Interesting News from Metroland...

- Players are obviously happy with the new acquisitions, Mathis and Myers. All but Chung, who is reportedly very unhappy about his not starting and says he wants out. Do not look for Nick and OZ to get rid of him however. They both feel he is a valuable player and is definitely in their plans. They are doing things so much different than Charlie ever did... such as planning for the future, not looking for a quick fix. Finally, Finally, Finally.

- Look for Comas to be shipped out of town in the near future. Metros are reportedly trying to find any takers, if not they will waive him. He does not fit in with this team and OZ is willing to dump him even though he was his project. Some players have said how much they dislike him and cannot wait to get rid of him. Just less snow coming into the New Jersey area by way of Colombia (is this a good thing or bad you may ask?)

- Early in the week, Walsh had a heart to heart with OZ about his situation with the team. OZ told him he will not get rid of him as he is needed in case of a injury to Dooley -- see Saturday's game -- as well as needing him for next year when Lothar and Dooley are gone. Yes Lothar will be gone next year, but if OZ and Nick have their way, it will be sooner rather than later.

- If you would like to have a great time and get absolutely rat ass drunk following a Metro's win (and I stress WIN), look no further than Houstons in Secaucus near the Holiday Inn. Nick was seen there following the Tampa game buying drinks for some of the players from both teams. Seems Nick is fond of the old bottle following a win. Don't look for him out on the town following a loss however, he is one of the worst losers (again, that's following a loss) there is. But keep up the good work Nick, we are proud of the team you are building and hard work you have done so far.

- One last cheer for all of you in attendance on Saturday night - great atmosphere that should be bettered for this Saturday. Without us screaming and supporting the franchise would not exist. Let's continue to show our loyalty and attend each game.
