So,this is just about Sterling and his minor league, embarrassing way of broadcasting games, and has been mentioned for years by me. Even years when the Mets were playing well.LOOK it up. I've talked about how many Mets announcers have gone on to work national broadcasts in baseball and football and don't think Sterling or Waldman would ever get asks to do that. As Kbee would say,just speaking the truth.
Hey, I saw that the Mets scored 5 runs last night. I didn't know you guys were playing a triple-header!Lol, I get it keep beating that dead horse.
I've actually caught parts of Mets games lately. Man, you better be able to laugh. The Amazins need a whole lot of improvement.
We don't wonder about that. We know that some Mets fans here are very, very sensitive and have the ear of a mod or two.
From the 1st time I stated the EPIC FAIL, it was in reference to "MAKING" the WS, not having to win it.I agree with almost all of what you just said. The Mets don't have many if any options to turn around their future except to tear a part their strength,starting pitching. Cashman is the best GM in baseball and has done an amazing job retooling and having the Yankees on the brink of greatness.Where I 100% disagree with you is that it won't be an EPIC FAIL if they "don't make" the WS this season. After falling one game short of getting there, and then signing the NL MVP and best HR hitter in baseball, anything less than a WS appearance would be, in my opinion, an EPIC FAIL.
I don't care if they finish 140-22, they better make the WS or it's a EPIC FAIL,that is all.
No, it's just insanity, :sunglasses: actually, I'm over 63, and I'm forgetting what I said two minutes ago, so you might be right. So, get off my lawn!!!
Mets ? Championship ?
Sure it looks pretty grim, no doubt,yet with a very similar lineup, farm system, and ownership with equal spending habits, the Mets made the WS in 2015, and playoffs in 2016. Saying they won't make it back,or win the WS in a long time is pretty ignorant, and yet,I act like a 12 year old,lol. Never realized my little catch phrase got under so many's skin. Night,night kiddies.
2016, EPIC FAIL, 2015 they got there, not winning was disappointing. That's all I'm trying to say to you Yankee fans. Gotta get there after falling one game short last season and then adding the premier hitter in all of baseball. No excuses, no well the road is gonna be tough,bull$hit.
Relax about 2015. The Mets were mediocre and going nowhere until they caught lighting in a bottle with Cespedes and then again with Murphy in the LCS. You guys then dumped Murphy and Ces is a permanent injury risk. You guys used up your luck for long, long, long time.
Other than Murphy who hit a very pedestrian 14 HR's and .281,what is so dramatically different? He went wild in the playoffs but my point which I guess you can't seem to follow is the teams are not very different, and be made into winners if the GM made better moves. Hey, for the sake of argument,insanity is right,the Mets never win another WS in my lifetime,I can live with that,I'd just hope my 2 sons, which I cursed with helping to make them Mets fans, get the chance to see a couple.That is all.
And maybe the Yankees lightning in the bottle is right now, and it burns out way before "making" the WS! Hence,EPIC FAIL.
Again, I said make the WS. I'm loving the fact that EPIC FAIL has taken on a life of it's own,now!!!!!!!:pray:
Yeah, our "lighting in the bottle" is tons of amazingly talented young players who will have long, long careers. Good grief, you need to think before you type! :)
Ha! A Metsie fan saying no excuses!! You been making a million excuses for your crappy Mets for the last two seasons. Oh and please remind me of the starting pitcher we added to the staff this year.
Oh God, Stanton wasn't enough? Lmao, don't worry, that's on the way, which will make October even more painful.Unreal
