Rusch showed no guts during that game, and Hampton, who really shouldn't have done anything in the world series, nevertheless opened his trap but didn't back it up. As for what really matter, the game. I hate to say it, but Yankee players played like winners and Mets players played like losers. biggest example was jeter, who was 0-7 with 6 strikeouts previously against Benitez gets enough wood for a broken bat single tying the game. Alfonzo, previously Mets best hitter with runners in scoring position, can't get ball out of infield with winning run on base. David Weathers, who should be comended for guts for staying in after ball hit him in the face, nevertheless gave up the hits which led to the tie. Final thought - the next Met that takes a head first slide into 1st Base should be fined $10,000.  2002 Crack Committee Objectives: (modified version)(You gotta try and believe....) 1.Hate the Braves with PASSION and extreme prejudice 1a.

How angry were you as a Mets fan: 1) When Payton was picked off after leading off with a single? 2) When Ventura went bye-bye with the game winner in the 10th? I hope the Mets get their "revenge" and plunk Clemens. I also hope it is done in the top of the first with 1 out and 7 runs in!!! Big game for the Braves last night. Red Sox couldn't even help the Mets out. | ||||

Again, I was more upset when Cedeno went slid head first into 1st base. If he just runs, he's definitely safe (he was probably safe anyway). Ventura - this is where I vary with FB & CF. If someone had to get the homer, It might just as well be Ventura, who is a good guy. 2002 Crack Committee Objectives: (modified version)(You gotta try and believe....) 1.Hate the Braves with PASSION and extreme prejudice 1a.

| Hanger-On Registered: Jan. 01 | They are a very poorly coached team. I hope for your sake they fire Valentine and Phillips after this weekend! Cedeno was safe, but it probably wouldn't have mattered. Always run through the bag!!! :) | ||||

| O&A Board Regular Registered: Jan. 01 |  Early comment from a mets fan. Estes did the right thing but executed poorly. He threw at Clemens, but not to hurt him; however I have no idea how you can miss a guy as big as Clemens. The best revenge now was that the run scored because of a Clemens screw-up (not covering home on the bunt). If Mets win by one, hang it on Clemens. Change that: Estes Home run was the best revenge against Clemens. And Piazza's didn't hurt. :-D 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 | Hopefully this is the start of the revitalization period for the Mets. Great offense today, and great pitching from Estes, striking out 11 (although how the hell do you miss Clemens lol). Just goes to show how to really get revenge on someone, with hitting the baseball, not another person. BTW, Mike Piazza = Classy Professional. He hit his homerun and dint say anything to Clemens as he was running like others probably would in that situation. Plus, he didnt say anything to Clemens when Clemens almost got hit by the pitch. Gotta take tommorrow's game though for this series to be a successful one.  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.

| Psychopath Registered: Jun. 01 | Once again, the Mets can't get a damn thing right. They've waited for this moment all week. Clemens steps into the box and what happens.....They miss him. Just another reason why the mets are a poor exscuse of a team. C'mon, how does he miss? Don't give me, Oh he didn't want to hit him. He missed plain and simple. Now go be all happy about beating clemens, you earned it. We'll see you in October.....During our World Series Parade down broadway.... VOS IS ABOUT AS FUNNY AS GETTING A PAPERCUT ACROSS THE TIP OF YOUR MULE AND THEN DIPPING IT IN LEMON JUICE!!!! | ||||

| O&A Board Regular Registered: Jan. 01 | X-filed, No, the mets did what they wanted to do. They wanted Clemens to suffer. They did it by beating him (again). Now its over and done with. They'll never be best buds, but there is no reason for this to continue. Now back to trying to win games. quote:You mean like last year???? :-D 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 like the year before when we mopped the floor with the mets? didya forget that one already? I give estes a lot of credit. He was under a ton of stress, and he pitched one of the best games of his career. This guy always falls apart under pressure. Especially after fucking up and missing clemens (don't start that 'it was on purpose' shit, he said after the game that he missed) I figured he would come unglued. Also I'm sick of all this 'piazza is a class act' horeshit. Class act means calling press conferences and holding grudges and refusing apology phone calls and putting one of his pitchers in such a tough position? And after all that, he says in a post game interview that the situation "isn't over yet." What a disgrace. Sadly, Clemens was more of a class act then him- estes throws at him, and he tips his cap to him and goes on with his business. He knew that estes was in a shitty situation. Once again though I have to give props to the shitty mets. That was the most convincing win they've ever had against the yankees. too bad they can't do it when it really counts. | ||||

