What Mets fans talk about when not talking about the actual games.
I have nothing new to add on this subject.
My only hope is that somewhere at Citi Field that someone puts together a book or press and dopey-blog clippings and this makes it to remind the Mets we're still angry about the entire 21st century.
Kazmir is 24
Kazmir is left handed
Kazmir is starting game 1 of the World Series
Sigh.

There's an article in the Ledger today about Steve Henderson (hitting coach of The Rays) and it mentions…
.."What has come to be called The Steve Henderson game.". Apparently Steve hit a home run and the Mets won, and as the article highlights this was exciting because it moved the Mets within one game of .500 and 6 of the Expos.
I'm pretty hip to the "Lee Mazzilli Mets" years but I don't recall this at all and have never heard of "The Steve Henderson Game.". Anyone?
I do vaguely remember being excited one year that they were playing .400 ball (that's a four) but that was the second half of the split 1981 season.
You kids have no idea how awful this franchise was, and how great that made 1984. I still hate the Cubs. Look it up youngins.

I’m a little younger than the franchise, and I only remember the seats at Shea in their final orange/blue/green/red configuration, but I’ve seen glimpses here and there of the original seat colors.
Here they are in a nice color photo of a half-empty stadium!

Sorry baseball, I'm just not going to watch.
Last night should have been a must-see but after 6 hours of lame football it just wasn't enough to keep my attention.
Of all things that got me to give up it was Chip Caray saying, "It's already the third inning!" (really) and then I said, "It's already 9 o'clock!" so I turned it off.
Good luck to the Rays but I'm not watching. Enjoy starting games at 8:30 to sell commercial time to Barack and to make sure fans in Las Vegas can see Philly and Tampa.
It makes no sense. Half the population lives in the eastern time zone. I'll read about the games the next day.
Go Rays.
