One of the issues I have encountered over the years is finding my photos for sale online, or in stores around the New York area. Unfortunately, there was very little I could do, except go into the store and complain, or email the people who were selling my content online to cancel their sale. Both [...]

Opinion: on Jerry Manuel – the People’s Manager

Opinion: on Jerry Manuel – the People’s Manager

Normally, I think there are very few managers in baseball that make a difference for their respective teams. I typically think talent ultimately takes over, for better or for worse. However, it’s hard to deny Jerry Manuel hasn’t pressed the right buttons lately. But I don’t know that it’s so simple to just make a [...]

Opinion: Ike Davis Has Given the Mets the Fountain of Youth

Opinion: Ike Davis Has Given the Mets the Fountain of Youth

I freely admit I was not on board with promoting Ike Davis to the big league club last week. I believed he was Major League ready in Spring Training – I specifically remember watching and listening to him in the big league camp, and remarking how mature he was given his lack of experience. I [...]

Note: Being Positive, Keeping Things in Perspective & Enjoying the Moment

Today is an off-day for the Mets, and I figured there would be a lot of people relishing the moment – kicking back and recognizing the Mets current place in the standings, and the style of play they have adopted over the past ten days. Much to my surprise, there isn’t just a ton of [...]

Video: Lets Go Mets Go

Video: Lets Go Mets Go

The Mets have won eight of their last nine games, propelling themselves from the basement in the National League East to sole possession of first place. If this winning trend and style of play continues, I’m all for a remake of this, my favorite music video of all time:

The Lost Art of a Doubleheader

The Lost Art of a Doubleheader

Due to yesterday’s rainout, the Mets and Dodgers will play a doubleheader today at Citi Field, with Game 1 set to start at 4 pm. I used to love going to doubleheaders as a child. I remember they used to be on the schedule, and I always looked forward to getting to the ballpark early [...]

See: My Favorite Pictures from Shea Stadium

In a post to Twitter last night, I made the following mistake in one of my Tweets: The reality is, I attended Mets games at Shea Stadium for 24 full seasons, witness many of baseball’s finest moments in that park, and so I sometimes refer to Citi Field as Shea Stadium. This slip prompted me [...]

Note: Francisco Rodriguez is the Poster Boy of Winning

There are times during the long baseball season when a team appears to be able to do nothing right, and they have to scratch and claw to score runs, get through one tough jam after the next, and the ball always seems to roll against them. There are times during the long baseball season when [...]

Note: Lineups and the Value of Carlos Beltran

On June 21, 2009, the Mets were 34-33, and the next day, Carlos Beltran was placed on the disabled list, joining Jose Reyes, Carlos Delgado, and the rest of them. He didn’t return until September 8, and over that span, the Mets were 28-43. Over the past week in particular, I’ve heard many fans propose [...]
