People who think computers play baseball will say the Angels are down 2 games to 1. But computers don't play baseball. And when you have a teammate like Derek Jeter, and you see the way he goes about his business and how calm he is after a game like that, it's like you've won. So the computers may say the Angels are down just one game, but if you're in the Yankee clubhouse you feel like you just won two games. That's the kind of player Derek Jete --
I'm sorry, I came down here and Joe Morgan was futzing around with my computer. (Who even knew he could type?) Joe, you can see yourself out. We're not here to talk about whatever the heck just happened involving an evil team in a league that doesn't play real baseball. No, we're here for the 5th annual admission of a new class of Mets into The Holy Books.
Brief review for newcomers and the similarly obsessive: I have a pair of binders, dubbed The Holy Books (THB) by Greg, that contain a basebal...

Ex-Met Hernandez No Longer Livanin’ The High Life
2009 has been a year to forget for, former-Met, Livan Hernandez from a personal standpoint.

Bosom Buddies: A Correspondence With Melissa Lima
This job, unlike many others in "sports media," provides plenty of absurd scenarios on a weekly basis. But this one, involving Jose Lima's ex-wife, Melissa, thrusts us headlong into Eugene Ionesco territory. You see, Ms. Lima emailed this site last Wednesday night in an effort to help provide you, boob-ogling reader of the fortnight, with more photos of herself: Since...
Mets Aren’t The Only Team That Peaked In 2006
Three years ago today, Carlos Beltran got a good look at an Adam Wainwright curveball and the Cardinals went on to the 2006 World Series. (I have spared my fellow Mets fans from having to see that picture by showing you a photo of Beltran hitting a home run against the Cardinals instead.) After that [...]

IF THIS POST SEASON HAS PROVED ANYTHING, IT’S WE’RE NOT THAT FAR BEHIND
I have to confess, I haven’t thought about the Mets offseason plans too much lately. What with the Giants and Rangers playing lights out and the Celtics getting ready to start the season with so much fire power a date with the Hollywood Fakers in the Finals looks inevitable. After a summer of dread and negativity I’m enjoying my fandom prosperity. But an item this week caught...
What Have You Learned? Brian Schneider
What Have You Learned is our very special off-season series that will outline what you've learned, what I've learned, and hopefully what the 2009 Mets have learned about themselves, others, and 2010. Today, we look at Brian Schnieder, and most likely jinx his very existence.I pretty much knew it was a lost cause when I led off my "Behind the Blow" series by writing about Scott Schoeneweis...
Sterling Equities Inc. made money off Madoff scheme, may be sued for it
