Anthony DeRosa of Hot Foot forwards a pic of Shea’s destruction and appropriately titles it “Dunked”.
…i wonder how much they will get for that thing since men’s room signs are selling for $250…
Phillies pitcher J.C. Romero grew up a huge Mets fan according to the Press-Register.
Bleacher Report lists their twelve steps to the Mets recovery including:
Step One: Admitting we are powerless over Mike Francesa
Step Three: Making a decision to turn our will and our lives over to Johan Santana as we understand him
Lastly, Kenny Rogers has filed for free agency according to MLB Pro Blog.
…did anyone else just shiver…








it’s a coolatta fit for mo vaughn
uhh reeg u forgot to write #2
Just an excerpt
ok my bad you forgot #69 - never use rusty staub or mike vails name in vain !!
can we please never mention
francesa’s name here again?
thank you.
btw guys mlb trade rumors is predicting kevin gregg as the next marlin to be traded - and of course we are listed as possible suitors
i hope we dont sign kenny rodgers
the gambler ?? too many facelifts lol
The only Kenny Rogers I want to see at Citi Field is Kenny Roger’s Chicken Roasters… delicious
ILL TAKE POPEYES ANY DAY OF THE WEEK OVER KENNY ROGERS sorry bout the caps
Popeyes, eh? Where you from, son? Other side of the Mason-Dixon?
If the baseball Kenny Rogers ever had a facelift, his twig and berries would have to be yanked all the way up to cover his mammoth chin.
As for poultry, let’s go with (Ryan) Church’s Chicken.
You really don’t wanna eat kenny rogers roaster. I worked in one for 3 years in the late 90’s. Needless to say that all the roasters on long island have closed down
Well, my friend, you DO wanna eat Popeyes fried chicken; it is a slice of heaven right here on earth; I remember the days back in Florida….
Hey Matt, can ya talk to your friends at Citi Field; maybe a Popeyes counter?
Mets and spicey chicken; life don’t get no better….
Hey Omar; you awake?
I wanted the Mets to sign Romero when the Red Sox dumped him. It would have allowed them to put Schoenweis on the DL b/c of his nagging knee.
same here. he has a cool name and can pitch
please no rogers! remember him walking in the winning run against the braves?
Step #11 was HORRENDOUS. We give up F-Mart AND Niese For Jenks and Vazquez. there’s another two but I can’t remember. We apparenlty only have 24 people on our roster and we give up basically our whole farm system for Soaria, Jenks, Vazquez, and Bengie Molina. Seriously man, come on.
“Step One: Admitting we are powerless over Mike Francesa”
not true at all. if you stop listening to the show it will take a ratings hit and that will hurt him and the show especially with mr. russo gone.
lots of mets fans. stop listening.
I just had an interesting idea occur to me and I wasn’t sure if it was a good one or not, so here’s the idea and don’t bash me for suggesting it. It’s just a suggestion to think outside the box!
Castillo for Zito + Cain
We get the LHP and RHP we need to fill out the rotation. Everyone knows what they are getting with Cain, and Zito would be one very expensive reclamation project financed by Cain’s cheapness and offset by Castillo leaving 3 years early. But Zito could be our #5 while he gets his head right again and if/when he did, he’d make a killer rotation along with the others.
So what do you all think?
Friends dont let friends drink and post
No question that your idea is creative. However, I don’t think the Giants are so desperate A. for a 2nd baseman, and B. to get rid of Zito that they would ship Cain off to accomplish these things. I think they have multiple cheap controllable options for their middle infield in their system.
I certainly understand the frustration with and desire to get rid of Castillo, but I think realistically that he’s not going anywhere unless/until he showcases an ability to play adequately, and given that he’ll be another year removed from knee surgery and given that the Mets in house competition is so paltry, I believe he’ll get that chance in Queens in ‘09.
i would do that in a second if i were the mets…but it wouldnt happen
maybe castillo for zito straight up they would do, but for cain you’d have to toss in 2-3 top prospects.
Well of course they would do Zito for Cain straight up, they realize they made one of the biggest contractual mistakes of all time in signing Zito to that gargantuan contract. The idea is that Cain would unburden them of Zito’s contract. Would they be willing to to give up Cain in order to be rid of Zito’s contract? (7 years, 126M) so approximately 6 years, 108M remaining. Throwing in Castillo was meant to reduce the millions by 18M, so it would in reality be 6 years, 90M for Zito, plus Cain. I just don’t see us adding any meaningful prospects, because this deal is about $$ and the Giants not paying it anymore and us taking Cain to take over that obligation on their behalf.
I guess what I’m saying is:
Is this possible? Is it even a good idea? I don’t know if it’s realistic or not, or even if I like the idea, I’m just throwing it out there to see if it floats or not.
Theyll never give up a great young pitcher to get rid of a mistake. Its worth it for them to keep paying Zito if it means keeping Cain on the roster.
That said, I would trade Castillo straight up for Zito. I hate castillo that much.
“You go through two seasons that we’ve been through the last couple years and you’re going to need a little bit of a facelift,” Wright said Wednesday.
is that secret code for sign Kenny Rogers again?
i met francesa and guys he IS a jerk, he acted like he was this big celebrity…. i wanted to spit on the punch and give him the first drink!!! he’s a frantic yankee fan and that’s all he knows, without the yankees he got nothing to talk about, when i heard he wanted the mets to break the core i almost pis-sed my pantss because i realize how jealous he was not to have somebody like reyes or wright in the future..
