SLACKISH REACTION: What a surprising morning! The new SEXY PICK in baseball is….The Mets! That’s right? ESPN is asking if everyone is “sleeping on the Mets” – meaning the Mets are good and nobody realizes it. And the MLB Video Game has predicted a Mets vs. Yankees World Series.
As soon as the AAIMBR and the lesser newspapers get wind of this, they will knock out some Copycat Content and further this message that THE METS ARE GOOD!
Let’s review the decade so far: the Mets calmly dealt with a crisis, successfully held a Fan Fest, put four more guys in the Hall of Fame, and now they are the favorites! What a decade for the Mets!
In other news…there’s some kind of graph going around that shows what states hate what teams and the Mets show up a few times including in New Jersey. Whatever.
