However,...Yes it is far down our list of problems. However, this team being soft is nothing new and if they were healthy that would be the big problem. Heck, until Utley took out someone at second this year to break up a DP I hadn't seen a Met try it. If your busy offering cheeseburgers and Hot Dogs to opposing players, chances are you won't go in SPIKES HIGH!!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12468344.post-63876520283491331012009-07-16T15:45:08.499-04:002009-07-16T15:45:08.499-04:00Maybe I'm nuts but I could care less if Wright...Maybe I'm nuts but I could care less if Wright is friendly to these guys during the All Star Game.

Being a jerk to everyone else didn't help Eddie Murray or Bobby Bonilla or, our friend, John Rocker much and there have been plenty of "nice guy" quality players through the years. It really has nothing to do with our problems.schnecknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12468344.post-89760939708222544872009-07-16T09:58:47.729-04:002009-07-16T09:58:47.729-04:00Repoman is absolutely right.

He was HUGGING Ryan Howard after Big HGH won the Derby. HUGGING him!<br /><br />I know it's not an exact quote, but un-nice guy Leo Durocher was right:<br /><br /> NICE GUYS FINISH LAST*<br /><br />*Or in the Mets case, collapse and finish second.kjsnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12468344.post-72977731037694988562009-07-15T13:43:38.367-04:002009-07-15T13:43:38.367-04:00DW high fived him, patted him the but and offered ...DW high fived him, patted him the but and offered to run into the stands to grab him hot dog.

My reasons for why baseball is not what it used to be is as follows, in order:<br /><br />1. Free agency and the increased frequency of players switching teams<br />2. Interleague play<br />3. Late starts for post-season games<br />4. FOX's awful broadcastsUnsernoreply@blogger.com
