He looks different without the cowboy hat. I spoke with him on the phone once. Mets were playing the Dodgers, I'm guessing, and he was somewhere where he couldn't watch the game and this was pre-MLB on your phone days, so he asked for someone to call him with an update. So I called him and told him we were losing or whatever.

A couple of us are fb friends with Amblood. He's quite the travelling adventurer.

I might have saved a copy; I'll look later when I can more conveniently get on the ol' way-way-back server and look around.

That's wild. Wonder if that was a feature in the old MOFO board. Gotta keep you rabble-rousers in line somehow. |

Nah. The guy at the top was something like 14 y/o (hence the "feel old?" subject) back when he started a NYM website which was attached to a fan forum (Mets Online FOrum) which eventually spawned this place when much of this crew made a break for it after that one started to get overrun by too many teenagers (of all ages) and after too many disagreements turned into too many full out flame wars. God help me but I did love it so. The next guy mentioned (Weisman) kind of ran the place with a bias towards those he was friends with and against those with whom he wasn't. Most of us weren't. He's referenced in the 'Airstrip' piece but that was written by a guy, 'Big Al', who'd pitched as high as AAA before arm injuries ended his dream ... or at least that's what he claimed. Could have been an actuary for all we know; you know the definition of an actuary, right? ... someone too dull to be an accountant. 'Al' would only post occasionally but when he did it would often be with the flair of a noir fiction writer which tended to make him a breath of fresh air in a sea otherwise full of angry screamers. 'Ambler' was the forum curmudgeon.

When & how did he become a Yankees fan? Or was he wolf in sheep's clothing the whole time? |

I didn't think he was a Yankees fan, I think that's just the job he got. Is that right? |

It beats getting to told to fuck off, and that I should excommunicate myself from Catholic righty family members because of views that don't fall in complete lock step with an SJW agenda.

Yup. He wanted to be a sportswriter and that's where MLB.com assigned him. Don't know if they intentionally gave him the Yanx Because they weren't his childhood favorite, but that's what I'd do if I were them. Last thing you'd want on your staff as a rookie writer is some goggle-eyed fan-boi looking to be the team's unofficial pr agent. |

I failed, most spectacularly in fact, to read a room and got caught up trying to answer one too many loaded questions by trolls, even after I said I was stopping. Fairly certain my righty affiliation is known here? Plus Namor has all that covered in these parts.

Was never a fan of Weissman. The one time I met him, he seemed to like himself a little too much. Met Ambler once at Shea when I was there with Kase ages ago.

I understand being conservative or leaning right. Abortion is a very tough issue. I agree immigration laws need to be enforced. And I'm certainly not happy when I pay taxes. But to support this President. Man. I lose you there Steve.

I don't actually support the Narcissistic Cheeto in Chief, ‘Bucket is reading too much into some posts where I go after biased opinions on anyone with an (R) next to the name where they'd treat a Dem with kid gloves.
