What, Burnitz couldn't have posed for some beefcake? No wonder we got rid of him.

I know. It's not like I ran out of body oil after I slathered Reyes.

Turk's parked in front of a wall of corned-beef and Dinty Moore, while Fonzie looks like the photog just got him in medias diarrhes. I'm not sure which one's inadvertently sh*ttier. I'm not sure if its the preponderance of man-meat, but I thought for a second Johan was hawking A-1.

Is Turk gathering canned goods en route to moving off the grid? You know, to fill in the gaps on whatever he can't personally kill.

In a sense, Turk's been living off the grid all along.

Turk was probably hawking the honey

Some thoughts though, and this didn't just hit me by the way Jeromy Burnitz was the best we had in RF for the noughties?....

[quote="metirish":1df00x4i]Some thoughts though, and this didn't just hit me by the way Jeromy Burnitz was the best we had in RF for the noughties?....[/quote:1df00x4i] I notice Burnitz and Green are tied with 8 votes. Why does Jeromy get the nod? (Which doesn't obscure the larger issue of ten years, nothing but fleeting/suckhole RFers.)

They weren't when I last checked which was several hours before the poll closed....I should now ask how Jeromy Burnitz and Green are the best we had in RF during the noughties.

David looks like Tom Cruise in "Cocktail"

Edgy DC Dec 18 2009 07:40 PM Re: Your NY Mets Team of the Noughties

Maybe Tom Cruise's spazzy stand-in from Cocktail. It's more like 20 years without a legit rightfielder, but who's counting?

Yeah, I'm the guy in uniform so I win!
