my first trip to citifield

August 2nd, 2009 · No Comments

I went to my first ever Mets game at Citifield last night, and it was a good time, especially since the Mets broke a tie in the 8th and beat the Diamondbacks, 6-9.

A lot of offense by both teams, including a beauty of a grand slam by Angel Pagan.
And, as luck would have it, I [...]

sports new year’s day

February 11th, 2009 · No Comments

My good friend Drew has a modest proposal.  It’s called Sports New Year’s Day.
The idea came to me yesterday while trying to think of ways to avoid Valentines Day. Really, who needs a made up holiday? I resolved that instead of sulking around and thinking about being alone and heartbreak and girls on the 14th, [...]

didn’t I write a post about the mets just like this one a year ago?

One year ago I sat at a sports bar in London as the Mets lost their final game of the season to the Florida Marlins which capped their historic collapse in which they blew their seven-game NL East lead with 17 games to go.
Yesterday, the final day of the regular season, the Mets found themselves [...]

even in my dreams the NL loses

July 16th, 2008 · No Comments

Last night was the MLB All-Star Game, which the AL won 3-4 after 15 innings of battle.
However, I only lasted until the 12th.  Well, more accurately, I lasted until the 9th, fell asleep, and woke up in the 12th and turned the TV off.  I proceeded to have at least two dreams about the “final [...]

So it’s been pointed out to me that I haven’t posted anything new in about a month now.  Well, in alphabetical order, here are a list of things that have kept me busy over the past three weeks.
Battlestar Galactica – A few weeks ago, I was about to take a nap when Kristine flipped on [...]

super bowl champions and a pie chart

February 5th, 2008 · 1 Comment

This past Sunday was the greatest Super Bowl ever.  Clearly I am biased because I am a New York Giants fan, but you have to admit that was an amazing game.
Here are my personal highlights from the 2007 NFL Season:

Watching the opening game of the season against the Cowboys on Tay-Tay’s crazy 50-something inch TV.
Being [...]

being a new york sports fan in philadelphia

December 9th, 2007 · No Comments

Since I entered college I’ve been fortunate enough to have all three of my favorite teams (Rangers, Mets, and Giants) be division rivals with Philadelphia teams (Flyers, Phillies, and Eagles), so the teams I like are in town fairly often.
While I’ve seen the Mets multiple times in Philadelphia, the Giants come to town only once [...]

Rest In Peace, New York Mets 2007 Season.
(Flushing, NY) The 2007 New York Mets Season (2007NYMS) died today after a tragic 8-1 loss to the Florida Marlins, which capped off the end of one of the Mets more memorable collapses. 2007NYMS was vibrant in its youth, starting in April with a record of 15-9, [...]

Here in the UK, when referring to athletic completion, it’s not “sports”, but “sport”. Therefore, I will now drone on about sport.
Mets – Today is judgment day. It’s the last day of the regular season, and their slide over the past couple of weeks has resulted in a potential four-way tie for the [...]

Well, I seem to have worked out the issues with the domain, so welcome to the global launch of www.coreyhulse.com!
Are you excited? I know that I am! I think I’ll celebrate by drinking some Orangina, eating some McVities, and getting a good night’s sleep.
PS: Dear Mets, stop sucking and make the playoffs already.
