Going All Lenny Harris on Your Ass

Great quotes from Willie in the Snooze this morning:

"Let's make the playoffs too, and let's beat Carlos Beltran."

"I mean, how cool would that be? Trade our best hitter and then send him home?"

I don't like it. Stupid reason to be trying to make the playoffs. (Pelf cited this Quote in the post game interview)

They should've been trying already. maybe Beltran would still be here.

Ah, the pessimsm hits again.

You find any motivation you can. And sacking up and taking up the challenge in finding a way to do it with the guys available beats the hell out of Pelfrey whining that the Mets don't bring in better guys to help.

Guys?

It was also delivered in a lighthearted way and not meant to be analyzed for its smartness but its humor.

well true, and I didn't hear the inflection, just Pelfrey repeating it.

I just haven't separated "Beltran losing" and "bad thing" in my mind yet.

Especially when it's Willie Harris wishing it.

These Metsies have just as much of a chance of making the playoffs without Beltran as they had with him.

I'm going to enjoy the next two months regardless.

IMO, very little chance, either way. I'm just enjoying the ride. YMMV.

Re: Going All Lenny Harris on Your Ass

Terry Collins: [at a team meeting] Can I have your attention, please? I have something I think you all ought to know about. It seems that Mr. Wilpon doesn't think too highly of our worth. He put this team together because he thought we'd be bad enough to finish dead last, knocking attendance down to the point where he could merge this team with the Dodgers... and get rid of all of us for better personnel.

Jason Bay: Even me?

Collins: Even you, Bay.

RA Dickey: What if we DON'T finish last?

Collins: He'll REPLACE you with somebody who WILL. After this season, you'll be sent back to the minors or given your outright release.

David Wright: [stands] Well then I guess there's only one thing left to do.

Bay: What's that?

Wright: Win the whole gosh-darn thing.
[long pause]

Jose Reyes: [stands] Yeah. [pulls shirt out of pants, starts dancing]

Lucas Duda: [pounds his hand] YES!

Next Day:



(except it's Terry instead of Lou Brown, and it's a cardboard cutout of Fred)

Funny stuff, CF.
But are you really sure you'd rather see Fred naked? Even a cardboard cutout of him?

Later

Hilarious,

Meanwhile there is this

"@AdamRubinESPN: Willie Harris has asked Justin Turner to get him a Twitter account on Thursday."

Someone get Greg to write a buddy-movie writeup based around this.
