I’m cold, tired and very cranky (I know so what’s so different today from any other right?) and I have to leave work early so my wife can work at our kid’s school’s Chinese Auction. From what I gather at this auction you buy tickets and put them in buckets and there are different tables with prizes and if you hold a winning ticket you get to pick a prize off the table in play. Last year she won Rangers tickets and a free pizza every month for a year at a local pizzeria. That free pizza cost me about $50 bucks a month because not once did we go and just eat pizza. So with all that let’s look at the Mets news of the day and some other minutia:

 

Mike Carp has been added to the 40 man roster so he will not be exposed to the Rule V draft. I’ll go on after the applause dies down……………………………….Thank you.

 

Joel Sherman reports on the very flush closers market and so does Jason Stark on ESPN. In fact Stark adds in his report that Pirates closer and the object of my reliever affection Matt Capps could be trade bait. Wait a minute did Stark read that somewhere? Nah , I’m just paranoid.

 

Jon Heyman and Joey DeMayo of NY Baseball Digest say the Mets are in full play for Orlando Hudson. Joel Sherman says Gimp Castillo had a sit down with Omar Minaya and Tony B to beg for forgiveness for being a fat lazy turd and for stealing money and wants to do the right thing by the Mets and show the fans that he is not a fat lazy turd and get back to his All Star level. And to that I say, is the turkey ready yet?

 

Lot of comments on the site from my post about having an old time candy store at Financial Institution Ready to Go Under Field (No I’m not tpying that out every time. I’ll go back to $iti Field next)  I was shocked SHOCKED (Eagle!) of someone not liking chocolate egg creams. How in the world could you not enjoy a chocolate egg cream? The reason they had wine at the Last Supper was because John the Baptist forgot to go to Waldbaums and buy the U-Bets syrup, otherwise there would be seltzer bottles on the alter of churches and gold  chocolate syrup dispensers.

 

Here’s all you need know about the misdirection of the NFL under Goody Goodell. He has no problem reinstating an out and out thug like Pacman Jones and then sits back and does nothing as NFL players show up on the Tuesday police blotters all over the country but if a TV announcer brings up point spreads and that botched touchdown at the end of last weeks Steelers-Chargers game that has bettors screaming FIX Goodell becomes a tough guy. Sure Commissioner, people tune in to watch the NFL because they love the beauty of three hours of  kick, run and tons of commercials for hard on pills it’s not that they wager tens of millions of dollars on the games. Most of it illegally and that money gets funneled down to keep the drugs, booze and prostitution that your players enjoy so much flourishing. I know what you mean Commissioner I enjoy going to Aqueduct in January because I love watch the cute little horseys run around the track.
