the Braves
I don’t care if they’re having their worst season since 1990, they still scare me, and it would be just like them to break the Mets balls in this series.

Especially now that we've lost Wagner.
Man, I just do not feel good about our chances, not with this pen.

make Pedro the closer
I’m serious. He could probably be a lights-out closer.
Anyway, it’s good to start with Ollie, as he’s been so good of late, and he eats the Braves alive.

can his body do it though
that is the question. I think a starter ends up in the pen. I vote for Maine.

great pic!
for the 1st time in a long time, I feel positive about the METS. Maybe that’s what a winning streak against sub par opponents will do for you.
when you say “lost Wagner”, what exactly do you mean? I only know about him being on the 15 day DL. has something else happened?

more inflammation in his elbow tendon
Basically, he’s not getting better, and the elbow is probably the last place you want to have lasting inflammation. He’s not coming back anytime soon.

well, i guess this forces our hand (to go out and buy someone...is there anyone left to buy?)
we’re not going to depend on HEILMAN to be our closer if we make the playoffs are we?

Not really anyone to buy
Maybe Sherrill, Fuentes, or Cordero. But if we wanted/were able to acquire at least one of them, we probably already would have. They all would cost far more than we could afford to pay.

Not quite
It’s a home run derby. Only homers count, no roster changes allowed. $10 buy-in. Winner gets 60, 2nd place 25, 3rd gets 10% and 4th gets 5%. Last place gets his money back. There’s over 140 players. Last week, I cracked the top 10 for the first time (been right up there all season long) despite having Hafner. Also, A-Rod and Soriano have missed time. Since Lee’s out for the season, I’m probably not landing a top 4 spot.

Gymnastics and figure skating are good examples of the “anything with subjective scoring isn’t a sport” rule
by JoshNY on Aug 19, 2008 9:35 PM EDT up reply actions 0 recs
Yes, subjective scoring is the first rule.
Physical exertion is the second. I think that a real sport should also require direct competition between the participants. You want to make figure skating interesting? Put 2 or 3 of them on the ice at once.
by BobbyV_Incognito on Aug 19, 2008 9:36 PM EDT up reply actions 0 recs
hmm
what defines “direct competition”? is speed skating direct competition?
by JoshNY on Aug 19, 2008 9:37 PM EDT up reply actions 0 recs
I'd define it as competing directly against the other player/team.
Not taking turns on the field.

by Catsmeat Potter-Pirbright on Aug 19, 2008 9:35 PM EDT up reply actions 0 recs
Defining a sport
My take:
1. Completely objective scoring. You must be able to say definitively that one side won or lost.
2. Physical exertion is a must. You can’t call it a sport if it’s not tiring to play. This is really what knocks golf out, in my opinion. Tiger Woods doesn’t carry his own bag.
3. Competitors or teams play directly against each other. Like I said above, they can’t take turns on the field.
I suppose there’s more rules, but those are the basics.

but the fact that the second player in the deal is hot garbage combined with the injury and the fact that Milledge is hitting better makes it look bad

I’m not defending the trade, because the Mets SHOULD have known that A) Schneider can’t hit and B) Milledge was likely to improve
by JoshNY on Aug 19, 2008 9:58 PM EDT up reply actions 0 recs
Long-term, deal likely sucks
We’re losing Milledge’s prime for the end of Church’s. Schneider’s a non-factor. Not getting any playing time from Church pretty much swings the deal in the Nationals’ favor. Maybe it’ll look better next year, but Milledge will improve more by then than either of our guys.
