I remember you were in the world series thread spewing the same hot bullshit.
Trailing every game but one in the 8th inning in no universe constitutes "dominating". Be happy your extremely opportunistic team took home the title, they earnes it, but there's no reason for this baiting nonsense.
That Mets blogs undoubtedly has bias, but you're equally as biased in the other direction.
As for this "macho man culture", some aspects of it are unavoidable in professorial sports. Where it CERTAINLY has no place is among officials. MLB umpires have a problem in this area that needs to be addressed. Love Syndergaard or hate him, that umpire was out of line.
As for the mention of the same thing happening in another game yestersay, what was the background? Was the pitcher immediately tossed from the game without even hitting the batter, with no prior warning issued? I doubt it.
It's unlikely the intent was even to hit Utley. He threw well behind him. Likely to rattle his cage and give him the middle finger without putting him on base. Obviously Utley had the last laugh, with a HUGE assist the ump.

Dominated? lol. The Mets were winning every game late that they lost. The Mets tripped over themselves.

Our closer forgetting how to pitch (something that's carried over into this season BTW) and our awful infield defense in the 9th lost us the WS.
And whatever. It happened, we're TWO MONTHS into the next season now that shit is long done and forgotten.

The Clay Butthole bullpen experience seems to be off to a smashing start.

We survived 1 IP of the Great Buchholz Experiment friends!
bases loaded one out. come on white sox stop this and win for once.
don't let KC have 3 straight come from behind wins against you :/
I know you won't.. and I really don't have hopes... but still...
nope they will do the thing I hate the most... walk in a run.
I would have much rather seen a grand slam :/
edit: wtf... I thought duke was warming up... he would at least have a chance of keeping it tied, why are they bringing in fat alberts :/

Haha White Sox.
Couldn't be bothered to answer all the Mets salt from last page. Yes, you got dominated. The game is nine innings. Nobody gives a shit that you scored less runs earlier in the game. Scoreboard matters after the 9th. You lost four of five.

Yeah, Eibner!
there is still a chance they get out of this...
then somehow score a run.
and then win it to take over first again.
granted that is only like a .00001% chance while the royals have a 99.99999% chance of winning it.

It's funny since the only salty person in the last two pages has been you.
No, we didn't get dominated, if you think that you probably need to look up the meaning of the word. You won, good for you, stop gloating it's been 8 months.
It's JUNE. The season is two months on now.
But how is that dominated? It's not.

I didn't bring up any hate. I said Thor apologists were in the wrong, and stand by that statement. Then a Mets fan said he regrets that Thor didn't hit Escobar in the fucking head. Think about that for a minute. He's sad a dude didn't get plunked in the head by a fastball.
That's more assholish in nature than anything Thor ever did.
I typically get a good laugh when Mets fans twist the narrative that they have away a series when they lost four out of five, but I'm fine if that's how people need to spin stuff.
You were very nearly swept. I don't know what else to tell you. I guess we have different definitions of domination.

This thread has gone really downhill this year it seems when it comes to thinly veiled hate.
Yes, Tragicomedy, we get it, Thor was in the wrong. Be the better man and leave it be.

You're absolutely correct. I only got fired up when a regular posted that he wished Thor had hit our gold glove shortstop in the fucking head. That's pathetic. I called that trash out.
But I apologize for ruffling feathers.
Wader, check please. Break out the brooms.

Good. I like the vast majority of the regulars here, but over the past month or so it's been insane how easy it is to light a match and this place devolves into taunting and general bad antics.

Bloodborne is shit
Downhill? You haven't seen shit yet! Wait until I link to my Royals fan fiction site.
I'm working on one now where after hitting a game winning 6 run grand slam Hosmer trots over to the field level seats where I'm sitting, kisses me and it cures my shingles.

what a time to be alive
Already has half as many wins coming out of the bullpen then when he was a starter.
I will say, I am hard pressed to remember a harder time to be a fan of my team.
even when they were losing nearly 100 games there wasn't any hope attached with the team.
jumping to a big lead, watching it fall apart, and then repeatedly lose games they should have won.
if the bullpen had done its job here the white sox would be 2.5 games in front of the indians and 5 in front of KC.
oh well, maybe the make up game in sept will be of importance for KC and the white sox can at least play spoiler.
