4/18/09 - Screech at Citi Field/The Rangiz/ Wang progress

Some calculatah issues with the site this am ?

BIG start for Wang today. Yankee fans looking for their #1 to fire a Salvo.

Mets hope to make it 2 in a row w/Santaner after a walk-off win.

The Rangiz need to go up 2-0.

Can't listen to WFAN today at Citi Field - who can handle Evan and Johnnie ?

Beautiful day, so who wants to be inside ?

Damn...beat me to it... :D I was just about to post the thread. Oh well, here is what I had:

Good Sports Saturday:


Brewers/Mets 1pm - Will the Mets score for Johan
Indians/Yanks - The FOX game...Battle of 0-2 pitchers Carmona vs Wang
Rangers at 1pm, can they come home 2-0
NBA Playoffs....
...
Rutgers Spring Game, UConn Spring Game...double handwave I know...but I will be there


Have at it...

Also...very flaky site this morning. Was down for quite a while.

Just noticed that our newest member is BINGLE. Great one! That didn't take long! Welcome, Bingle.

Sorry, I started a game thread as I didn't see this thread because the calculatah that makes this site work was not functioning properly. The people who MOD pays to put all the stuff we type on to the calculator must have slept late, so I couldn't see this thread.

why is time going backwards?? Its 10:52, not 9:52

I have seen this in the past...especially if you are not logged in, and just browsing the site all posts are an hour off. JIM!

No problem. Of cawse, I had issues logging on also. So when I finally did and saw no thread, I thought I would post my first one, knowing full well that you, Timmy, and othahs are bettah at it.

Yeah. I've been trying to get on since 8:00 this morning. Mod needs to stop having Jim run the board on weekends.

I think we are equal opportunity thread starting forum...that is if you can get the date right and have at least 100 posts!

john and evan...tough to take.

Checker--That Hitler/Packers video was epic!! Thanks for the link.

Mets/Yankees ticket talk! On Sportscenter. FML

if anyone else heard hagin's call on the sheff HR, i'd be interested in your opinion. i thought it was a little lame.

2 more days of games for the Unclevah Ballclub to get up off the mat from the current 18-1 beatdown (the 1 is a Heilman blown save, which is pretty funny) that RD is issuing. And next week we add Beltran and Morneau.

Blessed!

Yes, I'm talking fantasy baseball trash.

Yes, that's really lame.

No, I never have played fantasy baseball before this year, and Unclever will probably win like 15-4.

Agreed....kinda like a community service org., for which we are most greatful to the Admin/Mod.

Now if we can just get Oh Really to believe in the 2009 Mets................................I kid becoss I too am jaded from the past, but I want to believe that these guys at least owe it to themselves....their money notwithstanding.

Just listened. I thought it was pretty good, especially for Hagin.

same here for me too. currently i'm beating keith 16-3, but of course that could change on a dime if my guys take the weekend off.

it just goes to show, you can't predict baseball suzyn.

Just listened. I thought it was pretty good, especially for Hagin.

i mean it's much better than some of his other HR calls, but i guess maybe i'm too much of a hawd mawkah.

ok, so this is the actual thread?

are we sure?

gee whiz.

I am off to the bawlpawk!

Lets go Mets and Rangers and a repeat scenario for jeff Gordon at Phoenix later on todee!

Big day on tap. Lets pound Gallardo even though it FML in the ESPN fantasy scenario. I have a feeling I'm screwed this week anyway with the Mora/Tatis DL and Hamels s******.

Congrats to Jerry Rello -- no way humanly possible he could lose this week to an undermanned Mink squad.

Thanks and sorry at the same time Mink.

Nice to see the board up. Definitely AM issues. Didn't boards themselves overslept.

Geez, tough start to the baseball season from a "viewing" point of view for RD this year.

I couldn't see one Met/Marlin game. Now I'm outta luck on a Saturday aftahnoon with the FOX scenario. At least I get a nice fat Ranger playoff game to keep me occupied. But geez, $169 doesn't get you as many "extra innings" as it used to....

are you sure about that? the game is not blacked out on mlb.tv. it's a 1 PM game which should be over before the fox games start.

