="SteveJRogers"]Nice, but I'm pretty sure I said that I was going to do one for every Metly opponent and since no onelse stepped up I was going to do something along the line of my Dodger one.

="Yancy Street Gang"]Here it is, for posterity: ="Cliff Floyd"] I'll be all right ... I hope When I got to third base while scoring on Shawn Green's double in the third inning, my Achilles tendon went. You know people sometimes say they hear something. I didn�t hear anything, but I felt it -- like an ice pick in my calf. I want to play, and I don�t know what to think. I wanted to score that run. It�s the postseason. You don�t hold back. We wanted that run, and now my leg might hold me back. My Achilles betrayed me. First, they said I�d stretched it. But then they said I strained it. What I say is I hurt it. Damn. I�m just glad I made it to the plate. I don�t remember what I was thinking as I ran or limped or whatever I did. I have mixed emotions -- happy that I scored, and very ticked because I pulled it. The good news is that I�ve got Monday and Tuesday to get treatment before we play again. And I've already started treatment with ice. I�ll be wearing one of those boots again. I don't know, maybe it�ll get better in two days. If it doesn�t, I�ll deal with it. Someone already suggested to me that I could be the DH if we get into the World Series. I�ll take that, I guess, but I want to play in the next series -- every day hopefully -- if we get to the World Series. You know, Endy Chavez got me good with the champagne after the game. Just his way of saying thank you for getting him in the game. I left the game in good hands. So I�m not too worried. We�ll be OK. Look what we did after we lost Pedro Martinez and Orlando "El Duque" Hernandez. I�ll just rub some champagne on it and see, or I�ll have a few beers. Maybe a few more, and by the time I get to Wednesday, I�ll be good to go. What did he do, post this during the champagne party?

Jay Fucking Payton baby.

Bannister in game 4. Since that's not happening I agree with the general concensus.

He only did because five other people did before him.

Tom can talk about how his champagne parties aren't as exciting since he's been to the postseason so much....but he's only got one World Series win. I wonder how he feels about another opportunity at the WS. He knows better than anyone that consistently making the playoffs isn't enough to get you a bunch of WS rings.

My HD is screwed up a little too.

Should I say it again? Yeah I'll say it: How come major leaguers don't know to run through the bag?

Edgy DC wrote: Besides, hasn't time shown Axl to be just as strange? Well yeah, but what does that have to do with anything? How come Axl has to get ripped in a discussion of Slash selling out?

Eh. He probably needed the money more back then. He got reamed in the divorce. Though Velvet Revolver probably isn't making all that much.

Chavez, Reyes and Beltran on the bases. That's some serious FUCKING speed.

You could see the "What the fuck" expression on Cornelius' face too. I don't blame him.

Floyd murdered that ball. That's Shea Stadium and a breezy Flushing night for you. Breezy Flushing Nights could be the name of a soft-core porn movie.

What the fuck is Little doing? Fucking moron. He's trying to figure out how many innings to pitch Pedro. HEY ASSHOLE, OUR PITCHER'S GETTING COLD.

Voting for this game will close the morning of Game 3.

A cute little spot on the 1986 team on Fox.

When's the first pitch?

The "official" statistics on nymets.com list only one assist for Green. "Official" meaning approved by Major League Baseball. I'm not sure if that means anything.

]To the overriding point, Gary Cohen is the acknowledged flagship voice of the New York Mets. Was.

I volunteer.
