WEST COAST.
I fully intended to watch the game last night, but apparently it was my turn to get the migraine. This had me saying, “Maybe I’ll just get in bed and listen to Howie and Tom,” at 10:15pm, which ended up being me falling asleep not long after that.
I’m kind of glad I missed it.
This particular West Coast swing is going to be tough for me to keep up with, and frankly I wonder if that’s not for the best right now. If we’re going to lose, let me at least not lose sleep in order to watch it.
So I probably won’t write too much about the games; I have a lot of other pieces stacked up that I’ve been saving for a less busy time, or for when game-specific posts aren’t dominating the site.
And I’ll believe Moises Alou is back when I see him on the field with the Mets.

We were supposed to head to the West Coast for these games - one game in San Diego, a few games in LA, one Sonic Youth show - but it didn’t happen, mostly because there was just not enough time to do everything we would want to do. That includes renting a convertible so we could drive to Vegas. TBF is particularly interested in the sports book - not that we’re particularly interested in baseball betting, but it would be a fun way to spend an afternoon, drinking on the casino’s dime.


I’m with you on Alou. I’ll believe it when I see it. I watched last night’s game and really wish I could have gotten those 2 1/2 hours back. When the Mets play like that it’s hard to watch sometimes.
