Mets have to win out and Brewers have to lose out, that's the only path left to a post-season game - which I think would be a tie-breaker with the Brew Crew and the winner playing the GNats in the wild card.

I was at the Mets game last night. Made it through in shorts and short sleeves. Can't say the same for wife and kid - wind was kicking pretty good. Actually didn't make it to the end - which is a cardinal sin IMO - listened to the tying HR on the drive home and then watched the end on TV which was weird. Gotta love that there's no quit in the team. Hats off to the Brew Crew for the run they are on.

Cover blown.

More spoken word than song lyric and not at all mainstream: Sam With The Showing Scalp Flat Top (Zappa/Beefheart) I usually played such things as rough-neck and thug. Opaque melodies that would bug most people. Music from the other side of the fence. Back to our regularly scheduled broadcast: Once again the roadrunnerLeaves the coyote in the dirtYou've got another plan of actionBut we all know it ain't never gonna work

I was watching a local sports show yesterday and thought the same exact thing. It's incredible how he's gone from ridiculed draft pick to their '10 year starter' (someone actually said that) after a few pre-season games and one start. I wonder if the narrative would be the same had the TB kicker hit the chip shot.

I hope they feel the same at 4:15 today.

Lord Almighty, I feel my temperature rising

Might be easy for you, not me.

If you're a die-hard, borderline delusional Mets fan - yes. Transitioning to an undefeated Bills team helps. LFGM! Go Bills!

Me?

Seems reasonable to assume he wanted to knock them all over. I still give props for a dead center throw. Wish I could do that.

Tomorrow is a must win. For the record, I think a win tomorrow (9/22/2019) sets us up well for the type of success we all want - playoffs and better. But if they lose it's not like those goals are unattainable and if we win it doesn't guarantee anything more than 3-13.

Brew Crew are on a run like we had in late-July/early-August. And they lost Yelich and didn't fold up their tents. LAMP ALERT, read on at your own discretion. I'll be at Citi Tuesday night. My older sons HS marching band is doing a pregame performance with two other HS bands and then the national anthem on their own. Was hoping the game would be more important. The following Sunday we'll close out the regular season taking both sons to Fenway for the first time - gotta love a wife with the foresight to combine Fenway with college visits. Good times. Now go out and get 3 more HRs Polar Bear!

It's the eye test for me as well. Saw enough last year for both optimism and concern. Right now I'm very optimistic but not ready to 'anoint'. Looking forward to eliminating any doubts I have as the season progresses.

JMO, but you drew attention to it. They win. Reminds me of the old "This tastes terrible...try it" mentality. Why would I want to eat/read something that sucks? And for the record I didn't think the article sucked because he ranked the Bills low.

Hottest I ever had was a wing at a brewpub near Mt. Snow years ago. It was tasty until it felt like it was burning a hole right through my tongue. One wing and I was done. I keep a variety of Cholula flavors in stock. Sweet Habanero would be my favorite but it's a bit hot for me and I can only take it in small doses. Tabasco for Bloody Marys. I like but am not particular about Buffalo sauce, lately I'm more inclined to go with Thai Chili for wings. Diablo. Had it once and didn't like the flavor either. Fire is my go to.

Not a KISS reunion, but it's not too late to see Ace Frehley. He's got a gig at a Dodge dealership in New Jersey later this month. https://wdhafm.com/event/ace-frehley-live-at-nielsen-dodge-chrysler-jeep-ram/

I'll hold out (unreasonable) hope until they're actually eliminated, but they've been on life support for awhile IMO. The thing is there is no quit in the team and they're fun to watch - up until the call to the bullpen. A few things that are more attainable that I'd like to see before the season ends: - Alonso hits 50 HRs - Alonso breaks the rookie HR record (52) - the Nats don't make the post season There's also been rumblings that DeGrom is a Cy Young contender again this year. Not sure how realistic that is.

Arguably the greatest kick of all time.

That's how it started in my area going back quite a few years - cops telling us if we have cups we're OK. It's been part of every pre-game and pre-concert routine every since: Who's bringing the cups?

That's been the unwritten rule for years in the NYC metro area. Only time I can remember getting hassled with a solo cup was the night after Clemens beaned Piazza in the head.
