FROM THE METS’ DEPARTMENT OF HUMOR AND DOUBLE ENTENDRE.
If you have a cool five C note to spare, you may wish to attend this shindig.
How about some alternative activities, like:
“Clown Clinic with Pedro Martinez”?
“Fitness After 50 with Julio Franco”?
“An authentic Japanese tea ceremony with Rick Peterson”?
Leave your suggestions in the comments.
As someone who lived in Stamford, CT, for many years, it makes me laugh uproariously to see all the Mets who live in Greenwich now. I especially adore that the various sides of the tracks that were once only the territory of the WASP are no longer so. (If you’ve ever seen “Gentleman’s Agreement,” I can assure you it was still alive and well in the Fairfield County of my youth.)

I have no words…
Actually I do…
A “pitching clinic” with Just Forfeit Schoeneweis?!?!
I think I’d rather attend one given by Kevin Brown. At least you know you’d have some entertainment value there.
Frowny Existentialism with Aaron Heilman
Tips on How To Make It In The Big City with Joe Smith
Manners and Social Decorum with Lastings Milledge
Ha, Will, that last one gave me a good chuckle.
How about Chaw Spittin’ Target Practice with John Maine and Billy Wagner?
Or, of course, Immortality Cooking Class with Julio Franco
“Hitting home runs with men on base” by David Wright.
I’m only in town for a day or so next week (and am crushed you won’t be there for the A’s on the 23rd), so this seminar shouldn’t take too long.
Ray, I’m bummed! But Ian Hunter is playing that night and it’s been years. At least he’s a Mets fan!
Funny, when I think of “Scott Schoeneweis” and “pitching clinic,” never for a second does it cross my mind that he might be the one GIVING the clinic. I’m sure some rich person out there is just dying to learn how to walk the batter you were brought in to face and give up soul-crushing home runs.
I’m not even going to comment on “Delgado” and “hitting clinic.”
I can’t believe none of you have made any kind of inappropriate comment about David Wright and “pick a position.”
Some of you have let me down greatly.
david,
as far as positioning, all you have to do is stand there. i’ll do the rest.
xo
-w
(is that better?)
Jessica--I couldn’t believe it either! After reading through I was going to make a comment about it..because obviously who wouldn’t pick many positions to play with David…
double entendre(s?) are (is?) fun!
“Batting Tips” from Rick Down.
“What I Learned from Joe Torre” from Willie Randolph.
I just want to see this team win. Again.
That writing in the David Wright section was the first thing people commented to me about.
IDK ... what do they mean really? LOL
I would choose:
What Not to Wear with Jerry Manuels
Anger Management with Paul LoDuca
Will, thanks for not letting me down.
What’s wrong with Jerry’s clothes? I think it’s Pedro we have to have that lesson with :)
A Day at the Racetrack with Paul Lo Duca
How To Make Your Own Herbal Remedy with Moises Alou
PFP with Jorge Sosa
Bunting Lessons from Jose Valentin (not related to any recent event, but I just have to cover my eyes and scream whenever he’s sent up to bunt because he just can’t do it)
Girl, his orange tie in Miami and his almost orange jacket was a sight. Leave the orange in the field LOL Then he had this Cuban hat… he was ready for some Caribbean Something… cuz I sure didn’t know what.
At least Pedro wears his headband with the uniform and in a way it matches LOL
I have no words…
