Tuesday
Yeah, I finally got my internet set up at home again. Yeah, I'm just really lazy. Sorry about that. I'll try and post more now. Anywho, last saturday's ND game was pretty good. Once again our defense got beat up on in the first half, but then we were able to make adjustments at half time and completely shut down navy, who has the 2nd best rush defense. It was nice to see Brady make some of the throws that he did, like the TD pass to David Grimes. McKnight had a really good game and I liked how Darius Walker ran. We're looking pretty good. Its nice to feel like we can win any game we're in.
I figured it out!
Okay, since the amazin's are out of it, and since I don't have a blog for my favorite college football team, I'm going to write about Notre Dame in this blog. Plus, other random stuff. Should be interesting. Hopefully I can get up more blogs than the past few weeks. Sorry, my hard drive crashed and I've been lazy getting my internet back on. So, I'm at work now, staying late so I can write this. Last Saturday's game was amazing. Well, at least the ending was. I just knew that once we stopped them three and out and got the ball back that we could win it. I just didn't think it could happen the way it did.
Uggghhhh
Okay, I'm not over last night. I know I never will be. I'm not able to write about it yet, I'm still waiting for the pain to subside. I'll eventually be fine, but I'll carry this scar with me forever. I'll have a write up about things later on, I just need some time so I can clear my head about everything. Since we're done, most of my columns will be on other things that are on my mind. When I hear news about my beloved Mets I'll put up something. I have some columns in my head that I've been wanting to write for a while, so I'll get those up in the next few months.
Weekend
Okay, so this weekend was a very up and down and up and down and back up weekend. Let's take game 2 for instance. Mets go up 3-0 in the first. St. Louis Scores 2. We score 1. They score 2. We score 2. They score 2. Then they finish us off with 3 more. Then, game three started and man was it horrible. Steve T just couldn't pitch. I think we got lucky that he got hit by the ball and could be out of the rest of the playoffs. And so I continued on my downward spiral. Then a ray of hope came in the form of Darren Oliver and his spectacular pitching that pretty much saved our bullpen. Then came game 4.
Game 1
So, I was at game 1 yesterday. It was absolutely amazing. I couldn't believe it. The crowd was pretty into it and it was a great game to watch. Beltran's homer was awesome. The whole place was shacking after he hit it. I don't know why Willie started Floyd yesterday? It made no sense. The cardinals should have tried to hit it to him in the beginning of the game because anything hit outside of 3 feet of him would have fallen in for a double. I was really impressed with Glavine. He hung in there even though he didn't have his best stuff after the third inning. He's now at 13 scoreless innings this postseason.
NLCS
Okay, here we go. We got passed the dodgers and now we just have the Cardinals in the way of us going to the World Series. I was pretty surprised about what Delgado did this series and what Endy Chavez did also. It made me pretty happy. He he. Lets hope that the starting pitching can do something for the rest of the post season and I think we have a pretty good chance of going pretty far this season.
Playoffs
It was nice to see the Mets pull off game one. I wasn't quite sure what to expect since El Duke and Pedro are out. Hopefully El Duke can make a come back later in the playoffs to help out cause we definitely need it! It would be nice for us to win both games at home and then have one game to win at L.A. I think sometime during the playoffs I'm going to try and do a running diary of one of the games. We'll see what happens.
Yup
Okay, so this morning I was in the shower and I was thinking about the tv shows that I watched last night. So, I decided that today I would write about my top 5 favorite tv shows now. Here you go:
1) 24. By far my favorite tv show of all time. Surprisingly it has surprassed G.I. Joe. Never thought this would happened but it has. Even last year, with a down year, 24 still had me hooked for every second of the season. I couldn't wait for each week and what was going to happen next! I can't wait to see what Keiffer has up his sleeves for seasons 6, 7, and 8. Here is the list of my favorite 24 seasons from best to worst: 3, 2, 4, 1, 5.
Uhhhhhh
So things are pretty boring right now on the Mets front. We've clinched the division already and the best record in the NL, so we'll have home field advantage until the world series. We've been playing a lot of our backups so that to get them ready and rest our starters. So, until playoffs start, I'm going to use this blog to talk about other things. If there's a topic that you want me to write on, just leave me a comment and I'll write about it. So, on Saturday I watched one of the best football games I've seen since the Giants win over the Eagles last week. He he. That was Notre Dame's come back win over Michigan State.
Pedro
Okay, so we lost last night, no big deal. The big deal, though, is Pedro is getting better. He was doing awesome through four innings before he hit a snag with the defense. He did strike out 7 in five innings. Not too shabby. Hopefully in his next start he can win and get his era under 4.00. I think he'll be at almost 100% which will be really good for our playoff chances. I think we have a great chance of going deep in the playoffs and Pedro is a necessity for that. We'll see what happens.
