MetsGeek Caption Contest - Vote!
by: Eric Simon on Dec 10, 2007 12:15 AM | Filed under: Contests

There’s nothing better to pass the time in between inexplicable trades than a good old-fashioned caption contest. We will leave the contest open until Wednesday, 12/12 at midnight (technically 12/13). The best captions will then be polled up for a vote, which will end on Friday at midnight (technically Saturday). All times are EST.

The winner will receive a copy of MLB Vintage World Series Films - New York Mets 1969 & 1986 on DVD.

Please keep it clean, folks. You can be suggestive, but we’re trying to keep things remotely family-friendly here.

And… go!


UPDATE: Here are your finalists. Voting closes at midnight EST on Sunday (technically Monday). Good luck!

    Hey Omar, You trade that gangbanger thug Milledge yet.

    Hey Cash, too bad you were so tied up in the Santana discussions, I was going to offer you Milledge for your worst player.

    I dont see the Big deal in this picture. Its
    unfair, judgemental, and extremely stereotypical.
    Siamese twins are people too and you guys need to accept them
    for who they are :(

    Hey Omar, I was wondering if your organization was looking for anymore medicore players with no upside; give us F. Martinez and Caros Gomez and we’ll call it a deal.

    Are you SURE you weren’t an All-Star ten years ago, Brian?

    Because I suddenly want to sign you to a contract.

    Oh, hell YES, it’s long-term.

    Veeeery long-term.

    No, not in that pocket. No, not that one, either.

    The front one.

    A huge awkward moment was replaced by a smaller one when Omar realized Brian doesn’t keep the deeds to his pitching chips in his coat, but he was saved by Brian’s return of affection.

    Every night you come into my room and pin me down with your strong arms, And pin me down and I try to fight you, You come inside me and fill me up and I become the Cashman.
    It’s just two men sharing the night. It might seem wrong, but it’s just right.
    It’s just two men sharing each other. It’s just two men like lovin’ brothers.
    One on top, and one on bottom. One inside, and one is out.
    One is screaming he’s so happy and the other’s screaming a passionate shout.
    It’s the Cashman. The feeling so wrong and right man, the feeling so wrong and right man.
    I can’t fight you man when you come inside me and pin me down with your strong hands and I become the Cash… the passionate, passionate Cashman.

I get Johan Santana, for Mets home games, you get him for Yankee home games. We’re already scheduled to not be in the city at the same time. Everyone wins.

    Cashman: We can flip a coin to see which Subway Series Games he’d start!
