Mets Hitting

Wait, I gotta watch that again...

A letter to Facebook and a broom for the Dodgers

So I've been sending emails to Facebook with the hopes of getting my facebook account back... so far is not working! On the brighter side of things, the Mets have swept the LA Dodgers on the double header today. First time since 1971 ...that's good stuff. Everything seems to be good in the Met Universe...Wright has started to hit, Bay is hitting, Reyes is his old self ...Now, if I can just get my Facebook account back I would be all set.

Facebook ____, Zynga ____.... hmm the Mets are winning.

It has been just about a year since a friend of mine got me hooked in to facebook, what's worse, he got me hooked to MafiaWars.. great game with awful developers and programmers. Ever since I got hooked on the game I made a promise to myself that I would not watch another game until the Mets started to win.. of course my rants and raves did not last long..I still followed with one eye closed.

If there's one thing I've learned is that turning your back on your team is a bad omen. Don't get me wrong, I made some very good friends in facebook but after spending a couple of thousand dollars on the game and getting harassed by facebook's ass-backwards TOS and getting my account disabled... it has come to this. I'm back to follow my team full time. Back to writing on my tiny little, decrepit blog.. back to buying baseball cards... -I wonder if I can get a nice Ike Davis rookie card ?- And YES! It's good to be back.. it's good to see CitiField's crispy green field.. it's nice to hear fatso on the radio kill the Mets... it's great getting those gut wrenching feelings.. "will they win the game today" ? Ahhh yes, just like good old times.

Now, if you excuse me, I have to check out that Ike Davis baseball card.

Google Mike Francesa Sucks..

I'm starting to hate him, yes I said HATE.

The feeling is mutual

After listening to Fatso and the Dog for many years I constatly wished that they would just go away. I got half of the wish sometime ago when the odd looking dog left for satellite radio. If only the other half of the wish would just come true.

I really do not understand what the NY METS were thinking when they renewed the contract with the FAN.. I mean, the abuse they constantly take from Mike Francesa is just unreal..... He's always right, he knows the law, he has friends all over, he's a Yankee spokesman, shits on the Mets every chance he gets, the fans are imbecils, he does no wrong...

Sometimes I wish I could just slap the shit out of this guy. The "almighty" Mike Francesa... I hope you don't drop from a heart attack, Jabba. That would be, how do you say, dissapointing!

It's the little things...

Joe Benigno is the funniest, painfully looking man on TV... I just crak up every time he whines about the Mets or the Jets.. it's freaking awesome. Ohhh the Painnn...

Healthy and Happy... can't ask for more.

Every so often I have to remind myself that being healthy in company of my family is the most important thing I can ever ask. That and of course a job to feed my family. Christmas is here and while some of us are caught up in the present shopping frenzy we must not forget why we celebrate this day. The birth of baby Jesus. It's definately the most amazin' of all holidays.

My boss sent an email out today wishing us a happy holiday. In it, he points out to keep "things in prespective." That nothing is as big as it seems. Simply give 100% and things work out at the end. I liked that message. I try to remind myself of that everyday. It makes life a lot easier and enjoyable.

Merry Christmas!
