Jose Reyes and Keith Hernandez had to be separated on the Mets’ charter plane Sunday night after a tense confrontation over Hernandez’s critical comments about the All-Star shortstop.

Wha, wha, what?

First off, I’m sure Bart Hubbuch is blowing this way out of proportion. I would guess Jose Bristled at something Keith said. I doubt how the shortstop feels about an announcer is relevant to team play, even if it is Keith.

Regardless, is Jose batshit crazy? I mean like Milton Bradley or Carl Everett crazy. Seriously, something is wrong with Jose. Every player goes through a funk, but this one’s spanned two seasons already. How is it possible to regress like this?

Send David to the Mid Summer Classic

Ok, I’ve said time and again I could care less about the All Star Game this year. The Mets aren’t really earning my support in the balloting. However, I have chosen to suspend my apathy for the “final vote” to send David Wright to the All Star Game. He is narrowly trailing Corey Hart who doesn’t deserve a nomination due to his stupid name. I know many of you are supremely disappointed with the Mets of 2008 and last year’s collapse, but it isn’t really David’s fault. You know you’ll miss him if he isn’t there.

More Good News

With the Mets finally on a roll, despite Wag’s best efforts, if the Mets can take this last game, the Mets might be on a role for the first time in a long time. So of course, another injury had to pop up. According to Adam Rubin, Ryan Church is not on the DL but rather in New York being examined.

The Big Show

Dan Patrick and Keith Olbermann are uniting again to host Football Night in America which will probably suck. Honestly, I used to love those two on Sportscenter, I think it even inspired an Aaron Sorkin TV show, but I’ve tried listening to Patrick’s radio show and it’s as boring as Sporting News Radio. Olbermann’s douchiness factor is through the roof and they are going to be on the same show with Bob Costas so there’s like a .0000000001% chance this will be tolerable. I think I’ve had the TV on during “Football Night in America” last season and I remember being confused as to what the hell was going on. I couldn’t figure out if it was a highlight show or some kind of pregame show. Then I changed the channel to the Simpsons. Olbermann and Patrick should have never left the “Big Show” in the first place. If they hadn’t, Stuart Scott might be selling used cars today. In an unrelated note, Kilborn should have never left the Daily Show.

With the Mets on a mini-roll, a win tonight might do something to energize the fan base. The way this season’s been going the Mets will lose 13-1 or something ridiculous. I think every Mets fan has come to terms with the fact that the Mets aren’t the team to beat. Climbing to 2.5 games back might stir the ashes of this so far failed season. Hand Pedro the ball. Give me a reason to be excited again.
