Baby, Baby, Baby, You’re Out Of Time

What did I say was going to happen before Opening Day? <scratches head>

Oh yeah, this…

You’re obsolete my baby, my poor discarded baby, I say baby, baby, baby you’re outta time….

The Wilpon’s have always loved slogans…

The Team, The Time… Your Season Has Come…

We need one for the 2012 Mets… What’cha got?

  • dream come true if they sell in 12 and take the useless hot air saber-goons with them. it would almost feel as good as winning it all.

    • A new owner will put in his own people as his first order of business.

      • without ? they will, the only person to say otherwise is jeseep, the proof is in the archives, once again proving how much of…. o forget it Merry Christmas!

      • I hope that means Warthen is gone too, but I would hate to lose Collins.

        • If it takes lsoing collins to finally get rid of Warthen, then it is a worthwhile trade.

      • Perhaps, but I don’t think this team needs 3 FOs in 4 years. You need some stability and someone to handle the transition.

        Besides, aren’t you telling us how Alderson and Co are here to get the Mets in ship shape by order of the Commissioner so Alderson can take the job and leave D3PO as his successor after the sale?

        • So glaee the days of donal and lord sandy are over. This team needs a new gm and needs to rid the puppets hired to spew the lord sandy lies. bye bye donal.. Your days are numbered.

  • SELL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! GOD PLEASE GET THIS CROOKS AND GOONS OUT OF HERE!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • I want them out, but I’d like to see what this front office could do with an actual budget and some money to spend.

    • Whydo you want to see what they can do. All these ex gms helping the lord, and not one of them mentioned for any gm vacancy. Proof enough of their ineptness.

    • there u go the geniusalderson collaborator has spoken.i promise when geniusalderson is laughed out the door i will call him. i will send him candy tooooooo.lol

      • hey Joe D – are these the type of instigating responses that you want removed, or are these ok now?

        • still looking to remove opinions that disagree with u. that’s ok. but when u either curse or make fun of people baking cookies …or calling people racists …or liars…everything is cool.of course, if u say it all is good. i tell u what check the posts where u used vile language or insulted people and get back to me.then tell me when i ever CURSED on on this site? no, K NEVER INSTIGATES…NEVER?

          • What are you babbling about? You didn’t post an opinion! Come back with a lucid thought next time.

            • k, i wish u happy hodidays…may your new year be the best u have ever had. your insults are well thought as usual. u have a way with words.i started to recheck these spaces to read your posts and gain more knowledge on my metsies.i will try to develop a lucid thought 4 u. when i do i will post it and GIVE it to u as a holiday offering.BEST WISHES TO DES,BAYONNE, ALEX, NORTH JERSEY,JOE D,METS 62,TAGEE and the rest of the fans on this site.lastly k, i would send u candy if i knew your abode. i , unlike geniusalderson, don’t forget an old buddy(REYES).

              • Merry Christmas, baby al. I wish you, I and Kay could share a bottle of vino and just talk baseball, not personalities. It’s boring.

            • Merry Christmas, Kay.

  • SLOGAN : USE YOUR ‘CENTS’ COME TO THE NEW CITIFIELD. THE FUTURE IS COMING…VERY SOON…

  • I’d say this is more than a ‘sense’.
    Either way, 2012 won’t be fun.

    • more fun than the off season.

      Just watch the games and ignore the side show. And the record. Assuming you go in with low expectations, it might just be an enjoyable group to watch.

  • I hope they can’t find investos that will only get a parking space for their 20 million. TIME TO SELL.

  • The Yanks should make an offer to the Wipons they can’t refuse. We could be called “Yankees Lite” (like in lite beer). We could be their dumping ground and rehab team for the big club. When the Stadium is packed we can all go to Citi Field and watch on the big screen. We could trade players back and forth, they get the cream and we get well you know, we’ll get the , well like players we have now. Our initials would be NYL , no not for NY Lousy but NY Lite. Our team logo would be a dim bulb made to look like a baseball and the NYL in the middle. Our motto would be “Lite Baseball -It’s Still Baseball.” Our team song would be “You Lite Up My Life.”

    • Like the old KC A’s.

      • Or the Astros, until the Phils cleaned them out, and rehired Ed Wade.

  • (sung to the meet the Mets song) Bring the kiddies, bring the wife, guarenteed to put you right to sleep…Because the Mets are are really dropping the ball, never hitting homers over the great wall. East side West side, everybody come on down…to meet the M.E.T.S. Mets draw some walks. PLEASE SELL THIS TEAM TO SOMEONE WHO CARES WILPONZI! Taking the black color off of the uniform does not make your off season complete.

    • I like the “never hitting homers over the great wall.” Nice job there but the :put you right to sleep” part doesn’t fit right to me. Maybe a different play with words would of been better.

      Overall not bad though.

  • “Meaningful Baseball in March!”

  • “We Already Forfeited the Season”

  • “Beat The Mets”

  • This is what i mean, again the mets sign another player who is what, can’t hit, can’t produce. So when you need a situation for a pitch hitter late in the game, really like he’s gonna. Man the mets really sinking low these days. Thanks once again to the wilpons who really give a Damm about this team. With a New ballpark at the costs of it, this is how we put the fans in the stands. Tell me anyone why the wilpons won’t sell. So keep us in the bottom again for along time under the wilpons banner. They don’t give us fans banner day or old timers day, what happen to baseball tradtion. PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE, wilpons sell our team to save us some dignity

    • Gee you would think since the Mets need starting pitching signing a starter like Jason Marquis for 3 million would be better than signing Rauch for 3.5 mil. And then if you signed him than maybe you can package one of the other starters with a prospect for another deal. But that’s of course if you want to win in New York – then you do those things.

      And if Sandy is such a stickler for the minors like his minions here say he is you would think he should go that route and use the money saved to retain the minor league team they just lost.

      But do not DARE question Sandy. He is the Lord Our Saviour, Thou Shalt Not Want.

  • 20 Minutes in Pink Champagne Room with Mr. Met for $20

  • 2012 Slogan: New Year, New Team, Same Crappy Owner. Your 2012 NY Mets

    • Wll it’s about time some one feels like i do. Why don’t the mets People look at what the fans what, but than again they just don’t care about the fans, SO WILPONS SELL, SELL, GIVE US A OWNER WHO WILL CARE< CUS THE LAST FEW PLAYERS THEY HAVE SIGN FOR IS WELL REALLY REALLY BAD

    • LoL, not bad let me try one.

      2012 Slogan: “Come out and support us we really need the money! We’re not kidding!”
      This advertisement is brought to you by the “Save Mr Met” fund.

      :-)

  • The 2012 New York Mets: Over leveraged, broke and hemorrhaging money, just like the rest of the country

    • The 2012 New York Mets: “If you liked the movie Major League, you’ll love us except we won’t win games to see our owner have a piece of his clothing removed.” :-P

    • Ah, donal, no matter how bleak, you manage to twist the truth about the crooked pownership. Well, at least you were finally a little creative in your hapless defense. The walls are crumbling donal.. you are becoming a crowd of single digits.

  • U know perfectly well we dont have 394 million dollars in cash…we demand an investigation…a wilpon has been sitting on this board since 1980! We founded Sterling Mets…it ‘s our. You can’t sell our team…Where the hell is Madoff…Idiot, I told you we shouldn’t have committed everything…Ahhh Madoff….wonder whatever happened to that guy??? Shame on you Bud Selig, shame on you Wilpon and Katz, shame on you Bank of America, and shame on MLB’s other owners for extending any loan deadlines. Buffoons, Shisters and Tyrants…to hold a franchise and it’s fans hostage what an outrage….