| O&A Board Regular Registered: Oct. 00 | quote: Hey dumbass, let me throw a ball at your head and nail you. Then let me call you the next day and "apologize" for doing it. You gonna accept my call? I dont think so, and neither would I. Also, Mike didnt put anyone in a tough position. I cant believe you and Yankee fans like you (notice i said Yankee fans like JohnSlack, not ALL yankee fans, cause i know all of you arent idiots), trying to make Clemens seem like the victim in this whole ordeal. The fact is, he hit Piazza with a pitch, then, he threw a bat at Piazza, which is what Mets fans should be even more incensed about because there is NO EXCUSE for doing that. Ok, finally, this ordeal seems to be somewhat over. I like what Piazza said after the game, joking around about how people talk about closure about this incident like its a marriage or something. Funny stuff. Time to take 2 out of 3 tomorrow, and time for JohnSlack to shut his fucking mouth and be concerned about his boys catching the Red Sox.

| O&A Board Regular Registered: Dec. 00 | quote: What did you forget the game at Yankee Stadium in 2000 when the Mets won 12-2 and Piazza hit the Grand Slam off Clemens? Obviously Clemens didnt forget as he made it his business to throw at Piazza's head the next time he faced him. And isnt it weird how life works. If it never rained on that Sunday Night Game at Yankee Stadium in 2000. Then the makeup game for that day night double header would have never been played. Clemens would have not faced the Mets again, And none of this would have ever happened.  | ||||

| Psychopath Registered: May. 01 | quote: That's pretty hypocritical. That is what the yankees worry about. After yesterdays game I was pissed because we could have been in first place with a win. Now that the clemens thing is over and now the mets don't have anything to take away the focus from their season down the toilet. Try worrying about braves -  Here look through these...see that tiny dot ahead of you? That's the braves. Try catching them. | ||||

| Psychopath Registered: May. 01 | It seemed funny, but once I posted it and saw it (i didn't think they would be that big) I laughed pretty hard. The mets are a second half team, and maybe yesterday lights a fire under their ass. And maybe the bombers crush their spirits today. We'll have to find out - I'm going tonight! | ||||

| O&A Board Regular Registered: Jan. 01 | Slack, is there the slightest possibility that you post something without denigrating the Mets? Most everyone else in this thread has made points within the bounds of class and decency. You never are satisfied to have your team win, you must knock the Mets somehow. You are the only person on this earth who knocked Piazza for holding a press conference. He was hounded by the press, and he held a conference to say to everyone to move on. There is no reason he had to forgive Clemens. Do you think Ray Fosse forgave Pete Rose (look it up)? You are worse than a crybaby loser - you are a crybaby winner. You say Estes fucked up in missing Clemens? Maybe he had no intention of hitting/hurting Clemens, just wanted to send a message which everyone got. Get over it. Your team is a good team. Try and act like them for a change. 2002 Crack Committee Objectives: (modified version)(You gotta try and believe....) 1.Hate the Braves with PASSION and extreme prejudice 1a.

