Let's be honest, which other team could be capable of more incompetence than the lowly New York Mess? (Thanks to ESPN for providing the original pic.)
We all know how horrible the Mets are by now. They have a clubhouse full of pussies and prima donnas, an incompetent, bumbling manager, an ego-maniacal GM with a Vince Young IQ, and a new shitty--err--Citi Field that might as well be relocated to downtown Philly.
Well, add a new chapter of incompetence to the Mets 2009 storybook of suckitude. Not only do they give up an unassisted triple play to one of the worst players in the league, but they get owned in fights with Philly fans too. (See the video at the bottom of this post.)
Quote of the Day
Eric Bruntlett, on the Phillies radio broadcast discussing his triple play:
“I think I just blacked out for a minute.”
And THERE IT IS! His typical crappiness vanished for just a split second, allowing him to pull off the triple play when he probably ordinarily wouldn’t have even of made the catch. This is why we love sports, people, for the sheer unpredictability of it all.
**UPDATE**
Here’s a link to Scott Franzke and Larry Anderson’s call of Bruntlett’s triple play. These guys are just outstanding and this really proves it.
Have to thank Deadspin for that beauty.
