I blame Straw with his Rivera comparison for putting the idea in dumb jerry's head to use Mejia as a RP. Jer would've never figured it out on his own. This team is run by a ship of fools.

Eh, all the scouts have been screaming that Mejia's build reeks of future reliever. These are the same scouts that said the same thing about Pedro Martinez.

There's a reason they are scouts and not GM's. Well, except for Omar, that is. I guess it was his low initial price tag that appealed to the wilpons.
And every other team seems to have their ST games in HD. Not the mets!

We're joking but it's good to see the "old Ollie" for once. It'll be a relief to not know if he'll suck from game to game as opposed to knowing for certain.

I do love that we have mostly our starting lineup and we're getting two hit. And Ollie not striking out a single batter is worrisome.

Ollie was hitting 90-92 pretty consistently. I think I saw 93 once. In his last inning it seemed there were a lot more 88's. I saw a few balls hit hard, but not many. Of course I was doing other things while watching the game and missed bits and pieces.

Here's hoping he just needs to build up his stamina then. 93mph is definitely a great sign.

Yeah, what I don't get is that the Isles kept playing Weight at the point on powerplays despite the fact he obviously had no shot left. I would have played him on the half wall so he can still make use of his passing abilities.

Just went back to look at Ollie's start. Most of his FB's were 91-92 in the first 3 innings and 90-91 in the 4th. He hit 93 4 times, although 2 of those were wild. 2 balls were hit well. A sharp grounder to 1st and a liner to LF off of a 88mph FB (his last pitch in the 3rd) that pagan tracked down near the wall.
All-n-all, a promising start.
Ellis Dee
03-13-2010, 08:48 PM
Ollie's pitch count was decent at just under 60 over 4.
Guns juiced lol
Must be.

Watching the Devils/Islanders game. Tavares really looks tired at this point. He looks slow on his feet and even his stick work. None of his early season explosiveness.
Ellis Dee
03-13-2010, 08:57 PM
LOL or maybe ollie was juiced.
From a more realistic perspective, the 3rd inning could have been his typical implosion inning. After getting the first 2 outs he proceeded to walk the next 2. Then he threw 88mph cheese that pagan made a nice play on. If he doesn't catch the ball its' a double and 2 runs score.

In the Crosby-Ovechkin debate, I side with Ovechkin but I hate how Caps fans suddenly pay attention to their team after they got good. They had Ovechkin for a few years before anyone decided to care about the team. But I like the Hawks as my Western conference team.

Well at the time he had just coached the Rangers to the Cup. He did make that trade to get Pronger and he acquired MacInnis. The good Blues teams of the late 90s were built by him, why the hate?

Yeah. Pronger for Shanny in hockey terms was an even deal. The only thing that screwed it up was that Shanny pissed and moaned about playing in Hartford and then got traded to Detroit.
He did do the MacInnis trade.
Gretzky didn't like Keenan from playing against his Flyers teams and playing for him in the Canada Cup. Then the Rangers had an opening and gave him the chance to reunite with Messier. Nothing was going to stop him from moving to NY based on that.

I once sat directly behind the visitors bench at a Blues/Maple Leafs game once in Toronto. Keenan had a habit of resting his hand on the ledge and curling his fingers between the shelf and the plexiglass. My drunken friend kept pounding on the glass trying to smash his fingers. I was certain that we were going to get thrown out of the game. And we were on television a good bit. His wife was at home and the phone started ringing mid-game telling her that Jimmy was drunk at the Leafs game.

New York Jets coach Rex Ryan underwent a weight-loss procedure Saturday to help him fight obesity.
The husky Ryan had lap-band surgery at NYU Medical Center, and was relaxing at his home Saturday night in New Jersey, team spokesman Bruce Speight told The Associated Press.
Speight said Ryan also had a hernia repaired.
The New York Daily News first reported the story on its Web site Sunday morning.
The outpatient procedure came a day after Ryan and the Jets wined and dined free agent running back LaDainian Tomlinson, trying to persuade him to join the team that had the league's No. 1 rushing offense last season.
The 47-year-old Ryan frequently has poked fun at himself and his rotund midsection, including after unflattering belly-baring photos of him changing into a Hurricanes jersey during a Florida-Carolina NHL game last month floated around the Internet.
"I'm watching ESPN and I'm like, 'Whoa, that's not a real good shot,' " Ryan said during the NFL combine. "I mean, don't get me wrong, I get hit on all the time by women."
Ryan also partially blamed his weight for him not getting the head coaching job with the Atlanta Falcons after the 2007 season. He thought he was a shoo-in for the job that eventually went to friend and former Baltimore Ravens colleague Mike Smith.
"I think I was too fat," Ryan said with a laugh in December.
Good for him

Nice, my Keenan story isn't as good. The season he was coach for the Rangers we used to get corporate tickets right behind the Rangers bench near the tunnel from the Rangers lockerroom. Keenan was famous for wearing $1000 suits so every time he'd come in and out of the lockerroom my dad would shout "nice suit Mike".
1k suits......2.50 haircuts.

