Don't mind WinPitcher too much - He believes that New York City is the center of the Universe.























...while every scientist knows that Philadelphia is actually the center of the Universe.

while every scientist knows that Philadelphia is actually the center of the Universe.

Similar to the aborigines, the population of Philadelphia has been studied for years by scientists in hopes of detecting advanced human behavior...in fact, the latest study ipublished in the July 2009 issue of the Scientific Journal has concluded that after much intensive study that such behavior has been proven to be "virtually non-existent."

The Mets bats are actually starting to show some signs of life. 18 runs, 3 doubles, 3 triples and 3 hr's in the past two games. That's pretty darn good considering how bad they have been playing.

Fat lady ain't singing yet no matter what Stevek tells ya!

Phillies acquire Cy Young winner Cliff Lee.

In other baseball news the Mets made a big announcement that they signed a new concession stand worker selling hot dogs to a long term contract. Congrats to the Mets on the signing.

I don't mind. I would be doing the same thing

In case you haven't noticed, the Mets are no longer down. Yes, the 3 game winning streak is a modest one at that but all streaks have to start somewhere. The team is actually coming together. The division may be out of the question but the wild card sure isn't.

OK, we won't but if he was playing for the Mets he would be 1-15.

That's it Keith! You're officially in timeout. Don't come out till the Phillies loose in the first round of the playoffs.

Second consecutive shutout by Mets pitching. 7 runs scored today. 5th win in a row. Wildcard here we come.

If i told ya once, i told ya a thousand times to stop sniffin' those gasoline fumes when filling up your lawnmower - it's giving you hallucinations...the Pets will not be in the playoffs.

Pets players will be home for the playoffs, counting the money they made that they didn't perform for...the epitome of mercenaries.

Same thing that happened to the Phillies winning streak. They lost.

Mets are only 10.5 games out - still plenty of time for them to get back into the pennant race with their eye on winning the World Series.

They don't need too win the pennant to make the playoffs. You see, there is this thing called the wild card which the Mets have a decent shot at.

Sillies don't make the WS....book it!!

Gonblott

Being a Met fan sure is tough.....

Where the heck is everyone!?

Reyes should be back by now.....

I only watch the games when Santana is pitching, even those games can be brutal if we don't score runs.

We need a powerful bat in the lineup and someone who can label himself as the leader.

Someone is going to get fired and I think Jerry will get the boot.

What do you guys think?

swartz1

I heard Delgado is due back soon....that should solve all the problems

the Mutz....

stevek

Mets are "only" 10 games out now...I'm getting worried.

WinPitcher

Saying hello from under the bed.......



Steve

joestalin

Mets would be best to keep F Fraud under the bed if they want to keep pace with the Nats.

grote15

Can't wait for the Sillies to get bounced in the first round...

stevek

I guess reality is setting in for Mets fans that even though it's only early August, their season is over...kinda remarkable considering the bookies had the Mets before the season as slight favorites to win the NL East.

stevek

PS: there are a few membership openings available for the Phillies fan club...but hurry...they're going fast.

WinPitcher

Remarkable?


lol yeah ok.



Steve

stevek

<< <i>Remarkable?

Steve >>



A pre-season favorite to win the NL East, out of the race by early August, and they were really out of it even before the All Star break - Yes, I'd call that "remarkable" meant in a negative way. When's the last time a pre-season favorite to win a division was done by the All Star break? - That sure doesn't happen often.

Hey, don't worry about it, the Mets will "get 'em" next year. LOL LOL LOL

joestalin

Sooner or later Santana will want to go to a winning team and then what? Mets are in some serious do do

WinPitcher

Steve the word you could have used was 'incredible'.


Then it would have made some sense.


It is not remarkable to be where they are seeing that even the replacements have gone down.

The syntax of my use of the word "remarkable" is correct. Don't ever question my grammar again.

stevek

And I don't wanna see my sports predictions ever questioned again.

lawnmowerman

The Mets are not out of it. The wildcard is still there for the taking.

Also, when the Phillies lose in the upcoming playoffs, I'm wondering which Phillie fan will be the first to cry about all the posts and threads I will make about it?

I know one or two of you guys will, I can see it now. However, it will be well deserved LOL

WinPitcher

Stalin will blame it on the umps.



I still disagree Steve, it ain't remarkable.


Steve

joestalin

umps can't call a 450 foot blast off the bat of Ryan Howard foul!

Lee shut down a potent Rocky Line Up today..it just isn't fair huh Met fan?

I just checked the wild card standings and the Mets wern't even on the front page!

lawnmowerman

<< <i>umps can't call a 450 foot blast off the bat of Ryan Howard foul! >>



True but you will find something else to make excuses about....you always do. Whether it's about the Yucs or the Sillies we can always count on some great excuses.

I believe during the WS last year you were crying about the game that was played in the rain.

Get your excuses ready for the Sillies post season. Maybe write them down so you have them ready when the get bounced?

One thing you are, is predictable LOL!
