7/14 Mets (Trachsel) vs. Cubs (Maddux) 1:20PM CT CSN/ESPN

The Mets announcers are talking about how clean the play was...uhm, Nady was way off the bag.

[Outshined_One]

My friend's comment was that Nady needed a fishing pole to reach 2B.

 

I'm inclined to agree.

Hernandez is a dirt ball.

 

Maybe somebody will spit on him as he is leaving the park.

[soccer10k]

Oh crap....that wasn't pretty.

 

A three run lead. So much for being at 500 by August 3. Maybe by August 4...

 

Actually it would be August 5. :)

[Dr. Cub]

Next at bat Nady should be plunked, but you know that won't happen.

[tgk]

. . . and the celebrations that are sure to take place in "Boystown" in the hours after the Closing Ceremony will add even more to the memories. :shock:

 

If a straight person had written that, they would have been:

 

A: Called an insensitive homophobe

 

B: Accused of being a closet gay person who is repressing their true feelings.

 

C: Convicted of a hate crime

 

D: All of the above.

 

What part? Boystown is a "neighborhood", kind of like Chinatown but for gay people.

 

That's better. We moved from Chicago about 30 years ago and as I was five at the time I was not all that well acquainted with the local districts even then.

 

I'm not one for indiscrimate bashing, just get a little annoyed a double standards. I'll try to do a little research next time.

[Rusch33]

A walk to Trachsel?

 

Get that guy out of there.

Ask him if a woman could have made that play.

"Nice game, pretty boy!"

 

"That is one magic loogie" :lol:

"I'm Keith Hernandez"

 

Hilarious episode, well, technically episodes since it was a 2 parter.

I wanted that to be true, and so I went back and looked at the reply several times-unfortunately, Nady made contact with the bag, as he was sliding by he reached out and barely touched the bag, you can see his hand reaching out and then changing angles slightly because it hit the bag-but just the very end of his fingers. Still, though, that was out there enough to definitely be questionable, but he did hit the bag.

I don't know what you are talking about. The Mets guys even changed their story to "he hit the bag" to "he could have hit the bag". He did not touch the base.

[goonys evil twin]

Ronny with a quintessential swing at the pitcher's pitch. A breaking ball that dropped out of the zone and he flails at it. The inability to take bad pitches is killing this franchise.

[Bruno7481]

Wow, vintage Steve Stone on ESPN.

 

Wondering aloud why Maddux is hitting, considering everyone is rested. Said it makes no sense whatsoever.

[abuck1220]

i see the cubs came back from the break with a renewed commitment to aggressive hitting.

[goonys evil twin]

He's probably a better hitter than any of the guys who would have gone up there, Mabry or Perez.

 

Plus, "I've got to save my bullpen man."

[goonys evil twin]

This should last about 5 minutes.

the cubs don't have a decent ph, and even one of them should miraculously reach, pierre ain't going to bunt-homerun them home anyway.

[Outshined_One]

bobby-coxer: what the hell just happened

 

PeteOrria: I ... I don't know, I was just about to seque into a joke about The Silence of the Lambs and all of a sudden I'm staring at Dick Clark's brown eye.

 

AChipOffTheOl'_erJones: It's TBS, whenever it rains they go the archives so it's either bloopers, James Bond movies, or WCW Saturday Night.

 

AChipOffTheOl'_erJones: Just be thankful that we don't play for the Cubs. WGN cuts away from 9th innings to see how kids do at Bozo's Grand Prize Game.

Z is on the bench.

Rain delay.
