Ambler I predicted the same thing in the game thread. If Robin is back to 99 form this
year could be a lot easier than we think.

You were saying?
Ambler, you are so droll. I mean, you couldn't be any droller if you were British!
Pinch-hitting for the Miracle Man...I ask you. What kind of logic is *that*?!

right on metsc
that was a very good sign indeed. As were 3BB's by benny vs a great pitcher and
Payton;s AB in 7th to work out the walk behind in the count.

Thread preservation.
I agree. This one is too priceless to let it slip into oblivion. And there was a PARTY
goin' on in the fish tank when I got home from work--all the plants were dug up & the
gravel was getting moved all to 1 side...I swear, they KNEW.

Too bad there isn't a archival museum for these classic moments (threads). This one
and the poetic odes to Rey would be first ballot inclusions if such existed.

Re: Thread preservation.
Well,I've got over a hundred threads archived. What to do with them...now that's
another story. Anyone have any clever ideas? (Outside of my getting a life, that is;
I've tried that. Doesn't work.)

I tip my hat to you sir, for posting your call before knowing the outcome. Much more
interesting than just rehashing the critical points after the game.

Re: pinch hit for Ventura
Consider this a bump to the top.
I'm cautiously optimistic that we'll be looking for ambler's "The Mets will start 3-6"
thread to bump up to the top, as well.

Re: pinch hit for Ventura
Here's a hobby, doc: archive every thread started by ambler.
And, lest posterity forget the context, Ventura responded with a two-run homer
against Rocker, and won the game with a two-run shot in extra innings.
Long live MASATO.

What to do with archived posts
Hey Doc,
On another mailing list I am a part of, on of the members collects all the classic posts,
groaners, stupid comments, and all around funny stuffs, and at the end of the year
(season ?) publishes them on the net. He breaks things down by category and then
awards prizes for the truly best lines of the year. He calls his award the "Spuddy". I
don't see why we can't give out "Oscar Madisons" to those classic list moments.
For Example from last nights game ...
Best Homer Simpson Moment ...

The thread must live!! Mets take 2/3 to slay Ted demons, "LOBin" stays hot!
#8 & #9 hitters with 4 hits, 4 rbis!
ambler is a magical being. I'm convinced.

Some good karma for the weekend. Good luck in Canada. Reminds me of the
commercial:
Bear: "Blue!"
Japanese businessmen: "Brew!"
Bear: "No BLUE!"
JB: "Brew!"
Bear: "Close enough"
JB: "Krose enuff!"
and then at the end of the commercial they all shout "Canada!!!"
Hey, it's been a long day, and I was too busy to post.