Tough spot.

Goomba John proclaims about Joba:

"Da only way dey gonna win is to puddim back in da eight inning, ya got millions invested in this team,know what I mean..''

Today isn't "blacked out" so far as I can tell. Just no 1pm games on the MLB extras on cable. And I am NOT paying MLB for any games on my computah or radio calls of games I can't see this year as I have in past years. It's not the $, it's the principal.

i see....well, maybe they haven't popped it up yet. it's a longshot, but who knows. hopefully, you'll get to see the game. i will need updates on the rangiz though b/c i'm sh~t out of luck here in philly trying to get that one unless i want to sit and listen to hockey on the radio on nhl.com.

Worst commercial ever! (But funny)

lol franco must be hanging out with mike a lot lately. his take on joba is francesa verbatim.

500 as a pinch hitter, thats sort of an indignity, isn't it?

Sheff is really sickening to listen to. 8 freakin teams and 7 welcomes WORN OUT, and this carpetbagger takes the cadillace curtain call at Shea. 500 ain't what it used to be and it definately isn't when you have a roid resume tracking you. I guess you've got to be pumped to hit it, but man oh man, give it a rest Gary, would ya please gee whiz!

just looking over the scores from last night...the braves lost, but jair jurrjens pitched well for my fantasy team 6.2 IP, 1 ER, 7 K. now that's what i call, the best of both worlds...don't tell mad dog though.

yeah, this is tough to take. sheffield just said "nobody gave me one home run, i had to earn 'em all."

hey gary, i hope the folks at BALCO didn't hear that.

Screech doing a GREAT job going after Sheff here:

"500 isn't what it used to be Gary, and you have the Steriod stuff, do you think this is diminished because of that?"

"Steroids seemed to have tarnished this ..."

Smiling Gary got harsh pretty quick:

"GNC's got a lot of stuff to get you ready" and then he trails off and slinks off the air

LMAO!! That's a POTD if I ever saw one.

Franco sounds pissed. Tells Evan, "that's your opinion!" on the Sheff HOF thing

Evan: "You're a clean guy"

not exactly what I've heard regarding Johnnie and he's tapdancing like Gregory Hines around these roid questions. He got pretty ripped by the end of his run.

Great take though:

"uhhh, yuhhh, its a tough situation, you can't say did they do it before, but they uhhh, duhhh, yuhhh, they probably won't make the hall"

John's stats trend down for 5 years, begining at age 37, and then at age 42 he puts up a 2.62 era.

As Dog would say, "Be careful here, be careful"

Here's a link to the NBA Playoffs thread... smack talk and predictions welcome!

Johnny loves to come off this sincere, I-wear-my-heart-on-my-sleeve NY kinda guy. But he'll nevah go against his breathern. He'll always take the playahs side of things. Plus, he didn't know when it was time to leave, and didn't do the Mets any favors with his inside politicing.

Wowwww... Screech defending the curtain call? I just tuned in.

He is one lucky guy who never got it. You would think that after several teams dropped him, he would have realized that it's not just about him. Not that he will cahh, but he has to live with himself, his denial, and own BS. Don't think he'll be on the podium in Cooperstown too soon. Aren't we lucky that his cousin recommended him to the Mets...:rolleyes:

I'm sorry, this is creepy.

This idear of a tribute or that I'm watching it? :confused:

edit: for 2 minutes.

it's not creepy that you're watching it. for a second earlier this week, i considered actually going down to the ballpawk since it's right here in philly, but then i realized that i have plenty of other things to do.

I don't think it's even possible for him to be on the Podium in Canton. Cooperstown, maybe...

Thanks Dave.....brain far t....fixed.

Definitely weyid. At least the casket is closed.

I would hope so. I mean gee wiz.

Well, he could have been lying in state behing glass, as they do for clergy, heads of state, etc.

This Kalas situation is so far and above the classiest thing I've ever seen any Philly team do. Its really great even if the wake is a shaky scenario, I guess he's that big of a deal. But from top to bottom, canceling the white house, going silent for the first inning last night, its really a tribute to the man and the city.

