Picture of Thursday night’s Citi Field crowd

Let us remember the weather isn’t so good, there may have been tornadoes, the 7 train was out, trees fell and someone was killed on the Grand Central Parkway.

Terence (who sent this in) says: Sat in an hour traffic on the GCP and when I got here, Mama’s of Corona was already closed in the top of the 2nd! But, as always, a line for Shake Shack and no one has spotted me yet…(in the Pelfrey jersey).

More Mazzilli Manager support

From Mets Gazette:

My choice is Lee Mazzilli. Although he sports a .480 career winning percentage as a manager (129 wins to 140 losses from 2004 to August 2005) I think he got a raw deal with the Orioles and was dismissed far too impetuously. Plus, I don’t put much weight in a manager’s first few years managing as he is learning the ropes himself. I seem to recall some other guy from Brooklyn who managed the Mets and ended his run with a .405 winning percentage after five seasons. He’s the same guy who is now a lock for Cooperstown.

Remember when I was the only lunatic who wanted Lee to replace Willie? This is two votes-for-Lee in a week.

I love Lee but the name means nothing to anyone under 40….but as we learned earlier this year even the name Doc Gooden means nothing to anyone under 30, so I’m not sure Wally Backman will.
