4/13/09 Live Game Thread- Opening at Citi Mets Pads, Yanks Rays, 24, Raw etc...

What a great moment for IABS. Tim Robbins interview during a Beltran AB. Only way that could have been better is if they were doing the interview from Jackie Robinson Rotunda.

And a fielders choice

Great job on the hit and run by Church

where are the championship banners hanging?

lol -- Matt Hardy and HHH to Raw.

Just a pillaging

It's like Belichick and Pioli are drafting for Raw and Herm Edwarda and Terry Bradway are drafting for Smackdown and ECW.

lol -- Matt Hardy and HHH to Raw.

Just a pillaging

Last year they wanted to make Smackdown look good, but the network's dying. Oh well, they usually get screwed on draft night anyway.

Just saw the oddly hung "Gulf" ad in left field...does that mean we'll get serenaded by that awful "one mile at a time" song if we go to Citi?

OK, who designed Citi, Stevie Wonder? HP is too close the wall behind it and the outfield walls are too far from HP.

Your just near sighted

Your just near sighted

And myopic.

Pitching wins championships.

c'mon Reed.

Let's do this!

I went looking for this on SI.com, but got distracted by this lovely young lady.

18? damnnnn

Castillo really sells it doesn't he...that wasn't that close to hitting him.

Good. They really should just handwave the other shows.

why do we need the brand extension anymore? they should go back to one brand, go back to 3 main titles like we had back in 2001. also, they should pay the world wildlife fun a few million and rename it back to WWF

Castillo really sells it doesn't he...that wasn't that close to hitting him.

Vlade Divac style

Pitching wins championships.

Right. And the freaking Phillies won the WS playing in a Little League field. Deep outfields don't help your team. Pitching does.

And myopic.

Myopic is more short sighted...isn't it.

lets do this Jose!

Watching some NHL Playoff preview shows tonight and just switched over to the Met game. I have to say, taaaarible job by the Mets not wearing their pinstripe uniforms tonight. I like these jerseys but you gotta' wear the pinstripes tonight.

Myopic is more short sighted...isn't it.

Myopia = near-sightedness, which is also short-sightedness, I guess.

Joses much better when nobodies on

Thanks Jose

Right. And the freaking Phillies won the WS playing in a Little League field. Deep outfields don't help your team. Pitching does.

Is it really that much deeper than Shea...right field sure doesn't seem that way and center is about the same isn't it?

The walls are much, much higher though...

Break up dah caw!!!!

Now Rello, what does the B stand for in RBI?

I was referring to feliciano for the balk.sarcasm did not come through in post

Reyes nice job!

Myopia = near-sightedness, which is also short-sightedness, I guess.

Okay...good word usage.

Break up dah caw!!!!

I haven't watched much baseball this season but I've seen this Reyes guy up "in a big spot" like 3 times and he hasn't come close to getting a hit.

And I was confused when I saw that outfield wall, I was like, "Where the hell are they playing?" Forgot the CitiField scenario.

Well I'm off to bed.

I was referring to feliciano for the balk.sarcasm did not come through in post

Reyes nice job!

Oh it did, that's why I returned it with sarcasm, it's all good...

Is it really that much deeper than Shea...right field sure doesn't seem that way and center is about the same isn't it?

The walls are much, much higher though...

The alleys are deeper than Shea and those high walls make it even tougher to hit one out.

The visitors' bullpen is in Gitmo?

Its only right the mets lose on the opening of the ballpark off a balk..wouldnt want to ruin the perfect script

LOL at Keith.."I thought the wall came down during the Regan Administration"

Its only right the mets lose on the opening of the ballpark off a balk..wouldnt want to ruin the perfect script


Easy now. Three more AB's.

Aren't the Padres off to a decent start?

Aren't the Padres off to a decent start?

Yeah, they are 5-2 and are comig off a sweep of the Giants...

You see this why I don't watch WWE that much anymore. The Khali Kiss Cam. Are you ****ting me?

