1. Why Bloody Valdespin? Posted: May 08, 2012 at 07:14 PM (#4126803)

Is Miguel Batista really any better than Schwinden?

2. AJM Posted: May 08, 2012 at 07:18 PM (#4126806)

Batista is not better than anyone.

3. Why Bloody Valdespin? Posted: May 08, 2012 at 07:21 PM (#4126808)

It'll be funny if the loss of Pelfrey ends up being the biggest reason the Mets miss the playoffs.

4. Why Bloody Valdespin? Posted: May 08, 2012 at 07:24 PM (#4126812)

Well, that didn't take long.

5. AJM Posted: May 08, 2012 at 07:25 PM (#4126814)

Pelfrey would've wound up being his old self.

6. Why Bloody Valdespin? Posted: May 08, 2012 at 07:30 PM (#4126819)

I think I'd prefer Pelfrey's current self over Batista/Schwinden.

7. AJM Posted: May 08, 2012 at 07:32 PM (#4126823)

Eh. I just hate watching Pelfrey pitch.

8. Why Bloody Valdespin? Posted: May 08, 2012 at 07:46 PM (#4126830)

I think maybe it's time to start watching hockey.

9. AJM Posted: May 08, 2012 at 07:46 PM (#4126831)

I have the Devils on the TV and the Mets on the computer.

10. AJM Posted: May 08, 2012 at 07:59 PM (#4126835)

What will be the higher number? Devils goals or Mets hits? Goals are winning 1-0 so far.

11. AJM Posted: May 08, 2012 at 08:28 PM (#4126849)

At the end of 1 and 5, goals and hits are tied at 2!

12. AJM Posted: May 08, 2012 at 09:14 PM (#4126886)

I like Kirk.

13. AJM Posted: May 08, 2012 at 09:19 PM (#4126887)

Crazy!

14. Lassus Posted: May 08, 2012 at 09:31 PM (#4126901)

I just got home! HOLY #### WE'RE AHEAD!

By the by, does anyone have decent, simple soup recipe for beef broth and vegetables? Where the hell is PreservedFish when I need him?

15. Lassus Posted: May 08, 2012 at 09:32 PM (#4126903)

#### YES DAVID

16. AJM Posted: May 08, 2012 at 09:35 PM (#4126908)

Josh Hamilton has 4 HRs and a double tonight. He's got an outside shot to get another AB, he's due up 7th in the 9th.

17. AJM Posted: May 08, 2012 at 09:36 PM (#4126910)

Lassus, what did you think of The Avengers?

18. Lassus Posted: May 08, 2012 at 09:43 PM (#4126922)

Lassus, what did you think of The Avengers?

I loved it, going to see it again with my GF on Friday. Very very close to a perfect comic book film. Have you seen it yet?

19. Lassus Posted: May 08, 2012 at 09:45 PM (#4126927)

I have not been impressed with Collins' recent basepath strategies.

20. AJM Posted: May 08, 2012 at 09:54 PM (#4126934)

I saw it today, I was thinking I'd rather see "Iron Man" again. I liked it, but I thought all the best parts involved Robert Downey Jr.

But I'm not a comic book guy.

21. Lassus Posted: May 08, 2012 at 09:54 PM (#4126936)

Man, I hope THole's not out long.

22. Lassus Posted: May 08, 2012 at 09:58 PM (#4126940)

I liked it, but I thought all the best parts involved Robert Downey Jr.

My girlfriend is going to be pleased with this part of the film.

I think it's already showing massive crossover appeal, but I'm sure it's not for everyone. People who hate dogs and sunshine, say.

I KID! I'm sure you like dogs. :-)

23. AJM Posted: May 08, 2012 at 10:03 PM (#4126947)

Not a fan of dogs.

I like baseball and boobs. The Avengers did provide me the latter (Scarlett, yum).

24. Lassus Posted: May 08, 2012 at 10:16 PM (#4126964)

I love insurance runs.

25. AJM Posted: May 08, 2012 at 10:25 PM (#4126976)

Ballgame!

26. Why Bloody Valdespin? Posted: May 08, 2012 at 10:25 PM (#4126979)

Mets are unstoppable!

Also congrats on the devils, ajm

27. Lassus Posted: May 08, 2012 at 10:26 PM (#4126981)

Awesome.

The cubs, unfortunately, suck.

28. AJM Posted: May 08, 2012 at 10:31 PM (#4126990)

Also congrats on the devils, ajm

Thanks, it's nice to be a fan of one team that doesn't disappoint me every year.
