Some Great Quotes...

-The Mets held a press conference to introduce new General Manager Sandy Alderson. I guess his opening statement could've been a little bit better. When introduced as the new Mets General Manager, Alderson said,

"I view the position as General Manager of the Oakland...excuse me, of the New York Mets, as really the best job available in baseball."

Sandy, just a heads up...maybe be drop "Oakland" and "available" from that statement. Just a thought.


-New York Giants DT Barry Cofield on Redskins fans chanting "Green Bay Won" during the Giants/Redskins game indicating the Giants were eliminated from the playoffs...

"Their fans are all cheering and what-not. That shows you the state of their team, that they have to cheer about us failing. When you have no success, those are the kinds of things that excite you."


-I was walking down the street a couple days after NYC just got over 20 inches of snow. At this point, a majority of the streets in the city were still covered with snow...3 days after the storm. As I'm walking, a Dept. of Sanitation truck parked and two workers got out and started walking towards me. As they're talking, one of the guys crumples up a piece of paper and tries to toss it in a garbage can maybe a foot away from him. He hits the edge and it falls on the ground. He looks at it and says to his co-worker...


"Ehh...whadda ya want me to do?"


Doesn't pick it up and walks into a deli. I guess now I'm not that shocked that all our streets are still not plowed.
