It was. Jerry Izenberg from the Newark Star Ledger wrote a book about that game with exactly that title.

And that was because he cheated. The #Mets had the scuffed balls to prove it, umpires refused to look at them. Long before Astros players were banging on garbage cans, they had sandpaper.

Remember when politicians - even those you disagreed with - conducted themselves like dignified, mature adults?

I wasn’t paying much attention to the Cameron Winter solo gig film until the NY Times described his delivery as “Rufus Wainwright attempting to cover a Daniel Johnston song.” That’s something that needs to be checked out.

The important thing about the new propagandist press secretary’s credentials or lack thereof as an attorney is that Trump’s name appears in the Epstein files more than 38,000 times.

#MusicChallenge #ArtistFaveNonAlbumSingles 15. An absolute classic, released at a time when a US rock band issuing a 7” 45 with no album to go along with it was all but unheard of. youtu.be/N_5-4VcVV7g?...

Tom Seaver pitched a 10 inning complete game, because back then if you were going to be called an ace, that’s what you did. #MetsSky #LGM

This is why there are those “who’s rooting for who” maps where LA is one color and the rest of the country is a different color.

Just picked up a copy of Paul Weller Dancing Through the Fire, an oral history written with his involvement by Dan Jennings. About 3/4 of the way through it, definitely recommend it. Lots of people participated.

People are claiming that Elon Musk messed with Starlink in Ukraine because Trump asked him. I think a more likely reason is that Ukraine damaging Russian data centers embarrassed Elon by showing how many of his Twitter followers are nonexistent and how much traffic on Twitter is driven by bots.

Also, he became rich by being born rich, then richer through theft and money laundering. That’s not the same thing as making deals.

Our daughter and son-in-law recently moved from the London suburbs to southwestern England, so new areas for us to explore (although we had been to Bath once before when she was doing the study abroad where they met).

Also spent some time in the beautiful city of Bath, Roman Baths, one of England’s most amazing historical sites (covered for centuries, people didn’t know they were there), as well as the impressive Royal Crescent.

This sign would have been somewhere in the Bronx or Harlem, above 149th Street, for what’s now known as a 4, 5 or 6 train. Also includes references to the long gone elevated trains, a/k/a the El.

Here’s another #fridgemagnet. Before the NYC subways became one municipal system, they were independently operated, and what are now the numbered trains (1 through 7) were the Interborough Rapid Transit trains, or IRT. Probably purchased this at the Transit Museum in Brooklyn.

I’m fine with drafting and trading for talent rather than position, but the Mets prospect list is now very middle infield heavy. Some of them are likely trade bait (or maybe there’s a candidate for a position switch to 1B?).

That's because the only qualification required by the orange-pedo was complete and utter loyalty and sycophantic worship.

He was just fine immediately before he arrived and got right again quickly after he left. Of course he didn’t deliberately suck, but he embodies everything going wrong for the #Mets as well as anyone. I’d rather forget he exists.

The Moron and Lunatic in the White House has now declared China and Russia aren’t helping Iran, and that if they were, “we would know about it very fast.” We do know. His own Defense Secretary told senators they are. Trump's covering for Putin and Xi as they help Iran kill American service members
Screenshot of a Truth Social post from Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump), dated 10/12/26 at 7:45 PM, reading: “I see so many comments from the Radical Left Morons and Lunatics that China and Russia are helping the ‘wonderful’ Islamic Republic of Iran. If they are, it’s at a very low level, but I don’t believe they are at all. They have too much to lose, and we would know about it, and know about it very fast! Thank you for your attention to this matter. President DONALD J. TRUMP”

Trump just threw a massive lifeline to Vladimir Putin. And to do it, he’s breaking the law. Back in 2022, Congress banned Russian energy imports. I voted for it. The law says the president has to consult Congress before he changes anything. He didn’t. Illegal. Deadly. Disgraceful. Link below!

And there have been good casts since, but imo, it all boils down to the writing. I think recently it’s been horrible, except for the news segment, they seem to save all the good material for that (the 2 who do the news are head writers).

Fun fact, and apropos of nothing here, during American prohibition, my grandfather George Sheridan was working for the Irish-American mob in some part of the bootlegged booze supply chain. His alias for this job (his professional name if you will) was Mickey Burke.

Aside from Weekend Update, it’s been unwatchable for several seasons now, and same thing for the British version. It’s really just time to pull the plug on it.

Shane Gillis is a misogynist asshole who can f off, but it’s not as though SNL monologues are spontaneous and unvetted. Everyone who OK’d this crap, up to and including Lorne Michaels, has to go.
