Phillies in 5 Applesauce - Rollins makes another prediction, Figgins price tag, sex for WS tickets

Sorry this is so late. Having computer and law-school related issues. Enjoy. 

Star-divide

Meet the Mets

Blue and Orange puts compares the 2007 & 2008 Mets with the division champion Phillies from those years. Just in case you wanted to start banging your head against a wall again.

If you were wondering, it would probably cost the Mets $50 million for 5 years to get Chone Figgins.

Around the NL East

Leave it to Jimmy Rollins to make predictions

The Philadelphia Daily News has declared the Phillies to be world champions. Good, does that mean I don't have to watch now?

At least Phillie fans REALLY want to go to the World Series games.

The one area where the Yankees will have a huge advantage: left handed pitching against the Phillie lineup.

The Marlins have named Randy St. Claire as their new pitching coach.

Around MLB

Too bad I don't speak Spanish, because Ozzie Guillen as a broadcaster sounds amazing.

The Yankees have added Brian Bruney and Eric Hinske to their roster and have sent Freddy Guzman and Francisco Cervilli down.

Houston's new manager: Boston bench coach Brad Mills.

Yeah, not much going on...

What kind of person would actually answer an add for sex with a 43-year-old grad student with kids, in exchange for World Series tickets. Asides for, maybe, Steve Phillips? Ugh…

A cop, apparently.

Let me rephrase:

What kind of person would actually answer an add for sex with a 43-year-old grad student with kids, in exchange for World Series tickets, without intent to arrest said individual?

Yeah the cops

Answered the thing to give her a summons.

Lets see……..if I had a tcket and a Phillie fan wanted the tickets that bad what would I do?

I guess I would start by asking her if she has ever seen the “two girls and on cup” Youtube.

not worth the tickets.

Right

I’d rather keep the tickets.

That's awesome

People really are crazy. Seriously? Sex for World Series tickets? I wonder what kind of fan would really give up World Series tickets for sex with a 43-year-old woman. And, how hot would she have to be for you to think about parting with the tickets? 23?

The whole thing is crazy. Also, check out some great Mets Memorabilia from my client, Steiner Sports. Or you could continue surfing the net for 43-year-old grad students.

wow

this was really well disguised spam

"[The Giants] beat us down. We were beat by a grown-man team, a team we want to be like one day. They came in here and took it to us. Out-manned us, out-gunned us. ... It wasn't even close." - Raheem Morris, 9/27/09

Omar's off-season contract strategy.  (Get it?)
(Yes, I'm having too much fun with GraphJam)
I'm doing a little study on the NL East and thought I'd share an interesting little tidbit.  To all of the self-loathing Mets fans/lazy 'MLB insiders' and journalistic parrots who have 1) Condemned the entire Mets organization as a joke 2) Written off this core's impressive run to date and 3) Deified the Phillies as unstoppable juggernauts w/ no chance to lose this division:

Yes, those wins are weighted towards '06-'07 and yes, the Phillies' are more recent but the fact remains that no other team in that span can even come close to the Mets total of days in first place, which should be garnering a lot more respect than it has.  If only because we still have nearly the same core in place that has clearly had a lot of success and health-willing can very easily do so again in 2010.
