I love the music in that. Quirky soundtrack that had an impact. Edgy MD wrote: Well, the game began at 9, but the Mets start at 11. Keep the line moving! And it's only the 6th. I thought this kinda torture was against the law.

Muff throws water on the fire with a GIDP.

They should install a tight netting from the OF wall to cover that kids sand box. No 'lil tike has ever gotten beaned in there? Grandy scores to get my attention. Tejada ripped a double down the LF line. Duda, we need a blast!

This is pretty pathetic. I'm being generous using the word pretty.

6 man rotation, huh?

Edgy MD wrote: Really? Go crazy. It's actually saved at something like four times the size displayed above. I might have to pull to make it square, but I've done that before. It's the best copy of that photo I've seen. That's shrunk thru the board tho, right? Then if I save it, it should be the orig size unless you manually shrunk the pic yourself. I'm tempted to photoshop a man-bra on Rube but he doesn't really need one. re above: B.B.Ref is telling me Bob L made a stop in Detroit on his way to NY for his second stint. This is my fav home made OPChee card (so far) [fimg=200]https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-IYND42cEkOM/UxrXnO9-dCI/AAAAAAAANZ4/5bj7AS9A-Cs/s800/72opcWILLIAMS-z14.png[/fimg]

Wow. Cecil was out. That wasn't an easy thing to do, be thrown out there. Buckner still sucks.

WHAT!!!????? C.B. Fuckhead again.

Sheesh, we got off easy. 2-0 [fimg=50:3gxpba5m]http://www.columbusmoveandstore.com/images/pods_portable_storage_container.gif[/fimg:3gxpba5m] Cecil came to play!

Ugh. Bases loaded, 1 out. We really need Gee to AT LEAST go 5. Cripes. Settle down Gee. Your big here. We need a win. Gee hits Alonso with a pitch. Niiiiiice (see sarc-0-meter)

Edgy MD wrote: Yeah, I didn't even factor in how bad Kemp has been in the field. I'm getting these ads for Old Dominion Household Services. They help you move by letting you pack the van, driving the van for you, and then letting you unpack the van. What kind of terrible service is that? A ridiculously cheap one, I imagine.
-
Great way to start. Gee's first batter reaches on error (Tejeda). And he walks the next guy. Niiiiice. sarco-meter [ /]

Edgy MD wrote: How is Granderson not on third? Agreed. Even having to get out of the way of the grounder, Kemp had a long way to go and he sucks anymore.

batmagadanleadoff wrote: That's great work. The '73 style's perfect. Topps occasionally used photos that were years old so there'd be nothing unusual about a '71 pic on a '73 card. I agree with you that "Now With Mets" is preferable. Maybe one card for Rogers (the one you made) and one for the thread just like the Rogers card, only swapping "Now with Mets" with the Rogers text --- but leave the Padres name on the card. Thank you. Don't we need a pic of Miller on the Mets (circa 1974) to make this work? I'm looking for one. I have found a couple, a bad color one and a small B&W. The oldest Mets yearbook I currently own is a 1975 one. Does anyone have a '74 yearbook and want to be bothered with giving Miller a scan? I have the one from Centerfield Maz. Can't be used unless the name plate is removed and the missing uniform parts photoshopped in. I don't know if that's worth the time it'll take with such an inferior image. If I can get a bigger and better copy of that photograph, I'll give it a shot.

Chicken cordon bleu. If I win you have to give me copies of all your "Man From Topps" photos. Or a link to em.

Which one is the clown and which is the scumbag?

That shouldn't take long at all. But I'm eatin dinner. for the game. One of these days I want to try and simulate a very bad airbrush job card, but that would take some time to get just right. It has to be good enough, but also be bad enough.
-
I already had started it and went w/the Padres. I could just change the team and and have the notation say "Now With Mets". I didn't get to see those types of OPC cards til the later 80's and always have been a big fan of those. I thought I'd use the notation to make the card unique onto Mr. Rogers. But I wish I went the "Now With Mets" route. That would have been much cooler.
-
I don't make cards for cheaters. HA! I kid. Personally, if a quiz is unanswered long enough I see np with looking stuff up. As long as you learn something. Ask Rogers the question next month and if he can't answer it w/o looking it up again, he must return the digital non 3 dimensional card & I will delete it from reality. I'll have a '73 Miller up by game time.

I'm waiting for Tejada to rip off his Mission Impossible rubber mask. I'm dyin to see who's under there. Another hit. We could climb right back in. 2 on Duda up. My eyelids are growing incredibly heavy.

That may be bushed or simply not ready, but either way I think those who were eager to replace d'Arnaud were a bit premature. RBI by Wilmer ... comeback is starting! IIRC aside from a nice little starting spurt d'Arnaud kinda sucked up the place til he went down and came back up. I like em both, hope both pan out. I don't expect Plawecki stay up when d' comes back. Cause there's something to that "he's not ready" talk. He needs to play and d' will get the bulk of it in the bigs, health willing.
