(1) I can't stand Billy Joel. I don't know why Citifield adopted that song as a "go to" this season. It has zero thematic resonance. Maybe there's a deal? The Wilpons need money.

(2) I am a diehard Mets fan. The team has accomplished more, and more quickly, than I imagined this season. Man, I want this Series!

(3) It's impossible to hate the Royals. They're a gutsy team with a class act for a manager and great fans. Kauffman Stadium is a great park. The Royals have been waiting even longer than the Mets for a Series and they came so close last year.

1985 for the Royals versus 1986 versus the Mets. It's a push.
