Mets Are The NL East Champs

 


What can I say about this season. The Mets start out strong with an eleven game win streak then look like they are going to be the same old Mets. Injuries happen to Wright, Blevins, d’Arnaud. Collins has to trot out minor league lineups disguised as major leaguers. Mejia gets busted for PEDs again.

Alderson makes trades for Uribe, Johnson, Cespedes, Reed, and O’Flaherty. But hold up.

The Mets trade for Gomez from the Brewers before they get Cespedes and rescind the trade. The world is ending the Mets fans go crazy about the non trade. Then the Mets pull the Trigger on getting Cespedes. He goes on a tear the lowly Mets that couldn’t have expected. Mets fans get excited.

They start to believe again.

Fans that have stopped going to games because of the “Boycott Wilpons” start showing up.

The bandwagon fans start showing up.

Attendance at Citi Field grows.

Mets magic number starts to shrink, fans get anxious. The Mets lost two of three to the Yankees and Braves. Mets fans are biting their nails. The Nationals keep losing. The Mets magic number keeps shrinking. The Mets fans are now chewing on their nails. They haven’t been this close to the playoffs in almost a decade. The Mets go to play the Reds. Mets win Friday night the magic number goes down to one! Mets fans have no idea how to handle this. There is a sense of victory coming. The collapse of 2007 doesn’t look anymore. The fans know the playoffs are in the Mets grasp.

Mets fans make their way to Cincinnati to see the Mets clinch. The Mets run away with the game and the Mets clinch the NL East title. The joy of fans can not be described.

I received texts so many texts from my fellow fans and Mets family that I thought my phone was going to vibrate itself apart. It felt like New Year’s Eve when people text and call you to wish you well for the New Year. I was glued to the post game celebration. I still couldn’t believe it. The happiness I felt was growing in me like the Grinch’s heart. I went out last night to Modells on the way to dinner and grabbed some post season merchandise. This is real. Not a dream.

From going to Opening Day down in Washington DC, traveling all over with the7linearmy, throwing out the first pitch in May, the many home outings with the7linearmy, winning “Picture This- Star Wars Edition”, and hanging with my friends at various games and events. I couldn’t ask for a better season. Wait I can! I’m greedy. I want the damn World Series Championship sitting in the Mets Museum next to the ones from 1969 and 1986.

Let’s Go Mets!! Let’s Go Mets!! Let’s Go Mets!!!!

Mediagoon’s Mets Musings(falling skies, Harvey Dent, The7line)


I am going to steal the format style of Shannon’s last post.
 
 The Mets Playoff hopes
 
 Calm down all of you who are freaking out over two losses. The Mets were due. They were super hot and the law of averages would imply they were due for a loss or two. Of course the losses would come at the hands of the Marlins because that’s what the Marlins do to the Mets. They spoil good times.
 
 In my head I was thinking good they got the losses out of the way now, so I won’t feel like they “will” lose against the Yankees.
 
 Matt Harvey. I love how everyone is calling him Two-Face Matt Harvey “Dent” now. I came up with that back in spring trading because for some reason Shannon and I had a feeling something would happen where people starting disliking him. Did I know it would be the innings limit. Nope. I thought it would be something media driven, not agent driven.
 
 The 7line
 
 I am sure you are all aware that I am friends with Darren. For you haters out there. He is not what you say he is. He works his ass off and he tries to give Mets fans awesome products and great outings. He worked hard to get the playoff ticket opportunity for the7linearmy. He tried to make it fair for everyone and in business not everyone is going to be happy. Just think of all the times you tried to buy tickets for a concert or an event through ticketmaster and everything sells out in a few mins. Not the promoters fault. Just a high demand. It happens.
 
 The part of it that was horrible, were that some of the people who bought tickets put them up on stubhub right away for triple the face value. Yeah I know “capitalism”. The7linearmy wasn’t built on that. I’ve been going to outings since the one on the Party Deck. I have missed the Bronx outing and SF. I’ve hit every other one. And do you know what I have gotten from all those outings? A whole bunch of friends who I never would have met(probably) if it wasn’t for The7line outings. It’s supposed to be to cheer with fellow fans that are diehards that love to cheer with each other. We look out for each other and for someone who betrays that family vibe by putting tickets up after Darren in the email said,”Please don’t by them just to resell them on stubhub”, just not cool. The The7linearmy is not an exclusive club. Anyone can join it if you buy a ticket to an outing whether home or away. Just be cool to each other. And Darren, keep doing what you are doing. The good you do for fans outweighs the cranky people who just don’t get it.
 
 Subway Series-
 
 I am excited for this weekend. I’ll be there Sat and Sun. Sunday I am going to be grouchy because it’s a night game. I hate you ESPN.
 
 Let’s Go Mets.
