  1. I guess it was in both places but that was one thing I thought only us old farts would know.
  2. SteveJRogers wrote: Playing Strat-o-matic with his brother! Well you're correct but I was hoping that someone who actually remembered reading it in the paper the next day was going to answer it. How do you know that Steve? I'm assuming you were too young to have seen it in print at that time.
  3. Here's a question that I didn't see the answer to on the 'memories of the game' at UMDB - Anybody remember Dykstra's quote when asked if he ever hit a homerun that big/dramatic prior to that one?

  5. I heard she also offended half her audience when in response to some guy in the crowd admonishing her about a Bush diatribe she said 'Fuck You!'Babs needs to realize that her audience has aged a bit and while they may have blue hair they don't necessarily appreciate blue language.
  6. I'm happy to go slumming - where and when?
  7. I'm there tomorrow with my poncho in tow.

  9. Torre on the FAN invokes the name of Rube Walker and gives Rube credit for making him aware of how important it is to 'take care' of pitchers early in Torre's managerial career
  10. More from DodgerBlues in response to Jose Reyes' exuberence in Game 3. sadLAD wrote: If Drysdale or Gibson are on the mound, next time up ,he is picking dirt out out of his Lisa Simpson hairdo... That cracked me up. Keep in mind this was one sentence in a profane, racist post but still that part of the description had me cracking up. That's the only problem with those guys, they're definitely funny but you can't read a post without having your race and religion dragged into the sewer.
  11. Yeah, I've gotten zero compliments as well. The missus ain't a big fan.
  12. ="National Weather Service"]Wednesday Night: A chance of showers, then showers likely and possibly a thunderstorm after 3am. Mostly cloudy, with a low around 57. East wind between 8 and 11 mph. Chance of precipitation is 60%. New rainfall amounts of less than a tenth of an inch, except higher amounts possible in thunderstorms. What does that mean? There's a chance of showers after 3am or showers in the evening and then a thunderstorm after 3am?
  13. Guaranteed multi-million dollar contracts will do that to you.
  14. Great idea! Post your MetsBeard! Mine:

  16. Mets in 6.
  17. metirish wrote: Anyone just a little pissed that this saga is taking the spotlight of the Mets some what?, I am and I wish they would go away.. Not me. The Times sports section this morning was pure joy. 37 articles on the Yankee mess and maybe 3 or 4 about the Mets and the upcoming NLCS. I find it very amusing reading all these Yankee articles and seeing Yankee fans so completely unhappy. Let them have the spotlight of infamy while we quietly prepare.

  19. ="DocTee"]Do any other teams have a different color dot? I think the Dodgers may have white, but am unsure. Cubs.
  20. Amazin', amazin', amazin'!!! Fantastic job!
  21. I'm 50-50 here. I would like for the Mets to play the Tigers because I like having old traditional teams in the WS and although the A's have lineage to the Philadelphia A's I personally don't consider them the 'same' team. I would like to play the A's because I also like seeing WS rematches.
  22. Love the pods unis as well. Man Law: 2 uniform styles per team - Home whites with team name, road greys with city/state.
  23. What are you gonna do? Read every baseball-related article in every sports section of every New York City area newspaper you can find. Boo Yankees! Yay Mets! It's a joyous time.
  24. That 'Dodgerblues' site keeps me going back there. It's like the old MOFO on Human Growth Hormone. I-I-I don't want to look but I can't help myself. One thing I saw there - Kirk Gibson lame leg - 1988 Nomar Garciaparra lame leg - 2006 Not funny.
  25. ="SteveJRogers"]And of course all WS are skewered towards MFY If that was a typo its funny but if you meant it you get a golf clap.
