When Jerry Manuel took over the managers office form Willie Randolph, the one statement he made that resonated with Mets fans was that his team would be tough and fight through whatever adversity was in front of it. His quote was “Gangsta’s on the field, Ladies on the bus”. I thought it was a great [...]

Because I just bought ticks for Opening Day, Mets-Marlins April 5th at $iti Field.
Now as ecstatic as I am to have gotten tickets via the Mets.com early ticket sale offer, I’m surprised how fast I got the tix.
The pre-sale tickets started at 10AM but I had to go out and do my off day errands [...]

By Steve Keane at 28 February, 2010, 1:51 pm

Blue Sky, sunshine, what a day to take a walk in the park.
Ice cream, daydream till the sky becomes a blanket of stars.
What a day for pick-in’ daisies and lots of red balloons.
And what a day for hold in’ hands and being with you.
Lot’s of stories coming out of Camp Kumbaya where everybody is in [...]

SATURDAY IN THE PARK, IT SURE AIN’T THE 4TH OF JULY

By Steve Keane at 27 February, 2010, 10:50 am

Some quick hits for a snowy Saturday:
Growing up in a full blooded Irish household, we were always taught to never ever air your dirty laundry in public, so I guess that’s why I have such a hard time finding sympathy for Steve Phillips. Phillips yesterday spent a full two hours on Mike Francesa’ WFAN radio [...]

3 days ’till pitchers and catchers
So how did you spend your Valentine’s  Day ? Me? I spent mine at Madison Square Garden with my three Valentines watching the NY Rangers play their last game before the Olympic break.
Needless to say, I had a better Valentines Day than this guy, who supposedly was proposing to his [...]

AUGUST 4, 1975: WHAT THE HELL WAS YOGI BERRA THINKING ?

By Steve Keane at 12 February, 2010, 2:08 pm

After a day of trudging through the snow, slush and ice of the sidewalks of Lower Manhattan, little did I know what a wonderful reward was waiting for me when I got home, SNY was showing the 1975 Mets Yearbook and a name from the past that only Mets fans of a certain era would [...]

BELIEVE IT, THIS IS A GREAT CAUSE!!!!!!

By Steve Keane at 12 February, 2010, 10:05 am

There are two thing Mets fans and Phillies fans can agree on, one is their hatred for one and other and the other is their love for Tug McGraw. Just the mention of the name of the great Mets/Phillies reliever could make two hated rivals smile and give each other a warm embrace; such was [...]

“NEW YORK IS WHERE I’D RATHER STAY, I GET ALLERGIC SMELLING HAY”…..

By Steve Keane at 11 February, 2010, 11:42 am

 7 days until pitcher and catchers
The Mets off season reminds me of the old TV show Green Acres. Remember, Mr. Haney the guy who sold a lot junk to the residents of Hootersville? Well that seems to be who Omar Minaya has morphed into a purveyor of useless pieces.
