Well let's see how long this delay takes.

Greg Cohen said...

It's bright and sunny by me, and I'm right by the GW Bridge. It can't be that bad at Shea right now.

Greg Cohen said...

4:20 p.m. first pitch.

The Mets really make me laugh with all their excuses. No matter what goes wrong with their team there is some stupid excuse. Tipping pitches my ass, Pedro is just washed up.

Greg Cohen said...

Note to Yankees: Jump on his fastball early in the count.

More excuses from the Mets, they've been terrible because of the "cloud" of Willie Randolph and his job status hanging over their heads. What bullshit.

God dammit another delay

Greg Cohen said...

Dear God, Mother Nature, and whomever else it may concern,

Please give us a rainout/win.

Thank you.

Damn it!

Greg Cohen said...

Ballsy move to keep Pettitte on the mound. Hopefully it works out.

Why is Wilson Betemit on this team?

God he sucks.

Anonymous said...

Great job by the farns.

Greg Cohen said...

Yea he sure did do the job there, and against the 2-3-4 hitters too. I'm very pleasantly surprised.

Oh, and I have no idea why Betemit is on this team.

Another W in the books.

Greg Cohen said...

Yes indeed, and what a win it was.

Great job all around today. Let's take the series tomorrow.
