Mets 7, Rockies 3... and Omar Minaya is a f***&^% idiot

That win last night was simply the most fun I've had watching a Mets game since sometime in May.  And it feels like longer than that.  It feels like I haven't seen a game like that since '06.  I mean last night was basically the '06 formula: decent, keep-you-in-the-game staring pitching; clutch offense; shutdown bullpen; come from behind win.  The Mets mastered that formula in 2006.  

That's 3 wins in a row now.  But so what?  They are still 4 under .500, and while they are not completely out of the WC hunt, they are not exactly right in the mix either.  Still, the Mets last night at the very least gave me reason to smile - they gave me reason to be happy about them and about baseball, if only for one freggin' game.  One day at a time.  

............................................................................


Omar, Omar, Omar...  Forget about the fact that you are a scumbag for a second.  We'll get to that.  Let's start with what a completely horrible public speaker you are: 

“Adam, for the past couple of years, has lobby [sic] for a player development position. He has lobby [sic] myself, he has lobby [sic] Tony…”

“All I’m saying was [sic]… that I know that when you wrote the reports, that I am saying, that in the past, you have lobby [sic]… you have lobby [sic], for a player, for a job…”


Listening to you abuse the english language, Omar, makes me want to gouge my eyes out and shove them deep into my ears.  


Now, on you being a scumbag...  It's pretty clear that you have much love and affection for your good friend Mr. Bernazard and that you are very angry about having to fire him.  And this is why you chose to lash out at Adam Rubin in the despicable way that you did, only adding more wood to a fire that you were supposed to be putting out yesterday.  That's a real piece of shit thing to do, Omar, and also a very stupid and imprudent thing to do.  


But here is what really puzzles me.  You stand by your claim that Adam was lobbying for a job with the Mets; that he wasn't just asking people for "career advice", that he was actually trying to get a specific position with the Mets organization.  And of course you strongly implied that this had something to do with his negative (but wholly true and accurate) reporting on Tony Bernazard.  Yet yesterday when you scheduled YET ANOTHER press conference to issue a quasi-apology for your despicable behavior, Jeff Wilpon who stood by your side confirmed Adam's account of the story, not yours. Jeff Wilpon confirmed what Adam said - that he was seeking career advice, NOT a specific job with the Mets.  Yet you still stand by your claim that Adam was lobbying for a job with the Mets.  So you're not even on the same page as your boss here.  You are in a world of shit, now, aren't you?  


I'm so tired of this stupid circus.  But hey, all I really care about are the Ws.  Let's keep them coming.  


Let's Go Mets!
