SIGN MANNY!!!!!
SIGN CHOO CHOO COLEMAN!!!
SIGN RUSTY STAUB!!!!!
lol sorry but my time has come and gone – but mmmmm love my ribs lol
Freddy and Jeff should open a Rusty’s Restaurant in the new park, and it can go right next to Mo Vaughn’s Deli. Of course, Mo’s will always be closed, as he will generally eat all of the inventory…..
BTW, checked out Stadium Page–wow, cannot believe it is really gone…surreal is right.
is there a falcones falafel bar also lol – i know i know he’s italian lol
Let’s hold a séance and sign Harry Chiti.
or danny frisella – he was left handed lol
Looks Beautiful. Wish I was there in the warmth instead of the cold here in Jersey.
agreed but the warmer days are just around the corner
I was thinking the same thing. Looks fantastic.
i like putz man – i mean i think he can be like a more dominating version of turk wendell – hey kong u did time in seatle is he eccentric?? btw i watched man vs foos and they were at the red brick grill or something like that – the burgers made my mouth water lol
*food
I liked Turk, but JJ blows him away….high, rising fastballs in the mid-to-upper 90s, and then splitters which sink crazily too…if he is 100% healthy, and I am sorry for those who have seen me write this 849 times, he is going to be as good or better than KRod and an instant crowd favorite…he is kind of nutty, as evidenced by him getting Kevin Burkhardt in the face with a pie on TV during the Hot Stove show last week…he is big and strong, throws serious smoke, is fearless, has a serious sense of humor, and is PERFECT for this team.
And it must have been Red Mill Burgers! They are awesome, and I lived about a mile from the one in Phinney Ridge in Seattle and went there a good number of times…really, really good burgers…..
very cool man – btw what ever happened to kim thayell after soundgarden – an another thing FORCED ENTRY SHOULD REFORM !!! and on that note – mingus rules lol
First off, Mingus most certainly rules….we listen to him all the time, and sell lots of charts of his tunes…ever see the film Mingus 68/Mingus in Greenwich Village? Absolutely nutty…he is in his apartment, completely surrounded by piles of everything you can imagine, drinking a gallon jug of wine, and playing with a rifle, while talking to an interviewer…at the end, he gets evicted, and the lasts scenes are the police taking him away…crazy, and vintage Mingus.
Good question about Kim Thayil—-all I know is that he has played on tracks for the Presidents and Dave Grohl, but I do not think he has a serious/permanent gig. He and Matt Cameron were kind of more serious guys and less rock star/partier types than a lot of the other Seattle bands…I would guess Kim probably enjoys life, and travels, and enjoys being a wealthy late-40ish retiree.
One funny thing about him is he would appear in the Seattle comedy show Almost Live, and they had this segment called The Lame List, where Kim and the singer from Panic and other metal guys would all listen to an announcer saying a list of things, and them shout lame and shake their hair in unison….
yeah mingus’ final days were tragic and thayell was a underrated guitarist – just surprised that he quit the buissness altogether – while his partner cornell truely sold out and i remember that show on comedy central !!!- bill nye was in it my friends always laughed at the sluggy films – plus joe satriani’s surfin with the alien was the opening theme to the show
Bill Nye the Science Guy! And Mind Your Manners With Billy Kwan was good too….
I am out for a while today Rusty, and my bro and I are going to a music conference in Chicago this week, so if you don’t see me answering you, it is just because I will have little spare time this week on the net….
But have a great week, and JJ will be our favorite Met very soon!!
no prob say hi to albert king and the guys in zeotrope and cyclone temple lol
That third guy from the left? Shoulder’s flying WAY open. Come on, get your head out of your sphincter, third guy!
was that victor zambrano or jose liMA?? lol
BTW JUST WENT TO STADIUM PAGE AND THE HAD RECENT VIDEO FROM YESTERDAYS DEMOLITION – DAMNED THAT IS SO SUREAL – sorry bout the caps
i cant find a putz or murphy jersey anywhere on the mets.com site – yet they still have loduca and wagner jersey’s there!!- btw no k-rod yet either
Cant you just go MLB.com and personalize a jersey? Just put on Rodriguez and # 75 Or even make it your own and put K ROD.
i know pmf – im just tired of the mets putting out only the big star jersey’s – i want to go in and buy a murphy jersy or a putz jersey or a green jersey at modells or werever for 79- 99 buck ya know what im sayin !! lol
Reyes batting third is wrong.
