they never bid on Tron
Pedro is true, we did outbid the sox. good pt!
I really meant when both are in play, like they are for Lowe. sorry for being unclear.
Ah, I hear you. Well it’s hard for almost any team to outbid those two.
Didnt we outbid them on Johan? lol
Very tru
they’re like Russia and the US mid cold-war lol. i’m not sure what country that makes us!
The Sox wouldn’t give Pedro the extra year. They knew he would break down. They knew what they were doing!
I guess so in terms of talent. i really meant cash outlays for FA
thats a fair point though cuz the FA contract was really why they both passed. i dont buy it was over talent for a second
i’ll never get why
hahahaha, truuuuuuuuuuuu. and they won a bunch w/o him
But generally I agree with you. If theres three teams wanting a particular player and those teams are the Mets, Red Sox and Yankees chances are they are not going to the mets.
Another fallacy. We didn’t outbid them. The twinks made big demands on the yanks and Sox. neither would blink. Omar was patient….I’ll give him credit for that
If I recall, the Yanks and Sox pulled their offers after the winter meetings.
The twins took what they felt to be the best offer. If we are going to bash, then we need to give credit where credit is due.
tru, but i was really talking cash.
now i think the argument can be made the cash is WHY they backed off but its still a bit different
wow. the uncensored video of NERD’s lapdance song is awesomeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
the skanks have to still be kicking themselves over it.
they’re gonna pay more now for a guy that isnt as good
congrats!
Hughes wont make up the difference
Its difficult I think because ok the mets are a big market team and yes they have a ton of money and yes they are near the top in payroll. The problem it doesnt seem to matter since the sox and yankees have MORE cash so we lose out to them.
Yeah I’m pretty sure the Yankees regretted what happened as soon as the season began.
yup john. they have a bit more and we also have pissed away a ton that could be considered sunk costs.
so when ppl say oh $140M payroll. yea, i mean that’s true, but some of that is already spent and we wont ever see any production from.
Correction…the Twins took the ONLY offer. Lunk is correct. The Yanks and sox had already pulled their offers. The Twins had little choice.
I refuse to believe they didnt want Johan cuz it cost them hughes. bullllshitttttttttt
they didnt wanna pay him
same reason they lost out on Tron
Thank god. honestly. If the skanks wanted they could have Tron and johan right now if they did things differently.
our team would be quite different!
mine!
hahahaha, some schools for young kids are getting rid of F’s….oh boyyyyyyy. the wussification of America continues.

I’m just about out, but I have a request: Depper, get yourself laid this weekend. Several times. For the mental well-being of the board. Thank you. ;-)
LOL, i’ve been getting laid dude.
think how angry i would be if i wasnt
only a few more weeks till the new year, we can make it. hang in there!
Alot of bad mistakes by management :( *sighs
Then I have another request. Abstain. It did wonders for Costanza.
No, scratch that. I couldn’t do that to you.
think about last year
El Duque
Alou
Marlon
Show
+ a few i am missing
That’s probably almost $12-15M right there. doesnt seem like much but that’s 10% of the payroll
we cant piss away money like that.
hahahahahahahahahahahaha. thanks dude.
you know what, i’ll try to take it out on her this weekend. ;)
And the sad part is that we knew it was a mistake at the time. We knew these guys would break down and/or suck.
exactly!!! omar’s fascination with yester-year type players is killer.
and now, in a post-steroids n greenies era, its REALLY KILLER.
i think he’s finally getting it. but it may be too little, too late. we’ll see.
just stay away from electric retard, dude.
OH GOD lmfao
dont worry, i dont believe in violence against women. just rough sex.
Thats probably the big difference between the sox and mets…..the sox used the money wisely, the mets do not.
Do you believe in giant naked Hitler’s shooting rollercoaster cars at Targets?
aaaaaaaaaaaand I’m out. Good weekend, ladies and gents and all the geeks at sea.
LMFAO.
it was on the internet, it must be true!
(no)!
Maddux retires. Goodbye #1 of the over-rated Braves duo.
you too non-satty! catch ya monday.
Don’t forget castillo was out for ages as well. Not that we cared!
Castillo too!
You could throw hitman’s salary on there, he was borderline useless
and i doubt we paid Argenis much, but that was a waste.
Argenis at least was useful defensely. Better than we could say about the other two.
This year we’re paying wags for nothing! Yikes!
tru dat.
at least we dont pay Bobby Bo till 2011!!!!
That sure makes me feel better….lol!
lol shea
wait till we read in a paper in 2011 that the mets wont do whatever cuz of that $1.2 per year coming into play now LOL
so do i bet on the giants this week or not
-7.5, its a tough call
they are 10-2 vs the spread this season. I’m 9-1!!!!
I think i owe it to them. 7.5 makes me a little nervous, stupid stuff can happen and keep the game within that
Beer Me after all this
::throws beer to udamn::
sounds like a plan
I will be trashed in a few hrs
I won’t give you any advice, but I think the Giants beat the spread. I think they’ll try to prove to everyone they can win without Plax. Just my opinion. But who knows. Maybe they can’t win without Plax….lol!
whats the spread of the fins/bills game
I absolutely love the fact that instead of going up to buffalo in the beginning of december, we get to play indoors in toronto :)
I like the logic. thanks. i can dig it.
I think i’m gonna bet, but i’m gonna cut the bet in 1/2 that’ve i’ve been messing with.
if i feel stronger about it tomorrow or sunday, i can always add on.
I can get right now Bills-1.5
What’s up with that guard Miami lost? big loss?
Catches beer and chugs
Its significant. I mean we already lost another starting guard as well, not to mention Camarillo signs that contract and is now out for the year.
Bills have stunk lately tho. I can see us winning. That would be absolutely huge. The next two are san fran and kc before the jet game.

haha weird stuff
Man Ferris State sucks.
Do you get ESPNU bcuster? BU-BC tomorrow night on ESPNU.
I’ll watch the game at BU tonight on my all-access package.
ferris state is usually pretty good, but they are having a down year
you are lucky. no espnu for me. i follow the out of town games on the internet…
When did Pretty Good mean a team that’s made the NCAA tourney all of one time?
you have high standards, future. enjoy ncaah this weekend. i know i will!
I have to tease you. Ferris State has been pretty mediocre for years, besides that one great season in 02-03?
Making the tournament every so often isn’t high standards.
Overrated??? C’mon, Maddux has like what, 12 Cy Youngs? Hardly overrated!
Maddux is easily among the top 5 pitchers of his generation and he definitely had the Mets number in the late 90s.
1st ballot HOF, maybe even unanimously.
concur, I smell an enlarged strike one argument brewing…
His strike zone as Tim mentioned, was about 1.5 times the size width-wise as any other pitcher not named Tom Glavine.
Sorry, that will always be a mark against him in my book. Pitching 6-8 inches off the corner and getting those calls makes you over-rated.
Smoltz to me was the best of the three.
I liked him cause he always had a bad ass 5 o’clock shadow…and he could hit…and field and was an all around good player…..but schmaltz probably had better stuff, and he played puck which is nice
i guess the sioux still have a little fight left in them. crushed hahvahd 10-1…
