Title: Muts choke again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Post by: Denver_Bronco on September 28, 2008, 05:26:26 pm Enjoy the playoffs, Muts!!!!!!!! ;D
Too bad Santana can't pitch every game. Hey, Jerry Manuel, was that ganster??? Jackass....... Title: Re: Muts choke again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Post by: StL FinFan on September 28, 2008, 05:28:19 pm Nice choke job. Enjoy the golf course.
Title: Re: Muts choke again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Post by: YoFuggedaboutit on September 28, 2008, 07:53:45 pm Man, two choke jobs in two years. This is gonna reflect really badly on Willie Randolph and he may never manage another MLB team again as a result. He led the Mets to that infamous choke job at the end of last season, Met's ownership made the mistake of keeping him around, and the Mets were playing like bird shit at the beginning of this season.... which cost them at the end.
If I was the Mets owner, I would've canned Willie Randolph after last season's debacle. You don't pull a choke job like that on my team and expect to keep your job. Title: Re: Muts choke again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Post by: SportsChick on September 28, 2008, 10:37:19 pm Yay Marlins!

I can live with the Philies going to the playoffs. Title: Re: Muts choke again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Post by: Phishfan on September 29, 2008, 08:41:13 am They weren't going to do anything in the offseason without a bullpen anyway. This team didn't deserve to be in the playoffs.

NO PLAYOFFS FOR YOU!!!! Bwahahahaha! I love being spoilers. Title: Re: Muts choke again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Post by: Sunstroke on September 29, 2008, 10:21:03 am Bwahahahaha! I love being spoilers. I'd prefer "playoff participant" to "spoiler" every single time, but...spoiler is at least a small consolation. Title: Re: Muts choke again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Post by: StL FinFan on September 29, 2008, 10:23:01 am They weren't going to do anything in the offseason without a bullpen anyway. This team didn't deserve to be in the playoffs. Neither do the Brewers. Title: Re: Muts choke again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Post by: YoFuggedaboutit on September 29, 2008, 03:14:51 pm Surprised Maine's been silent on this.
Title: Re: Muts choke again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Post by: Dave Gray on September 29, 2008, 05:11:38 pm I take pleasure in having the Marlins deny the Mets a trip to the playoffs. If you can't get there yourselves, might as well knock off a New York team.
Title: Re: Muts choke again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Post by: stinkfish on September 29, 2008, 06:00:18 pm Why so much hate for NYC?
Title: Re: Muts choke again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Post by: StL FinFan on September 29, 2008, 06:05:23 pm ^ Because they think they are the center of the universe.
Title: Re: Muts choke again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Post by: stinkfish on September 29, 2008, 06:13:37 pm They kind of are. They're the capital of the world. IMO

You can't get deli sandwiches or baked goods anywhere else in the world that are as good as the ones in New York. Title: Re: Muts choke again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Post by: Sunstroke on September 30, 2008, 12:13:41 am ^^^ Don't you know that opinion + repetition + volume = fact? I'm certain I read that in my Street Math 101 textbook a long time ago. ;) And - oomph - back on track: I like how half the sports radio talk shows I've heard in the past day and a half have all brought up the "I bet Willie Randolph is happy that the Mets choked" chatter. Are that many people really that petty that often that we now assume "spiteful bitterness" is the default setting? Title: Re: Muts choke again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Post by: EDGECRUSHER on September 30, 2008, 02:18:17 am Can't believe they want to extend Minaya 4 years. He didn't make the playoffs 3 out of 4 years and his payroll has been Top 5 all 4 years. His biggest acquisitions are:
1) Johan Santana - No other bidders, just basically signed a blank check and handed it to Johan. No credit for this. 2) Carlos Beltran - Same here. The Yankees actually were offered Carlos for less money and declined. No credit given. 3) Carlos Delgado - Got him in one of the Marlins annual fire sales for Mike Jacobs, Yusmeiro Petit, some other guy and cash. Good move, but once again he just was the one with a large checkbook. Guys like Wright and Reyes were already there. I am not saying he hasn't done some good moves, but a 4 year extension after ANOTHER collapse? That's ridiculous. Re-sign him for a year if you want, but don't give him a longer deal than a guy like Theo Epstein who only signed for 3 years. Title: Re: Muts choke again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
