Around SBN: UFC 146 Predictions

I knew about the radio comments, but did anyone see this video? He probably still regrets not trading David Wright for Juan Cruz Jr.

Wow.

Simply the most screwed up person in baseball, and that is amazing.

Phillips is truly a moron

It’s one thing to make the suggestion in the heat of the moment, but to reflect on it and then double down on the stupid is mind boggling.

I didn't watch the video

but isn’t it possible that he regrets it because it would have screwed over a franchise that he’s still mad at

Is there anyone out there

That actually considers Phillips to be an informed opinion on baseball? And really, how this guy ever had a job with the Mets is frightening.

o yeah...

that explains that Bartolo Colon trade he made when with the Expos. Guess Omar had the balls and Phillips was just trying to find a fat girl to hold his balls

Look at the second commenter's comment

“IMAGINE THE METS GETTING OSWALT, WITH SANTANA AND PELPHRY IT WOULD BE THE GREATEST TOP 3 OF ALL TIME INCLUDING KOUFAX,DRYSDALE AND OSTEEN. LETS GO METS”

Then look at the comments in response to his, this is why people think Mets fans are stupid.

Gas prices today are a lot like a pitcher's ERA. Anything under 3 is amazing, under 4 is pretty good and anything 5 and up is something you want to avoid.

**facepalm**

If there's ever a riot at Citi Field and Oliver Perez was the starter, I started the riot.

Yea

The Unwritten Rule #10 was designed with those kind of comments in mind.

seriously

that is the most important rule. you should somehow sneak that on to Metsblog to save other frustrated readers, like I was.

Love the spelling of that fan (?)…how come the dumbest are also the loudest?

At 5:30 PM EDT today Starting today at 5:00 PM EDT, witness one of the greatest renderings of visual sound effects ever!

UPDATE 1: My browser has crashed several times in the process from all the rants (FUUUUUUUUUUUU!!!!) - as a result, there will instead be 4 or 5 separate installments of fxcarden's Nightly Rants! from 2011, with a similar pattern for the 2012 rants. Take my word for it, when I say that it's for the best. Here's the revised schedule:

Volume 1: 2011
No. 1: Today at 5:00 PM EDT
No. 2: Tomorrow
No. 3: Thursday
No. 4 and No. 5 (?) TBD

UPDATE 2: Vol. I, No. 1 (July, 2011) is now up!

2013 ALL-STAR GAME(TM) LOGO CONTEST

Major League Baseball has formally announced that Citi Field will be the site of the 2013 All-Star Game. (see video) In light of this, I have decided to launch an All-Star Game logo contest. To help get you started, I provided all of you with a sample All-Star Game logo. (click here to embiggen) If you wish to participate, please enter your submission with an image below, in the comments section. The contest ends on May 31st. I will choose a select number of finalists, and the community will vote on which of those logos is the best one.

Can you create a better logo than the sample logo provided? Then, give it a shot. Good luck to all participants!
Jon Rauch is awesome. Dan Tanna is, obviously, a fan of Greg Pomes.
