There is No Joy in Mudville
December 5th, 2011 by slangon

And I’m not talking about the particularly crushing defeat of the Giants by the Packers last night. My beloved Jose Reyes, my favorite player on my favorite team, is now a former player of my favorite team. And to make matters worse, he is now a member of the team that I possibly hate the […]

“Payment” from Project ’62: Part 1
June 27th, 2011 by slangon

Hopefully everyone saw the custom relic card that I banged out for Chris from Project 1962. Also, hopefully everyone saw the video I posted of the actual process of tearing apart the original relic card. Now it’s time to take a look at the envelope full of goodies that Chris used to entice me to […]

Looks Like No More Manny Being Manny
April 8th, 2011 by slangon

Apparently Manny Ramirez is retiring. Something to do with MLB drug policy. Just heard it on the Mets broadcast.

Fire Up the Old Hot Stove
November 5th, 2010 by slangon

Now that the World Series is over and nobody east of the Rockies cares about the Giants unless they’re playing football, it’s time for baseball obsessed folk like myself to start looking at the off-season moves made by their favorite teams. I’m not too sure how much moving and grooving other teams have done so […]

An Appropriate Way to End It
October 4th, 2010 by slangon

Well, the 2010 baseball regular season has come to an end. There was excitement for some, nail biting for others and, for many teams and fans, bitter disappointment. I guess as a Mets fan, I’ve had a few months to get comfortable with the idea of yet another October free of baseball games that actually […]

By the Numbers: Top Eleven Mets All-Stars
July 13th, 2010 by slangon

I can’t believe that the Mid-Summer Classic is upon us already. It seems crazy to me to think that it’s mid-way through the season (actually, it’s 88 games into the season, which is 54.32% though the season). I always hear people complain about the All-Star game, saying how it’s not fun to watch and it’s […]

You Go, Dallas’ Grandma. Also Known as a Non-Story.
May 10th, 2010 by slangon

Normally, I don’t pay too much attention to the American League until it starts getting to that time of the year when a clearer picture begins to emerge as to what teams will be making it to the post season. I also normally get really frustrated when the big news of the day is just […]

Happy Beer Drinking Day!
March 17th, 2010 by slangon

Or as my mom calls it, St. Paddy’s Day. In honor of all the boisterous teens who were cutting school in order to go to the NYC St. Patrick’s Day Parade that were on my train this morning, preventing me from reading my newspaper in peace, and the drunken fools who will inevitably be on […]
