I recall that game pretty well. I still thought Josh had to work on his accuracy after that day but Charles Clay really gypped him of a miraculous winning touchdown on 4th down. All he had to do was run up that last throw a little more.

Don't tell that to him these days 😁

Do you do a little every day? Or just wait until the weekend to do it all with separate loads for all your clothes and bedsheets. Or you just never do it at all and have someone else do it or bring it to an outside service?

I was a Saved By The Bell kid as well and share your sentiments. I was dumb and impressionable enough as a kid I thought high school would resemble that show 😅 Home Alone actually seems pretty bad now to me. The saving grace of the film to me is Kevin’s friendship with his neighbor

@ExWNYer @Gugny @SinceThe70s I’ve just been goggling the scores the last week or so. Feel the team right now isn’t worth getting invested in. I don’t think Cohen has to go the whole Steinbrenner route of having his expectation to be 162-0 each year…. But yeah I wouldn’t mind seeing him nudge the guys a little more publicly. How I see it is they all have a privilege to be making millions playing the game

I’d still definitely say the 90s but for out of town fans say of the Bills the team would be harder to follow or find merchandise for pre internet/online shopping. Today that’s easier to do. I miss the newspaper as well from that era being the gospel at least for me when it came to sports. I’d add it was a lot easier as well to follow sports on a local college/high school level as well. I’m sure I could find that stuff online but I can’t be bothered

The Mets certainly can

I'm in the same job/role/home from 6 years ago when I joined. But I felt joining here was the start of getting my mental health a little bit better on track. One of my first of many Off The Wall threads on the site related to depression and anxiety which I got good feedback on. Then I got the official diagnosis of autism. I still struggle with a lot of things about that label but long story short I have a much better idea of what I'm dealing with. Pretty cool to meet @BarleyNY in person and hang out with him a couple times as well

90s as well for me. But I would tell you September 2001-January 2002 was the zenith of crazed sports fandom in my life. Even as a Mets fan I was glued to the 2001 World Series between the Yankees and Diamondbacks. I stayed up to watch all 7 games. I did not witness the 1986 Series so I would tell you that's the best World Series I witnessed. Especially after 9/11 and all. Ditto the Super Bowl that year. It was exiting as hell but um I was rooting for the Patriots that night though 🤮 Fast forward to today where the Super Bowl means just checking out the Youtube highlights of it the next day and reading about it. The World Series just becomes a matter of googling the scores to me. I dont watch either one anymore if I dont have a rooting interest.

How do I know this isn’t a ploy to find out a common security question for passwords 😁

I like those late 80s/early 90s sort of erotic thrillers. The movie didn’t do very well but I thought/think Madonna in Body of Evidence was the hottest thing ever. Especially growing up. I’m not a big Nicole Kidman fan but she was very beautiful/sultry/evil in To Die For. Easily my favorite role she was ever in. So those 2 films for me.

Maybe a middle option for me? I think the humor is still relevant but the show feels on the its all been shown too many times for my tastes.

I googled yesterday's score and saw it was "Mental Health Awareness Day" at Citi Field as well. All Mets fans mental health would improve finding other hobbies/interests besides watching this inept team.

I was watching a documentary on Bob Hurley the famous high school coach the other night. I know it's a totally different atmosphere and sport but would love to see or know of Buck delivering a speech as in the 1st 3 minutes below. NSFW I watched the highlights and could give Nimmo a little bit of a pass because that's very rare that kind of mental mistake like that in the 9th inning. But the team plays with no passion/fire/has no motivation. They are just whatever at this point. Overpaid athletes not worth getting worked up over.

I went to summer camp for tennis years as a kid and took lessons as well. I liked it up until high school where I had a bad experience trying out for the team there and never bothered with the sport again. But I joined the local racquet center. Got up to doing drills at an intermediate level. My goal for now is try to be able to complete them at an advanced level. Any experiences/stories playing the game from members here?

This is where Buck, Cohen, or someone needs to close the doors tonight and tell the team: The product out there today was a f***ing joke. You guys gotta get your pansy asses in gear. You are the laughing stock of Major League Baseball right now. I think someone needs to rip into the team to get them focused again. Or have their skin crawl a little with some fear

Rest well Gordon. It was actually in Vincent Gallo's movie The Brown Bunny where I discovered his music. Lovely song

@Gugny @ExWNYer Broad takes on the team being April is officially done as far as Mets baseball is concerned. 15-12 isn't I mean horrible but for close to a $350 million payroll fans could expect a lot more. But then again it's a long long season. Marathon not a sprint. The team had like a really good April last year with the "no hitter". Which lets face it meant nothing with how the year finished. Some other thoughts: I know I felt Mark Canha last year was my favorite Met overall. But he's starting to wane on me a little. I have a neutral tendency to like guys with their own personality that come to play hard every day. Plus he seemed to embrace being a Met as well. But I mean at .220 I'm not sure how much longer he stays employed on the team. And I mean to each their own but his food obsession Instagram page seems a little on the odd side to me now. Still like the dude though. Buck. I mean he had a very good season managing last year but that being said the team still kind of dumped out toward the end there. At 15-12 anyone just a little bit concerned about him losing the clubhouse or him over the whole year?

Brandy you're a fine girl. I used to know a girl by that name. I'll put it this way took me a while to like this song again

Yesterday was the first time I ever heard this song on the radio. 90s on 9. Guess it used to be too risque

Ditto

Probably finishing up Beef on Netflix and following the Devils. Not a big draft person. It stems from not knowing much about college football to really have much an opinion on the selections. I’m sure all read takes though here Thursday night on Buffalos selections