Eh, they always have ridiculous stuff.

BTW, Beth with a cape is hot.

Punk to Smackdown? That ain't good.

Easy now. Three more AB's.

No i know im just saying it would fit this franchise

Aren't the Padres off to a decent start?

Yes but theyre awful and will come back to earth soon..

No i know im just saying it would fit this franchise

Good point.

Yeah, they are 5-2 and are comig off a sweep of the Giants...

I'm sure word got to them that our Pope predicted anothah 100-loss season for them. Who could ask for a bettah blessing?

ETA: 99, 100...whatevah.

Mets big hitters all have those i just got head from a groupie in the clubhouse and i dont give a sh-tright now at bats once in awhile

Mets big hitters all have those i just got head from a groupie in the clubhouse and i dont give a sh-itright now at bats once i nawhile

Yeah, like there is a really good card game going on in the tunnel and they want to get back to go all in and take the pot...

Nice to see you again....

Mike44 - glad to see you pressing on.

*hands over mantle*

The alleys are deeper than Shea and those high walls make it even tougher to hit one out.

http://newyork.mets.mlb.com/nym/ballpark/comparison.jsp (Scroll to bottom)

The distances seem pretty darn close overall. Right center is a little tough to take. I'd stick with the wall height arguement.

Better it be a pitchers park with the staff that we have...

Did the Rays really just pull up on the Yankees in the 6th? You have to try and score there, the Yankees can score eight runs in the next two innings...

Mike44 - glad to see you pressing on.

*hands over mantle*

Oh, your too kind.. the mantle is still yours...

Did the Rays really just pull up on the Yankees in the 6th? You have to try and score there, the Yankees can score eight runs in the next two innings...while giving up 12 runs in the process...


sadly...fixed.

I wish we had Eckstein...

Oh my God, I F-ing hate Eckstein.

I wish we had Eckstein...

Nice job outta him with that at-bat...

Eckstein running to first like his hair's on fire.

I wish we had Eckstein...

I'd rather go 0-162 than have that c o c k pumper on my team.

The Giles Brothers suck however...

C'mon lets get at least one off Dirty Sanchez here!!!!!

Eckstein running to first like his hair's on fire.

"fake hustle" Fans love it...players hate it.

I'd rather go 0-162 than have that c o c k pumper on my team.

Agreed. He's overrated. If he were 6-feet tall, no one would be impressed.

I'd rather go 0-162 than have that c o c k pumper on my team.

Kinda harsh...I always liked him. Not as a SS so much, but I'd take him at 2B.

time for dirty sanchez to repay us for his debts...unfortunately the mets probably will be too incompetent to collect.

Duaner wasted no time getting that Padres hat dirty.

F ..............

Too much foul ground in new stadium.

Terrible AB by Beltran.

C'mon lets get at least one off Dirty Sanchez here!!!!!

Cleveland steamers!! come on!!6r

Manuel knows it's 6-5 Padres right?

Is Castillo swinging a bat or a kielbasa?

Not only lose on a balk but have Sanchez and Bell close you out wow

The past three years this franchise consistently finds new wasy to take it up the poopchute..

Not only lose on a balk but have Sanchez and Bell close you out wow

seriously, why does the league have poetic justice to basically write down the way they'll beat us and then do it?

You somehow are able to make these uttah disastahs entertaining.

Be fair. 2.05 years.

bulls pistons tied....31 seconds to go

i know i know i know


NO ONE CAHHHZ!

Not only lose on a balk but have Sanchez and Bell close you out wow

The past three years this franchise consistently finds new wasy to take it up the poopchute..

Being the Long Island Joe Benigno, it's a good thing the Rangers didn't collapse out of the playoffs otherwise I'd go on a shooting spree right about now...

NO ONE CAHHHZ!


Wouldn't "CAYUHZ" be the better transcription? "CAHHHZ" are what they drive in Boston.

seriously, why does the league have poetic justice to basically write down the way they'll beat us and then do it?

