..and Rex would have allowed us to achieve the ceiling we all want? If I'm dreaming it's bigger than the Rex we saw not the Rex the Jets saw. I get the McD hate, I don't get the Rex love.

For the second straight season I watched a Bills game while on a college visit to see my son. Last year it was the Ravens debacle. Loos like I'll have to schedule next years college visit for the Bills bye week!

The day you syndicate The Rockpile Review is the day you'll be dead to me. JK. Congrats on being published and good luck!

So which 3 deserve a SB ring this year or are running out of time? Different question than how I read it, otherwise I'd go with Josh, someone else and Josh.

#metoo And I'm a Mets fan.

I love how you put Acuna, Baty, Mauricio and Vientos all under Definitely/Maybe. I don't think they should dump all of them or keep all of them, but they can't go into next year with all of them again. I'm inclined to see what Acuna can do full time at second - love his defense and speed. And I really don't want to give up on Mauricio but I'm also not ready to hand him 3B.

@ExWNYer @Gugny @Another Fan I'm not gonna lie, yesterdays loss did not bother me as much as one might think. Unfortunately I came to the realization a week or two ago that this group did not have an extended run in them - although I would've preferred to see them get the chance to prove me wrong. In the end their strong start to the season masked how bad they've been for months to me. As for Stearns and Mendoza, I'm not a pitchforks and torches type fan and I'd give them a pass this year because of how things went last year. Plus, I never got the impression that Mendoza lost clubhouse. I'm more down on Stearns, with the benefit of hindsight his starting pitching plan fell woefully short. It will be very interesting to see how they approach this off-season. Front and center is Pete, but Bor-ass will drag it out like he always does and unfortunately Vientos as the backup plan to Pete isn't all that appealing anymore . Personally I think they need to make some tough decisions wrt Vientos, Baty, McNeil, Acuna and Mauricio - none of them stood out to me. Looking forward to hearing all your thoughts. In the mean time thankfully we have the Bills to transition to!

@Another Fan @Gugny @ExWNYer The roller coaster ride continues. Maybe their best win of the season tonight. I went to the game last Friday against the Nats. I thought that was the beginning of a great Mets weekend, not so much. BTW, 5-0 this year for games attended! I tend to be a fan with rose colored glasses but I have low expectations for this year, hope they prove me wrong.

Who revived you? Kudos to that person. EDIT: and how did you reach the gas pedal?

Never heard this cover until it came up on a 'things like' playlist. A synapse partially fired but I couldn't place it. Thought it may have been a Weezer cover, turns out it was an early 80's Kinks cover that I still can't put a finger on how I know, but I was smoking a lot of weed back then, lol. Nothing ground breaking here just some punk/pop ear candy:

Feels like it's been slowly trending in that direction for years.

I was gonna go with ice capades.

Prayers up @YoloinOhio. All the best to your daughter, you and the fam.

As others have said the day before prep is the worst part. The prep I had involved drinking that God-awful MoviePrep. My approach was to mix with cold water and then just chug-a-lug it as quickly as possible so I limited the foul taste in my mouth. I've heard there are also pills you can take. When my wife did it she headed to the bathroom within minutes of drinking the prep, for me it took awhile - maybe a half hour or hour. In my case once it started I was in the bathroom for quite a long time. I set up my laptop ahead of time and watched a football game to 'pass' the time along with everything else.

Michael Schenker "My Years With UFO" tonight. As a huge fan of UFO's Strangers in the Night live album the show was solid. A deeper cut I hadn't heard that they played heavier than the orig:

Not sure if I could narrow down my top 3 Led Zeppelin songs but this would be a strong contender:

What gets me is they've also rebounded multiple times.

Which collapse? June (3-14), August (2-14) or September (4-10 so far)? During the August swoon I was still convinced we'd make the playoffs, not so much today. This team has all the hallmarks of a .500 team, which shouldn't be the case given the talent. Can't wait to see what happens tonight against deGrom.

Broncos 2023 - 12 man on the field on the missed FG

You lost me at the bolded.

You need to find a way to monetize your....whatever. This is gold Jerry, gold!

Manager of the 1986 Mets. He set the tone and expectations for that great season. I remember him as a solid 2B for the Orioles and having an outlier 43 HR season for the Braves. In the same year Darrell Evans (41) and Henry Aaron (40) also hit 40. Fond memories. RIP.
