N.Y. Post: MET WIFE: I’M A TEAM PLAYER
The matchmaking of Anna...Benson.
Benson, on the Howard Stern Show.....I told him [Kris] — because that’s the biggest thing in athletics, they cheat all the time — I told him, cheat on me all you want. If you get caught, I’m going to s- - -w everybody on your entire team — coaches, trainers, players. I would do everybody on his whole team.

I have no idea what she's saying here.
Dirty attention seeking whore.
...and why can't I meet women like that?
Dirty Attention Seeking Whore
see the difference?
Hmm, sounds like someone has already thought through her future divorce settlement.

Well this is certainly awkward.
If I'm a Shea announcer, I'm sending whores up to Kris' room every night.
LMAO.
Best offseason move in years.
Wilpon: "So Pedro, we'll give you a three year deal with an option for a fourth and there's a chance you might get banged by Anna Benson."
An option and an Option J in the same contract.

Lucky for them the Post has an archives and they'll be able to pull up this article some day.
Letterman: The Mets haven't gotten scr-wed like this since the Benson deal.
The media fodder would be insane (and certain questions about Mike Piazza may well get answered).
In other words, she consummated it after she had the Mets jack up the required....price.
Best Regards
John
I think two things are very clear: Anna Benson has opened herself up to being made fun of. And, she's opened herself up.
BTW, is this a tactic by the Mets' front office to attract free agents?

Gold.
Then you'd better change your name from Rally to Spank D.

"Tonight only, Mets wives' oil wrestling for charity!"
And I think we all know Anna's answer to my favorite question
Best Regards
John
Pass. too easy........
She might have if Pittsburgh had a Howard Stern.
Long live the king of all media.
Um, that was kinda the point. ;-)
Best Regards
John
And of course someone would bring up Piazza.
"TRANSLATOR-SAN, WHY IS COACH NIETO JUMPING UP AND DOWN WITH SUCH ENTHUSIASM?"
The trainers, on the other hand... Actually, the trainers probably do pretty well for themselves, too. The coaches I don't even want to think about.
My best friend has an expression for women famous for their looks above all else: "silly titties." It's his pet name for the Shannon Elizabeth's of the world. The silly titties of the world have a new queen.
Hmmmm....would Anna Benson worked inside, whether she likes the hard one, if she likes men who consistently pop up, whether she'd like Trachsel who works slowly. Could she get any kind of consistent relief from Braden Looper? Would she go around the horn with Kaz and Garcia? Could she get past first base with Piazza? Could she get Seo in the shower quicker? Would she want to get pegged at second by Jason Phillips or would she prefer Mike cameron to go deep into the gap? Does she prefer a five man rotation over a four man? Would she like to be set up by Botallico or Weathers or maybe she'd like to help Franco to blow one were he still around. Perhaps she'd like to see Mike Stanton hang one....does she have a generous strike zone? Who's the long man in the bullpen anyway? Does she care who's lumber has the longest stroke? Does she prefer to work from the stretch? Or does she like working ahead? Or behind? Would she like to touch 'em all?
Best Regards
John
Just curious, has there ever been a ball player who was married to a woman of real accomplishment, not some actress or athlete??
I'm tempted to say "I'd do Anna Benson," just so I honestly could say that I did, except that this is so far into the realm of the theoretical it'd be like discussing your D&D;campaign to the outside world.
And of course someone would bring up Piazza.
Took the thought straight out of my head... ;)
Well, Bret Barberie was married to NFL weathergirl Jillian Barberie, so...
Er, never mind.
Of course I was that CF. But I didn't really cheat on her. And she didn't really announce over the public airways that she'd screw everyone else on my team. She just did it.
And, no, I'm not bitter about it.
I'm ticked she didn't mention Mets' fans, however.
Just imagine what must be going through Mr. Met's oversized head about now.
That's easy.
Thoughts of his regular-sized head going through Anna Benson.
Would he be shouting, "That's right, Billy, I'll do her any damn way I please!"?
Gotta love Anna Benson though. Somebody should put together a reality show with her and Doug Christie's wife.
"One's a born-again Christian, the other is a born-again stripper. Can they ever get along?"
Run, Kris Jr., run!
And all of this silliness to give more publicity to baseball's answer to Paris Hilton.
Well, supposedly Anna ratted out Brian Giles and Jason Kendall for cheating on their wives, creating major problems for Kris in the clubhouse. The Mets' wives may find out more than they want to know.
Yet another argument in favour of not talking with your mouth full.
Best Regards
John
Thanks Pops. I would have never guessed that you had to censor that... thanks Colin Jr.!
Heh... that explains why Kris Benson slammed Giles and Kendall in the press... man, from what I've read, Giles looks like the biggest D-I-C-K in the majors.
So, there's like no chance at all that she was, y'know, speaking with humorous intent? The other day at work, I was being flip, talking about hitting this real jerk of a regional manager in the head with a shovel and stashing the body in his trunk. Doesn't mean I'd actually kill the guy if it came down to it, though. It's hyperbole.
Dunno. I've seen her in a couple different kinds of normal day-to-day interactions, and I've never seen her flirt with/kiss/molest/accost anybody but Kris. She's a bit of a drama queen, so this was probably just her way of saying that she'd make his life a living hell if he cheated on her, and that's pretty much a universal trait among scorned women.
The financial stuff is probably the literal truth, though. She used to stick her nose into his negotiations with the Pirates, and I really don't think that was the best thing for anybody.
This is another one where I have a little bit of inside information, and while I don't know about him being a dick in the general case, he really didn't treat his wife very well.
On Howard Stern? Hard to imagine.
Chris: Old enough to know you're a whore.
Just make sure you say, "this is the part of the meeting where I kill you" first. That always gets a good laugh.

