| Mets: Flighty response breaks tension Thursday, July 24, 2003 When it gets this close to the trading deadline almost everyone is caught up in the frenzy and becomes obsessed with who is getting whom. Even flight attendants can catch the trading bug. On the Mets flight from Philadelphia to Montreal Tuesday night -- just hours after the Pirates had traded Kenny Lofton, Aramis Ramirez and Scott Sauerbeck -- there was an excited ruckus in the rear of the Mets charter. One of the flight attendants came down and asked why they were so happy. "We got Qusay and Uday," Al Leiter exclaimed. "I’m sorry," the flight attendant responded, "I don’t know baseball. Are they any good?" The players broke up in laughter. "It was hysterical," Mike Piazza said. "It spread through the plane in a nano-second." -- David Waldstein That’s what they’re missing - Arab teammates. |
