Another day another link to the great Faith & Fear…but this time it’s Jason Fry at the keyboard.
Tacky, tasteless, awful. For nearly two decades, those were your Florida Marlins. I could never bring myself to hate them so much as I simply wanted them to go away — to San Antonio or Portland or Contraction, whatever was available first. No, I’m not missing the fact that they were also a constant, gigantic thorn in the Mets’ side. They finished ahead of us in their inaugural season. They sat on our casket in 2007 and then again in 2008. Lots and lots of Marlins I loathed became Mets I loathed just as much if not more. They have as many World Series titles as we do. I am not blind to any of this.

As for Jason’s partner Greg Prince – I hope Hofstra crushes today. I wish I could sneak out but can’t. Looking forward to Saturday!
