  1. Comeooooooooooooooooooooooooooooon Clippy!
  2. I didn't think I'd be a wreck until a game 6 or 7. I was wrong. I'm a wreck now. LETS GO METS!!! Go CLippy Go! [fimg=500:26hxk0a3]https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-A_8q-EWAK5U/VjV3meURROI/AAAAAAAAiw4/sZPduX2MhOM/s603-Ic42/2015mfcWSgm4-CONFORTO2-z15.png[/fimg:26hxk0a3]

  4. I do believe this belongs up here. HAPPY HALLOWEEN YOU ASS MUNCHING !
  5. I just saw the buzz pitch. It was eye level but he didn't have to move his head. Just the pitch being up there floored him. lol. That was the perfect purpose pitch. Earlier I thought it was more above his head. But it wasn't. Still, shhhh. Till after we win. I do not want to see Noah getting thrown at.
  6. I think it's very kool that he did it, but he could have "owned it" after the series. I also think it's great he's being so ballsy, so maybe that plays in his favor. Love the ballsiness. Not too thrilled with the timing. Can't find one pic of that nice play Wright made on the bloop single/could'a been a double.
  7. That works fine. I remember this. I'm an old fan from the pre-apple days, but who doesn't love the apple? Everyone loves the apple! Strawmans swing. Boy, I miss seeing that. Seeing both him and Doc as Yanks was tough. I didn't feel that way about Cone. Only those two. Oh, and Swoboda. Those three.

I ask because this was happening to both my broadcast and my brothers at his place. Bleeping out curses maybe lol. No, just a complete drop out. Even during commercials. I thought Harold Reynolds was full of shit half of the time. I missed Joel singing the anthem. I appreciate that Syndergaard was willing to start the game with one up and in, but considering how close it was to the guys head he should just remain mum on this. They still got the message whether he admits to it or not.

(2) As long as the guy is banned, isn't it in baseball's interest to ask broadcasters that contract with not to hire him either? 1) It is not. 2) I've enjoyed Pete. If he can do the job I see no reason why he shouldn't have it. My own question: Was there an intermittent loss of sound for like a second every 10 or 15 minutes?

LeiterWagnerFasterStrongr wrote: At Bats of the Game: 1) the Grandy come-backer where the pitcher brain-locked 2) getting Gordon to ground out with the bases loaded (Syndergaard's last pitch as it turned out) If either or both of those ABs turn out other than how they did this could have been a very different game despite the final lopsided score And if the umps had called strikes correctly in the first few innings, it's a shutout. Baseball. It's funny. Normally I'm like, the ump sucks but he's human and all a that, like trying to be nice. But early on with Thor, before he was getting the calls, I was like, THAT'S IT, GET ROBOTS OR CAMERAS OR WHATEVERTHEFUCKYOUWANT to call the strikes! I'VE HAD ENOUGH! NO MORE HUMAN UMPS! Then a few innings later I was over it.

  12. YES!. Wright gets the last out
  13. So it's unanimous? WTF is Familia doing in there? One out to go.

  15. "Seemingly"? They seemingly know the words to Piano Man? What does that mean?
  16. Edgy MD wrote: I'll take it Yo-Yo. I really thought it was outta there for a millisecond. To see Wright in his first home at-bat in a World Series absolutely CRUSH one...that made this series a win, win or lose. That was just beautiful.

  18. Well, it's a game 3 in the World Series. You know what that means! (if we ignore Timo, and we should always ignore Timo) [fimg=300:hw8n7kjj]https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-Lz8KpkII3cA/VFLtewZtFRI/AAAAAAAAVUs/tK8VfqBrFww/s465-Ic42/70mfc69WS-GM3-AgeeHR-z14.png[/fimg:hw8n7kjj] [fimg=400:hw8n7kjj]https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-Qey6FcbKC44/VFmK_vgwYhI/AAAAAAAAVdM/DHUQUkLtzII/s800-Ic42/73mfcWSgm3-GARRETT-lohr-z14.png[/fimg:hw8n7kjj] [fimg=300:hw8n7kjj]https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-t0bWzwFYkFM/VFMBy2kTeMI/AAAAAAAAVU8/t5tGC9M90vg/s576-Ic42/87MFC-86WS-gm3-DykstraHR-Z14.png[/fimg:hw8n7kjj]

  20. Those have orange pull strings. AHHHHH, I need two now!
  21. I like that hoodie. I need me that hoodie. Last time I spent $$ on anything Mets (not baseball card related) was when I bought that 4th of July cap, which I'm sure I waved all around here like a 12 yr old. That had to be....2007? It was the year they sold the dark blue cap with the stars & stripes NY. So I'm gonna throw some money at em so they can pay Cespedes and offer Murphy 2 years. About the WS hats: The reg blue cap w/orange NY is straight up reg hat material. The one with the white NY (orange piping) is a kind of cross mesh material. Looks very kool. Holds a bridge better out of the box. Oh also, I saw something in another thread about washing hats. Don't recall if I posted this: They have these plastic hat shaped supporter things that you can put inside the cap when you wash it, and it really saves the bridge of the cap from collapsing.
  22. I might have to take full responsibility for losing games one and two. I ordered the Mets World Series cap, I hoped it would get here for game one. I forgot about it suffering through game two. It just came. I didn't have the cap! Now I have my new lucky Mets WS cap! Now we're gonna start some winning. A little disappointed that the WS logo isn't actually stitched into the cap. Its some kind of plastic, stuck on deal. Still, awesome as hell. I also got this kool car.

  23. Thanks for sharing this. I love last outs. It's a joy to watch these.
  24. I've gone from extremely confident to DON"T BE SWEPT! Not only because it's the Mets in the series, but because then that's it, no more baseball. Gotta take all 3 in NY. deGrom not excelling, disappointing. But it was a lot of grounder hits and a few misplaced walks..he wasn't shelled. Disappointing.In any case, we have to find our bats again. Please don't let it be a sweep! That should be easy. Just win one game ASAP.
  25. Okay, I was kinda neutral before. But now I hate em cause they won game one.