1)2B – Luis Castillo
2)SS – Jose Reyes
3)3B – David Wright
4)1B – Carlos Delgado
5)CF – Carlos Beltran
6)RF – Ryan Church
7)C – Ramon Castro or LF – Tatis
8)LF – Daniel Murphy or C – Schneider
We have arguably the best lead off hitter in the game, and because we have no Manny he should bat second….as I sit here listening to Manuel De Falla’s – La Vida Breve….I should be listening to cheers resounding through out the tri-state area of Manny is a Ny Met.
look i am happy with the way my team in constructed right now – and if the lf platoon fizzles – then you have the trade deadline to get a carlos lee or a holliday – but ill tell u something – i’d be happy with murph and the magic tones at 1b and f-mart in lf (if ready) next season – we dont always gotta go after the big name f.a’s some times the answer is down on the farm
I totally agree Rusty….if FMart and the Magic Tone work out, then our core could include Reyes, Wright, FMart, Pelf, and Murph, all Met homeboys.
After all, the 4 Yank title teams were anchored by homegrown guys too, Jeter, Bernie, Posada, Mariano, and Pettitte….that is a great way to go.
The Mets don’t have enough offense with Delgado in the line-up. He’s not going to be around much longer, and we need his 38 home run bat in the line-up. Time runs nigh, they need a bat and they have everything in place. The TIME IS NOW. MAKE A MOVE!!!!
so true – and it can allow us to go after oswalt or halladay in a trade – (so we can afford their contracts) if need be – cuz i dont think garcia nor redding will be in this rotation next year
are you clinically retarded? What makes you think we’re going to get Halladay or Oswalt?! Seriously, my God man….you’re like a retard.
Hey AnotherTypical/Jerk–with what you have been posting on here the last couple of weeks, including 5-team, 84 player trades which you apaprently take seriously, PLEASE do not call others retards, especially Rusty, one of the coolest and best contributors on here…
Seriously man, stick to typing SIGNMANNY
and leave the insults to others….
I was leaving the insults to others…
clinically retarded lol madoff if you didnt have a hard-on you wouldnt have a friend
That’s why I stay hard…
ok we have our first raven reference (heavy metal band from new castle u.k from the 80’s)
To quote the Raven….On and on and on and on….
wow we have something in common madoff lol – my friend managed raven in the 80’s
yeah, he did a bang up job….
not his fault that atlantic records wanted a more commercial album then after wacko left they tried to go heavy again on nothing exceeds like excess – but the hardcore loyal fans were gone – met the gallagher bros – nice gus – and their drummer was in pentagram
Would you trust the safety of your child on an if?
Holliday isn’t going anywhere, and if he did it’d cost an arm and leg…kiss Fernando Martinez goodbye. Carlos Lee costs 18 million per, and would cost prospects to get. I feel Lee is somewhat a caustic personality, and not the easy going/chemistry inducing type Manny is. I’m glad you’re in a kissing mood, because you’re getting cked.
madoff methinks u be fi-ya m-ini-a-y-a
I’ve never used the handle fiya minaya or any derivative….
“the easy going/chemistry inducing type Manny is”
And you are mocking the thoughts of others and calling OTHERS retards??
WOW!
lol, hmmm….easily excitable and easily astonished…DO YOU WANT TO GO PET THE RABBITS GEORGE!!??
Manny’s bat is titanic no doubt, but he brings a varied list of intangibles along with him…amongst those a$$ets in my opinion is his jocund frivolity….he can live and let live…all while taking care of business on the field…
nice of mice and men reference madoff – i wouldnt take you as a steinbeck kinda guy – more like jackie collins
ignore him kong – he is the rey ordonez of this site – always quick with a commest (rey with his hands – but a lack of power with his mouth – rey with the bat ) lol
and I take you and brock as Brokeback mountain types of “guys”…..
lol that was funny madoff more power to you – but we all know the frank zappa song “bobby brown goes down ” was written for you “i can take about a hour on the tower of power as long as i gets a little golden shower” u like that doncha caligula
see, I was just joking, but now that you’ve confirmed, you sicken me. Go root for the yankays, they love people like you…lol, know what I just realized? No matter what you call your type, it’s considered an insult…..know why? Because it’s a disgrace…in the literal sense.
what cuz im a FRANK ZAPPA FAN i cant be a die hard mets fans – just get into yer a-rod jammies and go nitey nite – its time for yer nap gargantua – and one more thing STOP BREATHING IN MY CUP!!! (CLA$$IC bugs bunny)
no, because you’re a fruit loop, brokeback mountain queen….
lol you j edgar hoover in a blue dress s.o.b
yeah ok Liberace….were you the one who raped Roberto Alomar in Mexico and gave him AIDS?
lol, you and Brock RAPED ROBERTO ALOMAR!!
