Around SBN: NHL Trade Rumors: Do You Make A Move For Rick Nash?

Gary, Keith & Ron Drinking Game Update

I have updated the GKR Drinking Game, based on suggestions from the comments section.  Hopefully we can make this an ongoing project which I can periodically update.  One regret from the original game was no mention of Ralph Kiner.  This has been rectified.  Happy drinking everyone.

good to see AA still has its priorities in order

i’d suggest some rules for any Mets fans expats living in dc watching nationals games, but lets face if, if youre watching that craptastic team and listening to awful bob carpenter and rob dibble than mostly like you dont need any help drinking through that abortion of a broadcast.

Lets hope that when gut check time comes again the Mets will pass it with flying colors.

I cant wait to go back to school

I get Pirates, Nats, and Phillies games there. It’s like the broadcasting trifecta from hell. I would rather plug my ears with actual excrement than listen to the verbal variety those homers spew.

It’s disturbing when the Sunday Night ESPN team is actually an improvement on the norm.

I'd like somebody to buy me a drink

Please add Keith's misuse of either vs neither for 2-3 drinks!

At least once every two weeks, Keith will say “neither” instead of “either”.

My recommendation is 2 drinks for neither instead of either, with an addition drink if he asks Gary Cohen if he used the right word.

Introducing Buddy Alderson, Sandy's dog, and the newest member of Puppy Avenue!

Embiggen here.
Judging by the comments to Matt Callan’s ode to 1986 Mets: A Year To Remember from a few weeks back, the video has a devoted Mets fan following. Despite being too young to remember anything about that season, it has a special place in my fandom as well. It was part of a two video rotation (Ghostbusters being the other) which ran almost daily on my television for a few years in the early 90s. And it remained a once-in-awhile watch through high school and college. 

Unsurprisingly, the physical tape deteriorated over time, and the screen jumps and sound skips made for a less than optimal viewing experience. With sale of the video discontinued, my brother converted it to DVD and gave it to me for Christmas in 2010. See the picture above for the box and DVD. He even created a scene selection function which can be accessed from the main menu. "Get Metsmerized!" plays on loop on the menu screen. It is my favorite Christmas gift ever and is still nice to throw on for a viewing.

"How'd we do it? Mirrors!"
I was flipping through some of my parents' photo albums this afternoon in search of one particular shot of the sign my older sister made for Mets Banner Day back in the late eighties. Though I didn't find that one — I'll post it when I eventually track it down, and I can assure you that it's Keith-themed — but I did stumble upon this wonderful photo of my younger sister's stuffed animal menagerie spread out in front of a glorious rainbow-festooned Mets pennant, also from the late eighties.

She works for the HRC now and was particularly delighted to be reminded of this photo.
