With apologies to JFK, "Let the word go forth from this time and place that the fork has been stuck,". . .in the 2010 New York Mets. They are done. They have been psychologically eliminated from playoff contention. I don't say this with glee. I just state the facts. I must also apologize to Tug McGraw for the name of this blog.
People ask me how I can be a Mets fan when they lose as they do, especially in a town that has a team called the Yankees. My earliest memories of baseball come from the late '60s and early '70s. I lived in Flushing, Queens (a remarkable feat of plumbing). The first 2 players that I knew existed were Tom Seaver and Tommy Agee. To a four year old, that meant all players were named Tom and they all played for the Mets. So, I'm not going anywhere. Neither, apparently are the Mets. Well, not to the playoffs in any event.
This site will be devoted to celebrating the good and acknowledging the not so good about the Metropolitan Baseball Club of New York. I hop you enjoy the ride. I know I do every season.
