BlueClaws – A Great Night Out At The Jersey Shore

Lou Russo — Thu, 11 Apr 2013 09:49:58 +0000

I’m a big sports fan and I can tell you this. We’re very lucky to have the Lakewood BlueClaws in our backyard. As you know, I’m a huge Mets fan, but even on the best night, I’m not exactly in the mood to travel to Flushing, Queens, deal with parking and pay the ridiculous prices for [...]

Now They're Going To Question Derek Jeter? Really?? [POLL]

Lou Russo — Fri, 24 Aug 2012 13:11:17 +0000

Derek Jeter has spent an entire career staying away from controversy and being a model employee for the New York Yankees, and now one “analyst” hints that he wouldn’t absolutely deny the possibility that Jeter might be taking performance enhancing drugs and the headlines begin. Of course, Jeter is shrugging the whole thing off, saying this [...]

Is The Jersey Shore Turning Into A "Mets Town"? [POLL]

For years now, our area has clearly been a "Yankees Town". As a Mets fan, no one knows that better than I do, and with the successes of the Yankees, and the failures of the Mets, it's no real surprise. This weekend though, a Yankees fan friend of mine said he thought the tables were turning.

Are You a NY or Philly Baseball Fan? This Map Claims to Have The Answer [PHOTO]

Yankees, Mets or Phillies? A map from “New Jersey the Movie” claims that the alledgence to your team is based a lot on location. Is this map accurate? Let’s count the “Yankees” portions of the map as “Yankees/Mets.” You’ll notice a thin dividing line between the two teams. Additionally, both seem to be equally represented. [...]

All Local Baseball Fans Should Be Rooting For Mariano Rivera

I'm a Mets fan through and through. I'll admit that it's always more difficilt to handle a Mets loss on a day when the Yankees win. It 's just part of the rivalry. And the Yankees are always winning. It's a little annoying. But Mets fans aren't only about winning, or we wouldn't be Mets fans. This Mariano Rivera injury is different though. I want to put the rivalry aside and stand up next to all Yankees fans and root for a speedy recovery. Mariano deserves that.

Rude Baseball Fans Steal Foul Ball From Child And Make Him Cry [VIDEO]

Matt Ryan — Fri, 27 Apr 2012 01:05:40 +0000

The rudeness of some people is amazing, but this act of selfishness takes the cake. With New York fans always being poorly labeled, I'm glad it was made clear by YES announcer Michael Kay that this was clearly a mean act by one Texas fan to another Texas fan who couldn't have been more than 5 years old. See the video after the jump.

Mets Are In 1st Place…I'll Enjoy It While I Can!

Lou Russo — Fri, 06 Apr 2012 10:24:54 +0000

Opening Day at CitiField resuted in a 1-0 Mets win over the Atlanta Braves. The Mets are in first place! I say that now because this will likely be the only time I'll be able to say it all season long. For all you Yankees and Phillies fans out there, let me have my day. You guys will have all season to be in or close to first place. I have today.
