You can look it as the Mets just got flat out embarrassed by the beaners or you can look at it as simply a warm team being bettered by a hot team. I however will choose to put on my Reynolds hat, and look at our secure double digit lead in the div and come to the realization that either Magnums team or the Sox are probably going to be wild and only one ALeast team advances. Being the opening band for the Broomtown Rats was no fun but it drops the yankees four back and that can be the only reason we got swept, to screw the bronx biotches. Now all we have to do is serve up a cuban sandwich, get back on trach and....
BEAT THE YANKEES
and as the Fly so eloquently is known to say...
LETS GO METS!!!

I didn't even think about that...sounds like a good reason to me, being anything that's bad for the Yankees somehow is good for us! I was more inclined to think it was because Lastings Milledge can't catch fly balls. Let's call up Cliff Floyd from the Brooklyn Cyclones. Tell me, if D.Wright hits a smash like the one that Koko B. Ware snagged last night, does Johnny "Positively Homo Erotic" catch it...me thinks not. Lets Go Mets!
Sidenote - for those of you decent people who don't listen to or watch Yankee games, John "Homer" Sterling likes to give catch phrases to all of his little pet Yankmees - i.e. "Bernie goes boom", "An A-Bomb for Arod", and lastly but not least gayly he has been know to say after a Johnny Damon hit, "Positively Damonic".
I just wanted to point out how gay this is as we head into a Mets/Yankees weekend...tune into the Fan, SNY, or the always popular WB if you want to do it up right. It is time to boycot all of the Yankzeera networks.
Well said, gentleman...all of you. There's nothing wrong with getting swept by the Sawx. With a big lead we can afford that little sacrifice for the greater good of burying The Girls. Now, let's just hope Willie Randolph doesn't bunt and hit-and-run us into 2nd place because we have to win it this year. There is no doubt in my mind that Florida is going to own the NL East for 2007 and beyond: Cabrera, Hermida, Willingham, Uggla and all the young starting pitching you want.

Well, the Bosox had this record that was worth going for in the first game of the 3 game Marlins series, the "consecutive games without committing an errror" record, the MLB version, not the AL version. It was 17, maybe. It was totally worth it. I listened to the game on WSAR Somerset and by the ninth inning, it was obvious that it was worth it to sacrifice a point in the season in order to obtain this MLB record.
They committed two errors two days later, so the tension is over. It doesn't have anything to do with Pats 21 and Ben Roethlisberger in its mega nature, but the technical structure is about the same. If one has a record and if one keeps going for it one may as well hold one's breath until the record becomes more important than a really important game, and then that's no good. If Pats had carried a 28 or whatever into the Super Bowl and lost it, because of the record's distracting secondary importance, it wouldn't have made sense, so the feeling in NE was that "we should chuck the record and leave the slate clean, for whatever comes down the pike." Including the Super Bowl championship, as it turns out.
....And then Electric Kazimir and the Devil Rays beat us. Feh.
