Well, 25 teams finish behind us. I have a felling this year will be different. The bullpen is better than any of the teasms the mets have faced.

Somewhere in ny attick there is a book written by a NY Daily News reporter on the history of the Yankees. They have always bought the best teams. In fact, when Mr. Rupert owned them the Kansas City team was like their farn club according to the book.

It is a travesty what the team has done to salaries in the last 10 years. I do like the Mets though, David Wright impresses me every time I see him play and Reyes runs like lightning.

Not bad for a sub-.500 team. Before you know it they may pull a few games ahead of the Orioles.

It goes back way longer than ten years. I just hasn’t worked for them for the past 5. But they have skewed the market way out of whack.

They already did. Had to ask NYC for more money to finish. Now they ask so much money for tickets they can’t fill it.

Who cares about the Skankees. They currently have the worst team ERA in the AL. If they win this year, the accomplishment will be tainted due to the presence of
A-Roid and drunks like Chamberlain. I don’t like any teams east of the Mississippi River, but am pulling for the Red Sox to finish higher in the standings than the Skankees.

Ummm...I did read the post. Along with the others in the thread who also commented about the choice of language before you stumbled along.Perhaps you should take your own advice and read before you post. See where it says "post 19 removed by moderator"?

Try to keep up, ok?

The most embarrassing thing about that stadium is the few people willing to shell out $1500 a ticket for the good seats

Post #19 should have been enshrined as an all-time classic.

Indeed. If there is a hall of fame for that kind of thing, that post was a first ballot shoe-in

I hate the yankees!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Th Twins acted like scared girls out there today. I’m still pissed about the loss.

We’re likely going to be swept.
