| Introduction | I'm old for a blogger--a Mets fan from 69 with a daughter (middle) named for Seaver & Ruth. I write quasi-pro, any better I wouldn't have time for this. I’ve served time as a StratOmatic nerd, hung w/celebs, and begun a new generation of Mets fans. I now rap: I like the Mets & I can not lie U other blogas can't deny When a guy runs in with a change-a-pace & a round thing in Ur face U get stung U wanna hold Ur swing Cuz u noticed that pitch would sting Like he’s throwin a spitta Or an unhitt’ble splitta Oh Johan we wanna start wit ya As our ace pitcha My Pedro luvs Ur teamin With the Mets U got Me dreamin Oo rub all that horse hide U say U throw up & inside Well pitch it, pitch it, cuz U ain't that belly itcher I've seen them Phillins The hell with Rollins U can fetch, catch, got em scared comin outa the stretch I'm tired of ESPN saying AL’s the one’ll win Take the average smart fan & ask him that We gotta K em away So Blogas(yeah), blogas(yeah) Have Ur New York Mets got the Ace(hell yeah) Well throw it, throw it, throw it, throw it, throw that change-a pace Johan got game |
