sure, but I was just responding to the off seen comment “it is just a game”. While they may technically be playing a sport (not a game), it is professional.

Come to wish condolence to a great ball player, and see the moron met fans can’t even do that right. Well, don’t worry jerk Bayonne, next year Jose will be on a team whose owner and fans appreciate and love him and will fully support him if he has a family loss. And by the way idiot, people suffer losses, its not a met thing. but like the majority of met posters here, you are too nasty and filled with hate to know that, or anything I suppose.

What is unbelievable is your sensitivity. The man’s grandmother died, and you have to get carried away with “franchise is cursed”

Those people are still just human beings. When an executive in a high profile company has a death in the family, they are granted time to mourn, this should be no different.

little league is just a game, or playing a pickup game down at the park.

MLB is a huge money corporate business, and the players are paid huge money to produce.

A lot of people forget that it’s a game…

Heh. You’re probably right about August. But seriously, I have a vague recollection of a story that ran in 2006 how Reyes was real close to his grandmother. Family is more important and I hope he realizes and understands that he has a bigger responsibility to his family than he does to baseball.

Sorry for Jose’s Loss, I’m With X, take whatever time you need…
Besides it will give us an idea of what the team will probably look like in August! LOL

Reyes already decided he’s missing the entire Pirates series, but I hope he’s not shorting himself. He has a full week. He should be there for his family. Baseball is just a game. Whatever decision he makes, I hope it’s in the best interest of his family with no regard to baseball.

Death of a loved one is never at the right time or place but part of life so we try and support those who are hurting.
I could be selfish and say why now but I believe we can beat Pirates 3 out of 4 w/o Jose and then have him back for Bravos this weekend.

Nothing but bad luck associated with this franchise

I think us Mets fans should be on bereavement. It’s like the franchise is cursed, we need an exorcist not an owner or investor.

It’s unbelievable.
