    Nice Win… … …

    1. Mr North Jersey

      I guess all wins in the end are nice but somehow I feel nice just doesn’t do this game justice.

      :-D

      1. trs86

        As a friend of mine would say. There are no ugly wins only ugly winners.

        1. Mr North Jersey

          :-D Nice… but clearly your friend wasn’t watching this game. LoL

          1. trs86

            See you are missing the context.

            The WIN was beautiful, Krod, the Umps, Jerry, etc. they were ugly.

          2. Mr North Jersey

            I was kidding as I have been all evening.

        2. stickguy

          as my son likes to say:”Jerry is an idiot”

          Smart kid. he’s a college boy!

          1. Mr North Jersey

            Harvard by the sound of it. :-D

          2. stickguy

            Oh, them’s fighting words to him! That’s his bitter enemy school.

          3. Mr North Jersey

            :-D

          4. GravediggerHebner

            Harvard is ALL the smart schools that aren’t Harvard’s enemy. They’re like the Yankees of smart schools. My stupid school even used to call itself “Harvard on the Hudson.”

      2. stickguy

        well, I always say they don’t give style points. And they needed this win bad.

        get some OBP back in the lineup, and put up some serious runs on on the D Backs. A sweep in the desert, and this lousy series will be a dim memory!

  2. stickguy

    So nice to see the entire Philly pen pitching like K Rod tonight. Hope they don’t come back from 9-3 down in the 8th. But I would not put it past them.

    1. trs86

      All I know is Doc got shelled. 7 hits 6 runs, 2 HR.

      1. stickguy

        his ERA is not much better than Johan at this point. Actually, neither is his record.

        Man, I hope the big contracts to old guys really come back to bite the phils and yanks. And the Phils don’t have the money to buy there way out of them!

        game was 6-3 in the mid 7th, and 10-3 by the time the inning ended.

  3. metsfan4decades

    IDK, nice is not the word I’d use to describe this win.

    But I’ll take a win anyway we can get one – even one the umps hand us.

    I posted this on the last thread…Johan has 8 no decisions this year so far. Five pitching 7 complete innings, one 7 2/3, two 8 innings. I wouldn’t be surprised if Johan just sets his mind to always pitch complete games just so he can get a W.

  4. GravediggerHebner

    In general I think Oakland Raiders owner Al Davis is a schmuck but there is one quote associated with him that I believe in:

    Just Win Baby!

    1. trs86

      agreed.

    2. Mr North Jersey

      Sounds a lot like what the recently deceased Yankee Boss’s philosophy was.

      1. GravediggerHebner

        Perhaps.

        I find it much easier to glorify it when it’s coming in a different sport from a guy across the country.

        1. Mr North Jersey

          Good point.

      2. ceetar

        yeah..Just win. cheat, lie, and inject anything that will get you there.

        1. Mr North Jersey

          Wow hit a nerve i see. LoL

  5. CaseStreet

    Thole!!! Think every time Thole hits a HR Gary should scream “Thole” like “GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL”

    1. Mr North Jersey

      Nice.

    2. trs86

      Well and that would be uh…. never. I like Thole but he’s not gonna get to practice that HR call much.

      1. Mr North Jersey

        Do you always gotta be such a party pooper?

        1. trs86

          Yeah. Hey I am trying to trade for Krod…. seriously.

        2. Mr North Jersey

          LoL Remind me not to ever stand near you with a balloon. LoL

  6. metsfan4decades

    Thank you, Cubs.

    Back in 2nd place. Now if the Braves would just start losing…..

    1. Mr North Jersey

      Was just gonna say the same thing. :-D

      1. Mr North Jersey

        Hey wtf is this Go Cubs Go song i hear fans singing? when did that shyt start?

        1. Mr North Jersey

          HAHAHHA you see thats what happens when you dont get WGN Chicago you miss out on this stuff.

        2. GravediggerHebner

          You don’t get WGN? Wow, I don’t know what my life would be like without I Dream Of Jeannie and The Beverly Hillbillies and Bewitched reruns that I already saw a million times when I was a kid.

          1. Mr North Jersey

            Where I am at we don’t get Superstation WGN just Superstation TBS. Yet from the way you describe it I am not missing much lol.

          2. GravediggerHebner

            IMO you are not missing much. I do enjoy that almost any sporting event they broadcast I can watch without fear of some blackout. And if something newsworthy happens in the Chicago area I like to watch their coverage rather than national they were awesome during the whole Rod Blagojevich thing.

          3. gategem

            And you never saw Barbara Eden’s navel.

          4. Mr North Jersey

            Barbara Eden, man the memories. She def had a naval

          5. GravediggerHebner

            And I could never take the character of JR Ewing on Dallas seriously because he was Major Nelson.

        3. metsfan4decades

          Anytime they play the Phils or the Braves. LOL

          Otherwise, I’m not paying much attention to a team about 10 games under 500. -Unless they’ve got someone on the trading block we’d be interested in. And for some of my fellow fans in the Dugout…that does not include Zambrano…..

  7. DNDJohan aka kistics

    F-in FRod… he’s no longer Krod, but Frod… give that win back to Johan

    Everytime a SP goes 7+ innings and gives up 2 runs or less and team eventually wins for whatever reason, a win should go to a starter. Johan’s record would be like 43-2 this season.

    FROD!!!

    1. njstuckintx

      Frod-oh-no!!!! That was for Grave and his Middle Earth Fetish.

  8. steveo

    Up at 6:30 here (west coast) and the local news is hammering the blown call and complaining how the game should be in protest.
    Anyway 10 o’clock flight to AZ as my west coast world tour continues.
    For this next series I won’t wear any mets logo wear Ill just be the unknown spectator these games are killing me and these opposing fans are as well. The Giant fans were cool the 1st game but by game 4 they thought that they were the world series champs.
