Two Pink Floyd covers I just came across from a band I was aware of but never listened to:

Barbara Feldon?

Nobody wants to see that.

She told me to ice the arm if it got sore. But I completely agree with who knows.

I just got my J&J shot a few hours ago. In a weird coincidence the pharmacist who stuck me shares the same birthday as me - including the year. Anyway, she suggested taking Ibuprofen a few hours after you get vaccinated and every 8 hours or so for a day as a preventative measure. Her point was if you don't get fever and chills no harm no foul. But if you don't take anything, by the time you start getting the symptoms it's too late and you'll have to wait until the Ibuprofen kicks in. The other suggestion was don't just rollup your sleeve when you get the shot, instead take your arm completely out of your sleeve. Her contention was that the arm soreness is from tensing up when you get the shot and taking your arm out will leave it in a more relaxed position.

In the evening When the day is done, I'm looking for a woman, Oh, but the girl don't come

100% on Bobby V. One of the best in game managers I've watched. Hell, he took an outfield of Jay Payton, Benny Agbayani and Timo Perez to a World Series. Not sure what market you live in, but his appearances on Mike and the Mad Dog on WFAN radio were just great. You also mentioned Turk - he's a favorite of mine as well. In case you missed it, his name came up recently when he sent a care package to the second Met to wear #99: https://www.northjersey.com/story/sports/mlb/mets/2021/03/09/taijuan-walker-second-ny-mets-wear-no-99-turk-wendell/4640019001/

Right there with you. I would tell my friends who Bobby V would be warming up next let alone who we was bringing in next. One of the few times he surprised me was when he left Leiter in to face Sojo in the WS. Granted it was a million hopper that found a hole, but it was one of the few times that I thought Bobby V managed with his heart instead of his head.

Beane is in the enviable position of worrying about his own team more than the competition. He took advantage of that through some free agent signings ahead of the draft knowing he didn't have a high draft pick. Other teams have high draft picks (hope), we have a solid foundation to (hopefully) improve on. I'll take the latter over the former.

LOL...working from home with wifey oversight has removed my guilty fast food work week pleasures. The one time I had to wear a pair of work pants in the past year they were actually looser than last time I wore them. I can't think of a habit I've broken but by and large I'm able to regulate my bad habits.

You're off your rocker.

Not the most exciting game but I went to the Meadowlands in 2009 with a friend who is a Jets fan. My brother-in-law had given me his seats that were in the end zone a few rows from the top of the stadium. Halfway through the 2nd quarter a guy with his girlfriend comes up to us hands us his tickets and says he'd rather sit up top with his friends. We watched the second half 15 rows off the field in the end zone. What was even better was watching Mark Sanchez throw 5 interceptions. Also, the Jets punter threw an INT in overtime on a botched FG attempt so 6 INT's on the day. Watching all of those amongst Jets fans was highly enjoyable. Good times.

WRT to the first bolded - you have that luxury. I have a close friend who is a Yankee fan who thinks like you. I'm a bitter Yankee-hater. If the Mets ever have an extended period of success that overshadows the Yanks maybe I'll be as magnanimous....maybe. WRT to the second bolded - 100% true. But the better NY rivalry is Rangers-Islanders because they actually compete in the same division. When the new Isles ownership came in a few years ago they made a similar statement that they wanted both teams to be great.

I can't wait till my Fro is full-grown I'll just throw 'way my Doo-Rag at home I'll take a drive to Beverly Hills Just before dawn An' knock the little jockeys Off the rich people's lawn An' before they get up I'll be gone, I'll be gone Before they get up I'll be knocking the jockeys off the lawn

Mr. cab driver don't like to way I look He don't like dreads he thinks we're all crooks Mr. cab driver reads too many story books Mr. cab driver pass me up with eyes of fire Mr. cab driver thinks we're all 165'ers Mr. cab driver %#$%& you I'm a survivor

I smoke two joints in the morning, I smoke two joints at night, I smoke two joints in the afternoon, It makes me feel all right. I smoke two joints in time of peace, And two in time of war. I smoke two joints before I smoke two joints, And then I smoke two more.

Baby hold on to me Whatever will be, will be The future is ours to see So baby hold on to me

My first game at Shea was 1971, some of us have fond memories. Just yesterday I was at a virtual baby shower for a co-worker and she's naming her first daughter Shea.

LOL. I've never come across a Crankee fan who tried to hide it - and why should they? I embrace the (sports) hatred of the Mets, it's all good to me. LFGM! (if they they ever get to play)

All good bro. Appreciate the responses. I'm hyper-sensitive to Met criticism (usually warranted). I've been the same way about the Bills for way too long. Hopefully it's changed for both! Go Bills!

Love the response! OP was an obvious d-bag/troll post. I'm a big Mets fan but didn't engage until a few 'real' posts came through. My bad.

I think your claim of being Mets agnostic isn't self aware otherwise why did you love the "Worst case..." quote. Own it. How could you be agnostic about the Mets and love a quote that predicts a worst case scenario for the upcoming season?

Thanks for responding. Are you a Yankee fan, Yankee hater or Yankee agnostic?

Maybe I'm missing something here, but why do you love the quote? Are you a Met hater, Met lover or Met agnostic and just like the quote?

I wonder whether there's cross-over between the criminal case and one or more of the civil cases. If there is, should we expect a barrage of criminal cases?