So did this website move to the central time zone?

Should we be talkin' Twins baseball?

I agree, it's all been classy.

But now that Harry's on the field, you gotta figure that if he doesn't get a hit in his first few at bats, they'll probably boo him.

I just hope they do this for Michael Kay. Hopefully they'll be able to find an empty piano container.

It's a great day out today boys!!!!!! Almost like RD's Florida weather. Maybe I'll do a 6 hour run to Glenny's BJ's?? That's how nice it is.

Too bad we didn't get a deal done, but Glenny's love for Kinsler blinded him into making the deal I offered.

Not a terrible deal either way.

Ugh I hate this 1pm start time. Da weathuh is too nice out theah.

Yeah, good deal for you probably.

It's cool how Extra Innings chose not to show the game Johan is pitching.....killer!

fml.....

Yeah, good deal for you probably.

I saw it like this. Small downgrade at pitcher, but with injuries, you never know. Kinsler/Morneau is basically a wash, and I have A Ramirez to plug in a 2nd, so that works well for me. And a huge upgrade for me with Beltran over Ankiel.

OK, boys. I was beginning to wonder if they were actually going to play Game 2 today.

Let's go Rangers!!!

Let's Go Mets!!!

Lots o' juice so far in this hockey game!!!

He waited till there was 1 out to run. Typical. Drives me nuts.

And the water can.

Whya re the Mets totally giving up on tomorrow's game bringing up Nelson Figeuroa? These teams with all the days off in April should try to have their pitches stick to every 5th day as much as they can. Ollie would be on his normal rest to pitch tomorrow but because of the babying scenario they have to bring up a crappy pitcher and make a roster move. Ridiculous.

Jesus. Beltran looks awful.

The Mets back to clutch hitting again.

<broken record> why do the mets always spit the bit with runners on base? WHY?!?! <\broken record>

WOOOOOOOOOOO! Callahan babaaaaaaayy!

Score!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Callahan Is Playing Awesome

Score!!!! Callahan!!!! 1-0 Rangers!!!!

Callahan!!!!

Dis kid is gonna be a stah.

woo hooo!....

go rangiz..i wish i could watch that one instead of a repeat of every other mets game.

They looked like 3 HS kids who couldn't believe one of the cheerleaders sat down at their lunch table. She could have aksed them to kill someone for her and bury the body, and they would have tripped over each other to do it.

I'm still worried about the Rangers. Lundqvist is playing great, but watching the Caps is scary. They are capable of scoring 3 goals in 5 minutes and completely turning the momentum of the series in their favor.

I think the Devils-Canes series will be a war. They probably split in Carolina. This series is the one I'd pick to go 7.

Was Joe there?

No. Could have been a pre-emptive restraining order scenario on her part.

Haven't been following the NBA much with the locals being out of the mix. Is is basically going to take an act of God to NOT see a Cavs/Lakers Final? Not that it wouldn't be exciting, but it's a bit predictable. I'd like to see them at least be challenged a bit.

I'm pretty sure this has been mentioned here, but I just saw those Joe B./DNL promos on SNY, the ones with Joe dancing with sunglasses and mugging for the camera. Wow. His jump the shark moment if ever there was.

Beautiful weather,Rangers on now,Yanks later on and i've got the stuck at work scenario till five thirty

OH THE PAIN

Any Chance Mike would do a show from MSG if the Rangers go up 2-0?

Not with 1050 as the flagship station of the Rangers. Even if Tank wants to (which he wouldn't), it won't happen.

more citifield talkup from burkhardt...telling us how you no longer have to strain your neck to see the field like you did at shea...save us the nonsense and just show the damn game.

It's a sad reality that with all the nonsense we heard on the radio, the Mets have a PR battle to fight. It shouldn't be that way, but it is.

Anyone like the new YES promo with the guy that called and said Russo smashed him super bowl week? Of course they cut the best parts out.

Russo on YES????

Oh, that's our hero Chris from Floral Park. "You want to get into it??"

Russo on YES????

