Good Old Days at Shea 30 Dec 2011 | 07:52 am
In a random act of procrastination I came across a few old Mets Weekly videos from back when the Mets called Shea Stadium home. I love Citi Field, I really do, but for a fan like me, pushing 30 now, I...
Someday 10 Dec 2011 | 11:03 am
Wow... long time, right? It's weird to be back on the blog but figured the loss of Jose Reyes deserved a mention. As longtime (i.e., former) readers are aware, my blog handle, A Friend of Mr. Glass',...
Good News (Rapture Edition) 22 May 2011 | 12:59 am
OK, more than a month without a post? It's been a pathetic run for the Glass Man. No excuse, just bad blogging on my part. As we all know, today is Judgment Day (beautiful day for it!). If there was ...
Al Trautwig Sounds Broken By Life 18 Apr 2011 | 02:23 pm
And I don't blame him. That was an awful, awful loss for the Knicks in Game 1. Mike D'Antoni sounds pissed. I don't blame him either. Again, truly awful loss. It's the same story we saw all season l...
Abandon All Hope 14 Apr 2011 | 02:44 pm
Another day, another Mets loss. Granted, the Rockies are a good team and the Mets are not. What's disorienting though is that if it's possible I think I might have forgotten what it's like to root fo...
New Sunday Night Baseball Crew Kind of Terrible? 5 Apr 2011 | 12:37 pm
I wonder if Mets fans realize how spoiled we are to listen to Gary, Keith and Ron (LOVE the new 'do!) on a nightly basis. Many (most?) of the announcing crews out there just aren't any good. Think of ...
Baseball Like it Oughta Be 4 Apr 2011 | 04:28 am
So fair enough, I'm pretty down on the Mets this year. I don't think they have much of a chance to compete against markedly better teams in Philadelphia and Atlanta (and you could probably throw Flori...
The Greatest Night of My Life? 3 Apr 2011 | 04:56 am
To answer the question posed in the last night wasn't quite the greatest night of my life, but it really had a lot going for it. Ordinarily last night would have been all about the Mets. Opening Day ...
Geico Gone Wrong 13 Mar 2011 | 05:38 am
Like many others, the Glass Man's been a big fan of Geico's various commercial campaigns over the years. It all began with the cavemen and the fabled "I'll have the roast duck with the mango salsa" c...
The Gary Cohen Show 9 Mar 2011 | 03:51 am
Leafing through Metsblog last night I saw a post about a proposed television show for SNY, courtesy of Mets Police, called "How I Met the Mets." It's an interesting concept, actually, one that you co...