It was eaiser rootng for this team in the early to mid 90's when we were just horirlble..Now we just invent ways to lose in gut wrnechign fashion not to mention hated by everyone in our divison who enjoy and predict beating us in big situations and continually do so..

LOL. Fans cheering while Murphy was waiting for the fly ball.

Tryin to be positive here. How about a walk off hit to win the first game at Citi....

One last crack at it...then to A's/Red Sox...

Well we do have a silver lining. His name is Chien Ming Wang.

You somehow are able to make these uttah disastahs entertaining.

Im just trying to keep my sanity and laugh it thsi iff,i mean it is almost getting to comical levels..

Be fair. 2.05 years.

Fair point,cant kill em for the 06 palyoffs but it was a devasating loss that wen u add it to the end of the 2 seaons after its hard to fathom..

Being the Long Island Joe Benigno, it's a good thing the Rangers didn't collapse out of the playoffs otherwise I'd go on a shooting spree right about now...

I dont follow hockey anymore which is probably for my heart,i dont need a 4th team to give me ulcers..

Tatis will tie it up once the SOS out of the way...

You might as well burn her with a ciagrette,youre doing the same damage..

I can't read ahead as I am only in the 2nd on the DVR scenario, but 2 things....

1. It's nice having you back Oh Really, your presence has been missed

2. Nice to see you've still got your fastball and you're still a HOF poster.

Bell throwin' at our mayor!? WTF!!!

Ha! Bloomberg gets a souvineeuh.

That fan got JACKED UP!!!

Down to our final out and Reyes up to bat.....no popups please

I wish we had Eckstein...

No you don't.

I'm rooting for a 2 out 3 run homer for Wright....or a K....whatever gets some juice to Tanks show.

Speaking of Tanks, Heath Bell could be a fullback for the Chargers...

The mets fan pollyana contigent who dont want anything negative said about this franchise has been quiet so far..

This was supposed to be a last place team right? (Not the Mets)

Heath Bell And Dirty Sanchez???!!! No Guts Mets!!! No Guts!!!.....fml

Down to our final out and Reyes up to bat.....no popups please

too bad they didn't listen.

heath bell says "i want to get the first ever save at citifield."

and he does.

Wow, they really did lose on a 2-out balk with Tattoo at the plate. Unreal.

What a bunch of bums, 10 in a row retired by this piece of **** san Diego pen.

No you don't.


Actually, I'd take Eckstain over Costillo.

Same old MUTTS

What a bunch of bums, 10 in a row retired by this piece of **** san Diego pen.

And now we get Chris Carlin. Are you kidding me, oh, the mother f-ing pain...Time to take a walk...

Now we can add the Padres to the list of teams who the Mets cannot beat...(others being the Braves and Marlins)...

Good to use Putz ans Krod in a loss with Manuel who likes to overowrk the bullpen as is

Not only lose on a balk but have Sanchez and Bell close you out wow

The past three years this franchise consistently finds new wasy to take it up the poopchute..

Yeah...the Mets and the Jets are the effin BEST at inventing new ways to lose......and why is it that former Mets have to have success against us ???

it will at least be fun tomorrow when Tank explains how Wang's 28.93 era isn't a problem, but that the Mets are in trouble.

San Diego has to be the most improbable 6-2 team ever! I would have jumped on the bandwagon with Tank on giving them 100 losses.

Well...at least his ERA, as opposed to Santana, is higher than Jobbers blood alcohol. (stole this from the morning show.)

Youkillus with a home run, Red Sox lead 1-0 over the A's, middle 2nd...

Two days in a row the Mets **** me on otherwise perfect parlays. OOOOOOOOOOOOOH the pain!

Padres final record: 93-69 NL West Champs....:)

without any spoilers......24.......unstoppable this season....

Shocking show. Does this mean we can't talk about it ?

Seriously how can there be any glass half full met fans left?

They have to be the same dudes who pay hookers to stomp their nutsack

I'll openly root for the Yankees if that happens.

