Kenny has advised me that if the Mets lose tonight he will be looking for something to bomb in retaliation. As it is 4:2 cardinals in the 8th I suspect one of my bases is going to get nuked in the near future. [:D]
See you in Detroit, pal.
Wait. The Mets will need tickets to get into the World's Series.
HAAAAAAAAAAA! HAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!

I dont know what any of you are arguing about. I'm not a sports fan and even I know that New Jersey doesnt have a baseball team. [:-]
It barely has a football team...and that only because we in NY let you borrow it.

Best regular season records don't seem to give teams the edge they use to in sports. Both NY baseball teams get there, but don't make it to the "Show."
Next year, they should try harder to get the Wild Card. [:D][:D]

i think there should be a restructuring of the home field advantage for best record teams in the MLB...to bring it more in line with NFL homefield advantage results. Only 1 wild card team in NFL history has won the superbowl...but like 5 have one the world series
instead of 2 home, 3 away, 2 home....It should go 3 home, 2 away, 2 home
and in the divions series it should go 2 home, 1 away, 2 home

As long as you keep your baseball teams on your side of the river everything will be just fine. Getting to a NY stadium is a pain in the @ss so it is no wonder that your teams play here. I have been to Yankees Stadium once (only so my neice could so the Angles kick their butts) and it was the worst trip I had ever made. There is no parking, the place smells like urine, and the traffic is terrible. Getting to Shea Stadium is where the term "You can't get there from here" comes from. Giants Stadium is much better.
The "Link" and Citizen's Bank Park are so much better and easier to get to. I am a Philadelphia sports fan anyway.
