Last night was just awful but with a little ray of sunshine. My personnel punching bag Titan Tom Glavine picked a bad time to shit the bed. Titan Tommy has bee n very good the last five starts but last night with a worn out bullpen and a rookie making his first ML start today in Philip Humber, Glavine needed to add to his Hall of Fame dossier and go a strong 7. Instead he threw some very flat and very hittable pitches that instead of hitting the corners were nice and juicy middle in batting practice fastballs that Austin Kerns, Tony Batista and Justin Maxwell launched out of Shea. Great, thanks for nothing Tommy.

Freddy Skill Sets called for a sit down with Omar and Willie yesterday mostly due to his dumb ass son Jeffey spouting off to reporters that he is upset with Omar, Willie and the players for their awful play of late. There isn’t bigger critic of Jeffey Skill Sets that myself but what he said is on the mark. The team has played just a smidge better that mediocre the last three months of the season and should not be in a knock down drag out battle with teams like the Nats and the Fish day in and day out. But Freddy felt he had to make an appearance and smooth a few of the jagged edges. I do think that Willie was told to start using the personnel that’s on hand and stop using Mota and Sosa like they had rubber arms. All of a sudden Philip Humber gets a start and last night Carlos Muniz gets the call (more on this in a second) I have no proof or inside knowledge but both moves to me have the Omar Minaya stamp on them if you ask me. Humber has been here all month and all he has done was get two walk on roles and spit a lot of sunflower seeds in the bullpen. Muniz as well, he comes in a game that was on the line and that’s Willie’ thinking? HA HA. By the way ,as happy as I was to see Muniz get a shot and get through his first big league inning with flying colors, why would you bring him back for a second inning? The kid was a closer all season in Bingo pitching one inning why not be happy with that inning and move on? The kid was charged with two runs due to the fact that Jose Reyes fucked up again in the field not covering second base on a ball hit to Carlos Delgado. I wish I knew what was up with Reyes but I do know that blaming it on Rickey Henderson is bullshit. So we can’t criticize Willie for mismanagment of game situations but we can rip the shit out of Rickey the first base coach because he’s close to Reyes? Only in Metsville does that make sense.

Oh and to Bill Madden, a man who when I see him on TV or hear him on the radio just makes my skin crawl as he reminds me of someone you would find Chris Hansen interviewing on Dateline (we have the transcripts here Mr. Madden isn’t your screen name Pinstriped Penis?) who thinks we are all idiots for questioning Willie Randolph’s in game screw ups, how about you take it up with Gary Cohen. Here is why I love Cohen, he’s one of us. Born and bred Mets fan and no wallflower is he. He questioned, and rightly so, the use of Muniz for two innings and why Scott Shoenewiess was (a) not in the game to face Brain Schneider and (b) if Randolph is not bringing him in why is he up and throwing? In fact Schoenewiess was up a couple of times in the seventh and this is something that pisses off relievers, up and throw, sit down, up and throw, sit down. I bet if you put Omar under the hot lights he’d agree too with Cohen. In fact just listen to Paul LoDuca when he is on WFAN when questions over strategy and handling of the pen comes up. It’s not what he says it’s how he says it that speaks volumes on how he’s not thrilled with Willie.

Please Mets fans I’m begging you PLEASE STOP DOING THE TOMAHAWK CHOP!!!! YOU LOOK LIKE TOTAL ASSHOLES DOING THAT. JUST PAINT A BIG “L” ON YOUR FOREHEAD FOR “LOSER” I thought doing the wave was awful this chopping bullshit beats that.
