Well that was fun/sucked. The roller coaster season was so cathartic that I have a feeling it is going to take us all a while to decompress. CitiField was rocking last night. Fans were going nuts. Harvey looked like he was going to change his narrative for the season if only his coin didn’t come up the scarred side up when flipping to see if he came back in the ninth. Murphy. You all know we love him here at MP, but the dude does so much better when he isn’t thinking. You can tell his brain was going full out YIP on him. Murph murphed when he needed to make plays.
Colactus making some weird bullpen moves throughout the series that still baffle me.

Cespedes. You guys were all thinking I’m nuts saying he wasn’t a guy you want to sign long term when he was hitting his bombs after he got traded but there was a reason he kept getting traded and I could also see how he wasn’t always hustling. The stories I had heard about him off the field also didn’t make me too high on him either.

d’Arnaud- please, please work on your throws to second behind the plate. The Royals ran at will on you. I have faith in you man. You are going to be a solid player once you do that and stay healthy

Thor really stepped up and did what he needed to do. He really has matured over the season and playoffs and now looks to be a “major leaguer”.

Even with the loss of the World Series, I had a great time this whole season. This was my first time I was able to go to the playoffs in my adult life. Got to hang with a lot of people I call good friends almost every weekend. Got to travel across there country with the7linearmy and I am just happy the Mets got into playoffs and I really can’t wait until next year.

All of us fans can hold out heads high knowing our team did way more then any of us thought they would.

Let’s Go Mets!

I loved that Syndergaard showed some attitude by backing off Escobar with the first pitch from the plate. That’s the grit this team has needed for years. The quotes from Thor are even as good. “This is my plate, not theirs”, I love it. Wright coming through with maybe a World Series moment or two last night. Granderson hitting that timely home run. You could tell that the Mets were going to win last night from the beginning even down 1-0 then 3-2. You knew Familia had this on lockdown last night

The atmosphere out there was great. The fans showed up in force and I haven’t been to an event that electric in forever. To be at these playoff games and now the World Series has been one of the greatest experiences of my life. I am so glad I got to be there and not stuck at home watching it on TV because I don’t find going to games fun.

I still can’t believe how the stadium looks when its full. I am still shooting crowd shots but so many people were using their phones last night that I couldn’t publish them. I can’t wait to get back for tonight’s game.

I’m ready….

Happy Halloween folks… Time for a treats tonight for us and hopefully the Mets have more tricks for KC

This has been making the rounds the last few days and as a wrestling fan I can not not put this up…

 

You had your shot. You said that you have more fun at Soccer games then games at Citi Field. You said you don’t like to travel from your deck all the way in NJ. You said you rather watch the Mets on said deck with your slingbox and tweet. You said you don’t need your ticket plan anymore. You thought you were going to ride your cousin’s coat tails into the playoffs. You thought wrong. I told you, don’t look at me for tickets.

You and many others had plenty of opportunities to have gotten play off tickets. You guys gave up on your ticket plans. You guys said meh, I know people who will get me in to the games. You know if you weren’t such a grump and anti going to games all season, you might have had a chance at tickets. The fans that have been going all season long don’t need a guy that has been complaining about driving to Citi Field from his house in NJ all year. All I remember is you saying I can’t wait for this team to get to the playoffs in the past. You were the last one to get on the Playoff Train this year..

It’s really a shame that you were once a powerful Jedi that has fallen to the Dark Side of the Force.
