two posts for the price of one
post #1: why the new york mets will win the world series
1) simply put, in july of 2004, i attended a red sox game at fenway park. in october, they won the world series. in june of 2005, i attended a white sox game at new comiskey. in october THEY won the world series. in april of 2006, i attended a mets game at shea....this is an obvious trend.
(i realize that some of you may point out the error in my logic by reminding me that i also saw a cardinals game at new busch in july of this year. so i will offer more evidence.)
2) 2004: champion red sox' center fielder is former royal, johnny damon. 2005: champion white sox' right fielder (and world series MVP) is former royal jermaine dye. 2006: mets' center fielder (and future world series MVP) is former royal carlos beltran...again, the trend cannot be ignored.
3) the last two teams to knock the mets out of the post season, the yankees and the braves (lmao at both), are no longer a threat...start chilling the champagne.
4) because a team that i like HAS to win something someday. the failure just can't continue. (see this reason also in "reasons the mets WON'T win the world series.)
5) 20 years, baby. 20 years.
6) just to piss off gentry.
discuss.

failure has become a very disturbing trend itself...Royals since 85, Chiefs since super bowl IV in 1970, Jayhawks since 88
For me, having teams I don't like lose (NYY, STL, MIN, K-STATE) is quickly becoming 'not enough'
I really need one of my teams to win SOMETHING...ANYTHING other than the #1 pick in the draft.
All I have is the Nuggets...do you hear me??? The FREAKING NUGGETS!!!
HELP ME!!!!
If STL wins the WS...well, I'm not going to say what...but it involves N. Korea
Have you always been a Mets fan?? I have been inasmuch as I was a big collector of Dwight Gooden baseball cards...what a great investment that was...
hey dones, don't be a crack head hata.
as for the cardinals, i'm going to will them to win! yesterday i decided to break out the secret weapon. more info on such weapon to come!
jeff- i am afraid of said weapon.
dones- not always, necessarily. but definitely since the mid 90's...once my love for the CITY of new york coupled with my resurgent love for baseball and my hatred for the yankees...i was a big fan of the '99 and '00 team...plus they have my favorite outfielder now, so...
dale- the nuggets are your own fault for rooting for ANY nba team. i have a passable "liking" for the celts..but it goes no farther than that.
as far as the cardinals...well, i feel that (this series aside) this has been covered enough over the course of this blog.
the new royals counter made me laugh . . . out loud . . . hard
WITH THE SEASON ON THE LINE...HOW IN THE WORLD DO YOU STAND THERE WITH THE &#@$)^* BAT ON YOUR SHOULDER AND WATCH AS STRIKE THREE GOES RIGHT BY YOU? MAKE A #$*@^$ EFFORT YOU SPOILED MILLIONAIRE BALLPLAYER!!!!!
pretty wicked curveball.
just sayin'.
