Thought of the Day

Here you go Nolan. I’ve been delaying this post for a multitude of reasons. One, I’m still not entirely ready to admit that the Mets landed Santana for four prospects, when much better offers from both the Yanks and the Sawx were on the table. Two, I truly believe that if the Yankees had worked just that much harder this would’ve been a done deal, and we would’ve had a defiant rotation going into this season. Alas, it was not to be, and Omar Menaya adds another Central American stud to his team.

It really pisses me off that I have to admit that the New York baseball Mets are going to be a really good team this year. How are you going to argue with a staff of Johan, Pedro, J. Maine, Perez and Duq? That’s a great set of five guys that can do serious damage if (and I use if very cautiously) they can be managed well. Willie Randolph needs to do an excellent job working in his ‘pen guys this season. If he can do that, look out for the Metropolitans in 2008.

On a completely separate note, we got a comment today asking about our Pink Taco predictions in Super Bowl XLII. They, along in depth analysis on the game, will be up either tomorrow or Saturday, depending on when we can find time to pump out a great closing piece to sum up an excellent NFL season. We’ll see you all then.
