Around SBN: My First Fight: Diego Sanchez

outrage

this year watching the Mets play is worse then a week overdue bowl movement, I just don't understand how the pitching can be so dreadful, it's if you are watching little league T-ball when the Mets's are pitching. maybe a new chat should be started by the fans at Citifield. when the  Met's come up to bat everyone in the stands should scream "THREE UP THREE DOWN" and when they are on defense they should scream " HERE WE GO BLOOP AND A BLAST" maybe humiliation is the answer.

Somehow, a chain of events unfolded that put Steve Phillips in a professional broadcast booth Sunday night so he could rip Carlos Beltran. Try to explain that in any other terms.

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

The AA SiteBot is one of the greatest things I’ve seen out of the SBN blogging community. It’s practically worthy of a Bud Light’s “Real Men of Genius” jingle.

Also, FYI, it’s raining pretty steady in Atlanta right now. That being said now, it’ll probably gone and be great weather for game time later.

I like to imagine that Wolfman

sat around for a few days hashing this post out. He was mulling some possible ‘funny’ “chats” for Mets fans, and thinking of metaphors to both properly capture the anguish of the Mets’ pitching woes and astound fellow AAer’s and English professors alike. He mostly did his thinking sitting on the bowel during his “bowl” movements, but as he always jokes to his SheWolf, that’s where he gets most of his best thinking done, ha ha.

Finally, when it had all marinated and stewed in his lupine brain for a while he decided to write a rough draftin Word, but the thing is it was so great as it was spilling from his head, he felt like he was in the midst of a free-form Kerouacian stream-of-consciousness epiphanous mind explosion and he knew it was also his final draft. No improvements could be made. He hit F7, saw that there were no spelling errors and submitted it to AA, fully expecting much gratitude and rejoicing from us lowly ManMen upon whom he had bestowed his gift.

And then he howled at the moon.

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.

(click to embiggen)
Now that banner day is back, hopefully this years will look a little like this. I know it's not great, but i don't pretend to be a professional. embiggen!
