You're just saying that because the Mets are ranked second.

The Mets wouldn't be ranked second if they weren't 10-2.

Actually, when I posted it, the Mets were 3 games ahead in their division but ranked something like 12th because they had played nobody but Washington and Florida.

Conservativism in civil society; progressivism in politics -- the unbeatable combination.
