here in sw ohio where we can see these two teams 5 times a week (WGN/TBS). i think fox also gets exclusive rights and therefore prevents me from listening on mlb audio.

marlins lead the league in players photographed with their caps askew (see Ramirez, Hanley).

Ah, youth.......

dontrelle isn't considered a rookie anymore, so maybe we can beat up on him today. I hope we are not obliged to collapse against young pitchers until they are arbitration eligible?

If you

4 run lead
with 2 outs in 8th. Braford is good against righties. Heilman can't pitch every day.

3 days off isn't too much. Considering how much he has been used. Honestly if Willie can give him tommorow I would be cool too.

Wow--Bradford got an out. 7--3. Tom's great.
Now 2 Staurday afternoons with the Mets headin' to the 9th with at least a 4-run lead...uh oh!
And why is David Wright still the NL's biggest secret?--these two announcers don't even have decent scouting reports in front of 'em. Good thing Girardi doesn't either...

Good times
Mike Remlinger throws cheese down the heart of the plate and Ronny Cedeno fucking pops in behind the seats. That was an easy hit.

DW's knob...
Si, senor...Lou does seem to have an unnatural attraction to DW's 'bathead' today...about the only time he wakes up from a neo-Kiner coma. O how thta drool must look in the booth...
Reyes? DP? That does not compute. And it sucks...never enough runs on a Sat afternoon for the Mets...

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!
