The Mets must have read the Mets Police this morning and decided to tick me off. They wore black. Black hats (better than the hybrid hats, but the NY disappears on those. Just wear the Giants hats) with the black softball jerseys. Stupid.
Livan impressed me. That home run kinda stunk, and killed the move…but up until that pitch the article I was writing in my head was about how great he was.
Congrats to Gary Sheffield. It tied the game so I will tip my cap (mine is blue).
Boois Castillo knocks in the winning run with two out in the 9th. Santana tomorrow.
Notes from my TV watching:
SNY showed a cool vintage film from 1969 opening day. (Like the old WOR-9 rain delay videos from the 70s). Very cool. Please show more of these.
Kevin Burhdardt telling me about the short concession lines in the Promenade….dude go away. I don’t need to be told every night how good the food is…and the lines aren’t short, anyone who was out there this week knows there have been all kinds of problems. The propganda crap makes me angry.
6th Inning: Darling mentions how quiet it is at Citi Field. We keep hearing that about both new stadiums. Welcome to nice quiet New York?
How many times do you see teams let pitchers off the hook after putting them on the ropes (see today’s Yankee game and Mets game)?
When the Mets realize we don’t want “Sweet Caroline?” It’s not ours.

Didn’t see the game live; caught the headlines this morning. My first thought was “Hey all right, attaboy Sheffield.” My second thought was “Wait, Luis did *what*?” and my third was “Look at all that black; Mets Police are not going to like that one little bit.”
Still a win’s a win.
