>Willie Watch – Back To One

>A few years ago I was an extra at Yankee Stadium in the Adam Sandler movie Anger Management. During that long night (I was there from about 10:30 pm to 5:00 am) I learned quite a bit about being an extra – but one thing that really stuck was the phrase “Back To One.”
Back To One was used by the production crew when they had to reshoot a scene – everyone had to go back to the spot they were at for the start of the scene – back to your first position – back to one.

It seems to me that that Mets over the last year keep going Back To One – they move forward a little, gain some ground, then something happens and they fall back to where they started, back to the position they were in when they started – they go Back To One.

That is Willie Randolph’s legacy with the Mets: Back To One.

Two weeks ago the Mets returned home from out west under .500 having been swept by the Rockies, ready to take on a first place team at home.

Tonight the Mets are returning home from out west under .500, having been swept by the Padres, ready to take on a first place team at home.

Back To One

The Mets go over .500 then go under .500

Back To One

Willie is on the hot seat – Willie is safe

Back To One

It’s time to start the next scene. Time to wrap up this one and stop going

Why was Sandy Alomar holding Wright up at 3rd?

How can you score only one run with the bases loaded and none out?

The Red Sox guy pitches tomorrow, but the way the bats have been silent, and with Church still out…

tick…tick…tick…
