...or had a 4 game win streak - which this team has accomplished twice already. Surprised that OP would double-down on the comparison.

Thanks for the details - Citi Field probably just got lucky with the reconfiguration. But it is cool as hell to walk into a game and be able to stand in the spot that the ball went past Buckner or the spot that I saw Seaver throw countless gems. Pretty much every time I do it I have to wait for someone taking a picture.

I could not agree more with the bolded. I always used Elway to try to make a similar point- he didn't suddenly become great because he won a SB, he was great all along IMO. Also JMO, but Lafleur might be the opposite side of the spectrum - his success may be due more to Rodgers. Kind of like when Switzer inherited Jimmy Johnson's Cowboys.

I'm trying to keep up here. Are we complaining about the lack of great catches by Bills receivers or are we complaining about the drops by Bills receivers or are we just complaining? Did you happen to see the Tyler Boyd's recent drop: Same guy who made this catch:

Isn't that the same game that Diggs made an amazing catch well before Jefferson's?

Open your eyes to the millions of lies that they tell you every day Open your mind to the clever disguise that the advertisements say How do they know what's good for you?

You get nothing for nothing if that's what you do Turn around, B word, I got a use for you Besides, you ain't got nothing better to do And I'm bored

I just flipped off President George I'm going to dizz knee land

Waiting for the judgement But the judgement never ends

A glint of steel, a flash of light You know you're not going home tonight Be it jack or switch, doctor's or mind Nowhere to run, everywhere you'll find You can't escape from the bed you've made When your time has come You'll accept the blade!

Sitting in the stand of the sports arena Waiting for the show to begin Red lights, green lights, strawberry wine A good friend of mine, follow the stars Venus and Mars Are alright tonight

Then came a change When I said I would soon be leavin' you Nothin' else to do Please remember I never lose the thought of you Call on me 'cause I love you You know I do You love me too

Age and $$ does not seem to scare off the Mets lately.

@ExWNYer @Gugny @Another Fan Ticking off the boxes - Nimmo signed long term and Robertson joins the bullpen. I expect Nimmo will be a corner outfielder in a year or two.

$30-per was prescient - except it was $31 for Nimmo and Robertson

One of the Citi Field (Mets) parking lots is on the site of the original Shea stadium. A cool thing they did was mark where the bases and pitchers mound were. Assuming it's possible, it would be cool to mark where the goal posts and/or midfield currently are when the Bills new stadium is built.

Hockey was always the punching bag for a ridiculous post-season. I remember when 16 of the 21 teams made the post season. To their credit they've expanded to 32 teams without adding to the post season. And the 8 team divisions make it tougher for a sub .500 team to make the playoffs which is better then the NFL setup that is predicated on regular season divisional rivalries.

Jimmy crack corn...

LOL - maybe it was Steven Tyler as an elf on a unicycle? Movie came out when my kids were becoming aware of Santa which is why I like it. If it came out a few years later it'd probably be a nothing burger to me. My favorite part was when Conductor Tom Hanks pulls off his hat and he's as bald as a cue ball. My guess is that was a prank that he had no idea about until he saw a screening.

I will be interested to see how much further Cohen pushes the payroll, still holes to fill. There's a reason they call it the Cohen tax, it was put in place for him. The Yankees were always a team willing to bury their mistakes by spending more. Cohen had his first Yankee moment when he cut ties with Cano and ate that contract.

Just to be clear - I have nothing against Judge or the signing. But 9 years is a risk regardless who the player is. But please stop comparing Mantle's stats with Judge's. Different eras and I'd be surprised if I couldn't find a current player that is nowhere near the stature of Judge who has similar HR's to Mantle at similar points in their careers. Just for fun I took a flier on Yankee favorite Joey Gallo. He hit 156 HR's his first seven years - and that includes his first two when he only played 53 games and hit only 7.

In Mantle's last 4 seasons he never topped 56 RBI's. Is that what you're aiming for?
