Someone has to clean the sh!tters. Between him and Kaep being on their knees, maybe they'll do a good job.

[Mike Honcho 4,007]

One of my favorite clips, particularly at 20 seconds.

 

[Reality 2,710]

Good for him, he played better than I thought he would.

You seem to think I have some sort of hard on for the Mets.

 

Untrue.

 

They are the morons that traded for he that shall not be named and signed the human freak show Tim Tebow

Tebow is a freak show? Not how I would categorize him.

 

Winner, competitor, great collegiate player, below average pro player, avg minor league prospect, wears his faith on his sleeve.

 

What makes him a freak? His virginity?

[edjr 5,547]

I didn't invent tebow mania.

[vuduchile 1,940]

Tebow > Jordan

I thought we didn't like him cause Bayless has a mancrush on him.

[GobbleDog 815]

Tebow > Jordan

 

Apparently it's cool to hate Tebow, but uncool to hate Jordan. Even though statistically... Jordan sucked ass at baseball. Why all the hate?

[TimmySmith 2,782]

Of the 2 sporters of note, Bo was the best. He was on his way to huge career. If Tebow took up baseball at 22, he's be a major leaguer right now. He has the tools. Just came to the party too late.

No hate.

 

I still think he wasn't given enough of a chance to play QB in the NFL

[Patriotsfatboy1 1,432]

He is cranking in Mets camp. Went 1-18 with 11 SO. Designated to minors camp where he belongs. Side-show Tim.

[Hardcore troubadour 12,576]

Pats fans obsessed with all things NY. Funny.

How old do you think I am? Aren't you in your late 40's?

[kilroy69 993]

I hated this dude getting a tryout. I thought it was a pr stunt. I was wrong. If he can win a bench spot in spring training why not? What do the Mets have to lose. Not like they are gonna win...ever.

[dain11279 926]

Good. What a waste of time. I hope he strikes out looking his next 47 plate appearances. All that tail he could be nabbing and he wastes it. He deserves failure. Fock him.

[TimmySmith 2,782]

Mets need to get this sideshow over and get on with another 70 win season.

Such a waste of a phenomenal pitching staff..

 

[shotsup 830]

I don't care about Tim Tebo either way. Not a fan nor a hater.

 

What bothers me is all the negative stuff said about him playing baseball. How is taking starts and at bats away from other minor leaguers looking to make the majors but so is he.

 

It's not like Garth Brooks taking at bats away with zero shot at making it to the Show.

 

That said watching TT swing the bat I no longer think he has a shot either.

Remember this time last year Met fans were making WS plans and Yankee fans were settling in for the long rebuild? Things happen fast in the big city.

He's handsome and seemingly perfect as a man. Haters gonna hate.

 

I could do without the religion, but meh, whatever.

The religion adds to the wholesome image. He’s the picture on the wall every dad hopes their daughter brings home.

So let's bet.

 

Who will have the most wins at the end of the regular season ?

Answer Yankees.

But if you spot me say 12 wins I'll take Mets

Mets o/u right now is 81. I like that over, and the Yankees is 94.5., and I like that as is. So I'm not giving 12. 9 is a good number. . Strong AL east, week NL east. Real week now that the Marlins are a AA club.

I knew you would counter. Was hoping for at least 8.

 

I'll take the 9

That is not fair. Picking on a little kid like that.

[shotsup 830]

It's actually a popular bet in the bars around here. Trick is to catch the yankee fan at his cockiest drunkest moment.

 

I never win at this game

Not bad so far .250 (tied for 3rd on team), a hit in 5 straight.
