[beng]

LMFAO ...in for the hilarity

[GS Audio]

Wow.....completely new thread? Guess this should coincide with the new Sandy & Terry era.

[beng]

Yankees fans to Mets fans ratio in this thread = 2:1

Thats just sad

[GS Audio]

Nah Beng......its 3:2.......you forgot the 2 guys in the photo.

[GT Eye]

Now if one of the aces gets injurred.....

I'm liking Duda as a potential power bat off the bench

Bay has been swinging the bat well - history dictates that he follows bad years with monster years. We shall see

Beltran injured again... Perez sucks and needs to be cut.

Sub'd to this thread.

Same $hit, different year....sigh

I think we have a better chance of seeing George Costanza become the next Director of Mets Scouting before we see this franchise return to its former glory. (Sorry, I'm watching an episode of Seinfeld right now)

I can only hope Irving Picard prevails in his lawsuit. I generally loathe trial attorneys but I can find a place in my heart for Picard as our interests are aligned, albeit indirectly, in this one.

We follow the Mets to watch them win. They will not win with the Wilpons. It's time for new blood and less distraction. Get the Wilpons as far away from this team as possible.

I hate going to bed angry!

The empire state is lit up in blue and orange in honor of the Kid tonight

[BMBLE B]

It seems ironic that one of the true men of baseball was nicknamed the "kid".

Goodbye Gary, we will all miss you

I hope the Mets wear his number on their uni's this year.

Games will be on soon... Johan having some successful bullpens. Feels like its been a decade since he pitched. What are your expectations for him in 2012?

Cy Young of course!

If he starts 25 I'll be amped and hopefully he can be 75% of what he was before this injury.

Itll be nice to see him on the mound again. Couple more days til some games fellas. David Wright says... Mets shouldnt come into the season w an underdog mind set and I agree. Gotta play the games... You never know

[BMBLE B]

Last Sunday was the last Sunday without a baseball game until November.

I was thinking about bumping the Mets thread but god damn if talkin about the Mets isnt just a bummer nowadays

- David Wright: Hurt his oblique
- Ike Davis: Valley Fever (Wtf? )
- Mets told to pay $83mm in Madoff suit and could face another $300mm in penalties after trial
- Lenny Dykstra gets 3 years in robbery case

1) For the sake of Mets, and hopefully for David, this is just a day-to-day issue.

2) Ike doesn't think he has it.

3) Mets are only on the hook for a little over $1m right now. The judge doesn't feel Picard could prevail if and when this gets to trial for additional $$$. We'll see how this plays out.

4)
