Let NOT Go Mets
After watching a recap of the game last night and reading the paper this morning, I have to agree with Peter. The best thing for the Mets to do at this point is lose it all and come back next season having achieved the goal of ending the season above 500. We all knew this was going to happen since the Mets have NEVER won back to back titles in the teams entire history. They should just continue to lose and just let the Phillies get beaten up by whoever they play next since, at this point, I think the Mets would be done before they started.
Not that the season has not been fun. There have been both great ups and downs and they managed to stay in first place most of the season which is probably more than they have done most seasons. There have been players who have stepped up to the occasion and surprised us all. We have had very few total disappointments this season on the team. It has been a great team to watch and I appreciate that. But this is the Mets they work hard to break your heart in the end and I think they are doing it again.
Giants and Jets won last week. This week I think the Jets will and the Giants won't win. At this point I see both teams as spoilers for someone going to the Superbowl rather than one of the teams going to the Superbowl. What happened to these teams? Was Tiki Barber that important to the Giants? Are the Jets ever going to have a quarterback who is not day to day after the first game of the season? And who is going to slap down the Pats and their coach who got caught (one does wonder how much of this has been going on over the years for all the teams)? Makes for a lot of interesting talk on WFAN.
My prediction for the World Series? I have a wacky one, Cubs vs. Yankees and tell me that you would not tune in to see that series now that the BoSox have broken the curse.
I am grateful for sports and sports talk.

GO Phils!! We haven't won the World series in 27 years. And we haven't played in the WS since 1983.

But she would probably be berating me for saying that the Mets should just go ahead a lose. And tell Peter the same thing on his blog *grin*
