Saturday Night Open Thread

It’s far too nice out to be stuck inside tonight, at least if you’re in New York. However, if you’re stuck at work or have time to kill or live in another time zone, use this as your open thread for the night. The Mets are playing the Nationals (Niese vs. Jackson), plus MLB Network will air a game as well. Who you see depends on where you live. The Giants and Jets are also playing a preseason game, which you can watch on CBS. You folks know what to do by now, so have at it.

Countdown to Spring Training
Just 1 month and 25 days 'til pitchers and catchers report!
Someone get a message to girardi. He is in love with a lineup that isn’t hitting in clutch and is not getting any runners home
He better change that lineup, seek of seeing Martin at 7. He needs to hit 9
He better?
Hey mike question for ya, do u know of any website to watch football games I’m a bucs fan and can never find a good site to watch them play on.
No idea, sorry.
I could help you, but not on this website.
The site I know is likely illegal, and I’m not putting this site at legal risk for anything like that.
From a fellow diehard Bucs fan from NJ to another, I can help you too my friend. Whats your email address? I’ll send you the link
Sucks to see a solid outing by Phelps go to waste, but there’s a difference between a bad pitcher and a good pitcher having a bad season. Jon Lester is still a very good pitcher and, even when he’s looked bad for a large chunk of the season, he’ll remind you who he is sometimes. You haven’t seen the last of him by a longshot.
That being said, I like our chances tomorrow.
I am also thinking rather not-nice thoughts about Pedro Ciriaco right now.
So the question is, does Phelps get another start on Friday, with CC going on Saturday? They can reinsert CC at any point after he comes off the DL, but he doesn’t have to pitch Friday. Perhaps one more look at Phelps, and Nova continues his recent suckitude, maybe Phelps stays. He’s pitched against the Rangers and the Red Sox his last two starts and certainly held up well. I’d like to see more.
Might not be a bad idea, that way all of the starters can get a bit of extra rest. The drawback would be that they would be a bit short in the bullpen for a couple of days, but they should be able to survive that.
I’m wondering who the demotion is going to be when CC is activated. Seems like Joba would be the most logical choice.
Hey mike question for your, I’ve been looking for a good site to watch my Tampa bay bucs play can never find a good one, any ideas??
I hope the moods is better on here than on the Jets forum. “We suck! We suck!” “Everybody is awful”
My god, it makes me want to kill myself. That’s why I look for positivity here.
Hello, Greg. We are speaking ill of the Yankees.
The Yankees are better than the Jets though, for what it’s worth.
I think the Yankees might field a better football team than the Jets.
Very funny, actually. Made me laugh so I thank you.
Didn’t get too much of a chance to watch today, but a home loss to the Red Sox?
Color me shocked.
we’ve lost 3 of 5 to them so far at home
And 13 of the last 18.
Mike,
when was that fly over (in the above photo)?
I’ve seen flyovers during the playoffs, but never 7 jets — it’s usually just 2.
I believe it was today.
Here’s another from today.

That’s from today.
Delmon Young should kill himself.
Fuck Rick Porcello hard
The way it used to be…
Yankees fan = Giants Fan
Mets fan = Jets Fan
Go Giants!!!
Anyone who roots for the jets has made a grievous error.
The entire franchise exists because of one horribly played game.
Johnny Peralta doing some great work
How come andruw jones is still onthis team when he isalmost down to 199?
Because Ronnie Wood hasn’t shown up to replace him yet.
ietc
Wow, CJ Wilson just turned an 8-0 lead into an 8-7 lead. Like last night, it would be nice if the Rays would lose, but if they’re going to win, at least they’re beating up the Angels and their vaunted pitching.
