I was thinking child molestation. Maybe the guy just wanted him dead for what he may have done? Maybe he thought someone else might've as well?

="Benjamin Grimm"]The two Mets I'm most suspicious of are Hundley and Dykstra. I'll add Gilkey, Piazza and Ventura as my suspects.

John Maine was NOT in a weird place...

David Wright on the Big Idea with Donny Deutsch .
soupcan replied to metirish's topic in New York Mets Talk
Just remember the secret sign and you'll be fine... -
That's absolutely great. From the 'sweet lookin' li'l thing' that drops the ball into the pitching machine to Littell swearing that he has, but not showing us, his 'real cajones' to Chris Sabo testifying that there is no pain in the 'testiklees'.

My wife wanted to watch it (thanks Oprah!) so I did as well. Agree with Greg about all the Metsian inconsistencies. I did like what they did with the scenes at Shea though. It was obviously filmed after a significant portion of Citifield had been built and there were a few shots of the outfield wall. They did some visual effect stuff and all you saw when the view was toward the scoreboard was clear blue sky. It looked a bit odd but I give them credit for actually filming at Shea and having enough attention to detail to address that.

HAIL! I think of Chick Hearn

I believe that 'Chick' is supposed to be a catcher.

So maybe the Mets don't have to bankrupt the system to get D-Train then. 25 years old, playing with a winning team with a solid defense in NYC. You know you guys want him. Pedro, Willis, Maine, Perez. That doesn't sound too bad now does it? If you get Santana you're going to have to give him $130-$140 mil over 7 years. History shows that eventually that'll be a bad contract. Whatever you pay and then later have to eat because of Pudge is going to be a whole lot less than what you would give to Santana and The Mets wouldn't have to give the Tiggers the same kind of package that a Santana deal would demand.

Anyone up for a Song Parody Contest this offseason?
soupcan replied to stevejrogers's topic in New York Mets Talk
If you still have room I'd like to be included. -
Sure but my point is that he is in the position of extorting money and when has a ballplayer ever been in that position and not taken advantage of it? UGH- Now I'm Bobby Bonilla? Geez.
-
Well he's in the driver's seat. If you don't extend him on his terms then he doesn't waive his no trade and you're shit outta luck.

Frayed Knot wrote: Last two years for Willis = IPs down, hits up, Ks down, BBs up, HRs allowed up, ERA up I'd fall considerably short of saying "Stud" Okay fine but he's still a number 1 guy in his mid-twenties with no health issues who has won 20 games in the bigs. The money you'd have to pay Pudge and Dontrelle is still less than what you'd have to pay Santana anyway.
-
I'll give D-Train (a perfect nickname for a player in NYC) a pass on last year. He's a stud. Didn't think about Pudge's no-trade/possible extension. Maybe that means the Mets can take back or switch out one of the players in the imagined deal - Martinez? Heilman? I'd really like to see Omar make this happen. Really. I would.
-
But he's only got the one year left on his deal (I think) and he's better than any catcher the Mets have right now. Besides this is about Dontrelle.

metirish wrote: No way this happens. ] Here are some other things I heard before I left for the evening: - Although it is not confirmed, the Tigers might look to trade Dontrelle Willis and Ivan Rodriguez to the Mets for Brian Schneider, Phil Humber, Fernando Martinez, and Aaron Heilman. Those names are not being thrown around at the moment, but it is a possibility. Personally, I think the Tigers should absorb the money by bringing in these players and make a run at a World Series. http://mlb-rumors.blogspot.com/ I would happily do that deal.

Fman99 wrote: Rolling Stones' "Steel Wheels" tour. October 26, 1989. We had 10th row isle seats (the only time I've ever been down on the field at Shea). Living Colour opened. We had a rockin' good time. I was 16 years old. Not sure of the exact date - but I was there for one of those also. I remember three things - The enourmous inflatable women on either side of the stage that were inflated for 'Honky Tonk Women'. A very drunk woman dancing in front of my friend and me at the beer line singing to us - "You make a dead man cummmmmm....!" I took it as a compliment. The crush to get on the 7 train was like I had never seen it before or since. At least 30 minutes just to get from street level to the platform.

Peter Frampton, Humble Pie - Know the singer and the band - did not know that the singer was ever with that band. Jerry Rafferty, Steeler's Wheel - See above Randy Bachman, The Guess Who- Know the band not the singer unless he had something to do with BTO.

I have a memory of that although I'm surprised to see it was almost 30 years ago. I would have guessed late '80's early '90's.

"Lars (Ryan Gosling) is an awkwardly shy young man in a small nothern town who finally brings home the girl of his dreams to his brother and sister-in-law's home. The only problem is that she's not real - she's a sex doll Lars ordered off the internet. But sex is not what Lars has in mind, but rather a deep, meaningful relationship." This was a cute movie that could've benefitted well from a heavier hand in the editing room. The characters were appealing and Gosling was excellent in what had to be a tough assignment. You have to either suspend disbelief a little or have more faith in mankind then I do towards the end. Both my wife and I found it enjoyable and worth the price of admission. I gave it 4 stars.

soupcan replied to a topic in New York Mets Talk
Dislike. Good transcript Namor. -
"Lasting's value didn't decrease, Church and Schneider are established productive MLers. Good trade for both sides, blah, blah, blah, blah....."
