Thank God that your "O" stands for opinion, and doesn't actually constitute reality...

Fuck the big apple.

Hey, easy there.  You can't get deli sandwiches or baked goods anywhere else in the world that are as good as the ones in New York.

^^^ 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. Wink

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?

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.
