Opening Night: Ha! Already settled! Mets crush Cards!

[JackRiddler]

Decisive victory. Good outing from Glavine. All the question marks - Alou, Green, LoDuca, Valentin - got hits and made plays.

SEASON OVER! HAND THAT PENNANT OVER TO FLUSHING, QUEENS! HA HA HA HA!

1. Ha ha! Mets crush Cardinals again!

El Duque with 7 great innings - more great defense & timely hitting. Going for the sweep tonight!

Only 160 games and 11 post-season victories to go. Has anything ever been this inevitable?

(hey, hometown rah-rah boasts are what sports is all about, no?)

[JackRiddler]

2. Ha ha ha! Sweep with a 10-0 victory!

Nothing can stop the Mets now! Maine shows he's on it! Two homers for Beltran! Only 159 games to go before the inevitable postseason march to victory!

(Rizzutonian metaphysics as applied to the Mets requires now that I keep posting these.)

3. 11-1! Perez goes 7 innings! Two triples for Reyes!

An RBI machine at the top of the order. Everyone gets hits, including Perez. Combined score of 35-3 in 4 games.

Rizzutonian metaphysics now requires that I continue this thread until the Mets win the pennant.

4. Mets lose to Braves...

Well, at least I can stop extending this useless thread now. Phew!

[JackRiddler]

5. Yeah! Mets lose again today!

Stopped by Atlanta again.

Mets suck totally!

What does it take to encourage some trash-talk on this forum? Does anyone post here at all?

6. Many months later...

OUCH!

At least Mets have Santana now...

7. Don't rub it in.

At least Santana went to a National League team. The Twins are playing their home opener against the Angels - who now have Torri Hunter. It will be very strange to see him play for the other side.
