This came up on twitter last night (@metspolice) when I said that every time I see a #27 on the mound I think of Dr. Craig Swan.
This card allowed us to tell Yankees fans that Swan was as good as Guidry. We were serious. Ha!!
What Mets fans talk about when not talking about the actual games.
I’m loving TC’s rant because it echoes what should be this team’s slogan.
Dig down, run hard. Use all 27 outs. Man Up. Play Better. I guarantee you that we will be able to say both about whoever wins the World Series.
2 outs to Boston, you’re about to lose the World Series. Do you quit? No, you get a single! That’s the kind of thing they retire your number for!
Now once again I’ll point out that when you’re chasing even the Pirates in the Wild Card (and hand them two games) you’re not going to make it to the postseason…but winning organizations are a build. Start with today. Man up. Play better. Demand the same from your teammates and your future teammates. Someone be the LoDuca. Someone be the Paul O’Neill. Someone be the Keith Hernandez who threatens to punch you in the face if you throw that pitch again.
There’s no better way to say it than Man Up and Play Better. Someone should put that on a t-shirt. I’d buy one.
My inbox had lots of goodies from my Special Ops Force this morning. Here’s some cool shots from the Teammates in the Community outings this week. I really wish I could have tagged along on some, especially the Intrepid.
Lousy night here at MP HQ. Here’s a quicky post – @thereadlsoxy with the wide angle crowd shot pre-game, and @mediagoon with the rest (from the 4th).
Goon had a steak and a beer. I got in after 9 and then a late arriving and late staying houseguest asked “is that a real snake?” Yes it was. I just wanna go to bed – so here’s a quick post for y’all.
Yeah I mislabeled them June 2. I’m beat. And it still says #debug. The Mets stunk tonight. Worry about that instead.
