In a post to the Daily News, Filip Bondy believes that this current 
Mets-Phillies rivalry is starting to look like the Mets old rivalry with the Braves.
At NYYStadiumInsider, they feature a video clip that may get David Cone in a bit of trouble for comments he made during a recent YES broadcast.
To watch Fran Healy give his opinion of the Mets, go here, and to watch a three-year-old Mets fan sing Meet the Mets, click here.
Lastly, as you can see at Observations of an American Living in NYC, if you go to a game at Shea, be sure to stay awake.
…thanks to brian d for that last link, which is hilarious…
Fran Healy, kinda miss that dude.
Too cute.
That little girl is my sister!
She’s more eloquent than Healy!
just kidding, just kidding
I like Cone for the same reason I like Mex: never afraid to say what’s on his mind.
I don’t see this as being a big deal. Seems to me he meant to say jerked “around”, and just flubbed it. He continued on venting his frustration at how Kennedy was being treated, and the game went on.
Ya wanna say that he went on a bit too long? Ya wanna say that he made too big a deal out of it? I’ll buy that. But to kill him for saying “jerked off” rather than jerked around is silly.
Yum… canned corn…
Haha…My friend who is a Yankee fan sent me that clip of David Cone yesterday……Maybe we should try that out on Heilman?
Yea, maybe it will relax him a bit more when he’s on the mound….ugh, I just threw up in my mouth a lil bit.
are you saying you want to jerk off heilman?
NickAA33 is probably eliot spitzer
I haven’t read it yet, but I can just bet that Bondy hopes the Met-Philly rivalry is like the Met-Brave rivalry: it’ll give him an excuse to write another piece on how the Mets suck and heaven is in the Yankee Stadium bleachers…
I never read Bondy’s Mets articles, because I know he’s an obnoxious Yankee fan. In fact, I don’t read most sports columnists anymore, because the truth is they don’t know any more than we do about the team and their opinions are no better than ours.
I look for results and draw my own conclusions about what I see.
Luckily it was Kennedy that got “jerked off” and not Wang.
Mets/Braves was never a rivalry. The Mets never won.
You’re right. Only the Mets thought it was a rivalry. The Braves never did, and probably still don’t.
You’re going to see the Mets/Braves rivalry this year.
Amazing that Cone said that, especially given his history of…well, THAT…in the bullpen, no less.
I guess it shows how young the fans are who frequent this blog that you were the only one who remembers Cone’s infamous incident in the bullpen. It was the first thing that came to mind after hearing what he said on YES. What a crazy bunch those Mets were!
Anyone who is a Mets fan and is maybe 35 and over, will remember the days when the Mets shared the division with the Chicago Cubs and St. Louis Cardinals. I miss having them in the same division as the Mets.
In the mid to late 80’s there were some good division races with the Cubs and Cards. And a decent rivalry. And both those franchises have such rich histories (even if a losing one in the Cubs case) and terrific fan bases. Since divisional re-alignment playing those teams just hasn’t been the same.
It was nice too to have 2 great cities like NYC and Chicago playing in the same division playing each other 18 times a year…. Plus I miss the Mets playing in Wrigley Field 9 games every year with daytime games as well. Ahh the old days when I was young(er)!
I live in CHI. And I am incredibly pissed that my Mets are playing 2 games at Wrigley this year.
2 PHUKING GAMES!!! You kidding me?
I see they are raising that little girl right. I sent a link to my brother so he takes a hint with his two toddlers.
I would rather see watch a 3 year old give his opinion of the Mets, and watch Fran Healy sing Meet the Mets.
Probably learn more.