Wait....what?

Jack Cust with a home run...tied at 1...bottom 2nd....:)

Yeah...the Mets and the Jets are the effin BEST at inventing new ways to lose......and why is it that former Mets have to have success against us ???

Anyone whos a former met or just hates us in general we usually bend over for

Quite a gutless team wevve become since that illiterate used car salesman has become our gm

Nick Swisher on the mound for the Yanks...

Swishah on the hill for the Yanks.

Carlins gotta be tough to take everyday for Met fans...I wouldnt like it too much

I haven't watched him and Ojeda on the post-game yet. Is it that painful?

they couldn't go to Veras for an inning? Or Marte? or Bruney?

There was an instance a few years back when the Mets almost went to Todd Zeile for an inning; would have loved to have seen that...

Is this a joke...Swisher is pitching? He's acting like it's a softball beer league...what a disgrace.

There was an instance a few years back when the Mets almost went to Todd Zeile for an inning; would have loved to have seen that...

Matt Franco Desi Relaford and Derek Bell all pitched an inning under Bobby V.

Carlins gotta be tough to take everyday for Met fans...I wouldnt like it too much

Why does it seem like you have to work at the Fan to get a job at SNY?

Nice..Giambi with a double, 4-1 A's bottom 2nd...

Is this a joke...Swisher is pitching? He's acting like it's a softball beer league...what a disgrace.

Say what you will, Swishers ERA......0

relax the games 15-5

Fiesty Captain. I realize the score. It's just silly. I mean, they have no one else?

I don't know, people have complained in the past. I figured that was going to happen a couple episodes back, but then I forgot about it. But you knew they had to find a new twist for the last 6 hours of the show.....they have done a great job this season.


OK, I won't say anything. Yeah, I guess they had to create more drama....but it was a littl ovah the top.

But how is Jack going to be saved.....will the stem cell transplant work ?

It is silly I didn't get it either...kinda embarrassing but it's 15-5 no need in wasting any other bullpen arms I guess

When the Mets did it I feel like in a weird way it helped the the fans (and maybe the players) not take the bad loss as hard.

Holliday with a double, 5-1 A's, bottom 2nd...

It is silly I didn't get it either...kinda embarrassing but it's 15-5 no need in wasting any other bullpen arms I guess

True, but with this kind of crap Girardi is gonna write his ticket out of town quickly...he just leaves himself open to critics all over the place and something like this is just one more thing he doesn't need. But it is 15-5, so whatever...

Mad Dog will be going nuts about the Yankees laughing and joking in the dugout down 15-5....


Lester...not so hot so far....

Swishah - 0.00 ERA!!!!!!!!!!!

Is there anything this guy can't do?!?!

who the hell is pitching for the sox?

Lester is....

Mike Mike Mike, calm down with the updates. The Met/Yankee anger is coming over to me now.

THANK YOU.... :D

THANK YOU.... :D

I'll lay low for both of you.....:)

they were a disgrace tonight....dropping pop ups giving up grandslammah's hitting into double plays...Girardi better get this team on track sooner then later or he wont be enjoying any of the new stadiums new toys.

I hope Girardi's kid hasn't gotten too used to his nice big playroom off to tha side of his daddy's office...

What a great moment for IABS. Tim Robbins interview during a Beltran AB. Only way that could have been better is if they were doing the interview from Jackie Robinson Rotunda.

Again I'm catching up, so I can't read ahead. I'm only in the 6th. But this is a HOF post again from P&C.

P&C is cruising today.

When the Mets did it I feel like in a weird way it helped the the fans (and maybe the players) not take the bad loss as hard.

I could swear that when Bobby Valentine did this, Tank went nuts about how it was a disgrace to the game and that it was something Torre and the great Yankees would never do.

well I'm not breaking any news or anything, but he is signed for 1 more season. Now would that be the end? I know they've been wanting to do a movie, so they could do that afterwards I suppose. Should be interesting. But after all Jack has been through, you meaning to tell me that a little bioweapon is going to take him down?

