Thursday Applesauce

I have never stepped foot in Yankee Stadium despite many invites, I don’t plan on every going to this one so I don’t really care about the New Highlanders Stadium.

One exception, would be the world series clinching Game 4 at the new stadium. Mets players/fans celebrating a championship on highlander turf is too good to miss.

We’re going to have a freakingShake Shack? Wow, between that and the Belgian Fries, I may put on a few pounds if I go to too many games this season.

I was not aware that that was how you pronounced “Thole”

Behold The Mo-Licious

I prefer to remember Mo Vaughn for this night (can’t find video unfortunately).

“uh, hello deli workers, what am i supposed to dunk this thing in?”

this made me laugh out loud in class. Thanks…

WE WANT THE STRAWBERRY MILKSHAKE NOT THE GLASS OF CLUB SODA

A thread that concerns food. Dear god I got the best laugh out of this, this morning. Well done Ken! Btw, the keyboards where I work are absolutely disgusting. My co-worker turned his keyboard upside down and started slapping it on the back because a key was stuck. Needless to say, numerous articles of detritus spilled forth from its hold. The worst of which was chewed up fingernail portions. (I $hit you not).

I do a thorough hand washing about four times a day.

It’s pretty clear that A-Rod is not savvy with the media. That is a given. But, were the steroids this cousin’s idea? I highly doubt that this cousin is some steroid mastermind nor can I imagine that he was the one putting the steroid idea in A-Rod’s head. I’m no A-Rod fan, but I actually see this as him staying loyal to his friend and family member who is not getting paid $20 million/year to deal with the media.

Fair enough. You’re probably right. Someone needs to get him a competent PR person.

That’s one angry bunch of fans. You’d hardly think they won the Series last year.

(While we’re here: Blue and orange? You’re supposed to be a Major League Baseball franchise, not fucking Sea World.)

While we’re here: Red??! What is this, a whorehouse?

All Mets fans break out their Yankees caps in October.

I would sooner hear the death rattle of my only child than wear a Yankees hat.

Mr. Met, New York’s big-headed mascot, looks like a gum ball on steroids. The fact that there are Mets fans who refer to that cross-eyed goon as “beloved” does not speak well for their instincts or intelligence.

Since we’re talking about mascots, what in the fucking holy hell is the Phillie Phanatic supposed to be? How much acid does one have to drop before hallucinating that ugly-ass…thing>

Last year, Mets star third baseman David Wright — public face of the MLB ‘07: The Show video game, Vitamin Water sports drinks and Fathead posters — made several public statements about how he’d be cutting back on “endorsement deals and promotional activities,” to focus on the game. Two weeks later, he made his second visit to theLate Show with David Letterman. To this day, athletepromotions.com informs me I can book Wright for “Corporate Appearances, Endorsements, Speaking & Autograph Signings.”

I’ll let you know after I finish this Subway sub Ryan Howard told me to buy accompanied by an EAS sports drink. Chase Utley recommended it!

So sad. You’d think that finally winning a World Series would help Phillies ‘fans’ get over their inferiority complex towards the Mets, but clearly it hasn’t helped. But then, what can you expect about a people from a city whose most beloved athlete is a Stallone character?

I’m the sassy sidekick with the big gun and even bigger attitude.
