I read this article and I have to feel for the guy. He appears to really love the game. I mean, to go down to this level just to try to climb back into a decent position? The guy deserves an award for perseverence.

I hope it works out for him. He's still a Met in my book.

Is it just me, or is there an article in one of the local papers about Backman every couple of weeks lately?

Green Must Go

I can only hope that Wally saved some of his salary as a player to live off of....

GET THE PIECE OF CRAP McGimpy OFF MY TEAM NOW!!!!!

The McGimpy does most things upside down: eats, sleeps (an average of 23 hours per day), mates, and gives birth. Because of the McGimpy's upside down life, many of the McGimpy's internal organs (liver, stomach, spleen, pancreas) are in different positions from other mammals. McGimpy sometimes lets out a cry or hissing sound.

During the rare times the McGimpy goes down to the ground (such as to change trees for food), it moves very slowly.

Old Georgie Boy has a hard on for rehabbing members of that old 1986 team, surprised he hasn't been all over Backman.

Two shock jocks laugh at a rape joke = Those guys are *******s and should be fired.

Wally Backman has to work for a living because he assaulted his wife and her friend, drove drunk and harrassed his wife = "Let's root for this guy because he was a Met!"

Gotta love the consistency on the MOFO.

You forgot "Delgado is Anti-War, therefore he's a terrorist and a cancer in the clubhouse and deserves to be hated".
