So you agree with me!

Would rather spend a few bucks on Little Ceasers if I had to choose between the two.

I agree with you. This Giants-Mets alliance will remain strong.

Ugh, Little Caesar's... Do not want.

CPK has heretical notions of what is appropriate with crust and sauce (or the lack thereof, ugh) and should never be mentioned in polite conversation about pizza.

The one I went to had a pie that was kale, chicken, and onion with cheese, very little sauce, and all on flatbread.

Never was I more disappointed after having one slice of that pie.

 

[richiek]

Speaking of food...

Kansas City mayor bets Toronto mayor ribs, barbecue sauce over ALCS

KC is known for its BBQ, what food is Toronto known for?

Hopefully we'll get a pizza bet between the NYC and Chicago mayors.

 

[TangoAlphaLima]

Timbits.

 

[sf2fanatic]

California Pizza Kitchen came up from SoCal, your argument is invalid.

That's a POS place too. Rather eat Shakey's than that

 

[XiaNaphryz]

I agree with you. This Giants-Mets alliance will remain strong.

For the remainder of this postseason at least, yes!

*vein pops up in forehead*

Tavern-style is the standard in Chicago, deep dish is a (delicious) little sideshow.

Oh so that's what you now call that doughy mess?

Tavern style aka the civilized way of eating pizza.

That said, I really have a taste for some Pequod's right about now ...

Oh so that's what you now call that doughy mess?

Bartolo?

 

[DoktorEvil]

What? There's barely any dough involved. It basically looks like that St. Louis pizza posted above. Cracker thin.

Jokes. Just jokes.

A nice flatbread pie is fine, but there's few places that do flatbread well in NY

 

[Dmncnby2k9]

Queens. We have good pizza out here too.



LOL that looks like something I'd order from Domino's though.

I'm in queens too bro. Reminds of the pizza from a spot I hit up here in Richmond Hill.

 

[CosmicQueso]

You and your battle over deep dish. Imo's thin crust in St. Louis is where its at:

Need a name of that joint for the next time I'm in town.

 

[Windu]

Yeah NY takes the pizza crown. No contest.

 

[BFIB]

Here you go. I always go for Canadian Bacon and Italian Sausage:

[Rock And Roll]

I want Lou Malnati's. Cubs world series win would give me the perfect reason to head down to Chicago for a few days.

 

[BFIB]

So Doyers GAF, whats the word on the local radio regarding Mattingly?

I think he's gone.

 

[jman2050]

Pizza is hard to screw up and chances are there's at least one local joint that does it well where you live.

That said NY style is the best and always will be.

 

[Choomp]

I kinda want to think about how Syndergaard would handle a closer/late innings role after his outing last night

 

[specdot]

He'd just throw fastballs. Let's not crown him as the next John Smoltz please. I like him in the rotation. Plus Familia has some nasty stuff.
Next year will be interesting though. Will we keep Bartolo in the roster in case Wheeler gets hurt again?
Are we gonna sign Cespedes? Will Murphy stay here?? (He better).
Oh, and yeah NY has the best pizza around hands down. From Brooklyn to Long Island and all the way up to the Bronx. It's no contest.

 

[Eleuin]

Shitty Burgers

Great idea! Take an extremely valuable starter and cripple his value by severely limiting his innings!

I'm still pissed to this day that the Reds turned Chapman into a full-time reliever for literally no reason at all.

[zychi]

ANY place that makes thin and crispy crust like that is in my good graces.



Aurelio's doesn't do it very well. It's a little too thick and the sauce is weirdly salty and sweet IMO. Few of the regional chains do. Nick and Vito's is the only place with multiple locations in the suburbs that I think gets that thin tavern style right. Otherwise, unsurprisingly, you need to go to your local bar to get it.

Auerilos is def an acquired taste. The saltiness usually turns people away.

Nick and vitos is okay, like you said most bars have their own style of thin crust thats pretty good. I was just trying to compare the stl style to a chicago brand thats easy to find on google

 

[Rock And Roll]

Umpiring crews have been released

Ugh. Bill Miller.

 

[Carpe Libertatem]

Need a name of that joint for the next time I'm in town.

Get some toasted ravioli too - can get it at Imo's with the pizza too

Imo's and toasted ravs are two of the things I miss most about St. Louis

 

[lazybones18]

guess I'm having pizza tonight

 

[DoktorEvil]

I'm in queens too bro. Reminds of the pizza from a spot I hit up here in Richmond Hill.

Spot is in Flushing, called Lucia's.

I take a bus and a train exclusively just to have a slice there. It's that good.

But I'm the guy that like a sweeter sauce so YMMV.

No CB Bucknor, Angel Hernandez, Balkin' Bob Davidson or Cowboy Joe West. Thank god.

Gotta save the big guns for the World Series of course.

Lucia's is amazing. Love that joint.

Huh, it's in Downtown Flushing, one stop from Citi Field. I've walked past that place all the time too!

I'm gonna have to check it out.

 

[JDeluis]

So Doyers GAF, whats the word on the local radio regarding Mattingly?

I think he's gone.

I think everybody knows that he is gone. It's just a matter of time before it's officially announced.

It's going to hurt when he gets the job in Miami and goes further than he did with the Dodgers

 

[clemenx]

Yep. It pisses me off so much that they didn't even try. =/

 

[DoktorEvil]

Grab a beer nearby at the drugstore, eat a slice, and just chill right before going to the park.

 

[diffusionx]

Chicago-style pizza is not pizza.

I'm sure lots of people make good pizza in Chicago though.

Go Mets!

 

[Line_HTX]

I forgot that a place called Blaze Pizza opened up near my house.

Guess I'll get some of that make my own pizza and have it fired up tonight.

This pizza is good stuff, I gotta say.

Go Mets! Stop Back to the Future from becoming real!!

 

[Malo]

Hmm I'm thinking of going to one of the Mets NLCS games. Anyone from mets gaf going to a game?

 

[J2 Cool]

You and your battle over deep dish. Imo's thin crust in St. Louis is where its at:

Reminds me of Chicago thin crust I grew up on. I didn't start eating deep dish until early 20s, and it's always been an alternative, which is the case for most people who I grew up with.

 

[Beckx]

Go Mets! Stop Back to the Future from becoming real!!

Only Matt Harvey and Scott Boras stand between america and the return of fax machines.

 

[zroid]

Cecil believes he will be good to go in time for the WS if we make it that far. Would be the third miraculously fast recovery from injury for Toronto this season.

Stroman, Tulo?, Cecil?

The turned him into a closer because he couldn't maintain his velo as a starter.

 

[Corran Horn]

Typical Giant fan to bring that POS up.

No local pizza places where I live in the suburbs :/
Only chain franchise pizza places, sucks.

Where is Jays/Royals GAF? I'm surprised its *EDIT* mostly been pizza talk this last page with their series starting in a few hours.

Pizza talk is more important than baseball (when the Mets are not playing).

Canadian smack talk is totes adorbs.

The Maple Leafs play tonight. Expect Jays GAF to finally check in around 9:00 p.m. CST.

That bat flip was embarrassing. Rob Ford would have done better.

While we talk pizza, Jays GAF is stuffing their face with maple syrup, and Royals GAF is stuffing their face with BBQ.

 

[Line_HTX]

It's just some contest over which pizza is better, Chicago or New York, is all.