Perhaps, but sharing it with the NY papers ? At some point - there's nothing wrong in accepting her based on what she projects.
Yes, but you didn't say it on national radio. There is the difference. If you had said it on national radio, there's a very good chance you would be fired. She said it on national radio, and there's a very good chance she's a slut.
Best Regards
John
Damn, John is on a roll today. RDF again.
Um, that's quite a leap there.
If she had blown Stern on the radio, then there's a very good chance she's a slut. If she had said it to the New York Times, there's a good chance she's a slut. If she goes on a raunchy morning radio show and says raunchy things, there's a good chance she's just having a fun time.
I thought that was Jim Bibby....
I have a job that brings me into contact with a lot of different people, that's all. Most of my info about the Bensons comes from the following sources:
1) A chance meeting at a restaurant.
2) One professional transaction, which included a small amount of personal contact.
3) A co-worker with a crafts business who did a few commission pieces for them.
4) An acquaintence who's the father of the longtime GF of another Pirate pitcher.
It's not a particularly large or thorough sample, but it's more interaction than most of the people calling Mrs. Benson a slut have had with her or her husband.
If you're willing to pay attention to the things around you, you can find out all kinds of interesting things. In the space of one year, I've had dealings with four Pittsburgh Steelers and the ex-wife of a fifth, a former bullpen guy for the Royals/Indians, the wife of a retired 20-game winner from the '60s, and the gentleman who does the voiceover for the Penguins' radio ads, among others.

yes Jim Bibby might be the biggest jerk - but are you accounting for league and park effects.
JMM, I think you are thinking of Henry Bibby. Unless his brother was just as much a shithead as he was.

ACtually, I was just making a joke that referred to one (somewhat unnecessary) of the revelations in this book. Jim Bibby may or may not have been the biggest, but apparently had the biggest....
They have that wife swap show. Man, talk about culture shock. Christie might become an HoFer if he didn't have to spend the whole game making hand signals to his wife on the court.
BTW, I went to a Lakers game when I was in L.A., and that's absolutely true. Every time they headed back on defense after a made basket, he signaled to the stands with the "I love you" hand gesture. Every freaking time.
