Open Letter To Paul Lo Duca

Dear Paul,

There are hundreds of us out here, bloggers who blog about the Mets.

We are of common consensus that you're getting an unnecessary bullocking from the media about things that have absolutely nothing to do with your performance as a Met, your character as a man.

As far as we have counted, all of us like horses too.

Not all of us bet on them, but that's your business. Michael Jordan probably loses more gambling on a hole of golf than you do in a year of playing the ponies.

But the important thing is that in the midst of this media tsunami during which every jackal with a job to sell papers is selling them sullying your good name, you have the full and unmitigated support of every single one of the Mets bloggers signed via html below.

We wish you good luck in weathering the storm and look forward to further heroics from you in the 2006 World Series.

All the best,

Mets bloggers

PS- Where have they hidden Victor Diaz?

(a daft draft but if anyone has suggestions, feel free to let them fly here.)

I think it should be written in Italian, wrapped around a handful of Italian meatballs.

Paul Lo Duca is the devil in his own workshop. Infidelity and gambling. It just doesn't look good. Next thing you know he'll develop gout. He's playing with fire.

I wonder when the NY Post will "Out" a Yankee?

I guess when Tim Mc Carver & Joe Buck, stop using hair dye.

No End To The Riches: 36 year old Catalanotto now a Met

Image
I like it when the word "intangibles" is the best word you can find to describe a new Mets signing. It makes my heart flutter with excitement. Who needs Orlando Hudson when you've got intangibles? I'm reminded of Donald Rumsfeld ruminations on the matter: "There are known knowns. These are things we know that we know. There are known unknowns. That is to say, there are things that we know we don't know. But there are also unknown unknowns. There are things we don't know we don't know." Frank Catalanotto is one of those things we don't know we don't know and yet another reason, along with the signing of Fernando Tatis and Josh Fogg that we don't need to know what we don't know because we don't even know that we don't know it yet. 2010 Mets Promotional Poster can finally be revealed I mean Frank Catalanotto could make a great bench coach for the Buffalo Bisons. Just think how valuable that could be to Buff...

Chooooooooooke

You could say at leasr they hadn't blown the season after a half inning like last year but you'd be lying to yourself. Last year was like ripping the bandage off. Yesterday was like getting a bone rebroken because it didn't heal right the first time. I could moan about Schoeneweis and Ayala giving up those consecutive homers in the 8th. But that would diminish the pathetic choke of managing only five runs against Marlin pitching in three games. You want to hang some bullseyes? Jose Reyes . after the September he had last season, 2 for 13 against the Marlins was disgraceful. Especially because he is the motor of the offense. When he chokes, the Mets have no offense. Maybe he shouldn't be getting 688 at-bats in a season. Maybe he needs rest more often. Something tells me he's got to go and now, whilst he's young and fast and popular. He'll be worth alot. Wright , .340 in September but 0 for 4 last night. Yes, 4 hits in this series. All fucking singl...

The Best Thing About Spring Training? No Room For Hope

I can't imagine people applying for season tickets to see the Mets this year. Not unless they're looking for a rerun of last season tragicomedy. I can't even imagine stumping up a few American dollars for the MLB.com dodgy video feeds this year. I mean I'll probably break down and do it but at this point, I still can't imagine it. It'll probably happen in a drunken stupor, waxing nostalgic about some sort of nihilistic wonder and inner delusion chancre. But we have to give the Mets credit. They did, in essence, nothing to make us think 2010 would be any better than 2009's nightmare. They got Jason Bay , true. But that was the bare minimum requirement. That and waving good riddance to Carlos Delgado . Replaced by the magical middle of the road nobodies, Dan Murphy and Mike Jacobs . Be still my bitter heart. That pair are hitting a combined 17 for 80 or an emblematic .212. Good thing it doesn't count. Yet. They signed no one else of any...