Russo is not on, and he's not mentioned, but I believe it's the call from the week after the super bowl where a caller calls in to Mike'd Up and says "Russo smashed you super bowl week!" I'll try to find it on youtube.

Love seeing Ovechkin frustrated. And, stop whining, Darren. That was no worse than 3 of the calls against the Rangers Wednesday night. Plus, we know how hockey works. The Rangers will be shorthanded the entire third period.

Mike'd up, He's at MSG

On the Fan, for the Rangers game three-ee

Mike'd up, Mike'd up

He's at MSG, for lord Stanley's cup

Now pinch yourself, cause it's time to wake up

Sports Radio 66, W F A N!!!

It's sad. This guy's ERA is 6 something yet the only person getting a hit is Castillo.

Russo on YES????

Oh, that's our hero Chris from Floral Park. "You want to get into it??"

This is the call that was edited for a new YES commercial.

Thanks. Remembered it was Chris from Floral Park. A high seed in the MF.com Youtube contest. Instant hall of famah.

I absolutely HATE that. The refs always feel like they have to "even it up" if one team got a borderline call, or even a totally legit one.

And, there it is.

I don't get the hockey in the booth scenario, Emerick and Olcyk but I keep hearing Panag and Milbury as well. I though pang and milbury were in the studio?

Meanwhile there's a pretty good basketball game brewing. Rose putting on a show.

whoa!!! why didn't someone mention that the rangers game was on national tv today? here i am watching this crappy mets game thinking the rangers were on MSG. atrocious job outta me. anyway, <handwave> to the mets for now.

Thanks. Remembered it was Chris from Floral Park. A high seed in the MF.com Youtube contest. Instant hall of famah.

Yeah, he (Chris from FP) was great. Of course YES makes it look like he's all over Chris, but fans know what happened.

Looks like Murphy's been giving Sheff some tips for playing LF.

Almost....

Another Ranger penalty. Antropov this time.

Let me know if you figure out who's calling the game.

looks like emerick right now...the post before wasn't directed at you specifically sorry if it came off that way.

The zamboni better spend some extra time working on the ice leading to the Rangers penalty box. Looks like they'll be wearing it out in the 3rd.

If they keep giving them PP's, you have to think the Caps will break through eventually. They have too much talent, no matter how well the Rangers PK is doing.

Totally agree. Rangers got very lucky to take 7 penalties in game 1 and still win. You can only stick your head in the mouth of the lion so many times before he bites the f-ing thing off.

Mets better not waste another gem from Santaner

Yeah, right now is looking like his last year's starts. He gives up a run if that, and can't get the win.

Exactly.

I think the worst thing for the Rangers right now would be to give up the tying goal late in the 3rd, say in the last minute or two and then lose in OT. If you're that close to going up 2-0 heading home, losing a lead can be very deflating. Granted, they already got what they came for (a split) but at this point, you've got to be greedy. If you can get up 2 games going to MSG, you're putting a TON of pressure on Washington. The next game is basically do-or-die for them in that case.

well that sucked - seemed like Beltran could've run a a little harder back to 2nd

Other than Doc, these NBC broadcasts are tough to take. Milbury can't hide his contempt for the Rangers, and Pang would take Crosby over Ovechkin.

And, this feature where they pretend to be the coaches talking to the team is A) lame and B) ripped off from Lou Holtz on ESPN. And, Pang has the chance to talk to the Rangers after the 2nd period, and the first thing he says is "nice line changes." Ugh.

Nothing like jingoistic Canadians, eh?:rolleyes:

So is Santaner done? Is Gallardo done?

I see Gallardo is done.

So is Santaner done? Is Gallardo done?

Both done.

Eh. Out of all the sports hockey is the one where anything can happen and home ice means nothing so I wouldn't be that worried. Obviously going down 2-0 isn't ideal but everything that's gone wrong for the Caps in the first two games can just easily turnaround in the next two. The Rangers margin of error is very slim, even a slight drop in their level of play would send them home.

