Or post du jour in keeping with the multicultural aspects of this thread.

    They both played with Sid Fernandez as well.

    It think the Mets should go hard after Carlos Guillen, Carlos Lee and Carlos Baerga so that they may corner the All-Star Carlos market in MLB.

    Are those two Alpaca getting it on?

    I just discovered this forum. I'll play in a free Yahoo league (or something similar). Just to warn you all, I suck.

    All this name outing is very dangerous. Everyone better hide their children to be safe.

    Hushing people who wish to speak their minds is very American, it's happened again and again since 1787.

    Anyone still in favor of this after the Mets free agent rampage? Is Piazza even still a possibility? I'm not stating pro-or-anti, just curious of the option.

    Now that you mention it, there's someone who raises alpacas near my Mom's house, although I doubt Wagner lives there.

    You Trammel voters are going to get brownie points with Ms. Tiger. ]The publicity around the ballot doesn't seem to have officially begun, but I expect that the story of this year's ballot will be that Pete Rose's eligibility with the BBWAA has expired. Except that he's never been eligible to start with. What a conundrum.

    Did we get Manny yet?

    The Yankees still have substantial advantages over the rest of the league. Other teams have stocked up on free agents and big names and had it flop (see Orioles, Rangers) or were sucessful briefly but couldn't sustain it (1997 Marlins, 2001 Diamondbacks). Hell, even the Mets 2001-2002 offseason acquisitions were considered bold at the time but lead nowhere near Yankee success. When the Mets can sign an aging all-star with a prohibitive salary on waivers and convince him to be happy coming in off the bench once a week, when the Mets can overpay on gazillion-dollar contract to a first baseman who had one great year and then release him without a care if he flops, and when the Mets can resign all the star players on their own team they want whether developed in the farm or acquired elsewhere by blowing the other suitors out of the water, THEN they'll start being like the Yankees.

    He,he,he. I don't even have a TV much less a collection of videos/DVDs to sell.

    Wifey Watch is wallowing in the Featured Archives wearing that same old shabby dress. C'mon Edgy, just some flowers, dinner -- try a little tenderness.

    This thread certainly was missing the ambler 4-pack. I wonder how many of our active members even know who ambler is these days?

    Rent

    Willets Point replied to a topic in Film Review Forum

    I saw the musical several years back as the touring company performed it in Washington. I found it entertaining. Some of the songs were far too top 40 sounding, but the music was enjoyable over all. The main failure of Rent was that the main characters Mimi & Roger who we're supposed to be focused on are totally uninteresting and I found my self not caring about their story and wanted to see more of the stories of the two gay couples. I don't really feel drawn to see the film adaptation.

    Put me down in favor of contracting Florida's major league baseball franchises. This is getting ridiculous.

    Sniff. Just once I'd like to see one of my little guys make it to the Mets before he runs away.Looks like I need a new adoptee.
