    Piazza was the main man for the Mets, and he probably will go in for the Mets. I'm just saying he was never fully embraced as that guy in the media like he was in LA (granted I was very young then, so maybe its just bad memory.)

    i think that's because the new york media doesn't really embrace anyone who's not dead.

    In 50 years, when A-rod dies, he will be beloved by the media, and they'll pretend like they always supported him.

    I think those three are a little extreme...

    Nobody's going to call Joba bad after ONE situation. If he does it a couple times people will get mad, but not after ONE.

    I hope he blows two consecutive saves so he can go from NEXT to Kyle Farnsworth in the newspaper.

    I wouldn't wish Kyle Farnsworth status on anyone except Roger Clemens. And that's only because he's a complete ass
