I posted this on another thread. Probably the best video I've found of one of the best moments in Mets history. Watching it made me forget how far we've sunk, if only for a minute and fifty-seven seconds.

Watch it, remember where you were when it happened and try to forget every single Mets related thing that you remember that happened after it.

I suggest watching it with the sound off to ignore the douchnozzles and their "Fan Fest" commentating.

"One compelling offer comes from some seasoned Long Island baseball veterans, who are joining to produce a video on the fundamentals of baseball to help their hapless metropolitan team."

Throw in a "Baseball Management for Dummies" book for Jerry and the old fogies might have something.

"The Mets have talented players, but not necessarily winning players. Jose Reyes has a world of talent, but we’re hearing from Mets insiders that he’s not the type who’s going to get back on the field until he’s 100 percent. Same with Carlos Beltran."

Look at the bottom of page 3 and top of page 4. It gets worse.

I found Amazin' Avenue a few months ago from a link from Metsblog.com. I would always be amazed at how "off" the information contained therein was (like the attached link saying that Jenrry Mejia is 'playing' in the Futures Game) and how the opinions reflected those of a 12 year old without basic logic from both the writers and site patrons.

I've read a few things lately that said that the discourse on MetsBlog was a bit more "inviting" during some of the more heated discussions (Church-Francine as an e.g.). I would attribute that to the fact that you cannot recieve the level of discourse (nor the level of correct information) there that would here.

It still amazes me how SNY could be affiliated with this product that truthfully is no better than any one of us could put out.

Anyone who could dutifully put this on a website, simply does not deserve to have one:

...love the deal…the Mets needed to shake up the roster… the potential francoeur has is much greater than that of church, plus the Mets lose nothing on the defensive side…

…welcome aboard, frenchy…

Ugh...

Thank god for Amazin' Avenue!

More 'sprucing up the Bisons' moves. At least if Omar is focused on that, he can't ruin this team any more than he already has.

Link en espanol...

Does this mean they are not after Halladay? If so, I don't even mind it. It's going to be a little awkward though.

I love Pedro, but hopefully the Phillies get a dose of what we recieved toward the end of his contract.

"If you were Halladay, would you approve a trade to a team that currently is without center fielder Carlos Beltran, shortstop Jose Reyes and first baseman Carlos Delgado? A team that hasn't exactly distinguished itself the past two Septembers?

To get Halladay, the Mets would need to empty their farm system of their top remaining prospects — outfielder Fernando Martinez, shortstop Wilmer Flores, right-hander Brad Holt"

Would you even fathom this? Would this make us legit contenders for the next 2 years? Can we continue to stand pat without me having a heart attack?

Hop in Jenrry, the water's warm...

If you are hesitant to make a trade, rummage the scrap heap to subsidize the roster. This would be a nice pickup for us.

Insert him where you were going to put Tim Redding and DFA him. We already have two long men who are pitching a heck of a lot better and this could keep Feliciano's arm from falling off.
