I don't want people to miss this comment: VALENTIN IS A FUCKING MORON

Valentin is a FUCKING MORON.

YES!!!!! I NEEDED A GOOD KICK IN THE ASS!!! METS BABY!!!!!

They have given up.

Mixed feelings about Lasorda. I didn't enjoy the 1988 NLCS. And he's annoying. But he brought Mikey into my life.

BTW, that tri-boom thing is fucking fantastic, Z. One of your best efforts (and that's saying something).

You know what else sucks ass? We may need an Oliver type for tomorrow. Putting AndyHandy on the roster (because of Floyd's injury) and removing a pitcher may hurt us.

I can't take this.

LETS FUCKING DO SOMETHING GUYS.....RIGHT NOW

Feeling very pessimistic right now.

"En-dy Cha-vez" when they were intentionally walking Wright in front of him) and the "Paul Lo-Duca" chants that seem to be at every game, but there was nothing done that remotely approached what's done at the Yankee games (ie. all the players, at the same time, etc). I'll add on to what Gwreck said. The "roll call" is a very cool thing....but the only part that is unique to Yankee Stadium is the actual part that makes it a roll call, calling out each player one at a time until he waves. I hate to break it to M&MD and Yankee fans, but the generic four-syllable chant followed by five claps has been happening a long time before bone-headed Yankee bandwagoners came along. "Let Go Hus-Kies" is my personal favorite version of that chant. If Met fans did the "roll call" portion I would have a problem with it. But they don't, they only do the generic chant. Which of course is fine. NOTE: I can't STAND the playing of Sweet Caroline. That is genuine thievery. Let's find our own goddam song.

And it has become almost common knowledge at this point anyway. Rotblatt had it right with El Duque. Supposedly he is not only maybe going to be on the roster for the WS (if they are lucky enough to make it) but is coming along much, much better than expected and may in fact get a start or two. Sorry for making this appear to be more than it is, probably should have kept my mouth shut in the first place. Lesson learned. Can I still get a Heiny from those girls? I'm not 100% sure why you wanted to keep this a secret from Metly opponents. After all, they woulda known when he was put on the WS roster no?

Was it someone on this board whose wife's hairdresser's husband was in the know? I swear I'm not making that up.

I love retail rent.

I sent a PM Rotblatt...just making sure you got it b/c I didn't get yours before.

soupcan wrote: Well this thread made it a bigger deal than it probably is Ah. Well then I guess it's not news on a hurt player becoming healthy. That would be huge.

PM coming.

How do I get ahold of Rotblatt? I may have a solution here.

I'm not saying this as some sort of childish reverse psychology....I'm wondering if your can is full of something other than soup.

Ummm....soupy, if you don't want Metly opponents to get ahold of it how 'bout we do a PM chain letter?

Don't get my hopes up for those.