I have a recording of Victoria de los Ángeles singing the role of Salud. I also have her singing the role of Cio-Cio San in Butterfly. Although my favorite Cio-Cio San is sung by Leontyne Price. What the h-e-l-l am I writing here? :)

SUNDAY: Jayson Stark says that a reunion between the two sides is becoming more likely. He quotes Braves GM Frank Wren as saying:
“I think we’ve made some progress,” GM Frank Wren told ESPN.com Sunday. “I think there’s a true desire on both parties to get something done.”
- let glavine pitch for the egg in shoe braves – he’ll be retired by may lol
btw guys daily news had a great where are they now article with joel youngblood – damn that guy was intense – its funny back then a everyday player for us was a super sub on most other teams lol
“Regular player for us… supersub on other teams”?

(ZING! S*GN M*NNY AND SHEETS!)
rotfl – no!!!! leitermilner – not you also -damn this is getting to be like that movie slither or even night of the creeps lol

i cant wait to hear him come out to thunderstruck for the first time – the joint will be rockin ( also if we made it to the w.s citi will shake)!! also im gonna throw this out there instead of takin care of buisness after home wins howz about shoot em down by twisted sister or shake yer foundations by ac/dc – also party hard by andrew wk before the game
I heard Fred Wilpon wants In The Mood by Glenn Miller. :)
hey i just noticed matt put the oranges back up in honor of spring training – way to go matt!!!
guys its time to cede the n.l east once again to the phiths
as per mlbtr
Scott Lauber reports that the Phillies have signed Miguel Cairo to a minor-league deal with an invite to Spring Training.
Cairo, 34, hit .249/.316/.330 last year for the Mariners. He can serve as a back-up at nearly any position the Phillies could need if he makes the team. Cairo saw time at all four infield positions, left field, and right field in 2008.
ITS OVER JOHNNY !!! ITS OVER !!! lol
good afternoon boyz and girls its time for the lazy sunday edition of “this day in mets infamy with rusty” so here we go
first off happy b-day to reliever Chuck Estrada (1938)
Barry Jones (1963) – played for us in 92 but was abducted by bobby jones – never to been seen again
Transactions:
San Diego Padres signed Bobby Jones of the New York Mets free agent on February 15, 2001. and he played 2 more years til retireing – also best under the radar pitcher since ed lynch
Detroit Tigers signed Vic Darensbourg of the New York Mets free agent on February 15, 2005. who?
New York Mets signed free agent Brady Clark on February 15, 2008. he played a couple of games for us untill he was suc-ked into the black hole that also claimed d.j.dozer and herm willingham
I am sure Al Shirley and Robert Stratton are down in that black hole, striking out frequently.
Al Shirley, in A ball, once struck out 208 times in 487 plate appearances!!
as per mlbtr guys
Here’s something I can’t believe I’m typing… can Dennis “Oil Can” Boyd make a Major League comeback at age 49? Oil Can hasn’t pitched since 1991, but claims his velocity is back up in the low 90s, and his curveball is back to form. He’s always dreamt of carrying on Satchel Paige’s legend and pitching into his 60s. Boyd’s quote:
“”I have nothing to lose, and all a major league team has to lose is 15 minutes,” said Boyd. “Give me 15 minutes and I’ll show I can still pitch. That’s all I want.”
Boyd threw at the Red Sox fantasy camp, and former catcher Mike Stanley said that Oil Can’s stuff is the same as it was 18 years ago, and his pa$$ion hasn’t died down one bit.
Certainly an interesting story, but can he live up to his word?
anyone think omars listening??? lol
don’t call me shirley btw kingy u like to watch gladiator movies??
I sure do, and I also have spent time in a Turkish prison….
ohhh billy!!!
Does a bear poop in the woods?
I also heard that, in Mike Stanley’s professional catching opinion, 49-year-old Oil Can could punch out Barfield and Balboni 3 times a game and still have enough gas left over to fill his DeLorean.
Omar would listen if he was hispanic. jkjk had to say it
the bear comment was intended as a reply to the is Omar interested in Boyd question….
i figured as much – but hey at least we traded one hernandez for the newer version – 1 has 99,000 miles on the odometer while the other one has 69,000 lol
lol back to the future time
ment to post “Omar would listen if he was hispanic. jkjk had to say it” under rusty’s oil can comment
