Hello…Vargas
Perez and Vargas are both Lefties, instead of one working for the Post Office and one works for Fed Ex, one is a potential staff ace and the other flat out sucks.
I’m not going to bother with a game recap, no one wants to read it anyway…
Looking ahead in the schedule, the Mets move on from Colorado down to Houston for a four game set with the Houston Astros. I will be in attendance for the Saturday and Sunday Match-ups. I had a fleeting hope that the starters would be Tommy Glavine and, my favorite Mets pitcher Oliver Perez. Unfortunately this won’t be the case.
I ponyed up 100 bucks for two field level seats behind the Astros dugout for Sunday’s series conclusion and the thought I had all night was “I plunked down a C-note to watch this guy? Effing Great.”
None the less, I will be in attendance this upcoming weekend and will be posting on the game, as always armed with pro-Mets/Astro-baiting signage. Mrs. Lonestar will be sporting a “Jose, Jose, Jose” sign. Last year I brought a “Beltran for MVP” to the series finale which drew much scorn from Houstonians, but it was the same game Beltran hurt himself crashing into that stupid wall in center. I like to hack off people wearing ratty Roger Clemens jerseys and all, but I don’t want the bad Karma this year. More to come, but any sign suggestions will be appreciated and quickly pawned off as my own.
I am giving a “Jason Vargas Sucks” sign after tonight’s game serious consideration.
Durning Tuesday’s telecast the subject of Mets Villain came up. Roger Clemens became the obvious front runner with Pete Rose the clear early runner up. I would throw in Mike Scioscia, Chipper Jones, Derek Jeter and Ryne Sandberg (I don’t think Kenny Rogers is eligible.
