Mets Off-Season Thread

[MDS]

if he doesnt root for the teams, you should literally beat him until he does. thats what my dad did to me when i started rooting for the mariners, and i turned out juuuuust fine.

[PhillyPhreak54]

I had a Mariners hat one time. And an Indians one too. Why? Because I loved the Mariners teal caps with the dark blue bill and I was a big time Griffey Jr. fan when I was in HS. And I bought an Indians hat because I love Lou Brown, Roger Dorn, Rick Vaughn and Willie Mays Hays.

Now I only have Phils hats.

The point here? None at all. Just piggybacking MDS' comment about the Mariners. Oh, and MDS, your pops should have beaten you a little more. Just for shteins and giggles.

Oh...F the Mets!

[Geowhizzer]

I have an Indians hat from 1995... I wanted them to beat the Braves, too.  Too bad the Indians were the only team that were bigger chokers than Atlanta.

It's called bandwagon.

Not exactly, friend. When I was young, my dad couldnt get Giants or Jets tickets, so he got Eagles tix. He was though able to get Mets tickets.

And that is how you become a Eagles and Mets fan.

when i was a kid...i rooted for the indians as well. i have no idea why, i just decided to pick an AL team.

anyway...farg the mets

It's called bandwagon.

Yeah, bandwagon... cuz Lord knows there's been a ton of championships between the Mets and Eagles to brag about.  Get real.


Anyways... I grew up in NY so most of my fave teams are in NY, the Mets, Knicks and so on.  Didn't really feel the Gnats, Jets or Bills... I picked up on the Eagles when I was 11 and have been with them for almost 20 years.

Kiss my ass with that Bandwagon crap.

Boil him in a pot like Mandingo?

[Rome]

Ahahahaha!  Get Mandingo a Mint Julip because he called that shtein!

Mutts lose 6-5 on a homer by someone who has never changed the oil in my car!

Phils just 1 skinny-ass little game back!   

[Feva]

You understand a hot streak only lasts so long, right. 

[SD_Eagle5]

uh oh....smells like 1 game back! 

You understand a hot streak only lasts so long, right. 

Yup, and so do the Mets.

[The BIGSTUD]

The Mets will be under .500 in no time.

[Feva]

...maintaining at least a 3 game lead over the Phils, of course.

[BigEd76]

NY heads to St. Louis, while the Phils face Chris Capuano and two no-names
