Funny to have Triple Happiness where Phillies' wins count toward happiness. If they continue to do well we may have to count their losses for happiness again. And if the MFYs continue to suck, we may just drop them off.

If the MFY's continue to suck, it might be fun to re-visit the original TH teams (Braves and MFY's). It might end up being half the season.

If we celebrate every time the Braves lose this season, we're going to run out of bandwidth by August.

That's a risk I'm in favor of taking ;)

As long as there are YLDBs, there will be happiness when the MFYs lose.

The Yankees never drop off. Crosstown humiliation never gets old.

The Yankees can never lose often enough enough. To consider dropping them from inclusion in the triple happiness thread is blasphemy.

5/8/16 Mets 4 - Padres 3 Cubs 4 - Nationals 3 (13 innings) Red Sox 5 - Yanx 1 (and in only 2:27 ... I didn't think that was possible for a Yanx/Sawx game)

The key was knuckleballer Steven Wright* for Boston who tossed a complete game 3-hitter on just 101 pitches. By contrast, Harvey today did 102 through 6 and Cashner for SD was at 98 after just 5 Also helps when all scoring comes via quick-strike HRs: 4 for BoSox, 1 for Yanx. * his friend's father invented the battery insertion diagram you know

And with all games ending within a two minute span of each other: Mets 6 - Marlins 2 Reds 7 - Nationals 2 Orioles 6 - Yanquis 5 TH on June 3rd (another sleepy, dusty Delta day) 2016

Last night was a much delayed and much appreciated TH night. Mets 2 - Royals 1 Rockies 8 - Yanx 4 Dodgers 3 - Nationals 2 (3 LA runs in the 8th) And you can even make it a Fourple Happiness day if you throw in the Braves (6 straight wins!!) knocking off the Marlins in 10 innings to help us regain 2nd place. It's been a long Happiness drought.

July the 2nd 2016 will forever be known as a TH day. 1st - Colon out-duels Jake Arrieta and Familia has a perfect 1-2-3 9th for a 4-3 NYM win over the Cubs 2nd - Cincinnati takes advantage of several Washington errors to score 5 times in the 10th inning for a 9-4 win 3rd - Andrew Miller pitched a no-hit inning in the 8th to preserve the 1-1 tie, but his first pitch of the 9th got hit for a walk-off HF by Justin Upton. I guess not having the lead caused Girardi to deviate from his 'formula' of Bettances - Miller - Chapman but, cause-and-effect or not, it looks like this was just the 3rd time this year that Miller has worked into a 2nd inning. Bonus - The Braves put a'hurtin' on Jose Fernandez and the Marlins opening up a 1-1/2 game gap between 2nd & 3rd

Firecrackers are Happy!! Mets 8 - Marlins 6 Brewers 1 - Nationals 0 ChiSox 8 - Yanquis 2

Since the Marlins are chasing them, this is really a Quadruple Happiness Day.

I know it's not really Triple Happiness under the defined terms, but last night was pretty sweet. Maybe we call it triple happiness (not capitalized). Mets 5, Marlins 2. Rockies 2, SF 0. Reds 2, St. Louis 1 And even though the MFY's won, the Red Sox had a champagne celebration in the Bronx. We are so triply happy!

Benjamin Grimm Sep 29 2016 01:20 PM Re: Triple Happiness 2016

I think the current definition of Triple Happiness is indeed wins by the Mets and losses by the Cardinals and Giants. There's nothing more important than that that needs to happen for the Mets this week.
