unreal...BUT i implore mets fans...there's still a good chance they make the playoffs.

only thing i don't get is that this was probably the biggest mets game of the season and there were alot of empty seats in the orange boxes. what's up with that?

I don't know. I can only speak for myself, but seeing the way this team approached the final stages of the season has really disappointed me. Honestly, I could not bring myself to pay for a ticket to a game knowing how little these guys have cared. Up until the last two games, players could be seen smiling after errors and blown leads. It does not inspire. These guys acted like the could care less. And for the longest time they were so relaxed. I think they realize now that you just can't turn the urgency on whenever you feel like it. It has to be ingrained in your attitude from the start.

That being said, I think they sweep the Marlins and the Phillies lose one more game and they're in.

you know, i don't understand why there are mets fans talking about the yankees in the beginning of the year when every year they struggle in the beginning and turn it on this time of year. that is why i kept my mouth shut about them. now we jinxed ourselves and looking at a playoff-less season while the yankees have a good shot at going to the world series. i remember that in the beginning of the season the mets are the frontrunners to make the world series. we can't point fingers and say its the bullpen. i mean, look at the national league. do any teams have a bullpen that blows you away? phillies had an awful bullpen but they find ways to win. we can't do anything right, hit, field or pitch so whose fault is that? i am also tired of willie protecting his guys. hey, man up and say that these guys are playing like they don't want it. its gut check time and it was gut check time earlier this week and they did not respond. now we can either get knocked out of the playoffs completely ( most likely scenerio), tie with phillies and play a one game playoff against them AT philly when they are on a 9 game winning streak against us ( second likely scenerio) or if we are lucky phils lose more games than us over the weekend when a week ago they played and swept washington at washington and florida love playing spoilers- ask the cubs ( least likely scenerio). it doesn't look good and i will call for willie's head if he fails. we can blame minaya all we want with not improving the bullpen but willie's decision and leadership quite frankly sucks at a time we need him to step up the most. that is the difference between him and torre. torre KNOWS when to step up and randolph is lost. (p.s. misterearl, where have you been? you said that the mets will turn it around. you are right about that but not about the direction.

unreal...

Go Cubbies. My Cubs are in but their pitching won't hold in the second season.

Mets have to win the last 2 and Phillies have to lose last 2, while possible......it ain't gonna happen!! Phillies play hustle ball, Mets just play!! I have been a Mets fan for a long time, I have never been this disappointed. I hope I'm wrong on the "it ain't gonna happen" statement.

I have never been so disappointed about a team...ugh, imagine they lose today and the Phillies win...we're done! DONE! a whole summer of watching this team, with the expectations of winning a pennant, will be gone before the sun sets.

And all we want from the Knicks is a .500 record and an eigth seed! That is just disgusting and pathetic. If baseball had as many opportunities for teams enter the post season as basketball, the Mets would be just fine. There would be ZERO chance for the Knicks if they were an MLB team.

And for those who rip on Willie, they should just shut the F up. This is not his fault. In fact, Mr. Minaya is the one to blame, along with Rick "the Mullet" Peterson. What's scary is that Minaya kind of reminds me of Zeke.

Fellow Mets fans...your Post-mortem Season has COME!




Oh yeah...Let's Go.........Knicks!

Orange & Blue teams = cursed

Wow. Unbelievable.
Go ahead and take whatever pleasure you want- The most obnoxious fans on both sides of any rivalry are the loudest- while the majority just loves the sport and roots for their team.
I'm going to the Saturday game. We're still in it as bad at it is. I was upset to see Shea so empty on Thursday night. No other words, really- we'll see if the Mets have what would be a miracle left in them.
PS I decided a couple days ago to stop drinking alcohol until the Mets win a game. Hopefully I won't have to wait till Spring Training.

You're right man. I can appreciate that it sucks to have your team collapse. I got my little immature rant out of the way. Sorry!