Yeah, Jack has another year, and hopefully they will complete it. Jack is the 2009 version of the bionic man with more intelligence who doesn't run as fast. :)

ugh...Yankees get bombed, Mets lose and kill my parlay. Not a good night.

At least the Sox are s****** it up again....

edit: you can't say s ******? <handwave>

I could swear that when Bobby Valentine did this, Tank went nuts about how it was a disgrace to the game and that it was something Torre and the great Yankees would never do.

I dont remember but that certainly sounds like what his take would have been.

HA! HA!!! Actually it would have been even better if it was done Wednesday on JR day........AGAIN!!

ugh...Yankees get bombed, Mets lose and kill my parlay. Not a good night.

At least the Sox are s****** it up again....

edit: you can't say s ******? <handwave>

It's the 3rd inning...handwave to me for having hope....

Manuel suggesting that Big Pelf is hurt and will need some extra rest.....GREAT!!!!!

I wonder what tank will start off with tomorrow..Mets or Yankess?

I wonder what tank will start off with tomorrow..Mets or Yankess?

Good Question, my $$$ is the Yanks. Maybe start with serious concerns about Wang post DL.

I'll handwave you rather quickly. They either won't score again or they'll score a few runs late and lose by 1.

Yeah...I'm not liking those trends...

Swishah - 0.00 ERA!!!!!!!!!!!

Is there anything this guy can't do?!?!

Who cares if he is lefty, I say put him at third when Tex comes back...

Good Question, my $$$ is the Yanks. Maybe start with serious concerns about Wang post DL.

I agree....even though the poetic story would be the Mets winning their first game in the new ballpark and not pulling through, they will probably flatten the Padres the next two games. When the ace of your staff can't get out of two innings in his first 2 starts and has like a 78.00 ERA, there's a problem....a real problem.

Good Question, my $$$ is the Yanks. Maybe start with serious concerns about Wang post DL.

Yeah, maybe we can get one of those "speeches" out of General Tank Francesser...

This Justin Tuck/RCN commercial may be the worst ever

Who cares if he is lefty, I say put him at third when Tex comes back...

The sad part? I was thinking Tex at 3rd, Swisher at 1st.....Swisher at RF, trade Nady....who cahrzz....just get him in the lineup everyday!!!!!

Tampa wins the division, Toronto wins the wildcard. I can see it now...

Tank wanting the Yankees cawh to break up....

Tampa wins the division, Toronto wins the wildcard. I can see it now...

Not Toronto.....Baltimore....oyyyyy

Who cares if he is lefty, I say put him at third when Tex comes back...

Mark Tehan for Petitte, straight up.

I switched over to YES for a second and got a gem from Kim Jones

"the score obviously was what it was and Swisher is who he is."

That's why I advocate having Michelle Beadle in there....

Not because Kim Jones is Kim Jones, but Michelle Beadle is Michelle Beadle....

I can make a better case for Toronto....McGowan comes back in a month or two...Marcum midseason....Their offense looks better, and their bullpen is generally solid. Not crazy, plus Tank had them as an under.

All I read was blah, blah , blah then the hidden gem....plus Tank had them as an under. :D

plus Tank had them as an under.

Thats all u really had to say after that statement everything is semantics

Isiah Thomas' possible new team.....Florida International

http://sports.espn.go.com/ncb/news/story?id=4065658

Two pickoff/rundowns by Lester in a row....very weird

EDIT: A hit in between...my bad

Jeez, Red Sox catch two A's runners off base...one to start and one to end the inning...

Isiah Thomas' possible new team.....Florida International

Good.....he can ruin another program there.

So why'd I sit down Jack Cust this week?!?

Not to be too crass, but you figure after unsuccessfully trying to kill yourself, one would be a less than ideal candidate for role as a coach/mentor/leader.

Well, he did succeed in killing the Knicks, Pacers and CBA. A .750 batting average is pretty good.