| Psychopath Registered: Feb. 01 | If you are a Met fan and believe nothing is settled, or a Yankee fan who somehow wants to talk shit about the Mets because they "pussied out" or whatever, you ned to be shot in the head immediately for being a dumb ass. Let's see what happened: Roger Clemens was: EMBARASSED: Failing to cover home on the sac bunt, That is embarassing. HUMILIATED: Shawn Estes. Shawn FUCKING Estes hit a homer on him. That's humiliating. LAUGHED AT: Having to come out of the game with an injury (boy, THAT'S rare) after having his lunch handed to him, making him look like a baby who wanted out. (Even if it's not true, it looked that way) And, of course, HAD IT ALL RUBBED INTO HIS FACE: The reason Clemens hit Piazza in the first place was because Mike Piazza was hitting .800 off him with 3,000 HRs. Now, he's hitting .800 off him with 3,001 HRs. It didn't work. In your fucking face, you fatass. And, that, friends, is payback in the sweetest way. We made him look like a fucking pussy on the pitcher's mound. That's better, more difficult, and not as guilt-causing as having him eat out of a tube for the rest of his life cuz we JUST HAD to hit him in the head and kill according to some of the morons out there. As for the jackass who was "sick of all the Piazza is a class act horseshit," Lord knows that would mean the Yankees are the most classless team on the planet if calling a press conference to settle the issue of what his opinion was on the situation and never mentioning it again is called "classless." HAS PIAZZA TALKED ABOUT IT SINCE OUTSIDE OF RIGHT AFTER THE BAT THROWING INCIDENT? IF HE'S SO PREOCCUPIED BY IT AND CLASSLESS REGARDING IT, WHY DOESN'T HE MENTION IT EVERY SECOND SOMEWONE ASKS HIM ABOUT IT WHICH HAS BEEN EVERYDAY INSTEAD OF SAYING NO COMMENT, YOU FUCKING DUMBASS? Geez, some people are so lost it's embarrassing. 1. 94 Wins and the NL East title 2. Hate the Braves with a passion. 3. All 5 Starters have winning records this year 4. Mets win the World Series | ||||

| O&A Board Regular Registered: Jul. 00 | 1. Even though it ended up as it did, why didn't Torre intentionally walk Piazza in the 8th? Runner on 2nd and 2 outs in the 1st and they put him on to pitch to Vaughn. Runner on 2nd and 0 out in the 8th, why not do it again? Blah blah, hindsight is always a cunt, I know. But I still say it was a bad move. 2. Why did Vander Wal not hit for Spencer? Neither has had any success against Benitez, but I would have expected to see the lefty bat. 3. I usually like Jon Miller and Joe Morgan, but hearing them talk about their ties was just awful. 4. :

| O&A Board Regular Registered: Jan. 01 | Well, first off I'd like to say to the Yankee fans that have class, as many do, It was a good series, baseball as it oughta be. Tonight's a perfect example - it could have gone either way. To the asshole Yankee fans who wouldn't know a class act if it bit them in the ass - FU. I was at tonight's game, and obviously I was happy with the results. I do have to say that even though there were about 20,000 Yankee fans in the audience things were pretty civil. There were some fools (the guy behind me yelling at Bernie Williams to steal third with Left-handed Ventura up), but most of the fans represented NY well. Now I won't even think about the Yankees until our next match at YS, and then not again until October. 2002 Crack Committee Objectives: (modified version)(You gotta try and believe....) 1.Hate the Braves with PASSION and extreme prejudice 1a.

You dont put anybody, nevermind the tying run on base with 0 outs. And its not like Piazza killed you, he should have been out if Giambi didnt make an error. So I really dont know where your coming from here. I had the great pleasure of sitting in the section next to the Bleacher Creatures, nothing is worse than hearing their stupid gay chants, but nothing is better than seeing them all shut up and get mocked when Vaughn hit the homer. My favorite chants were "Arizona, Arizona" and "Cablevision, Cablevision". Mo Vaughn made up for 2 1/2 months of shit, with 1 swing. Now we need to take 5 out of 6 from Minnesota and Kansas City and we will be on our way. | ||||

Name ONE other player who called his own press conference after being hit by a pitch. Zero. quote: You're god damn right. This is why yankee fans can't stand mets fans, and rub shit in their faces - mets fans are the definition of sore-winner. The yankees bury them when it counts for a ring, win all the big ones, and the mets win two in june and suddenly their fans are all out to taunt the yankee fans. an obvious inferiority complex.
