My Entire Team Sucks
I like baseball and I’m a Mets fan, the two aren’t mutually exclusive. Every year the Mets find a way to break my goddamn heart. Anyhow after yesterdays unassisted game ending triple play (the first since 1927?) I was going through some fake Met headlines that Matt (from work) and I came up with. Think of these as headlines (and scenarios) from the back page of the News or the Post, I don’t think any of them have been used yet:
DON’T MESS WITH THE JOHAN- (Johan Santana plunking a batter in retaliation)
TA-TA TATIS-(Fernando Tatis gets cut or traded)
BATS IN THE PELFRY-(Mike Pelfry doing his hand licking and balking)
REMEMBER THE MAINE-(wasn’t John Maine a Mets pitcher?)
MURPHY’S FLAW-(Daniel Murphy and fielding not so perfect together)
REED ‘EM AND WEEP-(the unlikely scenario of a walk off hit by Jeremy Reed)
SANTOS CLAUS -(a game winning hit from Omir Santos, like the Papelbon home run)
you need a career in journalism or, rather, journalism needs you
good stuff!
I always thought the weekly chat Jerry has with WFAN’s Mike Francesa should be called “MANUEL TRANSMISSIONS.”