You're right; I just wouldn't want to ever fall behind 2-0 going on the road, especially when Washington is already showing clear signs of frustration. It almost reminds me of the '07 Rangers-Atlanta series. Rangers playing an explosive team w/questionable goaltending that they contain in the first two games on the road. In Game 3, the Rangers smoked Atlanta 7-0 and the series was over just like that. Things can turn around quickly, but they can also snowball just as fast.

Both done.

Thanks. Too bad Santana won't get the win unless they score this inning, he pitched great as usual.

Rickie Weeks...d'oh!

Thanks. Too bad Santana won't get the win unless they score this inning, he pitched great as usual.

1st and 3rd no out. Mets are great in these situations.

On MLB's Gamecast thing they put what pitch the batter loves and hates to face. For Alex Cora they were both fastball, lol.

Castillo is a monstah!

Figures. DP.

What a dive. And, the ref 50 feet away made the call.

I wish I could wager on things like the Caps scoring on this power play. I'd drop a box of ziti on that.

Every time I think Jokim Noah has made stride he screws up.

They just keep dodging these bullets. Another goal here would be huge.

Putz is absolutely filthy.

The Capitals and Ovechkin look terrible. Rangers are doing a good job.

Every time I think Jokim Noah has made stride he screws up.

Great atmosphere for a game 1

That's the third whistle today with the puck loose in front of the Caps' goal.

Nice job by the refs giving the celtics the win


Good job oomer. Marbury mush too strong for even the refs to stop. Bulls in 6.

Bulls win! Bulls win! Bulls win!

Rangers and Mets possibly both winning 1-0 on the same day? Can almost guarantee that's never happened.

Callahan is a beast.

2 down! 14 to go!

big win for the rangiz!!!!!!

I just found da TV! Rangahs win!!!

OMG...the sideline reporter at da bulls game who interviewed Rose after the game looks worse than that British woman who is the utube sensation with her singing.

Da Gahden is going to be wild Monday night.

Great win for the Rangers.

Da Gahden is going to be wild Monday night.

Mike will be a hockey officianado all of the sudden on Monday.

Ugh...can't stand her. I know it's a nice story and all but she just annoys me.

Mets Win & Rangers win!!

Great win for the Rangers.

Huge. Caps are really behind the 8-ball now. As someone else mentioned, MSG is going to be loud as hell on Monday.

and minutes later the mets win on a strike 'em out throw 'em out.

There it is. Put it in da books.

You can see how frustrated the Caps are now.

Will Glen Sather come out of his hole to come on with Mike on Monday?

Why do you see so much of the net and wires at the new yankee stadium.

looks terrible

Great day for Mets and Rangiz, for me...not so much. LOL

wang better show up for work today...no more 1 inning outings.

Can't get a bigger win than that!!!!!!! Just awesome..

Where is oomer? I need to know when Tyrus Thomas developed a jump shot? Rose is a beast, as dominate as he was against Kansas last year except he made all his free throws this time.

Oomy is still probably jumping up and down from that last Thomas jump shot. I thought that Big baby shot was in. Bad job outta Paul Pierce in the big spot. His hitch when he shoots free throws is annoying.

I can't believe the Rangers just shut that f'n team out. That's such a great job in that spot.

I'm stunned.

You can go far with an excellent goalie. Defense wins championships.

No worries...Randy Levine says the media is overblowing the overhead camera obstruction....Levine is an idiot and whoever set up that feature with the nets...etc..is an idiot.

Nick Swisher is putting me to tears. LMAO!!!!!!!

joke buck is really killing me with the A-Fraud talk.

I'm always curious why they call timeouts to draw up plays late in games. It just seems like they do that boring isolation play with an ugly looking jump shot just inside the 3 point line.

Ray Allen killed you guys. KILLED! I don't get why they do timeouts all the time too late in games. You need to call a timeout to make sure Pierce gets the ball?

A lot fewer complaints about Santana coming out after 7 with Putz and K-Rod behind him.

As Tank would say, today was a formuler win for da Mets.

I can't believe the Rangers just shut that f'n team out. That's such a great job in that spot.

I'm stunned.

I'm not a big hockey guy but don't the Caps have one of the best scoring teams in the NHL?

