    Nothing better than wishful thinking. Well, if you're right, good on ya. At least you'll have something to pull for again. The whole Isles and Mets being a laughing stock kinda makes up for you being a Cowboys fan, don't ya think? ;)

    true but the cowboys are much more of a laughing stock then the mets and isles. everyone expects the mets and isles to suck :| .

    its pretty sad i'm more pumped bout a documentary on the rise and fall of the 86 mets then i am of this season. i have no hope for this franchise as long as its being run by a family who used money from a failed ponzi scheme to buyout doubledays share of the franchise. the only way fans will forget bout this is if by some strange luck the mets go deep into the playoffs the next few years and i don't see that happening. outta of all of this mess i feel really feel bad for alderson, riccardi and paul d for being a part of it. i truly hope they can build a winner in the coming years.

    gonna be a tough year dude. at least you're a true fan though...gotta stick with your squads even when they suck.

    alderson will get that mess turned around. unfortunately

    this is nothing for me as a fan. i've lived through and witnessed the worst team money can buy era part 1 and 2 and this is nothing compared to them.

    alderson will get this mess turn around but just how much will he have to spend. will he be able to sign reyes and possibly go after king albert or will the coupons say sorry sandy we don't have the money for those big contracts. thats my main concern cause i know the draft and farm system is in good hands now and not in the hands of some clown like tony b.

    i do think bay will turn out to be that bad of a player. he'll have some protection in the lineup with wright batting infront of him and davis batting behind him.

    It's almost here, I'm starting to get the itch...think we can actually have a decent year if healthy..Wright, Reyes, Beltran, Pagan, Bay, Davis, Murphy (maybe)..not too fucking bad..pitching is sketchy, but am optimistic..

    Well, yeah, I don't think he'll hit only 6 homers again. That was just ridiculous. He still played half his games away from the cavern.

    for some reason every player that isn't a homegrown met has trouble in their first year here. i guess it takes them time to realize they are playing for a shitty team :P .

    Back in August, hoping to hit up some PJ show's if they're playing, maybe the festival. The homeland like everywhere is else in the world has it's good and bad. But it's been a good time.