Not to mention trying to cover it up by blaming the fiasco on his teenage daughter, very role model like...

He will make the kids run a lot of suicide sprints

Bravo...I literally laughed out loud when reading this....

Sox have zero juice....

Now that the great Jody Gerut will go down in history as the first person to hit a home run in Citi Field, who will be the first person to hit a homer out of Yankee Stadium?

My prediction: Jorge Posada

Florida International is great, they were the ones that got in a fight with Miami during a football game a couple years back when Brandon Merriweather stomped on a player.

Edit:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FNypDGoC_8M
highlights. I remember watching it live, the announcer was an ex Miami player and kept saying something along the lines of "you don't come into the OB and think you're going to push us around."

I renember that fight...FIU is awful in both football and basketball though, I dont see anything Isiah Thomas could do to change that.

Now that the great Jody Gerut will go down in history as the first person to hit a home run in Citi Field, who will be the first person to hit a homer out of Yankee Stadium?

Come on...it will be The Guru, Nick Swisher

Soria in a little trouble in the 9th...

never easy with this god d@mn team...

My prediction: Jorge Posada

how about Ransom? That would go over big.

Soria sh iting the bed in the KC/Cle game....actually it's the bullpen in general

hahhahahha what position? QB? Kicker? Punter?

Of course, when your defense collapses last year, you have no depth on your d-line, aging cornerbacks, and barring injury, set at the QB position for 10 years...what do you do?

Work out a Duke basketball player for a QB spot of course!!!

Sterling with the epic fail scenario on the call of Upton's catch.

Bravo...I literally laughed out loud when reading this....

Sox have zero juice....

Well Caddyshack is on Bravo.....just sayin..

how about Ransom? That would go over big.

I did predict Jose Molina would be the last one to hit it out of the old stadium....

hahhahahha what position? QB? Kicker? Punter?

he was like an all state QB

Sterling with the epic fail scenario on the call of Upton's catch.

I completely missed it, how did he handle it???

he was like an all state QB

So was Allen Iverson, but you certainly wouldn't have wanted him as your QB....

F'ng Nomah....

I completely missed it, how did he handle it???
Somers just played it. He thought it was over the wall and then played the whole "i couldn't see it" card.

ugh...

never easy with this god d@mn team...

and the Roayls hang on to win!

Somers just played it. He thought it was over the wall and then played the whole "i couldn't see it" card.

Thanks. Typical. Carton will probably play it in the morning. And then Joe and Evan will play it, then Mike. So I think I may hear it tomorrow.

Remeber last summer, or the summer before when Mike used to rag the other shows for stealing his idea to play Sterlings calls like it was SUCH an orginal idea.

Did Francesa stay for the game or did he bail after his show?

and the Roayls hang on to win!

Soria gives up 2 runs just so he can get his 4th save.

:p

Soria gives up 2 runs just so he can get his 4th save.

:p

I thought you couldn't create your own save situation? Or you can if you give up the runs but they are charged to someone else???

Ugh..no play at first..Pedroia on at 1st, 2 on for the Red sox...

I thought you couldn't create your own save situation? Or you can if you give up the runs but they are charged to someone else???

Well they were up 4-0.

Then Mahay gave up 1 and then Soria gave up another I think.

So it's a save.

Did Francesa stay for the game or did he bail after his show?

He's sick, practically dying....that's just a silly question. ;)

He went so far as to say that he may still be sick on Friday and the contest winner who is supposed to sit with him if they win tickets to the Mets game may just have to take both tickets themselves.

Well they were up 4-0.

Then Mahay gave up 1 and then Soria gave up another I think.

So it's a save.

The run Soria gave up was Mahay's, so yeah, it was a save.

He's sick, practically dying....that's just a silly question. ;)

He went so far as to say that he may still be sick on Friday and the contest winner who is supposed to sit with him if they win tickets to the Mets game may just have to take both tickets themselves.

Too bad....they will miss out on sitting with da pope...

Well they were up 4-0.

