again.....

the goal is to score. this is achieved by running the ball into the opponent’s end zone, or kicking said ball thru the uprights, in the opponent’s end zone.

the only way you score points by tackling someone is a safety, and in that case, the dude deserves to be tackled for being stupid.

ask the knicks if thats true

1. we’ve already seen plenty of evidence that this is totally untrue and the mets attendance has plummeted by measurable numbers, to the extent they had the biggest decline IN THE MAJORS.

2. even if the seats are still full lower demand will mean lower ticket prices. So they can still sell out selling tickets at half price and still lose massive amounts of money.

I think I saw some little league pitchers this weekend

that could hold this Mets offense scoreless thru 6 innings or so. What an embarrasing homestand offensively. Just wasting some very good pitching, could have realistically won all 6 games with even a halfway decent offense.

i have a devastating eephus pitch

and let’s just say no one crowds the plate when i’m on the mound.

I had a summer goals list that I wrote up for this summer

one of them was seriously “have the most posts in a gamethread”. I did it (I think it was the game w/ Dickey against Detroit, the rain delayed, Jay Sborz one)

Another one was “find pants with deeper pockets”. Never did get around to that.

Ugh. When I was living in DC my friend closed his Macbook with a pair of ear buds on the keyboard and smashed the screen. In fairness, he ordered the parts and repaired it himself. I would not trust myself to do that.

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.
