“TIS THE SEASON TO HATE THE SKILL SETS TRA-LA,LA,LA LA LA LA LA

By Steve Keane at 22 December, 2009, 10:45 am

 

 
So Jason Marquis signed with the Washington Nats for 2yrs/$15 mil. It seems the Mets were adamant about Marquis signing for minimum of 5 yrs/$40 mil.
 
Of course if the Mets signed Marquis for the same deal it would have been very nice but let’s not make him out to be Don Drysdale, okay, he’s a [...]

BLOGGING CALLED ON ACCOUNT OF LACK OF INTREST

By Steve Keane at 8 December, 2009, 12:02 pm

 
 
I don’t know about you but I’m getting a massive headache trying to decipher what the hell the Mets plan is for the off season.
 
Omar has gone on TV and print preaching pitching and defense and I scream at the TV YES OMAR YES! !!!  then I read the tons of minutia coming out of [...]

REMEMBERING WHEN THE DOCTOR WAS IN

By Steve Keane at 15 November, 2009, 1:00 pm

Wayne Coffey in today’s Daily News has a great two page story on Dwight Gooden and his road back into baseball and leading a life free of drugs and alcohol. Coffey zones in on Doc’ 1985 season which is one of the greatest pitching season in baseball history. I love that Coffey mentions that the [...]

I WENT TO A GARDEN PARTY, TO REMINISCE WITH MY OLD FRIENDS……

By Steve Keane at 24 September, 2009, 10:53 am

 
 
 
I can’t let go so off I went to $iti Field last night. It was like a “Let’s remember the 70’s” kind of night at $iti. Parking was plentiful, concession stands were closed, the stands that were open and manned by incompetent “hospitality” staff and the stands half full. It brings a tear to my [...]

ENJOY IT, SUMMER DOESN’T LAST FOREVER

By Steve Keane at 18 August, 2009, 10:03 am

 
 

 
I must admit, I didn’t watch much of the Mets-Giants game last night and from the looks of things I didn’t miss much. One thing I did notice and I kind of noticed this on Saturday, $iti Field is not exactly packed and jammed.
 
Remember back when the plans for $iti came out and it was [...]

GREETINGS FROM THE HOUSE OF MOUSE

By Steve Keane at 3 August, 2009, 7:53 am

Just have a minutte here to say hi from Disney World. Saturday I listened to Angel Pagan hit that 8th inning granny that proved to be the game winner. I see last night Big Pelf was not on his game and tonight Nelly Figs is back and starting.
I see I struck a nerve with my [...]

COUPLE OF QUICKIES

By Steve Keane at 13 May, 2009, 12:41 pm

Larry Jones needs to shut the fuck up, Beltran was safe at 3rd. Finally the Mets get a call in their favor from these inept umpires, and I don’t give a rats ass what Larry thinks of $iti Field and how he misses Shea what I’d like to see is a Mets pitcher nail him in the [...]

I’M OFF TO $ITI FIELD

By Steve Keane at 26 April, 2009, 9:03 am

Going to root for the Good Ollie today and hopefully a sweep of a team in the Nats that make the 1962 Mets look like world beaters. I thought I had a tough time drumming the “Fundies” of baseball into the head of 13 yr olds my heart goes out to Manny Acta with that [...]

I

By Steve Keane at 19 April, 2009, 7:42 pm

This was my first visit to 126th and Roosevelt since the last game at Shea and as the 7 train rumbled toward Willets Pt not seeing the familiar blue horseshoe stadium was a bit unnerving, but $iti Field did looking striking in the foreground.  Stepping off the train and walking to the exit (I still miss [...]

YOU BELONG TO THE $ITI

By Steve Keane at 18 April, 2009, 8:23 pm

I will have a longer post on this tomorrow (hopefully both my kids have soccer games so I’ll try) but today my son and I  made our maiden voyage to $iti Field and I’ll just say it was better than I expected. I admit I went in with a bit of reluctence as I’m trying to [...]