Ray Allen killed you guys. KILLED! I don't get why they do timeouts all the time too late in games. You need to call a timeout to make sure Pierce gets the ball?

totally agree. Calling a time out does more to help the defense get organized than anything else. Let your guys push the ball and try to catch the D in transition and get an easy basket or a mismatch.

Yankee Stadium is a bandbox. TEX goes deep

Carmona is awful.

Tex goes yard.

wang cut his ERA for the week in half by pitching a scoreless first.

That was a can of corn and it went out.

I'm not a big hockey guy but don't the Caps have one of the best scoring teams in the NHL?

They were 3rd in the NHL in goals scored.

Yankee Stadium is a bandbox. TEX goes deep

Always has, always will be.

How else do you think Yankee hitters have built up their inflated stats over the years?

Off the end of the bat no less...lol.

Please.. It's even worse this year. Outside of Jeter, Yankees batters rarely ever got cheap HRs. You think Paul O'Neill and Tino got cheap HRs at the old stadium? Most of those HRs were uppah deckahs. This year I've seen atleast 5 by Yankees and opponents.

The old Yankee Stadium (1923-1973 version) was only 296 down the line to right field IIRC. Ruth had a field day with that.

dude come'on, 318 and 314 down the lines?

I could hit it outta der....

Hafner is easily half his size.

Cough (contract) cough.

WTF are we gonna do about Wang?

Joe Buck is gonna vacation in dah clubhaus.

WTF are we gonna do about Wang?

What can you do? All you can hope for is that he comes out of it and finds his stride again.

WTF are we gonna do about Wang?

Jeez, what a mess Wang is.

Indians coming alive. Too bad their pitching is awful.

FU Wang....show some guts!!!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Oof60kDFqAc Someone needs to do this to Wang

Shin Choo Choo?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!??!

Dios mio, Wang. Sink that freakin' ball!

Buck thinks their are guys in the stands wearing Armani suits.

Shin Soo Choo!

Tell that to McCarver!

Wang with the one pitch again!!!! Didn't he develop a slider last year? What the hell happened to that?

Pitching coach comes out to tell Wang that batting practice was earlier, and this is the game.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Oof60kDFqAc Someone needs to do this to Wang

I'd love to bitchslap him myself right now. (I'm turning into Glendale)

Buck thinks their are guys in the stands wearing Armani suits.

To be fair, there were two guys in front of me yesterday wearing Friday business casual clothing.....let's just say they don't shop at Sears all that much.

mute might be an option for this game. Buck isn't that bad but McCarver, PIPE DOWN!!!!

It's inevitable. Although you don't have to be rich to act like you're rich. I'm sure we all know "that guy" or "that girl", who buys the finest clothes, cars, etc. and then they wonder why they don't have a dime to their name and they owe $20K in cc debt.

They gotta do something about these expensive seats scenario. It simply looks awful having all these empty seats.

It's a beautiful Saturday on the opening weekend of a new stadium...

What's this mess going to be like in late July?

I can feel a bleeding ulcer coming on.

Yankees fans are going off on Wang. Well deserved. This bum doesn't know how to battle. CAN YOU EVER GO 5-6 INNINGS WITHOUT YOUR BEST STUFF!!!!!!!!

Is this C.M Wang? Or his twin brother Jimmy Wang?

Wang can't put anyone away

They should sell it at lower prices (they're trying to hawk it to season ticket holders who already have seats), but that would be "unfair" to those who already bought tickets in that section....

I'm sure by mid-July they'll lower the prices and say "too bad" to the other season ticket holders in field level.

FOX killing the Yanks and the seats.

At least these guys are blatantly showing the empty seats and discussing it. On Yes, Kaye and company would be sent to Siberia if that was done.

Wang was lucky that ball didn't carry....

Swisher has to make that catch. COME ON

Why can't they just refund the 30 people who bought them at full price?

It's time to call up Hughes--he couldn't be worse, and this is trainwreck baseball.

Why can't they just refund the 30 people who bought them at full price?

The Yankees, give back money?!?!? HAHA.

Sheesh I feel bad for Wang.

Poor guy looks like he's gonna cry.
