Hey, Mets fans: Are you looking to meet the New York area’s hottest sabermetrically inclined singles? Would you like to find an attractive, eligible partner who wants nothing more than to enjoy a long walk on the beach while discussing the relative merits of VORP versus WAR?
Well, I can’t help you. But if you want to get together with a bunch of other fans to discuss the Mets’ offseason, come to the Blue and Orange Hot Stove Huddle next Wednesday, Dec. 16, at 7 p.m.
I will be there and probably participating in some sort of to be determined discussion or forum or pie-eating contest.
It’s at River on 500 W. 43rd St. and 10th Ave. in Manhattan.
You should come. I’m told they serve booze there, and, let’s be honest, you almost certainly have nothing better to do. I know I don’t. Avatar doesn’t even come out until Friday.
So RSVP via Facebook.
And if you do come, please say hello. I’ll be the ridiculously handsome guy standing in the corner, drinking Jack and coke, and making snarky and judgmental comments to and/or about Joe Janish from MetsToday.com.
My “maybe” will become an instant “yes” if you can promise a pie-eating contest involving yourself and various other Mets bloggers.
I got nothin better to do, I’ll come if you Met fans can handle a rational Yankee fan.
Certainly; the blogs involved in this shindig are some of the most reasonable Mets blogs. There’ll be way more angst toward the Mets than toward the Yankees.
Goddamn it; this HAD to be the night my wife flies back from NC. Of course.
Anyone recording/podcasting the proceedings?
Ted, as one of the bloggers on the esteemed (?) panel that will be participating at the Hot Stove Huddle, I challenge you and any other Mets blogger who wishes to participate to a pie eating contest.
That just happened.
Oh snap, you gonna let Chris talk to you like that?
