    Maine actually pitched well, IMHO. He was....how do you say....lights out....for the first four. The problem is he got tired. And I don't blame him. He's just coming off an injury and all.
  2. Elster88
    He was pretty darn good. 40-40 club and all. You're right, he wasn't Ruthian but that was before we knew that 40 home runs would become a mediocre year for a roidhead

    That's about how many fans show up for a playoff game too.

    I figured that question was coming. I'll take a rain check on answering that. I guess that's a discussion for another thread anyway.

    I always felt he was robbed in the 2000 MVP voting more than in the years he finished behind a Colorado player. If today's definition of MVP necessitates being basically the only guy on your team, how does it make sense that Kent and Bonds finished 1-2 that year? Shouldn't they knock each other out of the voting? Actually I disagree with today's definition of MVP, but if that's the standard...

    I love Mikey as much as (actually probably more than) the next guy. But his power numbers don't "look" as impressive as they should. 1993 - 35-112 (9th in MVP voting) 94 - 24-92 (6th) 95 - 32-93 (4th) 96 - 36-105 (2nd) 97 - 40-124 (2nd) 98 - 32-111 (14th) 99 - 40-124 (7th) 00 - 38-113 (3rd) 01 - 36-94 (13th) 02 - 33-98 Imagine a run like that in the 80's.

    Bump. Updated.

    When did what appear? The S on his cape? In the first four movies at least, I couldn't say for sure about the comics.
  10. Elster88
    How come his cape didn't have a yellow S? Not that I'm complaining.
  11. Elster88
    Cut this shit out. It's fucking pathetic.
  12. Elster88
    Weird bounce helps the ball go by a diving Dirty Sanchez.
  13. Elster88
    Didn't he fall apart in the fifth in his other start too? This is where Willie shoulda used the hook sooner. Where's Joe Morgan when you need him?
  14. Elster88
    Ronnie and Gary discussing how sometimes you give up the game and play for the next few. Amazing that they get it, we get it, and Joe Morgan's partner gets it....but Joe himself doesn't get it. I keep forgetting, that's not amazing, it's typical.
  15. Elster88
    Picture not working.
  16. Elster88
    Maine dialing up the heat today. He's hit 94 on the gun. The first three batters hit the ball hard, but only one found a hole. I was concerned. Since then, Maine has been impressive.
  17. Elster88
    I'm guessing we have reported in another thread, but Pedro will not start tonight.
  18. Elster88
    A lot of writers are failing to realize that today's game means as much in the standings as yesterday's/

    Edgy DC wrote: It's pretty flawed. But it's been covered. And it was covered last year. And the year before that. And the year before that. So why write the same article every year?
  20. Elster88
    Do the writers take turns writing the generic "All-Star voting is flawed" columns, or is it the same writers each year?

    Very nice.

Of course Joe had to have it and WWSB didn;t, necessarily. That's what makes me so damn furious. Maybe he "didn't" have to have it but that shows, in my opinion, a serious disrespect for Mets fans (ie. not recognizing the importance of this particular series). Actually, my guess is that most fans do recognize the importance of this series....which is virtually nothing. Joe Moron was the one who didn't realize it the actual importance of this game. Amazing too that he failed to get the point, even as his partner spent a good five minutes explaining it to him. Actually it's not surprising, knowing him. These fools went on tangents the whole game. It must have been annoying to them that the action on the field kept getting in the way of their chat.

    Since June 8th, the Twinkies have gone 19-2. Over that time span, they have gained 1.5 games on the first place team in their division.

    Too pissed off to talk some Rickey-speak.
