Oh for the good old days when the Mets would blow leads late. Even the Luis Castillo game is starting to look good by comparison. How often do the Mets look like they have a chance in the late innings these days? As soon as the Yankees erupted for four runs in the sixth, the game was over. Last ...
Kings of New York
riveraveblues.com 7/1/2009 — When it comes to rooting interests, New Yorkers can be a fickle bunch. “Which team is doing better?” many will ask before picking a favorite. While the Yankees currently rule the New York roost , it wasn’t always this way.
In the ...
Time to gloat and do the Snoopy dance over the Yankees sweeping the Mets
subwaysquawkers.blogspot.com 6/29/2009 — I guess I should be all empathetic and make murmuring noises to Squawker Jon about how I feel bad for him that his Mets got swept by the Yankees. Because he and his fellow Met fans would do the same for us, right? Wrong. C'mon, who are we kidding here? If the Mets swept the Yanks, Jon would be ...
Two-Week Mets Rehab and Detox Over: Lessons Learned
legendofcecilioguante.com 6/28/2009 — Rehabilitated? I Don't Know the Meaning of the Word... A wise philosopher once said: "Isms in my opinion are not good. A person should not believe in an isms, he should believe in himself." Prescient commentary. Fanaticism is one of those isms, and it too is not good. This is one of the ...
Funny Guys
theballclub.blogspot.com 6/28/2009 — The only enjoyment last night's game seems to have provided is a bunch of really ridiculous looking photographs of the Yankees making merry all over our back yard. It's kind of sickening, really. There's not much to laugh about as far as the Mets are concerned. Sometime around the 6th inning, ...
Just So Many Summers, Babe
faithandfear.blogharbor.com 7/6/2009 — There're just so many summers, babe. And just so many springs.
Don Henley's lyrics came to me early in the 1993 season. Too early. 1993 wasn't, sadly, the last worthless season that we'd have to spend, but damn if it wasn't over fast. The Mets were 12-25 after 37 games, 15 behind the 1st ...
Game Preview: Mets @ Yankees
213milesfromshea.metsblog.com 6/14/2009 — In what has already been a very interesting (to say the least) Subway Series so far, the Mets try to take the rubber game of this series as they play the Yankees for some afternoon baseball. Looking back at their last two series, the Mets were able to get the rubber game against the Nationals, ...
Help The New York Mets Ditch The Black...And Help Fight Cancer!
metspolice.com 6/7/2009 —
This is my favorite thing so far since the Mets Police started. One of the faithful, Carlo (who has written some of the best guest posts on the blog) has put his money where his mouth is.
So nobody likes cancer, and most people hate the black uniforms. Let's defeat Charlie ...
Inexcusable
metsfansforever.com 6/29/2009 — Author: Will Sommer As everybody knows by now the Mets were just swept by are hated rivals, the Yankees. I was embarrassed to be a Met fan this past weekend. I wasn't embarrassed because of the lack of offense. I was embarrassed because of their lack of fundamentals. In the opening game of ...
The Status of the Mets
theballclub.blogspot.com 6/29/2009 — Judging from this past weekend, it's not very good. I went against my general ballpark routine last night several different ways in the hopes that it might change the Mets luck and bring them a few runs last night. Some of my efforts might have been more for the preservation of my own sanity ...
No core, no problem for Mets
subwaysquawkers.blogspot.com 6/23/2009 — It's bad enough that the Mets are so riddled with injuries that Jose Reyes and trainer Ray Ramirez can get in an auto accident ON THE WAY TO THE HOSPITAL. Thankfully, nobody was hurt. But as the Star-Ledger reports , the Mets couldn't even give a straightforward account of this non-injury ...
