En annen legendarisk joke i onsdagens episode ("They Saved Lisa's Brain")


Lisa reading the shirt: "C:/DOS C:/DOS/RUN RUN/DOS/RUN".
[laughs] Oh, only one person in a million would find that funny.

Stem Mets

I onsdagens episode av The Simpsons på TV3 ble Lisa tatt opp i den lokale Mensa-kloubben. Under punktet "Any new palindromes" dukket "Rise to vote sir". Den eminiente oversettelsen ble "Stem Mets"! Gotta love it.

It's getting Closer

Spillerne har nå kommet til Florida og begynt treningen mot første Spring Training-kamp som er om 13 dager.

Før the big action starts, hva med litt helgelektyre?

Thoughts About Big Mike

I still don't understand why the Mets let Mike Piazza just walk. He was the backbone of the team for a long time. And while he has slowed down, his numbers still were good enough to share duties behind the plate. It seems like the Mets have no loyalty. Am I missing something?

Loyalty isn't the issue. The club spent $93 million for seven seasons of Mike Piazza, and the return was five. Nobody complained. If anything, the Mets were mostly pleased with what Piazza provided. But the time had come to move on. While he was still as productive as any catcher in the big leagues last season, Piazza no longer was the offensive force he had been, no longer the force that made the tradeoff -- exceptional hitting for compromised defense -- acceptable. The Mets were content to live with that tradeoff from May 23, 1998, his first day in uniform, until May 17, 2003, the day he tore his groin muscle. Unfortunately, Piazza's offense faded dramatically after his return from that injury in 2003.
