Tuesday is really going to suck if we lose Monday.

Never, ever, ever, ever, ever by a DVD at a bookstore. Also, never by ANYTHING at Tower Records.

I dunno. I wasn't in charge. That tiebreaker sounds fine to me: Total number of rainouts.

Bump...as the annoying capitalized title states, I couldn't remember what section 3 was from last year's Met Predictions. I remembered it and added in. This is a fun game.

He said "I"? I'm disillusioned.

I agree - the whites are trying to keep a black ballplayer from passing Babe Ruth's record. Because it's never happened before.

I was thinking ERA (low) and (high) would be for the whole team. BAA, too.

$67 on The Big O's link.

19 has some historical significance for a lefty starter, no?

I have a guess as to who the next pitcher to attack a mediot will be.

What a fucking rag the Post is. They should display it next to the Enquirer.

She's the one to feel sorry for.

Stupid work.

The Johnny 5 picture is busted.

3/30/06 - I had forgotten section 3 - which is team categories. Go ahead and edit your post if you want. I've been waiting patiently, so I figured I'd fire one up since we're FIVE!!!! days away from the opener. 1) Give the Met who will have the most of each category, names but no numbers Batting categories Games Hits Doubles Triples Home runs RBI Stolen Bases Caught stealing Runs scored Batting average (high) On base percentage (high) Strikeouts (high) Walks Pitching categories Wins Losses Strikeouts Walks ERA (low) ERA (high) ERA (low by a starter) ERA (high by a starter) Saves BAA (low) BAA (high) Games started Games pitched 2) Give the number for the player and category specified Cliff Floyd - games Cliff Floyd - batting average David Wright - runs scored David Wright - RBI Carlos Beltran - home runs Carlos Beltran - stolen bases Jose Reyes - errors Jose Reyes - on base percentage Carlos Delgado - batting average Carlos Delgado - RBI Kaz Matsui - games Kaz Matsui - runs scored Anderson Hernandez - games Anderson Hernandez - batting average Anderson Hernandez - fielding percentage Paul Lo Duca - on base percentage Xavier Nady - RBI Victor Diaz - games Pedro Martinez - strikeouts Tom Glavine - wins Steve Trachsel - losses Steve Trachsel - walks Victor Zambrano - ERA Victor Zambrano - strikeouts Brian Bannister - games started Aaron Heilman - games started Billy Wagner - saves Billy Wagner - ERA Jorge Julio - ERA 3)Team Categories Total runs scored Total runs against Team ERA Team batting average Record NL East Finish (1st, 2nd, etc.) Games behind NL East Winner Playoffs (Division winner, Wildcard winner, no playoffs) Playoff finish - (Win WS, Lose WS, Lose NLCS, Lose NLDS, no playoffs) 4)Tie-breakers 1st tie breaker - Total number of rainouts 2nd tie breaker - Time of longest game of the year

I'm not sure what that means. But whatever it is, my guess is it's more likely that everything was just pushed back into place for the FHM photos.

Airbrushing is amazing.

I am not confident in Castro's ability to take on a starting role.

This isn't that far away from being a complete disaster. I'm officially terrified.

An Anna Benson can be picked up for $50 at any strip club. That price includes the oil.
