O&A Board Regular Registered: Jan. 01 | Hopefully tonight's game will not get rained out because I have tickets to tonight's game. It's going to be a long ass game with Trachsel pitching. As for Clemens, I hope Estes has the guts to throw at his head and knock Clemens the fuck out. Clemens was such a pussy for not pitching at Shea last year. If he was a REAL man, he would have done his job and gone out there and pitch. Instead he hides behind Joe Torre and gets Torre to change the rotation just for him. I have no respect for Clemens. He's a punk that like to throw at star players heads. 2002 Crack Committee Objectives: | ||||

O&A Board Regular Registered: Jan. 01 | Since you say the same crap in more than one thread, I'll repeat my retort here. JohnSlack, self proclaimed baseball expert: quote: Joe Morgan, Hall of Fame baseball player: quote: Dusty Baker, 19 year major leaguer and curent manager of Giants quote: Let's see: who should know more about baseball protocol - someone who posts on O&A.com who can't go a post without questioning people's sexuality, or 2 long time major league former players? Why was Gibson hit 6 times? I don't know, Lets ask Tim McCarver. Notice that no major leaguer has said pitchers are off limits. Don't let facts get in the way of your argument. 2002 Crack Committee Objectives: (modified version)(You gotta try and believe....) 1.Hate the Braves with PASSION and extreme prejudice 1a. Try and go a week without having to punch a wall in frustration after watching the Mets play 2. 90 Wins and somehow get the Mets into playoffs this year 3. All 5 Starters have winning records this year 3a.Have team understand it is OK to get a hit with runners on base. 4. Mets win World Series (after divine intervention) | ||||

O&A Board Regular Registered: Jan. 01 | quote: I won't go that far. Clemens is no doubt a great player, and I don't really think he is "afraid". But he does act like a jerk, and I have no problem rooting for him to get a rotator cuff injury. And don't give me the "if he was on your team you'd root for him" crap. When Phil Esposito came to the Rangers I hated him just as much as before. 2002 Crack Committee Objectives: (modified version)(You gotta try and believe....) 1.Hate the Braves with PASSION and extreme prejudice 1a.

O&A Board Regular Registered: Oct. 00 | Well put Pete, hopefully Slack will realize that he doesnt know as much as he thinks he does. When major league ballplayers, who happen to know more about baseball than anyone else could possibly know in their lifetimes, say that pitchers are not off limits, that says something. BTW, to all Crack Committee members, and Mets fans in general, hope you like the 5th objective :). Thanks to Austin for the pic 1. 94 Wins and NL East Title by the Mets this year 2. Hate the Braves with a passion 3. All 5 Starters have winning records this year 4. Mets win World Series 5. Take at least 2 out of 3 against the Yanks this weekend, with a possible beaning of Roger Clemens :) Crack Committee Members: Cluster F, Rageparty, Bloody Anus, DiamondDust, JayMohrMassage, HammerSavage, PeterDragon, and 1888RustyTrombone...the force is growing. | ||||

Psychopath Registered: Oct. 00 | Two quick comments: A melee on the field might just wake up the bats of Mo Vaughn and Jeromy Burnitz and spark a turning point to the season, or it could turn out to be an embarrassment for the organization. Hey, it could be neither. Like it or not, Yankees reliever Steve Karsay had perhaps the best read on the situation this week, when he commented that judging by the Mets' record, they should probably concentrate on winning a game than getting payback for events that took place two seasons ago. I can see us beating up Pettite in his first start back and if we get up we can knock Clemens around and then Astacio on the hill Sunday. 2002 Crack Committee Objectives: 1. 94 Wins and NL East Title by the Mets this year 2.

Psychopath Registered: Oct. 00 | And one more thing: I can remember like it was yesterday, June 7th 1999. The Mets losers of eight in a row including the first two against the Yankees fell to two games below .500. The coaching staff outside of Bobby V was fired. The next day we beat the Yankees and turned the season around and made it to the NLCS. If this team would get some fucking personality and have fun, then maybe history can repeat its self. 2002 Crack Committee Objectives: 1. 94 Wins and NL East Title by the Mets this year 2.

