METS GETS WET

“We played all kind of ball,” Mets manager Willie Randolph said. “We played long ball, small ball. Whatever it takes to get it done.” Oh, they got it done all right, slapping the Dodgers in the face as they celebrate their first postseason sweep since 1969.

Delgado, Reyes and Wright should always be covered in champagne. Shawn Green, who aptly plays ‘right’ field, played for the Dodgers from 2000-2004. The Mets snagged this yummy stud from Arizona on August 22nd. “The irony of this is crazy, to be celebrating in the visiting clubhouse. It’s a little weird, after doing this in ‘04 on the other side of the field,” he said. “I was actually out there hoping that the last ball came to me, and it did. It feels incredible.” I am quite sure it does feel incredible…send me the last ball and I’ll confirm it for ya hot stuff. Another ex-Dodger and now a Mets hottie, catcher Paul Lo Duca, practically cried when the Dodgers traded him to Florida in 2004, from there, he was sent to the Mets during the off-season. Now he gets the last laugh. “There’s a lot of guys in here who want to prove something,” he said. “It’s a good feeling to get it done.” BAM! Let’s hope the Mets hotties keep it up. The boys will open the NLCS at Shea Stadium on Wednesday against the San Diego-St. Louis winner. Most likely, it’ll be the Cardinals…sorry San Diego, ya just ain’t hot enough this year.

TIGERS GET WET

I was anticipating a wet locker room celebration from the Tigers after their 8-3 win against the Yankees, and they did not disappoint. Aside from the sporn-worthy locker room wetness, the Tigers even sprayed some love into the crowd.

Extra hot points were earned by Ivan ‘Pudge’ Rodriguez, who had a tight grip on his bubbly. Marring the sexy, wet, celebration was Jason Grilli and his battery powered wiper glasses. I applaud your attempt at humor, but seriously the only time these would be appropriate, is if I was in the locker room and needed to see through the hot steam coming from the showers. (Where did you say you got them?) How bad was this loss for the Yankees? This is the second straight year New York lost in the opening round, and rumor has it that manager Joe Torre is gonna be g-o-n-e. He has one year and $7 million left on his contract, and about ten minutes of fame remaining.

WAX ME UP

Ever since my first ‘Brazilian’ I’ve been terrified of wax. Now, I’d like to have as much wax as possible…in the form of Tony Parker pa-leeze. The newly single Spur enjoyed the unveiling of his own wax figure at the Musee Grevin in Paris yesterday. With him, is Ladji Doucoure, World Champion 110m hurdler, who can hurdle my meters any time he wants.

Spur Robert Horry, has me asking WTF? Robert Horry took part in a KFC Restaurant appearance in Paris for the NBA Europe Live event. The only benefit I can see from this appearance? We get a clear shot of the massive hands of Horry. Speaking of hands, I’d like to know what the hell that scary boy is doing with his paw on Horry?

SUNS OVER ROME

Like I said, two words that turn me on. Italy and Basketball. Amare Stoudemire in front of the Coliseum, less than a week after I watched Gladiator for the tenth time. “Are you not entertained? Are you not entertained?” Hells yeah I am.

ALFRED DUNHILL LINKS CHAMPIONSHIP

Ah, the Old Course in Scotland has been host to some golf hotties all week. Flash-kat Ian Poulter listens intently to a special message from Delinda, delivered personally by the mystery man in black, Dennis Hopper. Meanwhile, (L-R) Hugh Grant, David Howell, Kyle MacLachlan and Paul McGinley were just happy to be hanging out on the Swilkin burn bridge during the second round.

HOT POINTS

Soccer stud Deco & his tattoos; Luca Toni & his prayers; Allesandro Del Piero & Fabio Cannavaro for answering my prayers.

Tony Parker for that sly, sexy look: Luke Walton: the curly hair, hypnotic eyes, tattoo, and for just being alive.

Robby Ginepri for his happy trail and hand signals, and Wayne Rooney for controlling the ball.

Curtis Granderson: for grabbing me a bottle and Jose Reyes: for sucking that bottle like there’s no tomorrow. Until then…
And as always, thanks for reading. Delinda
