Re: weaver

Even if we lose, we win, because we made it one series farther than the Yanks.

ok, done now. I'm just giving you shit because it's not every year the Yanks spend so much money and lose so early, oh wait, it is every year! lol.

ok, seriously, i'm done....just like the Yanks.

ok, really...finished now...which coincidently...so are the...oh nevermind.

Re: weaver

Now that that post is over, just like the...fuck, i can't help myself!!!!

re: The Cards - they have pretty much everything stacked against them, which imo, is the only thing they have going for them. Underdogs, for once. This team is strange. Depending on which one shows up, we're either going to get smoked 4 and out, or we're one of the best teams in the league. We've certainly showed both sides this year, it's seriously a crap shoot hinged on this first game imo. The momentum builder. Sadly, we're sending Weaver out there for game 1. Depends on which Weaver shows up. lol. I care, but not as much as years past, because i already wrote the Cards off before the season ended. Now that we're still in it, every game we play is just a bonus to me. Keeps me sane that way.

And just for shits and grins, let's say we make it to the world series...we probably face the Tigers, and we all know how our last meeting went with them.

Living for today. Going to drink some beer and enjoy 1 game tonight.

Re: weaver

i like willy, but i have more interest in the cards. mainly, for rolen and jim, and the fact that mets fans seem to have forgotten about thier own team and only worry about what we are doing. they havent had a front or back page here since they clinched. and suddenly they think they are the yanks with 11 straight playoff apprearances, and 4 titles. they think its 1987 again.

Re: weaver

God no, we do not think we the Yanks, we are the anti-Yanks. Take that for all the good and bad it implies.

What front/back page should the Mets have on the 4 day break? "Mets Wait Patiently" (see Sports for story on how David Wright spent his off day)

Re: weaver

Damn Glavine looked pretty solid imo. Actually he looked great for someone who is 40 years old and in his 19th season. Doesn't seem like 11 years since he won won MVP of the series

Re: weaver

only caught from the 5th inning on, but glavine owned the couple i saw him toss. class act all the way, that guy.
cards definitely had an off night. bad base running buy poo hole plus he lined out twice.
mets looked good from the highlights i saw, but im still pulling for the cards!

Re: weaver

That's one. Great job by Glavin, great defense behind all the Met pitchers, great rip by Beltran. Way to start it off boys!!

[Garrick]

Re: weaver

weaver pitched really well. he just made one bad mistake to the wrong guy. that wasn't just a rip, that brought back memories of pujols crushing lidge. beltran WHALLOPED the ball. both of these teams are injury-plagued to all hell, though. i'm wondering what either team will do, whoever makes it to the next round.

Re: weaver

1. Glav's proformance got me thinking last night- just how fking amazing was that Braves pitching staff in the 90s? Can't believe they didn't win more championships.

2. Weaver didn't lose that game for us...hellooo? run support? haey guuuyz?

Good game, not the outcome i wanted, but this series is far from yankeed.

Weaver pitched a whale of a game, IMO (at least by Weaver standards), but it just goes to show how crucial every pitch is at this level. Leave one pitch hanging out over the plate, and that could be the difference maker.

Beltran crushed that ball, tho. Made me cringe.

Still feel OK about the series, though. If you had told me before the game that we'd have Weaver going up against Glavine and wouldn't get demoralized, I would have been pretty happy. Wasn't really counting on a win in this game...
