Yeah, fuck the Mets.
Well done, sir.  One suggestion on your browser history extension though ... make it a bit more general so we can scrub the cubs (for instance) as well.

Great preview, Craig. I love the Pence bobblehead.
I'm in love with rock and roll and I'll be out all night.

The Pence bobblehead is genius. But you need to make sure that the ball bounces off his noggin once.
I remember all the good times me 'n Miller enjoyed
Up and down the M1 in some luminous yo-yo toy
But the future has to change - and to change I've got to destroy
Oh look out Lennon here I come - land ahoy-hoy-hoy

Oh yeah, you're right, it has to bounce off his dome. It should be a bobblehead where the figure is all laid out in a collapsing dive (you know how Hunter does it), and then the ball could bounce off his gloved left hand, off his coconut, off his right hand, off his right arm, off his right foot, to his left foot, off his ass, and finally off his glove again before it rolls slowly to the wall.

Man they should put you and me in charge of this shit.

Full of vile hatred for an unworthy club. Love it. One nit: Inglett will be toiling against the thin pitching of the PCL this week.

Thanks, I knew Inglett had been up and down but thought he was still up with the Astros.

Somebody mentioned applying for a job in the new Astros administration. Why wait? The Mets are hiring now!

It's awesome that the Mets got in at the top level of a Ponzi scheme but still managed to fuck it up.
