ticket to a Mets game and Glavine's pitching I'm giving it away. " Yeah, he was the problem. I meant that whenever I see a Mets game that Glavine starts the Mets lose, so if I were not in attendance maybe they'd win. Kind of silly karma thing I don't believe in but funny to joke about. On the other hand, your co-ace only being able to pitch 5 innings while allowing 5 hits, 3 walks, 2 runs, NO strikeouts and making a throwing error is a problem.

Red Sox fans are boasting about the inferiority of the National League, but I recall they clobbered the Marlins in 2003 and Florida went on to win the World Series and Red Sox didn't even make it. My point of course is that in-season matchups aren't very predictive of what would happen in a post-season matchup. At least on a small scale.

This is only first 3-game losing streak of the season. I worry that it will get longer, but feel confident it won't get too bad.

My thoughts: - Never, never again put a Bon Jovi song in an IGT - Willets + Glavine = suck. Next time I have a ticket to a Mets game and Glavine's pitching I'm giving it away. - So I mentioned after last game that I'd rather sit behind a steel beam than the aisle full of ADD fans. So this game my seat was directly behind a steel beam. A kind Red Sox fan at the end of the row said she had an extra seat because her husband couldn't make it and let me sit there and thus I ended up with a GREAT seat behind home plate to the first base side. - It was Connecticut Night at Fenway Park. Appropos to my CT childhood. - Low point of the game: bratty teenage boy in front of me starts chanting "Mets Suck" and throwing peanuts at Mets fans. Just when I think his parents are going to intervene they start chanting and throwing peanuts too!!!!. This was the most classless family I've ever encountered. - Based on the number of replica jerseys/t-shirts the fan favorites for the Red Sox are Crisp, Papelbon and Ortiz and for the Mets, Wright (by a wide margin), Martinez, and Seaver. - I'm glad this series is over so now I can go back to actually feeling happy when Papi hits a sweet homerun. - Despite the Mets loss and Glavine crapping the bed in the 6th, it was a privilege to see two great pitchers of our generation duel it out in a well-played game. Two great defensive plays by the Sox, baserunning blunders by the Mets, and Beltran throwing to 3rd instead of 2nd are the difference in this game.

Will Yankees fan cheer or boo El Duque on his return to Yankee Stadium?

Didn't want to be too obvious.

Gabe Kapler, Welcome Back.

Welcome a-bordick mt8thsw9th. I think we need to come up with a nickname for your unpronouncable handle.
