I can't believe it will be 20 years since a Mets world championship next year. What has happened to our beloved team? Tom Glavine was our second best pitcher and he'll be 40 next year! Carlos Beltran was an all time great in the playoffs last year as an Astro - this year as a Met he was mediocre.
I think I know the missing ingredient - we need a player with a name like Mookie. How can anyone lose with a Mookie on their team? I know they've tried by getting a Kazuo and a Shingo but we really need a Mookie. Or maybe a Tug.

We almost had a Coco Crisp, but miss all the Bulls of the past. Remember Greg the Bull Luzinski or Leon the Bull Durham? One of my favorites was a lousy Cub pitcher named George "the Heat" Riley. Unfortunately, his legendary fast ball was no where to be found. I'm still puzzled by Tom Paciorek's nickname of "wimpy". I still think the best label was Dick Pole, but wait, that was his real name. Too bad his brother Harry only made it to triple A.
How about Mark the Bird Fidrych? There was an apt nickname. I think the new Pistons coach should be nicknamed Flip the Bird Saunders.
I've always liked Gary "the Rat" Gaetti or how about the Crime Dog, Fred McGriff. Unfortunately, on occasions, some strange ones slip by, like "Penis" Lowrey. Imagine having to go through life with a moniker like that. Almost makes Harry Caray seem palatable.
I think he played around the same time as Stubby Overmire. Coincidence? I think not. I wonder if they were ever teammates of Big Dick Radatz.
Radatz? Sounds like something in my lunch salad. Speaking of Dicks, almost as bad as Dick "Dirt" Tidrow
I think you should give up on those boring salads and have yourself a hot pudge sundae.
what r u guys talking about? what about the Mets? Mets rule!!!!!!! world series champes in 2006.
Guess Fred Merkle isn't the only "bonehead"
I think that Met's guy should go to India and become a Yogi.
Hey, I actually think I "caught" that one! You're so rye! I think he's a Berra of a guy.
You had a ball with that one. How come you're posting in the morning? Are you on strike? If you're that unhappy, maybe you just walk.
I won't balk at your suggestion, but came close to either splitting or giving your the finger, but fast!
Stop your shouting. You're pitch is a little off. I don't know why you go so wild. I hope this unseemly episode of yours has finally passed.
I think I got you in a corner, and you're knuckling under and sinking fast. In fact, I think I'll give you the ol' brushoff.
