And The Big Pussy Pick Of The Week Goes To...


Welcome to the BP Pick of the Week!! This is a new segment here at GBU Mets (well, since this blog is a week old, everything will be relatively "new" here for awhile anyway).

Since this Mets team is riddled with players who regularly get vaginitis and yeast infections - why not honor them with a posting every week?

And the winner this week is...The one, the only...Aaron Heilman.

After all, how fitting is it that the pussy who inspired Coop's Big Pussy's Posse would get the inaugural weekly award. What can I say about one-half of the heart attack brigade in the bullpen (the other half: Jorge Sosa, who is sure to make this list one day or another) that hasn't already been said?

How about, making things "interesting" game in and game out. You are getting paid to get outs in the later innings, Aaron. Throw strikes and when I say strikes, I mean strikes and not meatballs down the middle of the plate, begging to be slammed out of the park.

The icing on the cake was giving up a two-run single to 8th-spot hitting Ronnie Cedeno in the bottom of the 8th against the Cubs Monday night. Madon', why? It's a recurring theme with BP. Yadier Molina anyone? SHEESH. Of course, John Maine left the game with the loss, but of course that takes the pressure off Pussy, opening the floodgates. Hooray. Coupled with a Jorge Sosa melt-down, Mets lose and lose big.

So congrats! The Coop managed to sit down with BP's POW and here is what we said.

COOP: Aaron, what do you have to say about being bestowed with the very first BP Honor at GBU?

BP: Well, Coop, I have to say thanks, thanks for the honor. I was a little pissed off that you took me off the list to begin with - and when you made Pedro Martinez the President of the Posse, I thought - I can't get a starting role on the team AND I can't even stay as a charter member of the club I helped to found! Life so isn't fair.

COOP: No, it isn't Aaron.

Tune in next week for the second BP POW, ya hear?

NOTE: GBU Mets is not affiliated with in any way, shape or form with the New York Mets. In fact, anything remotely resembling a reputable website/blog is misrepresenting our mission here at GBU entirely. And for the record, Jay Horwitz would never allow us to interview Aaron Heilman for a Big Pussy Award. So there.

(AND, BE SURE TO VISIT Coop's First Home, My Summer Family, and check out her rant on Willie and the team.)

Jorge Sosa should be runner up for the dingers he gave up last night and tonight which put the games out of reach.

I went on a rant about delgottago and willie and omar and basically everyone on the team today. Oy. Sosa is just the tip of the 'berg

Taryn,

:) , LOL!...took me a long, LONG time to recharge the ol' batteries and get back into the swing of things, as far as the Mets and interacting goes.

This site put the spark back into my step, through the ol' reliable....a good smile, from a good laugh, via some good wit such as your article here.

You gals and guys(Dingo) have a good thing going here, imo.

Don't waiver, its unique. Mets kingdom across the net needs this place badly.

I'll be chatting again soon, and I hope all is going well with you.

Take care,
Rob-

Love the piece, Coop - LOVE IT! I'm going to update the Little Pussies List accordingly.

Oh, and Sosa will DEFINITELY be on it, Gary! :)

And thank you Rob for the kind words.

And I'm also going to link Coop's rant over at MSF!

As soon as I wake up, that is!
