Personally, I'm pulling for the Mets for a couple of reasons

 

1) My wife got tickets to all the games that remain (she's their traffic engineer) and since she's studying for her PE, the only time I'll see her when she's not sleeping, studying, or eating the next month is at Shea Stadium

 

2) Oh, she'll get a WS ring too if they go far enough

 

3) It'll shut Yankees fans up for at least 12 hours, although they're already going on about how the Mets couldn't win anything without a Yankee leading them.

 

4) A Mets WS win is bound to increase the value of my autographed Steve Trachsel bat

The real question is, which team do you want to see Hendry attempt to emulate (although poorly) this offseason?

 

Go Mets.

That's like asking someone whom they prefer - The Taliban or Al Qaeda?

 

My favorite example is Stalin or Hitler.

 

And I'm not pulling for either. I want the A's to win but I'll pull for the Tigers if they beat the A's.

I will NEVER root for the Cardinals or the Mets. No self-respecting Cubs fan ever should.

 

Sorry, I wasn't alive in 1969...the last time the Mets cost the Cubs anything.

2004? Victor Diaz...

 

I prefer to think of LaTroy giving up that game with the assist to Mercker.

Bingo.

 

To me, the Mets are just another team. I hold no grudge or ill will toward them.

I don't like them because they're from New York. I can't pull for a New York team.

69 is only part of the story. They were the Cubs big rival until realignment.

I don't harbor ill will towards the Mets either. On the contrary, with Jose Reyes and David Wright among others, they're a fun team to watch.

They are probably the only New York team that I can tolerate.
