I know it’s a different year and a different team, but I’m even prouder now of our Mets for taking the Dodgers to 6 games in the ‘24 NLCS

I feel bad for them, tbh

Something is telling me that the World Series is going to be … less great. I hope I’m wrong about this but probably M’s/Jays will be the postseason high water mark.

I’m hoping the Brew Crew takes encouragement from what the Jays did last night. (I like the Mariners a lot, too - I am just saying that a team down 0-2 brought out the can of whoop-a$$ instead of just trundling off stage left….)

Yes. But when key players (enormously fun and talented though they were) are … living in the edge … it was probably inevitable.

You did! I’m proud of you for standing your ground. It’s easy to be a Yankees fan. It takes character to be a Mets fan. :-)

My husband is a Yankees fan but not a fan of the Michael Kay BS this year. He (my husband, not Michael Kay) is a very good man and we just work around our baseball fandom differences!

I think it’s not all that happy for the baseball fans among them ….

Mariners - because they’ve never been to the World Series, not because I have anything against the Tigers.

The only good thing about having your team miss the playoffs is the way it obviates what would otherwise have been a near nervous breakdown of anxiety over how your team will do in the playoffs. (Thanks, 2025 Mets!)

Hang in there and good luck tonight

It’s going to be painful seeing him wearing another team’s jersey.
