Phillies Driving Mets Fans To Brink Of Sanity
 |
This really is my first post here. Im 31 and right along with the most of you guys Im a ‘take it way to seriously die-hard’….Since this month has started I have broken up with my GF over this nonsense, and my stomach wont stop churning. Basically the last 2 weeks have been the worst of my life. I realize that Matt probably wont read this, but to whomever does I just wanna say that this site has been cathartic to me and helped me deal with the craziest, wackiest month of my life. It sounds like an AA Meeting, but knowing there are others like me helps. Just like the rest of you I keep going to bed just wanting this to be over, one way or another. Not caring if they lose or win at this point…
And it goes on like that. It'll be okay, though; the nine strangers you root for not playing so well isn't the end of the world. Unless the Phillies end up blowing it, in which case it will be.
Let them know [Metsblog]

I knew you'd like that Newsday cover!
I feel as if I've contributed something now....
And just imagine how us Yankee fans will feel if the Mets don't make it.....
Ahhh sweet justice!

did you notice the phine phine philly phan who posted on there?
"Even after all of the injuries the Phitan Phills went through they still find themselves tied for the NL East with the mets. However, this will not last for long because the mets will at least lose to D-train on Sunday while the Phills will sweep with ease….wait at least you still have the giants and jets to root for…o wait no you don’t?? E-A-G-L-E-S!!! EAGLES"
faaaaaaantastic.

Wow, it's strange that there's someone (probably a youngster) who hasn't had sports mediocrity beaten into him so that disappointing chokes bounce right off.
Wait, didn't the Mets suck, like, 2 years ago?

I really love when people go onto comments sections and get really angry about sports teams. Especially if somebody goes to another team's messageboard and vents. There's something so childish, yet fulfilling, about it.

They had some soundbites with Phillies fans on the news last night. God they were strange looking. However, they were not as good as the grandma Mets fan who promised to go to the Mets dugout and shoot them all in the unlikely event the team loses. I am amazed WNBC put that on air.

I've been looking for photos of Alycia Lane in a bikini. Do you have any?

Wherein art thou good, but to taste sack and drink it? Wherein neat and cleanly, but to carve a capon and eat it? Wherein cunning, but in craft? Wherein crafty but in villainy? Wherein villainous, but in all things? Wherein worthy but in nothing?' Douche-nut ALB?

I think I tasted sack and drank it once. It was while I was eating a capon.

What a dumbass. I can see breaking up with your g/f over photos of Alycia Lane in a bikini. I mean, she gives me a choice between her and the photos, I'll take the photos any day. But to break up over the fucking Mets? Hell no. That's just dumb.
Besides, the Phillies will probably still find a way to screw it up anyway.
Cheer up, dumbass.
