The Stupidest Post I Have Ever Read on the Internet

 

At last night's Subway Series game at Yankee Stadium a pro-Palestinian protester at 9:11 PM ran on the field with a Palestinian flag.  The police promptly tackled him and escorted off the field. The fans yelled out "USA"  He will likely face several criminal charges.

This morning a well-known radio personality on a major AM station posted this on X:

The difference between the Yankees and Mets was evident last night and it had nothing to do with the final score. If that Pro Palestine clown would have run on the field at Citi  Field instead of Yankee Stadium

Mr. and Mrs. Met would have hugged him!!!!!!

If this had happened at Citi Field, the police would have done the same thing and the Met fans would have yelled out "USA" as well.

I have never listened to this guy in all the years I have been a fan of radio.  In any event I don't listen to political talk radio.

That Was Some Game Last Night as the Mets Beat the Marlins 15-14

 

I watched most of the game on TV since it was in Miami.  The Mets coasted to an 8-0 lead, but the Marlins tied it up.  The Mets took a 14-8 lead and still lead 15-11 going into the bottom of the ninth inning.  The Marlins scored 3 runs to make the score 15-14.  They had the tieing run on second and the potential  the winning run on first, but Tobias Myers got the last two outs for the save.

The Mets scored 6 runs in 2nd and 7th innings.  Christopher Morel came in the game in the second inning as a pinch runner for Bret Baty.  He hit a single, double and home run and would have been the first player to hit for the cycle who did not start the game if he hit a triple in his last at bat in the 8th inning.  He struck out.

When I can't think of anything to say, I just post a random oldie.

Mets Come from Behind to Beat the Giants 4-2

 

Mets starter Christian Scott lasted 4 2/3 innings. He permitted three of his four hits in the fourth, when the Giants went ahead on Jung Hoo Lee’s bloop single that scored two runs.  Nothing happened until the 8th inning when ht a pinch-hit homer for the Mets' first run.  With Francisco Lindor on third base the Giants intentionally walked Juan Soto.  That turned out to be a mistake as Bo Bichette hit a three-run homer to give the Mets a 4-2 lead.  Kodai Senga pitched a perfect 9th inning for the save.  It was nice to see a come from behind victory in this disappointing season.

Random Thoughts of the Day - September 4, 2026

 

• Strange younger women are still trying to contact me on Telegram.  I know better and immediate ignore them.  I don't know what they are trying to accomplish.  Likewise I get text messages on my cell phone number that I ignore.
• So far no success on dating apps.  I don't want to travel 30-40 miles to meet a woman when likely it won't work out.  I'll hang in there until my subscription expires.  Perhaps dating apps work better for younger people since I heard of some people meeting their future spouses that way.
• I still have crazy dreams about visiting my former employer.  I feel that I have nothing to gain by traveling to the past.  Many of my former colleagues have retired or moved on to other jobs.

The Bots Have Taken Over Web Traffic

 

Data from Google states that Bruce's Journal has received over 11 million hits since it began.  But how many are from real people and how many are from bots.  An article from NBC News states that 57.4% of web traffic is from bots.  I think for my journal it must be even higher.  I post that I wrote in 2008 about the Broadway show Jersey Boys received 156 hits in the last 24 hours.  Why would so many people search that in one day?  I assume there are bots from all over the world.

I always wonder how many real people who hit this journal are from people who know me.
