So you'll trash Piazza for unfounded steroid rumors, but celebrate a dope fiend who threw away his career and our followup WS championships? Who recovered briefy in time to win a WS against us and throw a no-hitter for the Yankees? Do you even like the Mets?

Piazza did the right thing keeping his cool and not getting thrown out of the game. The ump should have had a pair and tossed Clemens.

Piazza is the greatest position player we've ever had, and it's not his fault we didn't win a WS on his watch. There has been nothing but rumor and innuendo on the PED front. I give him every benefit of the doubt.

Having Namath there only would have been funny if he hit the open bar during the game and slobbered all over Julie McDonald.

Now your ticking me off. I am not gay, and as far as I know no one else on here is. Does that make you instantly believe that if you make fun about a certain "race" or group of any sort no one will be ticked off or offended by it? Im not a fan of having people banned off this website, but you sir have crossed the line into pure predjudice. You wont be on here long.

I so would love to see that. If anyone can recall as my memories a bit foggy on this but I seem to remember Grote getting thrown out of a game because he dipped his shoulder and let a fastball plunk the ump once when he wasn't getting the calls he felt his pitcher deserved. Great defensive backstop.

Seaver throwing to Piazza symbolizes only Mets pitcher in HOF throwing to only Met catcher to be in HOF.

I haven't had time to look through all of the other posts, but just for my part I like the idea of Seaver throwing it to Piazza. I wasn't born yet when Seaver pitched for the Mets but I obviously know what a big part of the team and franchise he was…and Piazza was the face of our franchise for the time he was here. It works out well for me.
