What Mets fans talk about when not talking about the actual games.
Good piece here about the proliferation of statues going up outside new stadiums.
Frank White outside KC’s stadium?
Harold Baines outside NotComiskey?
The Steve Garvey Rotunda in Flushing?
I am rescinding my previous request for a Seaver statue at Citi Field. Let him have one in his beloved vineyard. We’ve broken up with you Former Franchise.
Let there be a statue of The Captain, Keith Hernandez – right in front of the Sandy Koufax Rotunda.
And where’s my Mel Ott statue?!
Every other blog will have the psycho post about the bullpen and the end of days and the Apocalypse.
Relax.
Bad loss, yes.
The closer was unavailable. The bullpen blew a lead. It happens.
Yes it would have been cool to be a game up.
The knuckleheads who booed – uncool. You could boo Willie’s team, but Jerry and the Gangstas have played their heart out.
The SS is a knucklehead.
If you haven’t been paying attention since September 2007, the Phillies aren’t going to roll over and die. If you don’t realize this, go buy a Randolph jersey.
Remain calm. One back. A month ago you would have been thrilled to be one back.
Did you see the play in the 9th? Jose needs to know what to do when it’s hit to him.
He may be a nice player, but he’s destined to Cylon the Mets in the 9th inning of Game 7.
There’s some talent in there, but sometimes the mind wanders like my puppy.
Some day when they need him most – he’ll get picked off third in the bottom of the 9th.
Nice to hear Kay forget from where he came. Today he spent part of his show sticking up for the Giants and personal seat licenses.
Kay of all people should understand that sports means so much more to the people of a city than being a business.
If it’s just a business then let the Giants pay for their own access roads. Let the Giants pay for extra police on gamedays.
Michael, when’s the last time you paid for a ticket? I’m sure you have had no problem getting into any sporting event for two decades now going back to your sportswriter days.
See if you can remember your former self. I don’t know your background but I’ll guess you don’t come from money. Think back to Daddy Kay saving some money to take you to a Yankee game. I bet the old man didn’t have a few extra thousand bucks for a PSL when he sent you to Fordham.
It’s easy to forget where you came from when sitting in the pressbox.
It’s even easier to forget your fans when you’re a millionaire’s son Tim.
Shame on you Giants.
Shame on you Michael Kay.

ESPN reports the Yankees have “lifted a ban on plastic containers of sunscreen at their ballpark after deciding “not to be as stringent,” team spokesman Jason Zillo said Tuesday.
Whew, the great terrorist sunscreen threat seems to have been reduced to code blue.
I wonder if the terrorists are still sneaking things in under baseball caps? The Yankees make you remove your cap before enterting the stadium – you know, because why would any normal thinking person think they could wear a Yankees cap to Yankee Stadium.
Of course while checking the caps, making us show our cellphones (another uncommon item) and forbidding bags, they may often miss the guns, knives and shoe bombs being snuck in in plain sight.
One day, perhaps at Yankee Stadium III, the Yankees will allow their customers to bring a bag. I know it’s crazy to think that someone would need to bring a bag to Yankee Stadium. It’s not like anyone comes after work for a night game, or might bring a child and thus a need to bring a few extra items.
Nope, it’s best we keep the bags out. I feel safe now that they’ve checked my cellphone and missed the blackberry I chose not to show them.
For the record, the Mets allow sunscreen and bags….and trust that you don’t have a bomb under your cap.
