Shea fans cheer for Rangers
Apparently, Milton Bradley just wanted to introduce himself to the tarpaulin. During a rain delay of nearly 90 minutes that preceded the postponement of Saturday's game between the Mets and Rangers, Bradley led a charge of six Rangers into an impromptu session of Slip 'N' Slide on the rain-slicked field cover at Shea Stadium. Saturday's game will be played as part of a doubleheader today beginning at 12:10 p.m. Bradley, Kinsler, Gerald Laird and Josh Hamilton broke out of the Rangers' dugout. They were soon joined by Josh Rupe and Michael Young. Only a little more than $100 million in guaranteed contracts. They slid about five times, eliciting a chant of "Let's go Rangers," from the fans still left at Shea. General manager Jon Daniels held his breath, and when everybody got up unhurt, he breathed a sigh of relief.

I've got nothing but love for Bradley - and hope that he somehow gets traded back to San Diego next month...

Wish I'd been able to see that impromptu slip 'n slide game. I hope they didn't put any holes in the tarp with their shoes.

The Shea faithful probably wanted to cheer the Rangers again today because the ineptitude of the Mets agaisnt one of the worst defensive teams in the game is certainly not worth making them want to cheer on their home team. Eight inning one out; bases loaded; base hit to left center, one run scores, chance to score two and make it a tw orun game; third abse coach, ( Alomar I belive) holds the runner. WHY?! the worst that could happen would proabbly be men on second and third with tw oout and with the MEts having another chance to drie in two more runs. Next: short fly ball to the right fielder. The third base coach has the runner tag and go. need i say any more? okay I will: runner is easily tagged out at home. Agin W*T*F*?
WIllie the best thing that could happen to you is to get fired if you ask me.

That's strong, Kaycee. If it isn't their motto, it should be.

Mets fans haven't had much to cheer about lately. Let them cheer for Texas, or anyone else for that matter.