O&A Board Regular Registered: Jan. 01 | Here are a couple of more quotes for Mr. Slack. Randy Johnson & Curt Schilling - you've heard of them, haven't you? quote: So far its 4 current or former major leaguers who say pitchers can be hit. and only John Slack who says they can't. 2002 Crack Committee Objectives: (modified version)(You gotta try and believe....) 1.Hate the Braves with PASSION and extreme prejudice 1a.

Psychopath Registered: May. 01 | quote: No dipshit, they know WHEN to retaliate. Here is a better example. Clemens hit jeter. what happened? yankees hit a blue jay. Brawl ensues. The score is evened.

Psychopath Registered: May. 01 | PD, if you are going to play cut-and-paste, how about answering this one: AND HOW MANY CAREER ABs DID DRYSDALE AND GIBSON HAVE? Thats what I fucking thought. They each hit hundreds of guys and got plunked what? 5 times? 8 times? and who knows how many of them were retalitory? Dusty Baker is a chickenshit pussy who can't manage in the postseason to save his life. I'd like to see what HE would do if he was managing against a one-man lineup like bonds. Just because those two fucking dolts express their opinion, that doesn't make it fact. quote: --------------------------------------------------------------- --------- Don't let facts get in the way of your argument. --------------------------------------------------------------- --------- I gave you facts. out of almost 400 HBP in the national league last year 2 were pitchers. THAT IS A FACT. To further debunk the myth that the DH rule is something that pitchers hide behind, here are the stats for HBP for the years 1997-2001 Note the amount of pithers that are in or were in the NL CAREER 1997-2001 HIT BY PITCHES HBP T1 Chan Ho Park 65 T1 Pedro Astacio 65 3 Jamey Wright 64 4 Rolando Arrojo 61 T5 Tim Wakefield 57 T5 Randy Johnson 57 7 Aaron Sele 52 8 David Cone 49 T9 Al Leiter 47 T9 Darryl Kile 47 T11 Jeff Weaver 46 T11 Kenny Rogers 46 T11 Pedro Martinez 46 T11 Orel Hershiser 46 15 Omar Olivares 44 16 Roger Clemens 43 T17 Kevin Brown 42 T17 Brian Bohanon 42 T17 Dave Mlicki 42 T17 Darren Oliver 42 THOSE ARE FACTS. not joe morgan that dumb fuck. To show how fucking idiotic that yankee hater is (he hates the yankees so bad because they are better then his big red machine) listen to this quote from the begining of the season. "I really think the mariners are the best team in the AL right now. They added sierra and cirillo. The yankees have lost tino, paul, and scott and really improved at all." What a dumb fuck.

Psychopath Registered: Jun. 01 | quote:As has been said before, the Mets would have had the chance to retaliate had Clemens pitched his scheduled start last year. Unfortunately for all involved, Torre changed his rotation so that Clemens didn't pitch at Shea. The Mets decided not to retaliate against another player that DIDN'T attack Piazza twice. I think that shows pretty clearly who the real pussies are, and who is really showing some class. All they need to do is give him a little bump on the back - message sent. It's not about trying to maim or injure Clemens, it's about saying that this shit better not happen again. quote:As PeterDragon said, even the ex and current MLB players seem to agree that a retaliation against Clemens, not one of his teammates, is the right thing to do. I understand how this goes right over your head, as you're that retarded breed of Yankee fan whose knowledge of baseball is limited to calling the players, fans, managers, and anyone associated with the teams they dislike "fags" and "morons." Bill James only wishes he knew so much about the game. quote:I think the media and fans are concentrating on this issue much more than the Mets are. All it is is one pitch in a nine inning game. In the grand scheme of things, it's practically irrelevant. It's just something that needs to be done. Metal / Wrestling / Baseball Ninja / pr0n | ||||

Psychopath Registered: May. 01 | quote: You have the nerve to bring up bill james? Bill james would be backing me up 100%. WhY? I have provided FACTS and STATS that back up my position, not some quote by noted yankee hater joe morgan. The only reason Morgan said (he is the only one of the quotes that were actually talking about this situation) that was because it was the only thing that would appease the dumb fans such as yourself. | ||||

