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.

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.

That WAR comparison made me puke my lunch.

I see your point

The rotation and bullpen comps made my stomach turn.

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.
