July 28, 200323 yr Mets: Flighty response breaks tension Thursday, July 24, 2003 When it gets this close to the trading deadline almost everyone is caught up in the frenzy and becomes obsessed with who is getting whom. Even flight attendants can catch the trading bug. On the Mets flight from Philadelphia to Montreal Tuesday night -- just hours after the Pirates had traded Kenny Lofton, Aramis Ramirez and Scott Sauerbeck -- there was an excited ruckus in the rear of the Mets charter. One of the flight attendants came down and asked why they were so happy. "We got Qusay and Uday," Al Leiter exclaimed. "I'm sorry," the flight attendant responded, "I don't know baseball. Are they any good?" The players broke up in laughter. "It was hysterical," Mike Piazza said. "It spread through the plane in a nano-second." -- David Waldstein lmao
July 28, 200323 yr LOL it was great that we got them and at least this might get the Met's mind off of baseball for an hour or so. How stupid is the Flight attendant? Does she read the newspaper or watch the news? Must live in a nutshell
July 28, 200323 yr i hear we're trying to get Saddam for 3 top prospects, and we're also willing to part with some cash and some of our offensive weapons . apparently we want this guy real bad. his trading card would be real valuable, revolting, but valuable.