Then Mahay gave up 1 and then Soria gave up another I think.

So it's a save.

He gave up both runs from inherited runners...that's a weird rule.

Ortiz with a hit... 6-2 A's...Top 6th...

He's sick, practically dying....that's just a silly question. ;)

He went so far as to say that he may still be sick on Friday and the contest winner who is supposed to sit with him if they win tickets to the Mets game may just have to take both tickets themselves.

Did Mike ever end up flying with Liser to the SB or did he get out of that one too?

That was never real, Mike had to go on Monday to do his show(with the umbrellar) from the Hyatt for the week. Liser didn't go till the weekend. So that wasn't something he got out of.

Well Caddyshack is on Bravo.....just sayin..

You finished watching the game rd?

Only the mets can open up a ballaprk like that..only the mets

I don't know why he does that, but he seems to do it a lot. More than just a couple of mistakes.

Maybe someone gave Tank some bad easter candy and he is having a bad reaction to it....

Well, without giving away big stuff from tonight's episode, there were a couple things Hodges said to President Taylor that caught my attention. First, he talked about how he used to come to the Oval Office all the time when President Daniels was in office. Second, he said this is all much bigger than she thinks. Does anyone remember the conversation Daniels and Taylor had in the redemption movie on her inauguration day? When he asked he if she thought he didn't really want to win the election? And, then he said to her that she would find out that the job wasn't what she thought it would be. Something tells me we haven't seen the last of President Daniels.

This caller Max is going nuts!!!!!!

Yeah, and his comment "I hate the Mets".....

These late night callahs are crazy.

Yeah...it's the 7th game of a 162 game season..cawm down....

LMAO! Caller challenging Fred Wilpon to a fight.

I don't think that's really the best idea. If you're looking to take out your frustrations on him, I'd probably try telling him I could invest a couple hundred million dollars for him.

Is the weather ever nice around heah?

Usually by June it gets to 70 degrees....One of the reasons I will be moving to florida after college...

Oh I know, I've lived around here my whole life (31 years). I come to hate the weather more and more every year, with this year being the worst yet.

I would handwave Florider because of the summer months. I don't know how DiPeeardo does it.

I am seriously contemplating San Diego years down the line.

Yeah, I can't stand winters up here anyore. And it seems like it's only warm around here for a few months, then back into the freezer. I have been to florida many times, mostly to Orlando and have loved it from the moment I got there.I also have an uncle that lives in Ocala, which is an hour away from Orlando. San Diego was the other city I was thinkig about moving to after college. It seems like a perfect city to live in..sunny 70 degrees everyday, all year.

Yeah, I mean think about it. It's April and it's still cold outside. It's been cold since when, October?!

My issue with San Diego is twofold: 1) the distance from all of my friends and family as I know nobody out there 2) the wildfire scenario. One good thing about the Northeast is while the weather isn't any good, you never have to worry about your house being destroyed by some natural disaster.

Oh I know..it seems like forever since we have had a truely warm day up here.... I completely understand your concerns for San Diego. It's definitely a risk going out to a city, especally out to the west coast, and going basically alone. Yeah, we have seen the many stories about wildfires in California, including San Diego. But, there is always a risk when moving to a new city. I look at the pros being, it's a new city to explore, get out of the cold weather and it's a little less hectic lifestyle then around here. That's what I am basing my move to Orlando on...

Makes sense to me.

I know you're young, but have you ever been to the Orlando Ale House? It's the best sports bar I've ever been to. Great atmosphere. It's near the Disney scenario, but I forget the name of the street. If you get down there after you turn 21, check it out.

On that note, I'm going to retire for the night. Talk to you tomorrow.

Oh man! I have been there with my father a bunch of times!!! I love that place! Great food, atmosphere as you said is tremendous. Everytime I go down there with my father that's the first place we think of going to. With that good night to you as well YOTS. Talk to you tomorrow.

How long before we hear this from Mike:
"Swishah...stahtah or relievah?