Haha! That's great. He did have a nice suit on, if I remember correctly. Jimmy kept threatening to pour his beer over the top of the glass, or something like that. Someone else did that night as the team was heading into the tunnel, I think, and it created a bit of an incident in the papers. I was just thrilled that I didn't have to bail my friend out of jail.
wow not so good for Maine today
Santana did well it looks
there's no reason miss st should be sitting on the bubble right now
miss st > vtech
lunardi is insane on this one
evan turner would have hit that
great. Need 3 lol
We cant shoot open threes much less when we need one lol
We have a better shot and getting two AND 1 lol
seriously rick stansbury might be the paul hewitt of the sec
this team shouldn't need to win this game to get in. hof underachievement
whenever they intentional foul i wonder if you could just throw one up and get three foul shots lol
LOL
still gotta play five more guys
hahaha i was so excited i thought for a second they won lol
miss st has to be spent now lol
Seriously if we win, Miss st still needs to get a bid
I keep saying id give Cousins the NPOY..........ppl think im crazy but he's been the key to our year.
Cousins getting two quick fouls killed us in this game. When he's on the floor we are soo much better its not even funny
miss st passes the eye test but they've beaten nobody besides vandy
I dont agree with Dykes there. I mean.........it took a made ft, a missed ft, a rebound, and a crazy ass ending shot to send it into OT. I dont blame Miss st for fouling
oooh man this is getting heated
turner wouldnt have made that :)
miss st won't get in now
kentucky refs > duke refs
It's so funny because if you go on Catspause you'd think every single ref is out to get UK. They thought the refs kept it close so that MSU would get a bid lol.
I don't think about it too much. Calls go our way at times, calls go against us......they don't balance out but thats basketball.
I don't believe the whole ref conspriacy thing.

Lunardi gets alot credit but if you think about it, its a joke. There's automatic bids, locks........when it comes down to it he's only guessing on a certain amount of teams lol.
There was a study done and although he picks them right.......his seeding is horrible compared to others and thats really the tough part in predicting.
Anyone here can predict the 65 teams and go 63/65 or 64/65 lol

i don't see either gerorgetown or osu seeded as high as you project. i like villanova & temple to rise above 3 seeds
I think Georgetown might be a lil high. That was my last 2. I'm not sure who else to give it to.

marquette has played so many close games all year in the BE meatgrinder and finished so respectfully, i cannot rule them out from winning the whole thing. lol...
Notre Dame is dangerous as a 8/9.........thats not a fun 2nd round matchup for the 1 seed.
ND has been outstanding offensively and now recently they have kicked it up a notch on defense.

03-14-2010, 05:31 PM
Rangers with a big win against the Flyers.
Now two points behind the Bruins but the Bruins have two games in hand. It's very necessary to win that game on the 21st.
if nd keeps running that slowdown stuff, they'll be a tough out for sure
great job by brey down the stretch, a coach i never really thought much of before
rumor is that duke has the last 1 seed
i think wvu and osu deserve it more
I think so as well but it wont matter
Duke and WVU will be pitted against each other anyways........so to me weakest 1 or strongest 2 doesnt really matter. WVU will beat Duke IMO
wvu can be pretty brutal on offense though
they could def get upset before that. duke could too b/c they rely too much on a few players
I'm just happy Duke isnt playing in North Carolina this year :)
Remind me of UK.......shooting can be shaky at times but they rebound so well they get so many second chance points
I want a touch screen like Lunardi has lol
ha, someone on my maryland board is dropping bracket spoilers all over the place
haha what are they saying? lol
lol that's where my duke "rumor" came from
I think it makes sense Duke being the 4th 1 or 1st 2nd seed
apparently 2 seeds are wvu, osu, nova (?), and kstate

thanks for the compliments about nd, guys. there was serious talk here about dumping brey after that home loss to st john's. lol that was rock bottom.. but the team found some guts & started to play some "d" (maybe inspired by the lady irish)
... and who knows where they go from here..
the 8/9 seed is brutal...
oooh man.