Psychopath Registered: Mar. 02 | Not to break up the love-fest here. But in the original post, you brought up two things: "Robin Ventura" and "if you go to fight Clemens he will kick the shit out of you" That totally reminded me of when Robin Ventura charged Nolan Ryan and just got the living shit beat out of him. Head Lock, Uppercut, Uppercut, Uppercut. In my opinion, one of the greatest moments in baseball history. It wasn't lies, it was just...bullshit. | ||||

O&A Board Regular Registered: Oct. 00 | That whole game made me want to puke. Everything that can go wrong did go wrong for the Mets today. Bullpen sucked, and the players that have sucked all year who are supposed to produce (Burnitz, Vaughn, Payton, Alomar) sucked. Damn these type of games are why im getting sick to my stomach with this team. And of course, that scumbag, as FB put it, Robin Ventura hit that fucking homerun. It HAD to be him right? Damn at least now i only have to watch 1 of my teams suck ass instead of 3 of my teams at the same time. And now i get to hear that assclown JohnSlack gloat about his team. Bad night all around.

O&A Board Regular Registered: Jul. 00 | quote: If not him, it would have just been someone else. The Mets were not scoring any more runs in this game. They had their one inning of "offense" if you can call it that - bases loaded, one out and get NO hits and 2 runs on a walk and passed ball. Yup, that's productive. But hey, Philadelphia also lost so still got a 3 game lead on 4th place! Also Burnitz got hit in the head. So overall it wasn't that bad a night. hey, I'm trying to remain optimistic here

Hanger-On Registered: Feb. 02 | burnitz getting injured could be the best thing to happen to the mets this season. anyway, how freakin retarded can valentine get? Timo Perez is the best offensive met in the past week and Jay Payton is starting instead of him? Meanwhile Piazza makes some horrible throws once again.... 4.3% base stealers caught...that is just plain pathetic. get rid of valentine already! | ||||

O&A Board Regular Registered: Jul. 00 | The Burnitz injury probably isn't major; he's day to day. The best thing that can happen is it knocked some Milwaukee back into him and he starts actually (gasp!) producing. Payton started today because Andy Pettitte did. Yes, Piazza is pathetic when it comes to throwing out runners. And it's all Bobby Valentine's fault. Yup.

O&A Board Regular Registered: Aug. 01 | Well, I think people are thinking too much about all this Clemens junk. You watch, tomorrow nothing will happen. Just like the Avs/Wings series this year, everyone expected fights and shit but nothing happened. It's going to be a ball game tomorrow. Estes will pitch to Clemens, Clemens will pitch to Estes (and Piazza) Both teams should concentrate on winning, especially the Mets...

O&A Board Regular Registered: Oct. 00 | After last night's loss, i really could care less if Clemens gets beaned or not. It just doesnt matter to me anymore. What we need are WINS, lots of them. Last night was such a hard loss to swallow, hell, if that game was against the Milwaukee Brewers and the same stuff happened it would be the hardest loss of the season too. Just gotta believe that the Mets can take these 2 games. We do have Astacio and Estes going, so we can do this. However, if we get any further behind the Braves, this season may be over by July. How does 22-8 in the next 30 games sound to everyone?? Thats what im shooting for. Thanks to Austin for the pic 1. 94 Wins and NL East Title by the Mets this year 2. Hate the Braves with a passion 3. All 5 Starters have winning records this year 4. Mets win World Series 5.

O&A Board Regular Registered: Jan. 01 | JS You want to know about stats. Stats can often be misleading when taken in a vacuum. That is why sometimes EXPERT testimony is taken. You want another opinion? How about Here is a story by Steve Jacobson which includes quotes from Bob Gibson (from Today's newsday) quote: Why only 8 times? I don't know, maybe he was a great athlete who got out of the way. But notice he says he expected it. So far 5 major league ballplayers have said throwing at a pitcher is part of the game, and NO ONE HAS SAID IT IS AGAINST PROTOCOL. By the way, Bob Gibson, second only to Drysdale in being feared for throwing inside, and he actually hit less people than Clemens in his career. 2002 Crack Committee Objectives: (modified version)(You gotta try and believe....) 1.Hate the Braves with PASSION and extreme prejudice 1a.
