“Two years ago for the first time in my life I met a Mets fan that was actually born in this country; the rest are nanny-state immigrants from Europe or Latin America.”

American born and raised (former) Mets fan here. I got hooked on them back in day when we used to get channel WWOR here in MA on cable and as a child I was intrigued at their suckiness (NL-style vs. the Red Sox AL-style of suck).

I was at game 4 of the 1986 World Series in Boston with my Mets hat and jacket on.

I was happy to see Davey Johnson win NL Manager of the Year last week.

dreadful. I was in Brooklyn when Sciraldi-Gedman-BB had the game 6 meltdown. Sickening.

I was planning on getting to CitiField this past SEPT for my first visit. Got too busy. Try again in ‘13. Ever get to a Binghamton game in the area, like Portland, ME? Or Buffalo vs Pawsox? Or Brooklyn @ Norwich?

Sox are still getting some use out of Pedro Beato, which is what Kelly Shoppach was worth. Does the name Lenny DiNardo ring a bell?

Very funny! Now I’ve met 2 people (though I don’t know if it counts if you’re a “former” fan). Oh what the heck; TWO Mets fans born in this country...

: )