no insult to st john's. but we had just had brutal losses to rutger's seton hall & cincy
and a lot of us had just had had it w/brey at that point...
lol let's just say that based on what i'm reading that the BIG BEAST is very highly regarded
whoa duke over cuse for the 3rd 1 seed?
that's the only slight on the big east
rather play Duke then Cuse in the final four game anyways :)
Its almost as if we are the overall 1..........because IMO we got paired with the weakest 1.
i hate msu as a potential 2nd round opponent
izzo teams do well in the tourny but they arent as good this season
wow tennessee got screwed
lmao UT a 6
That blowout loss really hurt them
lol that whole bracket is death
ku, osu, gtown, md, msu, tennessee
with g tech as a 10 lolz
oh no
i dont wanna get paired with WVU
so UT gets a 6 seed
and Florida gets in at a 10 seed.
UT wayyyy too low
UF wayyyy too high
minnesota really shouldn't be in
florida too
vols should be a 3 or 4 seed, no idea how they wound up a 6

underachievers game

ugh
how far did purdue drop lol
Thats bs
WVU could have been a 1...........at least one of the better 2's and should be pitted against Duke or Cuse............thats crap.
2nd round matchup vs Texas? Sheesh
perdue didnt drop
they will be the 2 in the Duke region *rolls eyes
i think they will be 4
texas or wake in the 2nd round
that kinda sucks for uk
told you the big east gets insane respect
nd a 6 is crazy
I don't understand it.
And as the 2nd 1 seed....we have to go to new orleans, not milwaukee?
kansas and UK the two best teams got the two toughest roads
duke gets the easiest road wtf
think about the south
2. Nova who plays zero defense
3. Baylor
4. Purdue who is without their best player
5. Texas AM

this is truly one of the worst brackets ever
kansas is the best team and gets a bracket filled with reg season/tourney champs of major conferences
duke is the worst 1 seed (or should be, i guess they were 3rd) and get a fucking cakewalk
all picked WVU over UK lol
nightmare for me
wait a second he just said he threw them in for consideration........then how come they werent the highest 2? WTF
you cant say this is based on an S Curve when u take the best 2 seed and put them with the second best 1 instead of the weakest 1.

One Cora didn't get to that Coleman said he should have handled and the other I think was misplayed by Franceour, but I'm not positive about that.

I'm not happy right now.
Are you upset about Kentucky's seeding?

Not seeding....I meant bracket!
I just don't see how Kansas and UK.....the two clear cut best teams end up with the hardest brackets while Duke and Syracuse get it easy....especially Duke.
And then to go on TV....the chairman guy saying that WVU was considered for a 1 seed and then to place them in OUR bracket when the strongest 2 is supposed to play the weakest 1. It doesnt make any sense. I honestly think WVU will beat us in the Elite 8 and whats worse is ill never hear the end of it lol. It's a no win for me lol.
And to put Duke in front of Syracuse.........to make cuse go out West just isnt right.
UT only a 6 seed?
Florida in...........as a 10? They shouldnt even be in the tournament.
And here I thought mets management was awful at their job lol

The truth is after the first 4 seeds in each bracket, the rest are basically arbitrary, imo. I agree I would have seeded some teams higher and some lower, but in the long run...it probably won't matter.
odu is pretty good, it may as well be an 8/9 game
the more i look at the midwest, i wonder wtf they were thinking
the 7/10 game has three potential lottery picks in it lol
hmm tickets are available for new orleans........and ill be in miami that following week.............oh man im tempted lol. 198 bucks but I think thats for all games (3).........i wonder if i could just get saturday game

i do agree that they screwed up the brackets. As usual Duke gets the advantage.

i have to do some research on odu. i admit i know next to nothing about them.
I'm looking at Kenpom.com right now for info on E Tenn St lol.
They turn teams over alot........14th in the nation creating To's lol.
Lucky for us, thats all they do well lol
hmm ETSU only lost to Tenn by 12 lol

Gee, Digger Phelps likes ND's chances....I'm shocked.
John, Your fave coach, Mr. Calipari is going to be on ESPN in a minute or 2.
lol I know. I made a thread about it on Catspause and there was like 50 threads saying "cal is coming up" haha
odu won one of the toughest mid-major conferences in the reg season and tournament. beat gtown as you said. crushed a decent charlotte team. had tough battles with lots of good teams: mizzou, richmond, northern iowa. they're really strong on D and have a solid big man who is a double-double machine
houston kinda sucks, how are they even a 13 seed. md should win easily, but they'll probably make it tough b/c god hates my teams

That guy wears his tie too long. How can he be expected to pick the right teams when he can't even tie his tie correctly?

This bracket is horrible. Give Duke a chance to get to the final four and screw over the top 2 teams in the country. I really have no problem for once about the teams that missed. I think a case could of been made for Miss St. CBS was shocked at the Illini not making it in. I laugh at that.

digger always is pro-irish. which surprises me sometimes, considering the way he was shown the door by nd some years ago...

Without a doubt. We will probably being starting 3 Sophmores (Momo, Williams & Hill), 1 junior (Fogg) and a freshmen (Someone we're recruiting) next season. Jamille Horne will probably be asked to leave. We need a center. Very hard to find.
I'm waiting up.
I need to see what time we play
oh no Peter Graves's life is over, over.
we play 7:15
WVU 12 on Friday
