It led to a comment like this from one prominent blogger who wrote last week: Happy that the Mets had won, although it a homer was by my 25th favorite Met, I rolled over, hit off and drifted off to dreams of updating this post in the morning.What kind of message is that?

Dear Joe,
To answer the direct question, the message was that I went to bed early, and that the Mets had won on a home run by my 25th favorite Met. There were 24 other players who could have homered that would have made me even happier.
Sometimes I just don’t enjoy a player. There is a chapter in my eBook about John Franco. Other Mets I did not enjoy include Jeff Kent, Ryan Thompson, Lastings Milledge, Doug Sisk, Garry Templeton, and Bobby Valentine (manager version, I liked the player.)
Which Met should be my 25th favorite? Am I allowed to like some more than others?
