Looking forward to this season!

I was sitting around doing crack with my friend Unruly the other day, (pictured below), and we both decided that we couldn't wait until March 31st (yes, fucking March) when we can watch regular season Mets game on TV again.


After we decided that, we went out and robbed some old jewish people (we were on crack!)
Seriously though, we have have robbed them sober. No, seriously for real, I cannot wait until the Mets start kicking ass again this year. I want to see the following things happen this season:
1. Santana wins 19 games and a CY Young (along with an NLCS MVP).
2. Jose Reyes hit over .300 with 80SBs and takes a rest a few days every month to stay fresh.
3. Carlos Delgado hit a solid .285 with 35 HRs and over 100 RBIs.
4. Beltran hit consistently all year long and do his thing in the field.
5. Moises get 600 ABs.
6. Wagner only blows 4 saves and they are before Sept. 1, 2008.
7. Pedro wins at least 15 games, along with OP and Maine.
8. Sanchez doesn't get in any cabs and pitches like he did prior to that stupid injury.
9. El Duque takes his usual month or three off during the season and gets back raring to go before Sept. 1.
10. D. Wright wins the NL MVP and WS MVP in a Mets win.
These are just a few of my wishes, others include solid play by the new additions to the team (Schneider (please hit at least .260!) and Church), Castillo doing well at 2B, and Endy doing what Endy does.
We'll see what happens, but either way I'm in! I can't wait to be there on Opening Day! (Which hopefully will happen if my boss comes through, and he usually does!)
GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO METS!!!!!!!!!!

Mooks back from the dead...

This post is from an email I got from Mooks, who, believe it or not, is still out there...

From the newsday.com With all of this early trash-talking between Carlos Beltran and Jimmy Rollins, as well as the Mets and Phillies, it's starting to sound as if these two teams are vying for the WBO title rather than the National League East crown.
According to a report by ESPN's Jayson Stark, a few of Rollins' Philly teammates have been privately fuming about Beltran's comments and even suggested to Stark that "there will be a brawl this year."
Billy Wagner said, "If one of their little 25-year-olds wants to come out and whip my ass, they can brag that they whipped a 37-year-old man's ass. Well, good for them. It's always good to play that underdog role. If they come out there, though, there's two things that could happen. I'm pretty sure they're going to whip my ass. But what if I get a shot in? What if? Then you just got your ass whipped on national TV by the littlest guy in baseball, so think of that 'What if?'"
When a reporter told Randolph that the Phillies could be itching for a brawl this season, the manager loved it. "Is that right? That's what I'm talking about," Randolph said. "I didn't hear that and I didn't see that, but that's how you build a rivalry.


Only 37 & 1/2 days left until Opening Day...it can't come a day sooner. Let's get it on! PS - The Phillies are a bunch of pansies. I don't remember any of the Mets threatening a fight last year when Rollins opened his pie hole. Maybe they should have, I don't know. But the Philthies better concern themselves with the fact that their best pitcher is Brett Myers (who can only beat up his wife), their first baseman has rocks for hands and ten million more reasons to have that extra cheeseburger before a long day in the sun, & Brad Pujols, uh I mean Lidge is their closer. I'll give them Utley & Rollins. Those guys can play (although you could cut their numbers in half at Shea...ala Rollins never hit more than 8 home runs until they moved into CBP). Maybe we should sign Clemens just so he can throw one pitch (although it'll probably cost a pro-rated salary of 15 million). One pitch, opening day right between the blades...I don't think Rollins would say too much after that...
PSS - All jokes about Shawn Estes are acceptable at this point in time... PSSS - Red is for sissies and commies...
