I have somewhat of a different take on this entire fiasco. Minaya said 2 or 3x in the press conference that they expited or used some wording that they quickly pushed along the investigation of the allegations of Tony B, which would have been after Adam Rubin's stories came out. My thought is that Adam gets the info, prints the story, the Mets organ had no choice but to investigate as the story was out there already. Minaya was stumbling during that press conference until it came to the part about Adam Rubin and him lobbying to be a part of the organization. He was pretty crystal clear on that part with vengence. So, my take is that Adam prints story, Minaya was hoping that the allegations would have been brushed under the rug and kept internal but when they were leaked out, he had to act (which pretty obvious he did not want to fire Tony B and then he got his revenge. Just my thoughts as why ever would you single out a reporter for printing a story? Sorry Minaya, this could not be brushed under the rug.

Thanks for the info. I think that many probably misunderstood that their profile would be affected in searching.

Thanks!

Kerel - site looks great. Fantastic use of space and also great layout to allow the sufficient white space. Very nicely done.

PS to coment on the brown bag - at least we are still at that level and not hefty bags to cover more!

Injuries and illnesses are really going to take a toll on us. Maybe it is a sign that we will be healthy in the later part of the season and go all the way. Thanks for the update Vazz

My goodness, 39 years old and her 14 year old was the one to find her. Thoughts and prayers to the Schoeneweis family during this very difficult time. Kinda makes losing a game not matter so much.

Let's look at the 11 LOB. if 1 or 2 of them came home before the 9th we would have or could have won this game. The errors - they happen from time to time with players playing out of position. However a problem that has plagued the mets is the LOB. Just so many so often. Solve this problem and we will see less close games. Funny I predicted to@darknova that redding would give up 4 hits; guess I was close but so WRONG!

Missing the bag- inexcusable. In our jobs we are expected to peform to a certain level and missing a base is below that level. He will beat himself up over it more than we will

We only allowed the dodgers, team with best record in bb to score 3 runs on 5 hits and took it to the 11th. That is something positive as I am sure no-one gave us a chance, not even most mets fans.

Disappointing loss, certainly but not completely or me ever ready to stop believin in the amazin!

Hey Andrew - I tried someting to see and made a clig of http://theropolitans.com/2009/04/casey-fossum-dfa... and within 10 min it got 13 hits. So your blog hits are 13 more =-)!
Live blog for the marlins stint? I might have to break down and stop being so cheap and get the mlb on the computer for the METS games so I can be as depressed as the rest of the mets fans!

I just found out the other nite and I tried it (cli.gs)and it is pretty cool to see how many people do actually open it. I posted the story about how Venezuela is giving NJ back a little island b/t NJ and PA where the Citgo is and I got 33 hits on it. Best part is that NJ will not get it back until 2020. LOL
