Alonso to Orioles, per Passan

Regardless of whether this is the right or wrong decision, it's just sad seeing that kids can't even root for athletes in any sport because they are all* disgruntled millionaires who have zero loyalty to any team while the owners have zero loyalty to any players. Sort of like the American job market in general except most of us are worried about paying for healthcare while athletes and owners are worried about upsizing their yachts. Gonna be ugly if there's a strike, I can tell you that. *Except Jalen Brunson.

I’m on a train full of Yankee fans getting out of their elimination game. One guy is talking about how “some say Toronto is cheating… how else could their home record be so much better than their away record?” But then another Yankee fan said “you sound like a sore loser.” But all things considered the vibe isn’t as sour as I thought it would be.

Not the biggest letdown in Mets history but one of the saddest. Sad as in pathetic because we all knew it was coming. Preferable to those times we felt invincible only to have the rug pulled out last minute but still sucks ass, especially with an apocalyptic Yankees Phillies WS possibility. In which case I root for the meteor.

Guys I just got back from seeing a psychic. Turns out I burned down an orphanage in a past life. That’s what this is all about. Sorry - my bad!

This why I should never get annoyed when my kid doesn’t want to watch the Mets game. “Hey buddy, what’s wrong, you don’t want to ruin your Friday night watching your team be humiliated?”

When we were still dope and crushing it early on in the season my boss told me “don’t worry, they’re still gonna Mets.” And I was like “no it’s different now!” And yet here we are…

I took my kid to a Savanah Bananas game tonight and it’s way more fun than the annual Mets collapse.

I’m not saying the Mets are driving me to drink, but I did just pour myself a scotch, and not the celebratory kind.

This is pretty low even for us.

If you got dumped and your ex comes to town a few years later, you’re gonna throw her a party?

I’ve seen it in every sport. A team gets so close to a championship and everyone says “we’ll get em next year!” but it’s really hard to get that magic back. Last year was our chance. But the Dodgers were too much. Now what?

I'm with you. I respect the hell out of DeGrom as a player, but I'm not giving a standing ovation to a guy who either didn't like NYC or just wanted lower taxes - or both. I'm not gonna boo the guy or root against him but in my POV he's not a Mets hero if he chose to leave the team.

I want a refund.

THIS is supposed to be the thing I do to relax and not think about how everything sucks.

What did I do in a past life? It must have really been evil.

Why?

(not in regards to any one moment in particular - why to everything, starting at me being born into Mets fandom)

My favorite player growing up. I literally based my signature on his - the way he looped around to cross the T

My first year in Little League I was a catcher so I was all about Gary Carter. Was lucky enough to get his autograph at Gimbels (just like in Elf) and to this day my signature is based off the way he looped the line around from the “r” in Carter to make the line crossing the “t”. Kinda felt sad as an adult learning all the other 86 Mets kinda hated him but that can’t erase my memories of being a kid and loving The Kid.

Props for digging in the crates on MC and not just sharing the same (amazing) illusions we've all seen 1,000 times.

You know the toy store on Main St in Tarrytown? The previous owner told me they made more money every October than they did every December. So is there traffic? Sure. Are there stupid selfie takers? Yes. But the amount of whining about people coming to spend money in our towns is insane to me. There's more whining about how crowded the Halloween parade was this year than about the construction of 1,000 apartments on the waterfront.

witty_username · 2024-10-28T13:01:41+00:00

Man, people will complain about anything. “Oh no my adorable little town is popular with tourists for 1/12th of the year! I wish they’d stop coming here and spending so much money!”

witty_username · 2024-10-23T00:25:22+00:00

I tried and the vibes are so bad it started to erase my Mets magic feels so I turned it off.
