Mets

I figure there have to be fellow sufferers here, demographically-speaking.

I have love-hated this team for 54 seasons, now. LFGM.

Yup. One of the few things I inherited from my Dad's Mom Gussie, who was a Mets fan from Day 1 in 1962 because the Brooklyn Dodgers had broken her heart. 1986 feels like a loooooooooong time ago now.

I've had a lot of happiness since 1986. Mostly because while I have been a fan since 1971, the late 70s permanently froze my Mets thermometer so I absolutely expect to lose every game.

I can top your pain. I'm a Mariners fan....
At least you all have 5 World Series appearances, as recent as 2015, to look back on, and 2 WS titles. The M's have 0 WS appearances. Yup, 0. And our most recent playoff appearance came after a 21 year drought.

Sigh.....

Frasier: So you're not in Seattle because of the Mariners?
Sam Malone: Believe me, no ballplayer is in Seattle because of the Mariners.

I'm old enough to consider the Mariners an expansion team (but young enough not to consider the Mets one). So by definition they can't have a chanpionship drought.

If we're playing Topper, my AL team has been the Mariners since expansion.

But shut your whore mouth; we're in first despite hitting even worse than the Mets.

This is the correct answer.

Mets, Padres, Nats, Rangers, Brewers -- not expansion.

Mariners, Blue Jays -- expansion.

Dbacks, Rockies, all of Florida -- fake.

This is actually a more painful season than most, despite the callouses of age.

6 losses when leading after 8 innings. No other team has more than 2.

The Pirates tend to blow their leads in the 7th and 8th.

That’s marginally less painful

we make it up in volume

Mets have a chance to lose on our third continent today!

If anyone is being driven crazy by MLBTV on Chrome with a circle of Sisyphus, it came right up for me on Edge (Sucks, but not this time).

Clay Holmes will not have a 0.00 ERA this season.

Juan Soto OBP currently 1.000.

Clay Holmes will likely not have a < 1.00 ERA this season.

Well, the pitching held through the first series, anyway.

Manaea gone until mid-May now, because of course.

i think pitching will be fine.

hitting who knows

Suboptimal start for Kodai.

Love the BJs logo, hate their font.

The Mets continue to play their 7th inning stretch song about an insatiable 19th century Italian girl who can't stop fucking every man in town.

It's a choice.

Tylor Megill: three emergency spot starts in openers, 16 IP, 3 wins, 0 runs allowed.

We're the Colorado Yankees tonight.

Most wins in MLB since 2021: Zach Wheeler. May the Wilpons burn in hell forever.

Nah. I like them. (Go Phils!)

You risk some of us writing more on the miracles of this century by the Sox.

We believe two possibly confusing MLB team names are best put as the Sox and the White Sox.

The Chicago team had the name first. My reflex is to think of them whenever anyone says “Sox.”

Leave it to Red Sox fans to make everything about them.

Please continue with your non-sensical Mets therapy blather, Trotsky.
