I don't know..maybe Torre doesn't like a few guys on the team this year, so he's gonna root for Benito Santiago and Reggie Sanders instead.

1. 74 Wins, 4th place in NL East for Mets this Year 2. Hate Mo Vaughn & Jeromy Burnitz with a passion

| They were afraid of big bad bonds hitting more home runs off of their pitching staff. Pitch to the guy geez.
2002 Crack Committee Objectives: 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 Series5. Roger Clemens finally steps into the batters box at Shea. |

| There job is to win the game, not to entertain the fans. If walking Bonds gives them a better chance to win than thats what you do.
Now if the game was out of hand and they walked him,then that would be a different story.

| Well then, I guess Bonds is going to break his own record for walks in a season again this year.

| Well it was definitely worth walking him. The Yankees won and the Red Sox lost. They picked up a game in the standings. Why be stupid. Heck, Arizona a couple years ago walked Bonds with the bases loaded and up by 2 runs and ended up winning the game by 1.

| All I'm saying is that they walked when the game had barely started .... They intentionally walked him in the 3rd inning I mean come on ....
In every other sport they have rules to avoid this kind of situation ....

| side topic:
I didn't watch the game - what were the circumstances that Clemens hit Bonds? Were all of the walks intentional, or were some just pitching around him?
Dusty gave impression that Clemens hit him intentionally instead of intentionally walking him. I know Bonds crowds the plate, but with Clemens spouting off about the body armour, and all of the other walks, I wonder.
Bonds usually refuses to swing at balls no matter how close. Reminds me of old saying about Ted Williams & Joe Dimaggio; they used to say if runner was on 3rd with 1 out Ted Williams would lay off close pitch and take a walk; Joe D would swing and hit a sac fly.

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) |

| Clememens said he might hit his body armor. Bonds was crowding the plate. Just because Clemens said something they made a big deal. It would have been a strike if Bonds did not crowd the plate.
They gave him nothing to hit and ended up walking him most of the time. Bottom line is they won. That is not something the Mets can say they have been doing much of lately.

| Clemens hit him once .... and he was intentionally walked 3 times .... not just pitched around .... twice by clemens and I cant remember who else ....
And as for other sports ....
You can't just take someone out of the game like that .... Basketball to take someone out of the game you would foul when he got the ball but after a few fouls you would be in the penalty and he would get free throws .... and unless it's Shaq he will probably get some points out of it ....
In football in hockey you can't just hold someone so they can't do what you want .... there are penalties ....
I gues what it comes down to is that in all other sports you actually have to stop someone to keep them from beating your team ....

Now THAT'S uncalled for. True, but uncalled for ;)
If Clemens threw an inside strike & it hit bonds fine. If he hit him as opposed to throwing an intentional walk, it sucks. I didn't see it, I was just asking.

| Actually, What Clemens said was in reference to when they played against each other in college - if you look real close whenever they quote clemens on it, there is always a ... or a 'to' outside the quotations, changing the meaning of what he said. Talk about journalistic integrity..
Even worse are the PUSSY PUSSY FAG FAG mets who are big enough to call clemens a puss, but only as "one met" and "another met." You are calling someone out about being afraid, but you are afraid to have your name published? what hypocritic fags..
Its bullshit and bush if they hit clemens. period. thats not how baseball is played. If piazza or anyone else from the flushing fag squad had a problem, they could have visited roger on the mound - thats how its done in baseball. that or throw at jeter. You don't take the pussy way out and hit the pitcher two years later. I really hope they do throw at clemens and he beats the fuck out of estes.
they did a poll on Wfan today and more mets fans would rather be swept and have clemens hit then sweep and nothing happen to clemens. it seems the mut fans have caught red-sox-itis and are doomed to centuries without a ring. Once you start worring about the yankee and NOT WINNING FUCKING GAMES, you are screwed.

That's f'in rich. I was going to leave this alone, but after all the past quotes you've spouted about how it is a pitcher's right to pitch inside, don't give me crap like "that's not how baseball is played". You can't have it both ways. If you dish it out, you can't bitch when you get it. As long as they just dust him or plunk him in the ribs, Clemens has nothing to bitch about (unlike his choice of targets.)
As for WFAN polls, they are idiots - whether Mets or Yankee fans. Intelligent people aren't going to respond.
Your the one who keeps calling Mets "fags".
Me thinks thou doth protest too much.
Do us all a favor and keep to your own team. After all, you are such a wonderful representation of a sophisticated Yankee fan.

PeterDragon, I have been following this thread and as a Yankee fan I have to agree with your argument. You have made your point well.
But the Mets are still fags. :-D :-D :-D

Thats not the point, dipshit. I didn't say hitting people is not part of the game, I said hitting a pitcher (which is a big no-no anyway) TWO YEARS after the fact is bullshit. I guess you've never played baseball. This is how it works. If someone hits one of your players (say for instance, piazza) you hit someone of equal stature on the other team (say tino).
Do you get it yet? Pedro earned his reputation as a headhunter in the NL with the dogers and expos. You did see him getting beaned there. Why? TEAMS DON'T THROW AT PITCHERS...the only time its acceptable to throw at a pitcher is if your pitcher was hit. This whole DH crap has NOTHING TO DO WITH IT. The correct protocol was to throw at tino, which they did. That is over.
I have no problems with a pitcher pitching inside, or hitting a guy to get him off the plate if he leans over it.

| Back to the whole "body-armor" thing. Who else thinks they should ban those fucking elbow pads? Remember that fucking thing Mo Vaughn wore (wears?)? If you want to crowd the plate, fine, but you should be risking something to do it, like mobility in your glove arm...
As for not being able to pitch around someone? What an asinine argument. In other sports you're PENALIZED for basically taking someone out of the game. In baseball you are too. A man on base is a potential run. Especially Bonds, who can run and steal. That's a big fucking risk.
It wasn't lies, it was just...bullshit. |

| All I'm saying is that in every other sport you can't just avoid someone like they did .... I could understand if he had already hit a HR or two in the game but come on I was stating they were pussies about avoiding bonds, not doing something Illegal .... not to mention clemens was on the mound, who is still one of the best pitchers in baseball .... and in every other sport you can't just keep someone out of the game like they did .... and if it is so great that they did it then why every time in the series they IBB bonds did the whole crowd at yankee stadium boo ....

And to John Slack .... I don't think you ever watched a game that pedro pitched while he was in Montreal because they threw high and inside on him all the time .... that is why he gets respect is because he did it even though he knew he would be coming up to bat later in the game
