GimmeShelter Posted April 6, 2006 Share Posted April 6, 2006 The best part of last nights loss was when Homer Kay tried to reference Mattingly's career in his argument that Frank Thomas wasn't Hall Of Fame material. Kay even went so far as to imply steroids. Thankfully Singleton interceeded and put Kays nonsense to rest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scott Dierking Posted April 6, 2006 Share Posted April 6, 2006 That this is even talked about, is hysterical. Wagner started using the song in '96, but that is not realy the point. Are the Yankees now going to claim that "take me out to the ball game" is theirs too? How 'bout hot dogs-They want to secure that so no one else can serve them? Typical Yankee hysteria Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scott Dierking Posted April 6, 2006 Share Posted April 6, 2006 He started using the song in 1996 when he had 50 IP and 9 saves? I find that hard to believe. Suspend disbelief: Song belongs to Met-tallica BY ADAM RUBIN DAILY NEWS SPORTS WRITER Wednesday, April 5th, 2006 Not only should the Mets play "Enter Sandman" when closer Billy Wagner takes the mound at Shea, the manager of Metallica says they should turn up the volume. "Frankly, they could have played it louder as far as I'm concerned," said Peter Mensch, the band's manager and a Mets season-ticket holder. "My comment is: Go Billy." A day after Wagner closed the Mets' 3-2 Opening Day victory with Mensch in attendance, sports-talk radio erupted, with Yankee fans railing at Wagner's entry music - the same song used by Mariano Rivera in the Bronx. For the record, Wagner used the song first, even if it's synonymous in baseball circles with Rivera's entrance. While with Houston during Wagner's rookie season in 1996, teammate Jeff Bagwell disliked the lefty's entry music, George Strait's "They Call Me the Fireman," and persuaded Wagner to switch. Rivera didn't begin using the song for another three years. Yankee Stadium personnel had been so struck by the crowd reaction in San Diego the previous season when Trevor Hoffman entered games to AC/DC's "Hell's Bells" that they sought to find an anthem for Rivera. Scoreboard operator Mike Luzzi brought in a bunch of CDs and the Yankees tested different tunes, including Guns N' Roses' "Paradise City." They settled on "Enter Sandman," which drew the best crowd response. Rivera didn't even know anything about the band." __________________ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mavrik Posted April 6, 2006 Share Posted April 6, 2006 The fact that both Yanks and Mets fans are making such a big deal out of something so incredibly stupid as a song just shows why everyone outside of new york think yanks and mets fans are tools.

Why should you care if the Mets use the song? It's a freaking song! I hear many same songs with different teams in different sports. Why? Because they make sense when they are played. 'Enter Sandman' is an obvious choice for a closer. Neither Wagner or Rivera have the right to it nor should anyone be upset if someone else plays it. If I played it when I'm on the mound during a wiffleball game will I be dissing the yanks and Mo? Or do I need to be thrwoing in nyc for it to matter?
