A tough loss

No, I'm not talking about the Mets. They never seem to lose these days. Just wanted to take a minute to wish a good friend and outstanding (former) teammate Jon Heyman the best of luck as he moves on to Sports Illustrated. Anyone who ever read a word about baseball in New York is familiar with the byline, and the exclusive stories he broke in the pages of Newsday -- and on the web site -- over his 15-plus years are too numerous to list in this space. Best wishes.

He will be missed.

Big fan of John's. Will continue to read Newsday and follow him at SI.com.3
Congrats to him.

METS ARE HOT AS EVIDENCE BY REYES HITTING OVER 500 IN HIS LAST 60 AT BATS BUT HE'S A CAREER 250 HITTER AND BELTRAN A CAREER 260. SO WHO IS KIDDING WHOM.EVEN THE MARLINS ARE HOT SO DON'T CHIRP TOO LOUD. SOX ARE ALSO HOT AND DON'T RELY ON A FRAGILE PITCHING STAFF.LOOK FOR PAPI AND MANNY TO COOL DOWN THE MUTTS AND PEDRO TO FIND OUT WHO'S HIS DADDY. OH YEA, WHATS THE NL RECORD IN INTERLEAGUE PLAY?

Heyman's gone? Newsday just became far less hacktastic. One of the most abrasive and obnoxious sportswriters around.

Didn't always agree with Heyman, and thought he could be real obnoxious, self-righteous, and downright stupid at times ... but he seemed like he always put a good deal of effort into his work and meant the best. It was always appreciated ... even when we disagreed. Good luck at SI.
