Shake It Up

Centerfield Jun 18 2007 08:33 AM

This slump is obviously not going to end without some action on our parts. Do something different today. Order something different for lunch. Walk home using a different route. No tie for me today.

I'll do my part. I'm gonna' have Equal in my coffee today instead of Splenda. C'mon everybody. Pitch in. Our lads need your help. Later

So I should wear men's clothes?

Isn't this how George Costanza landed his job with the Yankees? "chicken salad on white bread with a cup of tea!!" rather than tuna on toast with coffee, (although everyone knows that salmon is the opposite of tuna)

This morning, instead of the New York Daily News and the Philadelphia Inquirer, I read the Fort Worth Star Telegram. (I read it yesterday, too. For their preview of the Mets-Yankees finale, they said that the Mets will "invade Brooklyn" to play their crosstown rivals.)

I started the IGT 8+ hours early, rather than wait until the 3rd inning.

Glavine is the Man! He is the greatest Mets pitcher, if not the greatest overall, of all time. I love him. I'm naming my son Tom Glavine Point.

I may think a good thought for the first time in two weeks.

Gwreck Jun 18 2007 08:36 PM

Instead of going to the game tonight, which I ordinarily would've done, me and my 8-11 record at Shea this year stayed home. Hmmm...

Elster88 Jun 18 2007 08:40 PM

For tomorrow, do you do whatever it was that you did today? Or do you change more things tomorrow?

Dickshot went to the game,he needs to go every night for this home stand.

Didn't they used to play Shake It Up on the Yankees ads? Anyway, I moved into a new office today, that's pretty different.

I'm going to believe Milledge is not a sexual predator

Delgado shook it up and wore his socks high with good results.

sharpie Jun 19 2007 08:44 AM

No doubt Carlos' high socks were key. The socks must stay!

cooby Jun 19 2007 08:30 PM

I guess we'll have to shake some more

Centerfield Jun 20 2007 01:16 PM

Just so we're clear, shake the way you shook on Monday, not Tuesday.

Edgy DC Jun 20 2007 01:25 PM

Carlos needs to wear his socks up to his ears.

Centerfield Jun 21 2007 01:24 PM

The socks thing isn't working. I'm open to suggestions. Other things I've come up with: 1. Brawl. I think the Mets could use one to get a little life in them. We'll give them until the 3rd to mix it up with the A's. If nothing happens, we storm the dugout in the 4th. 2. Scapegoating. This is a little tough. Beltran would have been a pretty good candidate but he had 3 hits last night. All of the starters have had at least a decent start somewhere in there. I guess in a pinch, we could blame this on Benitez...the Mets haven't been the same since his meltdown at Shea. 3. Voodoo.

sharpie Jun 21 2007 01:28 PM

I think the socks work but it must rotate. Delgado goes back to normal length but Beltran wears the high socks, next day Reyes wears the high socks, etc. It's the only way.

metsmarathon Jun 21 2007 01:51 PM

well, i think its clearly number 3. how could the mets troubles possibly be un-related to armando benitez?
