So happy together! Nice to hear that Carmelo Anthony is getting along with his new fan base in Houston. Rockets wanted LeBron James but settled for Melo. When the unsuspecting Anthony looked at Instagram he came upon these love letters. “Say people have to play defense why is Melo here?” … “Everything is in slow motion when he plays” … “retire the hoodie” and “fricking old crusty ass.” Rude awakening for Melo, who returned fire with “I didn’t ask for your glazed donut ass to root for me anyway” as well as a few “expletives”… Knicks and Nets schedules are out. Perennial losers will meet in the second game of the season ensuring one of them will be at .500 after two.

Brewers edged the Cards 2-1. Jedd Gyorko’s blast died on the warning track to end the game. St. Louis couldn’t solve Jhoulys Chacin who pitched six shutout innings. Lost weekend has us back at -622 mccarvers.

Mets are back from Williamsport, Pa. Played the Phillies tough this weekend and now they get the Giants at home. Zack Wheeler has been untouchable lately while striking out 20 over his past three starts. 20 units on the Mets.
