Zvon

I'll take 2.

Fox screws me and shows the Phils/BoSox game down here in south Jersey. Good thing I have this lil cheap AM radio I got from the bank years ago.

lets take Takahashi's performance and say yay and forget about the rest of the night.

gah. ...again with the givin' me hope and then kickin' me right in the balls.

Bay shows his warning track power. I'll take a 2 out double.

Go get some rest Nieve. While you have a chance. Lets go Pedro! *clap,clap,clapclap

was that a strike on Wright? Radio says too close to take but I really wanna hear that it was low and a ball and a bad call.

Vasquez stubbed his finger. Yay! I thought Perez was supposed to pwn the Skanks......

ugh. If we get out of this w/o allowin' a run I will go to church Sunday.

cheeze and crackers - I thought GMJ was supposed to pwn Vazquez. Reyes pops up. Where are the bats!

An inside the park homer and a triple play in the same game? ..isn't that special.

And his hutzpah. Like battin Reyes 3rd... I did not like it, I did not agree with it, but he did it in the face of adversity. And even when being pressured to stop doing it by media and fans, he felt he needed a certain amount of time to see if it would work. He believed in something and he went with it. And he stuck with it until he decided it wasn't going to work. Until HE decided. No knee jerk reaction to the pressures. Also his even keel. I like that in some managers and not in others.Some become bland. (I like the opposite in some managers but not in others.) I like it in Jerry. He has a good mix of calmness and humor. Most of all I like his patience. It's a long season and it suits the game. MFS62 wrote: And do you feel those positives are enough so you would want to retain him as manager? Yes, in my opinion. Lets face it. The way things are right now we have a third place team here. I pretty much felt that way coming out of spring training. This is not Jerrys fault. Yea, he should stay, at least until the All Star break if the team can keep its head, hey, even just its nose, above water. Many won't agree but I also am a very patient man.

whoot

that was nailbite'n time. I wanna thank you guys for the details here. These descriptions beat the droll write ups of any sports site out there.

Jeff just swung by to do a little Terry Cashman, according to Adam Rubin. Q: Did you express confidence? JW: "I came to talk baseball with them and hear what they want to do and how they want to get this moving in the right direction." whew. I saw this thread pop up and I thought "yikes, they fired him during the game!"

The day the Mets are 7 games out. Even tho I truly feel that its Omar who shud pack his bags. Thats surprising to me cuz I've always been an Omar supporter. But his agenda has hurt the team at this point. Two contracts that keep on hittin me over the head: Castillo and Perez. Castillo is not as bad as I thought he would end up being, not by far, but he was not worth what he was given. No way. Perez? Hope in one hand and shit in the other. He gambled. Looks like a big loss at this point. Better yet, I hope the Wilpons sell the team. Whats Doubleday up to these days?

oy vay.

They are just teasin us, aren't they? Stringin us along. I few innings ago I had no hope and I felt better.

I can't see or hear the game where I'm at today. I don't know if I should thank you guys for the info or curse yaz all to hell. Okay, I won't take it out on u guys. Thx 4 the info... Damn. We may have to change that to "Omars Law"...
