advantage. It's ok it's one game. I really can't get too excited over win streaks in April and being in first place now. I want to be relevant when they play each other in September.
Bigblueshock is a self conscious moron. Franscesca puts it perfectly when he states how bad the situation would be over there if it weren't for the 2009 championship. THis is why I am glad there is a salary cap in football. How excited can you really even get when you win but you have the highest payroll?
Think about making your MLB debut under those conditions. That was impressive. Steven Matz carrying a no hitter into the 7th with 2 outs. That was encouraging. Long term, those events bode well for the future
Just the comments. I don't get nor will I ever get why fans care so much about a team spending the money to win a championship, it's not like it always ends up working. And I believe that the Dodgers have the highest payroll this season, could be wrong
you are a smart guy. When you(not you in particular) guys throw 27 Championships in our faces, we come back with highest payroll. You got to be able to take it if you are going to give it. It is all meaningless bullshit anyway. Those with thin skins will react, those with thick skins will laugh it off
them. Why wouldn't a cap work in baseball if it works in football? The Mets pissed me off just as much when they were up there and just spending the wrong way. The Yankee championships in the mid 90's were so much more legit because the core was homegrown guys. Baseball is just getting ridiculous with these payrolls. I know I got off topic. My bad.

No worries, I hear ya. Wish the Yanks would find a way to assemble a team like they did in the 90s (spoiled Yankees fan I know)
see any of the game or replays of the home runs yet.
But ESPN's home run tracker says Teixeira's home run would have been a home run in all 30 parks on one and 21 out of 30 on the other. They have the true distance of one at 361 and the other at 375. The Ellsbury homerun according to that tracker would only have been out at YS, no other park. So it sounds like the only one to even somewhat bitch about was Ellsbury's, not Teixeira.
So those were not the result of "little league" ballpark, and calling it that is pretty dumb anyways considering the park does not play that way as far as runs scored goes since it's opened. Is it a pitchers park? No, but it's not an extreme hitters park, either.
Sounds like DeGrom just had a bad game for you guys, lame to hear excuses about the park when it seems Ellsbury's was the only one that was a result of the park. He had a bad game, big deal. Mets are still better than the Yankees, despite this one game. And they will be better for a while.
I'm so glad that you found the time at 4AM to find your way over to the Mets thread. And I couldn't care less about your explanation but thanks for taking the time.
As far as this entire thread, there should be no "lame excuses to hear" because there is no reason for you or any Yankee fan to be on this thread. In fact, the ONLY reason any of you guys are here is because you get your panties in a bunch any time a met fan disparages the Yankees and you are just looking for the time to pounce. THE HORROR!!! This, in itself, is lame. A lot more lame than a met fan complaining b/c his team is getting lit up. It happens. Yankee fans bitch about stupid shit too. And the fact that you have a self-appointed Yankee deputy (BBS) threatening to stand over us to make sure we stay in line for todays game is creepy, lame, douchebaggery and every bit the reason why people hate Yankee fans. No mets fans were starting any shit on the other thread. And there's the difference between met and yankee fans.
Read this thread. There were THREE (3) comments made before you guys started to come over here in droves. 98% of this thread is us arguing with your dickhead brethren to get off this thread. As always, you guys bring this shit on yourselves and then bitch about the Mets fans. There is absolutely no reason for this thread to have gone the way it did and no reason for Yankee fans to preach to us on how to be Mets fans. It's real simple...you don't want to "hear" it, then don't come onto the METS fans. I don't go on to the Yankee game threads because I don't like to hear the dickhead comments from you guys. Which, by the way, started on the Didi thread before our series even started. So spare me the hypocrisy and just stay off the Mets thread.
And just to clarify...there were three comments made AFTER
which you guys clearly did and you will be called on it. Labeling something a Mets thread doesn't give you a free pass to say whatever the fuck you want to, this is a message board, I can go on any thread I want. I brought something to the discussion, something called facts, to refute something Mets fans say every damn year. You don't like it? Too bad, I don't give a fuck.
and comment? He didn't say anything inflammatory he just shared what he heard from ESPN.
Now as for others Yankee fans coming to a game thread during the game and getting upset about what Mets fans might post about the Yankees or their stadium in the heat of the moment is just immature and pointless. But truth be told Mets fans getting worked up over someone doing so and getting responding in kind is equally pointless.

Fuck you, Mook. Stay off our fucking thread, tool bag.
You - and you other fucktard Yankee fans - is trolling, pure and simple.
Keep inciting shit, if you want. Fucking loser....
Its amazing how thin skinned you guys are. Truly amazing.
Bringing facts to refute a point you guys make every single year every single time the Yankees hit a home run at YS makes me thin skinned?
I'm fully aware how much better the Mets are and will be going forward than the Yankees. Rip away on the actual team all you want, I still dont think they are any good.
I can go back over the past couple of weeks and pull up arrogant posts from you guys directed at Yankee fans when you weren't even playing the Yankees.
Please do that, spend the rest of the day going through thousand of met/yankees posts from the past few weeks and post every single one here. Put your $ where your mouth is tough guy.
I'm "inciting" Mets fans by bringing facts to the discussion. I know that's something difficult for you to understand, speedy.
This is a message board. Only fucking pussies label threads "Mets fans only". And really it's just a few of you, 99% of Mets fans can handle it.
I'd hate to see how you'd react if I actually did troll.
Bringing facts to the discussion does not equal trolling. I know that's a foreign concept for you though, because the next thing you add to a discussion will be the first on this board.
It's more so fans can talk about their team without arguing with the
other. I went on the other one a couple times last night because it was actually civil. The mets one was worse than the thread that invited both fan bases.

Here's a suggestion
Build a farm system
It takes time, good scouts and commitment rather than throwing money at people took the time to develop
Stop whining
