Excuse me for posting on the off day, but I had to share this with you. You see, after the Braves walk-off loss to the Marlins in which Larry Jones lost a high chopper in the lights with two outs in the ninth to start the Marlins rally, he had this to say:
“You felt like tonight was going to be our night to win one maybe we should have lost. One strike away and you lose a ground ball in the lights. That makes you think that the baseball gods have been on our side for 154 games, and now they’re turning their back on us.”
I believe the term I’m looking for starts with an L, ends with an L, and has a big O in the middle. Turning their back on you? On you??? Seriously? Have you seen what these baseball gods have done to the Mets since Endy Chavez’s catch? Silly me, of course you’ve seen it. You’ve caused a good part of it. And you’re going to complain about one lousy ground ball in the lights? Boo hoo, Larry. Yes, the baseball gods have turned their back on you … so they could get a better angle to pee on the Mets … as they’ve been doing for the last five years. That’s right Larry, five years of urine raining down, most of which came in the form of your Hall of Fame career, and you’re going to complain about the baseball gods for one damn ground ball. Yeah, life’s tough. Maybe it’ll get tougher if the Mets decide to fold up the tent this week, eh?
Come, let’s all comiserate with some sad violin music for Larry.

Better get your Mets gear on, Larry.
