   but i like to make cutting remarks about the toolish undergrad population/grad student population also from big southern schools

   You mean like someone who went to U. of S. Carolina as an undergrad?

   But I swear, I don’t own a seersucker or anything pastel.

   I visited an old HS buddy at U of S Carolina. Fun place. Isn’t it funny that the two colleges referred to as USC are the cocks and the trojans?

    I did wear the official southern frat boy uniform to a couple of football games at USC though - khaki shorts, dress shirt, tie, baseball cap.

    I had tickets to tonight’s game, too. But I couldn’t make myself go. I gave the tickets to a friend of mine. A Phillie phan.

    Wagner has a full no-trade clause written into his contract which means he doesn’t have to go anywhere he doesn’t want to. So if the Mets want to pull Wagner back off waivers and work out a trade with the team that claimed him, they can cross the Phillies off the list right now.

    “Bleep, no,” Wagner said if he would waive his no-trade clause to return to the Phillies. “That was hard enough for two years. You think I’d do that for a month?”

    Quote:
    According to a Major League source, the Red Sox would like to work out a trade for Mets reliever Billy Wagner, who was placed on waivers Wednesday, the day before he made his first appearance in nearly a year after undergoing Tommy John surgery.

    The Red Sox have been monitoring the 38-year-old lefthander, according to the source, and scouted him last night during the Mets’ 3-2 loss to the Braves.

    In his first appearance since last September, Wagner pitched one perfect inning, striking out two. According to one report he was hitting 96 miles per hour on the radar gun.

    SI.com’s Jon Heyman reported this afternoon that one team put in a claim on Wagner, and Florida radio station WFTL 640 reported that the team was the Red Sox.

    While this has not been confirmed, a Major League source told the Globe that the Red Sox do hope to acquire Wagner if they are the team that is awarded the waiver claim.

    Wagner, who has a 2.40 ERA and 385 saves in 15 seasons in the majors, had a 2.30 ERA in 45 appearances for the Mets last season before undergoing elbow ligament replacement surgery.

    Wagner is due a little less than $3 million this season, with an $8 million club option for 2010.

    He has a no-trade clause in his contract, but has indicated he would be willing to waive it to go to a contender.

    Regarding all that arbirtration/picks conversation earlier, erm, never mind.

    I know. I’m a little ashamed of myself. But she is very nice and never trash talks. She even bought me a Mets-related gift as a thank you. Not a typical phan at all!

    billy should be able to get closer to a world series than he’s ever been

28. Comment posted by Bob Loblaw on August 21, 2009 at 6:01 pm (#1064605)

    I remember when Billy was pretty close to a WS. Not sure what happened at that point - I’m too old to remember.

    beggars can’t be choosers at this point! For the record I would have given them to anyone of my friends who asked. (hint: there weren’t many)

    Yup. I still like going to games and I hope to go to more this season. But Phillies? No.

    Mostly, Ed. A lot of silliness, plus some chat about the Mets prospects. And a discussion of Wagner getting claimed off of waivers.

    But largely pure fun.

    Ed, we also debated over Darren Oliver of all people today.

    So in addition to my skank friends rubbing october in my face I have to fear the possibility of Wagz blowing a game for the sox against the skanks as well…..
