Nothing from Dave for a while, is he alright, did he get lost in the uniform rack in the baseball room? This actually would not be difficult! Does he have another job besides entertaining me (almost) weekly with his witty blogs? I need answers and I need them now! I will form a search party soon. I'm concerned, he’s in Michigan for C sake, have you all looked at a map, that place is practically Canada, and you all know about those potential terrorists. Maple leaf my butt! Damn, those red coats on their “high and mighty horses” and extremely benign appearing flag. The only group that scares me more is the Hessians (not really, but I always like to throw in a Hessian comment). Listen all, I’m truly concerned and I'm not going to take it any longer!! If only I could get a direct flight to Michigan (will I need a passport?). I’m going to place a call to the Salvation Army, I’m sure the whimpy French in Quebec will be on their collective knees in no time. Plus we have no real troops left.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11386152.post-44346060974519404132007-11-08T15:45:00.000-05:002007-11-08T15:45:00.000-05:00I'll out run him (I hope), that's my only chance f...I'll out run him (I hope), that's my only chance for survival!<BR/><BR/>TW GBAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11386152.post-63358641102419698912007-11-08T15:14:00.000-05:002007-11-08T15:14:00.000-05:00You, my cousin, live dangerously!You, my cousin, live dangerously!Mets Guy in Michiganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04048899230969074579noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11386152.post-78625700026352452512007-11-08T13:43:00.000-05:002007-11-08T13:43:00.000-05:00Age, is a relative concept, both as a noun and adj...Age, is a relative concept, both as a noun and adjective. I recently learned that it differs for men and women. If you are a man, 65 is old!! I mean you might as well buy a motorcycle and ride off into the sunset, or adopt a football team that gives you so much misery you forget (which is done a lot) how old you are. Now for women, interesting enough, old is 68 and that changes every September. So, for example, next September old for a women is 69 and so on. <BR/>TW GBAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11386152.post-41373646110728191892007-11-08T10:50:00.000-05:002007-11-08T10:50:00.000-05:00Hey Mets Guy!

He's actually 41 (a tribute to Tom, no doubt).<BR/><BR/>You know what I find amazing? Ed Kranepool was never the oldest guy on the club in any of his 18 seasons, not even the ones when he was the last 1962 Met (which was all of them after a while). Ed Kranepool pinched his last hit before he was 35.<BR/><BR/>And he always seemed old...thus the classic banner unfurled at Shea circa 1965, "IS ED KRANEPOOL OVER THE HILL?"Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
