Various one-off thoughts about the Mets

Random brain droppings:

I’m really enjoying this season. Then again I really enjoyed last season.

All of us, including the Mets, would have signed up for 6-3. Win 2 of 3 all season and you find yourself covered in ticker tape. Even coming home 7-5 wouldn’t be awful, though 8-4 sounds much better.

I’m glad everyone likes the jerseys. As the King Of I Told You So, I told you so.

I finished Homeland after Sandy Alderson’s recommendation and really enjoyed it. I felt the final episode was a little too long but other than that really good. I plan to drive my fellow bloggers crazy by bringing up the show on the next conference call with @metsgm

I’m hoping we do a call with Murphy. I’d love to know how he deals with the naysayers.

I need something to talk to Colactus about. I may default to asking about running.

Who the hell told Mrs. Mets Police she could go to a Broadway show on Saturday? Oh, I did. No Mets game for me, tickets are up on Stubhub. Booooo.

Anyone else scheduling a child’s birthday party around Banner Day? That’s why you concede on things like Broadway Show Day. No problem honey, I will watch the kids. What Mets tickets?

Same thing yesterday, I wanted to head to Philly but gave the tickets to Dan to keep the peace.

I don’t trust Mike Pelfrey. Sorry Mike. I just don’t.

I’m really enjoying Howie and Josh and will write a longer post about that soon. Yesterday I caught some Little Rascals talk between pitches. I know some hate that stuff but I listen to baseball to be entertained. Don’t forget the baseball is the mechanism by which the Wilpons sell you tickets, food and merch…and get advertisers to give them money while you listen/watch.
