When you consider the fact that the last time the football team I grew up with made it to the Super Bowl, we still did not know that the moon was not made of cheese, the end of football has always meant "2 weeks till pitchers and catchers" to me.
Many of my friends think that my disparaging remarks about the Amazins' chances in past years meant that I did not like them. Nothing could be further from the truth! I'm a big fan! So, where do we stand?
We played the last 3months of the season with a record that was 2 games over .500. The pitching staff is about to welcome back a young generational ace in Matt Harvey. I am not going to tempt fate with the baseball gods by making any predictions, but I do believe that October baseball in Queens is not unreasonable.
Next post when camp opens- enjoy the commercials, um er, I mean the Super Bowl!
