This Week in Mets Quotes

Counting $141.5 millon can also get in the way

“[Dickey] was always a little bit different. He was always a smart guy, always looking for the deeper meaning of life. Position players don’t have that much time. We don’t get the luxury of figuring that part of life out.”  Helton via espnny

Star-divide

Always with the excuses #traiddavidwrong

"I thought I hit it well. It's just the wrong ballpark to hit that ball.  The wrong ballpark and definitely the wrong part of the ballpark."  Wright via dailynews

Now here’s a real franchise player

“There’s big parks but when I do get a ball, I will take my chances pretty much at any park.”  Tulowitzki via nyp

I think clubhouse morale might be a bit low

"It's horrible, man. As a whole bullpen, trying to keep the lead there . . . to give it away like that, it's very frustrating." Carrasco via dailynews

“It makes me sick to my stomach when I can't go six innings or more. That's what I do. To not be able to do that for whatever reason is painful."  Dickey via dailynews
"It was a miserable home stand." Wright via dailynews

"It's ugly right now." Reyes via dailynews

"Things have to get better." Pagan via dailynews

"You just feel disgusted with yourself." Boyer via dailynews

Hope continues to be the theme of the Alderson regime

"Hopefully, we'll get another couple of arms in here and that will settle things down."  Alderson via dailynews

I think this is a compliment

"They are the guys on this team. Make no mistake about it.”  Collins on Wright, Reyes, and Beltran via dailynews

He added, ‘like say around 54 more’

"It's a big one, very important to me," Rodriguez said. "It's been a long time, and that's what I've been working hard for all winter, to get the first save out of the way and now stay healthy and get as many more as I can."  Frankie via dailynews

SiteBot FacePalm of the Week

“I've never seen a guy who's a big stud, with a great arm...and great pitches, who has such negative body language…Like he dosen’t beleive in himself. One bad thing happens and then the floodgates open with him. I’m not fucking Dr. Phil but thats how I read his body language.”  The real Julio from Paterson

AA Quote of the Week

“You might as well be Dr. Phil: he doesn’t have a degree in psychology, either.”  BobbyV_Incognito

I really enjoy reading these quotes.

One 15 minute call could save you hundreds on your Dickey insurance. Your going to need it punk!

Woo hoo, Quote of the Week!

"And that's why anybody who invested with Lenny Dykstra should really call that number. Lawyers are standing by."

I thought I had a chance at it for once.

Enjoying what may be the final season of two of my favorite Mets in Blue and Orange: Jose Reyes and Carlos Beltran

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!
